This is why our clinic is proud to work with and provide Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge and Southern Ontario patients with a clean makeup alternative–glo minerals. Not only are glo minerals free of parabens, artificial dyes and fragrance, they contain antioxidants to protect … Continue reading »

Obagi hyper pigmentation treatment. Sun worshipper or not, all of us see the repercussions of sun exposure appearing on our skin at some point.
