70 Yorkville Avenue, Unit LR4
416-920-9998

Glow Medi Spa respects that clients are unique, catering to their individual needs based on the professional assessment of cosmetic physician Dr. Diane C Wong in an office designed to provide comfortable, customized cosmetic care.

SDTC: What types of services do you offer?
We offer skin treatments to brighten and exfoliate the skin such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and medical grade skin care products.
We also have a variety of lasers and light treatments such as fraxel, IPL (intense pulse light), and radiofrequency skin tightening. Laser hair removal and vein treatments are also popular as well as a wide variety of acne treatments.

SDTC: What is your most popular service?
Soft Lift, which is a combination of Botox and Juvederm treatments to give a natural, rejuvenated appearance.

SDTC: What might set Glow Medi Spa apart from the competition?
Customer service is our number one priority. To us, customer service means providing personal attention that lets you know that we believe that you are special.

SDTC: What’s special about the promotions you’re offering during Beautylicious?
Beautylicious gave us a chance to reach to the public, to meet new clients, to introduce them to the highest quality of medical grade equipment and products that they may not have known about previously. Our promotions for Beautylicious are the best that we have ever offered since we knew it was a good opportunity to reach and meet new clients.

SDTC: Why should a potential new customer take advantage of the Beautylicious price-point promotions and try a different salon than the one they traditionally go to?
Many clients have never been exposed to medical skin care clinics before. They may have been used to spa treatments such as regular facials but didn’t realize that for the same price, they could have a medical grade chemical peel that gives far superior results with no pain or downtime. We have priced these items so low that there is really no reason not to give it a try.

Their Beautylicious promotional pricing includes:

$25 Laser hair removal: underarm or upper lip only.
$75 Chemical peel.
$125 Skin Tightening with infra-red light treatment
Special 10% off Botox and Juvaderm dermal fillers with Dr. Diane Wong, M.D.
