Set up six years ago, AQUA Med Spa is a premier medical spa facility that specialises in non-surgical, cosmetic treatments for men and women. The team of specialists is headed by Dr. Davindra Armogan, a highly qualified cosmetic physician who oversees every client’s treatment personally. And the idea behind setting up this one-of-a-kind centre “was to have a facility that would provide the highest quality of non-surgical cosmetics medicine services in a professional setting with a significant medical basis for all of the treatments and assessments,” shares Dr. Armogan.

 Taking its name from water for its beauty and power, the Spa brings medical expertise and cosmetic awareness together under one roof. Using advanced technology at its location in Mississauga, the facility invests heavily in research and updating the skills of all those who work there. Dr. Armogan adds, “AQUA offers cutting edge services because most of our equipment and technologies come from Europe and Europe is approximately ten years ahead of North America with regard to cosmetic procedures. We keep ahead of the pack by constantly reviewing the latest medical research from around the world and attending conferences around the world especially those in Europe.” All of the skin care products used at the Spa are called cosmeceuticals, which are medicine grade skin care treatments that have been approved by Health Canada for treatment of various skin conditions. Addressing all health and safety concerns, Dr. Armogan reiterates, “These products are more potent and more effective than what is commonly available at the local drug store for example, and are regulated by Health Canada. They are in fact safer than what is available in the drug store and therefore issues about safety and possible side effects and long-term issues are actually less of a concern when using these high quality products.”

   While the Spa focuses exclusively on corrective skin treatments, its mandate is very clearly on overall health and well-being. Staff at AQUA are focused on providing not only aesthetic benefit but also improving the health of the skin and this holds especially true for brides and grooms, who are making a big investment in time and finances, to look their best on their wedding day. For those soon-to-be-married, Dr.  Armogan shares valuable advice, “Every single patient at AQUA is guaranteed personal, individual treatment. I recommend that the bride or groom do their initial consultation approximately three to six months before the wedding date so that various treatments can start and have time to work and be effective.”

So what can you expect when you head into AQUA Med Spa? An initial skin care consultation would involve an assessment by a qualified Medical Skin Care Associate, an analysis using our advanced skin analysis system and a scientific measurement of th moisture, dryness and roughness of the skin; all of this in combination with the clinical assessment is performed to able us at AQUA to provide accurate professional recommendations that are uniquely suited to the individual patient. Dr. Armogan reminds all potential clients that “the most important thing in dealing with any problem is to do a complete assessment and make an accurate diagnosis once this has been done then a personalized recommendation program be set up that reflects unique needs of each person.”
