Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty

Non-surgical rhinoplasty uses dermal filler to change the appearance of the nose without surgery. It can smooth a dorsal bump, lift a drooping tip, disguise an apparent deviation or add definition to a flat bridge. Because filler adds volume rather than removing it, it camouflages irregularities rather than making the nose smaller.

The appointment takes about half an hour under topical numbing, and the result is visible immediately with very little downtime. Most hyaluronic acid fillers placed in the nose last somewhere between six and eighteen months before the treatment needs repeating. The nose has a dense and unforgiving blood supply, so this is a treatment to have from an experienced injector who can recognise and manage a vascular complication. If you want the nose made smaller, or the underlying bone and cartilage changed, surgical rhinoplasty is the procedure that does that.

Exilis Ultra

Exilis Ultra is a non-surgical treatment that combines radiofrequency and ultrasound to tighten loose skin and reduce small pockets of fat. The handpiece heats the deeper layers of skin to stimulate collagen while cooling the surface, so treatment is usually comfortable and needs no downtime. It is used on both the face and the body, most often along the jawline, abdomen and upper arms.

Results appear gradually over the weeks following a course of sessions as new collagen forms, and they are subtle rather than dramatic. Patients wanting a deeper lift from fewer sessions sometimes compare it with Ultherapy, which uses focused ultrasound to reach the deeper support layer. How much tightening is achievable depends on how much laxity is present, and pronounced sagging is usually better addressed surgically. A consultation is the way to set realistic expectations, and Beautifi can help you compare qualified providers and financing.

FaceTite

FaceTite is a minimally invasive treatment that tightens skin and reduces small pockets of fat along the jawline, chin and cheeks. A thin probe is placed beneath the skin and paired with an external electrode, so radiofrequency energy passes through the tissue between them. That heat contracts the tissue and stimulates collagen while liquefying fat, which is then drawn off through the same probe.

It is done under local anaesthetic and sits between non-surgical tightening and surgery in both result and recovery. Patients with more pronounced sagging are usually better served by a facelift, which repositions the deeper tissue rather than shrinking it. Swelling and bruising for a week or two are normal, and the final contour settles over several months as collagen builds. A consultation is the way to tell whether your degree of laxity suits it, and Beautifi can help you compare qualified providers and financing.

Facial Rejuvenation

Facial rejuvenation is a group of surgical and non-surgical treatments that restore facial appearance and soften the visible effects of ageing. Neck lifts, brow lifts and forehead lifts sit at the surgical end, while Botox, dermal fillers, chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing are among the most popular non-surgical options. Most plans combine two or three treatments rather than relying on one.

Because the term covers so much, costs in Canada range widely, from around $1,000 for a single injectable session to $25,000 for surgery. Non-surgical treatments usually need repeating every few months while surgical results last years, so the cheaper option is not always the cheaper plan. Many patients start with botox injections before deciding whether surgery is worth it. With Beautifi, you can pay in fixed monthly payments starting from $26 per month, with no impact to your credit score just for applying.

Fat Transfers

Fat transfer takes fat from one part of the body, purifies it, and injects it where more volume is wanted. It adds fullness to the face, breasts or buttocks using the patient’s own tissue rather than an implant or a synthetic filler. Because the graft needs a blood supply to survive, only part of what is injected is retained long term, and surgeons usually overfill to allow for that.

How much of the graft settles varies between patients, so a second session is sometimes needed to reach the intended result. For smaller facial volume changes without surgery, many patients weigh it against injectable filler, which works immediately but is temporary. Recovery involves two sites, the area the fat was taken from and the area it was placed, and both need time to settle. A consultation is the way to judge whether you have enough donor fat and which areas suit grafting, and Beautifi can help you compare qualified providers and financing.

Forever Young BBL

Forever Young BBL is an intense pulsed light treatment used to reduce age spots, sun damage, redness and broken capillaries. Light is absorbed by pigment and by the small blood vessels near the surface, which breaks them down so the body can clear them over the following weeks. A session takes 30 to 60 minutes, needs no anaesthetic, and most people go back to normal activity the same day.

It works on discolouration rather than texture or laxity, so it is usually done as a course of treatments with maintenance sessions once or twice a year. Research on this device has reported changes in the expression of genes associated with ageing, though that is early work rather than a claim you should choose treatment on. Where the concern is lines and texture instead of pigment, a resurfacing treatment such as microdermabrasion addresses a different layer, and a consultation can establish which fits.

Fractional Firming

Fractional firming is a non-surgical treatment that uses fractionated radiofrequency energy to tighten loose skin and smooth uneven texture. The energy reaches the skin in a grid pattern, so treated zones sit beside untreated ones and healing runs quicker than with a fully ablative approach. That controlled injury prompts new collagen to form over the weeks that follow. It is used on the face and on body areas where skin has lost firmness after weight change or pregnancy.

Expect a course of sessions rather than one visit, with mild redness and swelling for a few days afterwards. Cost varies with the size of the area and the number of sessions a provider recommends. Patients comparing options often look at Morpheus8, which drives radiofrequency deeper through microneedles and suits more pronounced laxity. A consultation will establish which depth of treatment fits your skin, and Beautifi can help you compare qualified providers and pay monthly.

Full-Arch Dental Reconstruction

Full-arch dental reconstruction replaces every tooth in an upper or lower arch with a fixed bridge anchored on dental implants. It suits people who have lost most of their teeth, or whose remaining teeth are failing, and who want something fixed rather than a removable denture. Four to six implants are placed into the jawbone and carry the bridge, so the restoration is supported by bone rather than resting on the gums. Treatment usually runs across several appointments over a few months while the implants integrate.

Costs in Canada generally run $28,000 to $30,000 per arch and depend on the number of implants, the materials chosen and whether bone grafting is needed first. Many patients compare it against dental implants (All on 6), which takes the same fixed approach on a defined six-implant protocol. Imaging at consultation is what confirms whether your jawbone can support implants, and Beautifi can spread the cost over monthly payments.

OncoFertility

Oncofertility sits where oncology meets reproductive medicine. Chemotherapy, radiation and some cancer surgeries can reduce or end fertility, and the window to act is usually before treatment begins. It covers the options that keep the choice open: freezing eggs, sperm, embryos or ovarian tissue ahead of time.

With survival rates rising, fertility preservation is now discussed as part of routine cancer care rather than as an afterthought. Cost varies widely with which option suits you, and provincial coverage matters a great deal: OHIP funds most fertility preservation for oncology patients in Ontario, while other provinces differ, and several clinics subsidise cancer patients directly. Ask your oncologist for a fertility referral as early as you can, because timing is usually the real constraint rather than money. Where fertility is a concern outside a cancer diagnosis, female fertility preservation uses the same techniques on a planned timeline.

Era Elite®

Era Elite is a laser skin resurfacing treatment used for fine lines, sun damage, pigmentation, enlarged pores and scarring. The laser removes microscopic columns of damaged skin and heats the tissue beneath, prompting the body to lay down new collagen as it heals. A session takes 30 to 60 minutes and most people need no anaesthetic beyond a topical cream.

Expect about five to seven days of redness and flaking while the surface heals, so it is worth planning the treatment around anything you have in the diary. How many sessions you need depends on how much sun damage and scarring is present, and results continue to develop for a few months as collagen remodels. Where the concern is pigment rather than texture, a treatment such as Lumecca targets it more directly, and a consultation can establish which is the better fit.

Clitoral Hood Reduction

Clitoral hood reduction, also called hoodoplasty, trims excess folds of skin covering the clitoris to reduce bulk or irritation. It is an outpatient procedure, usually performed under local anaesthetic with sedation, and takes under two hours. The surgeon reshapes the hood skin only, leaving the clitoris and its nerve supply untouched.

It is most often carried out at the same time as a labiaplasty, because the two areas sit together and treating one alone can leave the contour looking uneven. Most people take about a week off work and avoid strenuous exercise for four to six weeks. Comfort, sensation and appearance differ from patient to patient, so a consultation with a surgeon experienced in genital surgery is the right next step.

Gastric Balloon

A gastric balloon is a temporary, non-surgical weight loss device placed in the stomach through an endoscope. One to three soft silicone balloons are inflated inside the stomach, leaving less room for food so you feel full sooner and eat less. They stay for about six months and are removed the same way, with no incisions and no permanent change to your anatomy. It is generally offered to people with a lower body mass index than bariatric surgery requires.
