"I can’t say enough about Skin Effect! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warmth and a welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. You’re not just a client here—you’re truly treated like family by the entire team. I had the absolute privilege of seeing Maggie for my initial consult and subsequent PRP under eye treatments, and I couldn’t be more impressed! She embodies everything you’d want in a ‘Skin Boss’—beyond knowledgeable, passionate, skilled, considerate, genuine…I could go on! She took the time to understand my goals, provided expert guidance, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the consultation and treatment process. Maggie’s dedication to client care and top-tier treatments is unmatched. If you’re looking for a premier medical spa that combines expertise with a personal touch and exceptional service, this is it!"

"Recently I had a chance to do the Morpheus8 treatment with Maggie and it was truly amazing .From the moment I walked into the clinic I felt welcomed and comfortable. The treatment was pretty much painless and noticed immediately the overall improvement of my skin . It was glowing .3 Days later my skin looks smoother and overall healthier. I can't wait to see its full potential . Thank you Maggie !"

"I got my lips done for the first time ever! I was able to put 100% trust in Maggie, she was so thorough and I appreciated her walking me through the entire process. Maggie took the time to listen to exactly what I was hoping for and I couldn’t be happier with the results. You can tell she is so passionate about what she does! Highly recommend!!!"

"I had an amazing experience today at Skin Effect in Fort Saskatchewan. Maggie is extremely knowledgable and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed during my Morpheus procedure. Sydney was my injector. She took her time and explained everything she was doing. She was very pleasant and went above and beyond to make sure I was completely satisfied. I would 100% recommend these two ladies at Skin Effect in Fort Saskatchewan."

"I can’t say enough great things about Shannon!!! Ever since I started seeing her my skin has completely transformed. I get asked about my skincare routine because my complexion looks so fresh and glowing. The facials are not only relaxing but truly effective, and the injectables have given me such natural, beautiful results—I feel more confident than ever! Shannon is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and detail-oriented. She takes the time to understand exactly what I want and tailors each treatment to my needs. Whether it’s a facial, Botox, or fillers, I always leave feeling like the best version of myself If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your skin and delivers amazing results, I highly recommend Shannon!!!"

"Maggie has made my visit comfortable and relaxing. I was not sure about the Morpheus 8 treatment (skeptical me ) but she reassured me that if the treatment is preformed by an experienced qualified nurse that is confident in the outcome it shows great results . I have had my second treatment pain level 1/10 to 3 / 10 as the numbing gel does its job , first treatment there was more redness and took a day or so longer to heal than the second but with the second my skin looks and feels fresher and has a glow . Thank you Maggie I have recommended you to friends"

"I had a wonderful experience at Skin Effect! I felt incredibly welcomed, comfortable and well taken care of. I’m SO happy with my results— the entire experience start to finish truly exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Skin Effect to anyone looking for quality results. Overall, the work they do is absolutely outstanding! Thank you!"

"I have never felt more loved than sitting in the chair at skin effects with Sydney. I love the attention and knowledge she puts towards my concerns to help come up with a plan to make me feel like my most confident self. She suggested doing something I would have never thought to and the results were absolutely amazing. Sydney and Maggie also suggested other services to help with my skin goals and took the time to introduce me to other ladies within the clinic to chat further. They share so much knowledge and reasons behind what is happening within our bodies that you 1000% know you are in trusted hands. It is clear that every single person there truly desires one thing… you to feel loved and to the best version of yourself. 100/10 recommend!"

"Went to Urban Spa because my usual place was booked and had heard good things! I went for a gel manicure on Saturday (it’s now Tuesday) with a couple of girlfriends. Although the aestheticians were all lovely, the quality of work was severely lacking for my manicure. I have two chipped nails, fuzz that was cured into my nail and dents in some of the others. To top it off, it was over $70 before tip. My girlfriends enjoyed their services, but did not realize the added fee to add gel polish for pedicures was $19 (!) and their services totalled over $100 before tip. Overall, we were very disappointed and won’t return."

"I would recommend going to any spa but THE URBAN SPA! The day of my Brazilian in their office I booked for a maintenance appointment. Then they changed it to a full Brazilian without my knowledge. I cancelled for personal reasons and because of the dishonesty and to be clear within 48 hours! I was given 3 options for the cancelation even though I was within the time frame to cancel or I would be charged. So I chose to keep my appointment. I was then told that for explaining myself about this being a maintenance not a full Brazilian I was accused of making their staff cry!!? All I did was share the facts and explain myself. I am a mother of 3 and have a right to suggest that if a staff “ Carly” booking day of my original appointment wasn’t aware of the timing to book a Brazilian maintenance that this should certainly be their staff member’s mistake not mine. Instead I was told I would not be charged and to take my business elsewhere. Any business that cannot accept an error is not honest and isn’t a good one. I am happy to take my business elsewhere and wouldn’t be caught dead there again in their tiny spa that makes you feel uncomfortable anyways."

"Doesn't look like much on the outside but they know what they are doing inside. Very calming when you go inside and I haven't been so relaxed for a long time. I had a Swedish massage and the Urban facial and there are no words to describe how amazing it was. I had Nick for my massage and my facial from Sarah. They were professional but personable as well as fun to chat with. They made you feel comfortable and relaxed in the capable hands. Sarah described each process of the facial so you knew what to expect. For someone who has never had a facial before I really enjoyed it and would recommend for some who is just starting out. And Nick's magic hands loosened all the tight spots. Thanks again and I definitely recommend this place and look forward to coming here again soon. Julie Hendsbee"

"I had booked a massage on Dec 4th for Dec 5 via the online booking engine - received 2 emails shortly thereafter confirming my appointment. When I arrived for appointment tonight after driving 30 minutes to get there, the receptionist stated that my appointment had been cancelled and "didn't you read the email?" that had been sent today (after the confirmation email had already been received on Dec 4) asking for 50% payment in advance by 11am in order to hold the spot. I pulled up my email and found it in the junk folder. When asked why they didn't call, she stated that they didn't have my number. This is something that could have been easily prevented if they had asked for my phone number during the online registration process! I was a client several years ago, but it looks like they didn't have that info in their current system. Also, their booking engine had clearly stated " For this service, pay at the time of your appointment instead of through the website." If it would have stated "You need to pay 50% in advance to keep your spot" I would have called in the morning to sort it out instead of wasting my time and gas driving 1 hour there and back only to find out it had been cancelled! The receptionist did state there was time for a relaxation massage tonight but not with an RMT but a) I am in considerable discomfort and needed targeted work done by an RMT and b) would not be able to relax at this point! No apologies about the misunderstanding or lack of clarity regarding the expectation to pay 50% in advance. it felt like they didn't really care that they cancelled the appointment on me. I went back to my car and then I see the RMT I was supposed to have had an appointment with walking down the back stairs to leave with another staff member and overheard them snarking about "people who think they can just walk in and get a massage without an appointment." I do hope they were referring to another client, because ????????????????????????."

"Tyla Ironside is THE BEST. Nails, massage, or any of her offered services are great, you can't go wrong with her! Love the place in general! It's beautiful, clean and staff are amazing. You can tell the owner really puts pride into her business."

"Talented, hard-working, RMT’s! Thank you so much Stuart, and Cole. A beautiful space with unique products and gifts!"

"Great experience and worth the self- care investment. Knowledgeable and accommodating staff. Products used were nourishing and gentle - especially for someone with sensitive skin."

"Fantastic. Ive gotten many massages due to the physical demand of my job. I will be returning. Nick did a great job, i felt like a marshmellow afterward. He made sure to focus on spots that needed it most, and provided some great information about how the muscles work. I highly recommend. I sadly forgot to ask for my technicians name that did my pedicure but she was also fantastic. Great work, couldnt be happier. I have already booked my next visit, and am so happy ive found my new go to place for treating myself !"
