Dr. Shehla Ebrahim is one of those people who deserve so much more than a thank you can say. She performed a scar excision on me and she didn’t just do it skillfully. She did it with her whole heart. From my very first interaction with her (virtual consult), I could tell that this was not just a job to her. This is her calling and purpose. This clinic is her passion project. And so despite the pandemic, I was happy to travel from Richmond all the way to North Van for every appointment. After a botched thread lift and RF procedure at another clinic resulting in an unsightly bump (buckled thread) and indented scar, I was desperate for help. I had consulted with other clinics, but Dr. Shehla was the only person who truly took the time to listen to my story, ask questions, and map out a game plan. This was a complex scar and the buckled thread underneath made things even more complicated. Throughout the process, Dr. Shehla was gentle, reassuring, and quick. I was booked to have my scar excision only two days after my virtual consult. She knew how much the scar was affecting me and made room for me in her busy schedule. The procedure itself was relatively painless (3/10). They provided a local anesthetic and checked in constantly to make sure I was doing okay. In the end, Dr. Shehla did not just treat a physical scar. After standing up for me to the other clinic, reassuring me, listening, and most importantly, treating the scar, I feel that I have emotionally healed from the traumatizing experience. Coming from a nursing student, Dr. Shehla is exactly the type of professional that I aspire to be. Brilliant, passionate, and empathetic with a strong moral compass and sense of justice. Did I mention that she charged much less than what she should have? Patients come before profit for this doctor. Thank you for everything, Dr. Shehla.
I visited Afterglow, for the first time today. My experience was EXCELLENT. I had Dr Mona and Tara - they both explained treatments and future regimes in a way that no other clinic has done with me. I would 10/10 recommend this clinic!
I had coolsculpting with Tara and it was great! She is so kind and thoughtful and really wants the best for her patients. She explained everything thoroughly and takes the time to consider your goals, and works with you to achieve those. Looking forward to more treatments with her - she’s so lovely!
Excellent service, care and professionalism. Very grateful. I had laser to remove a red spot from a burst capillary. It was fast and a great experience overall. I will be back. I would highly recommend Dr. to anyone requesting aesthetic work.
I have seen many people over the years for Botox and filler. Dr. Ebrahim is by far the best. I switched to her after experiencing a post procedure eye droop from botox with my old physician. I was told this occurred because I have difficult “number 11’s” (frown lines) and the provider used a large amount of product in an attempt to accommodate this. Dr. Ebrahim is the first person to ever be able to get my “11’s” no complications whatsoever. She also recommended under eye filler which has been face changing. So glad I found her!
I have been seeing Dr, Ebrahim at least 10years , the best!! Dr. Shehla Ebrahim is a wonderful Doctor, she knows her stuff. Also is very nice to talk to. I would highly recommend her. I travel far to go to her and will continue without hesitation. I value her advice, and am always pleased with my results. Thanks so much!!
I went to Afterglow and had my treatment with Tara. This was booked after I visited their clinic to buy products. Tara helped me select the right products for me and suggested the Jessner Peel. The Skinceutical products have worked great and the peel was everything she clearly described. Tara was very informative, friendly and was able to answer all my questions and concerns. I have already recommend Tara and Afterglow to my friends.
Dr. Ebrahim worked with me to determine the right treatment approach to meet my goals. She understood that I wanted to soften my lines without looking "frozen" and she accomplished just that. She listened to me and when I came back for my next appointment, she asked for my feedback. Updated on 14 Jun 2021: She listened to how I wanted to look while also keeping my budget in mind. She takes the time to talk to her patients and then adjusts her treatment plan. Very clean and professional office with great, friendly staff.
Doctor Ebrahim performed my first lip filler procedure. I had some concerns about it at first, and she told me that I was not ready to do the procedure. She was more concerned that I should be ready for it, when she could have easily convinced me to do it to make money. I called back the next day and decided to go for it. She welcomed me in and did a quick and painless job. I naturally have a crooked smile so the filler made it look even more crooked. She fixed it for no charge by putting a bit more on the one side. To be honest I waited a few days to write this, because it looked really goofy at first but I wanted to give it a fair shot. The swelling has gone down and I’m happy with my results. I would return to her again.
Acne scars in women of color with rich pigmented skin will respond to Microneedling with RF. However, it depends upon the length of time you have had these scars. Looks like they are quite mature and more than 10 years. This makes them difficult to treat. Other options are TCA peel for ice pick scars. Subscision and saline or dermal filler in for rolled scars and fractional resurfacing with MN and RF for boxed scars. You will require several treatments and several sessions. good luck!
Hi there, This issue of toxins not working at all or not lasting long enough has been the subject of debate and discussion since everyone got vaccinated. We find this problem with all neuromodulators: botox, Xeomin, and Dysport. It probably has to do with the immune system post-vaccination. However, no studies are there to support this. It's only an observation amongst Cosmetic Physicians. Fractional resurfacing for the forehead will not work as the issue is the forehead muscle which will mainly respond to a neuromodulator I would just try retin A for prevention, give a wash-out period of 6 months, and then re-try with the toxin of your choice. Hope this helps. Cheers
Hello and thank you for your question. Looking at your pictures, it appears that you are an excellent candidate for therapy as you were young and have mild laxity. However please know that a therapy is not going to lift your cheeks . It will tighten your skin and improve skin tone, texture and quality.
Hello and thank you for your question. Unfortunately, cool sculpting does not and will not give you a six-pack abdomen. For that, you will need to focus on strength training and exercise. Cool sculpting is reserved for people who have stubborn areas of fat they do not respond to diet or exercise and is not a replacement for weight loss and good eating habits. good luck
Tearhollows hollows and malar festoons f are two entirely different entities. While tear trough hollows can be treated with fillers, Malar festoons cannot.In fact treating festoons with fillers can actually make them worse. So essentially, a proper diagnosis is important and for that, I would recommend that you see an experienced aesthetic physician so as to differentiate between the two. Malar festoons are difficult to treat and require ablative fractional laser treatment or intralesional radiofrequency. good luck
