“Raising the calibre of medical aesthetics”

Aesthetic medicine is a dynamic specialty that utilizes medical procedures to enhance one’s satisfaction with their appearance. Although typically elective, aesthetic medical procedures can remarkably increase an individual’s confidence and self-esteem while improving one’s quality of life and psychological health.

md cosmetic offers safe and effective cosmetic rejuvenation treatments, administered by caring medical clinicians supervised by an experienced physician.

MD Cosmetic & Laser Clinics are owned and operated by world-renowned Dr.Haneef

Alibhai BSc, MD, CM, CCFP, FCFP. His well respected clinics boast some of the most advanced in laser technologies and aesthetic procedures. Today, there are several options for non-surgical aesthetic treatments that are proven to achieve exceptional results.

The MD Cosmetic & Laser Clinics are conveniently situated in two locations; Abbotsford, BC; which has been in operation for the past fifteen years and since 2013; Port Moody, BC. The clinics are beautifully decorated with a pleasant, relaxed and professional feel to them. They offer first-class services, complementing Dr. Haneef Alibhai’s superior professionalism.

Dr. Alibhai has over 15 years of experience in the medical aesthetics field with a background in Medicine from McGill Medical School, including an extraordinary history of providing in-house certified physician training since 2002 to over 1200 doctors and dentists in the specialization of Botox Cosmetic, Juvederm, and the use of laser technology. He is an internationally recognized speaker and author in the field of aesthetic medicine and has spoken at conferences all over the world. In addition, he is a clinical instructor for the UBC Faculty of Medicine.

Today, Dr. Alibhai remains at the forefront of aesthetic medicine while leading in his craft. His vast knowledge base, along with years of hands on

experience in the areas of laser, pulsed light devices, Botox Cosmetic, Botox Therapeutic and Dermal Fillers has made him one of the most informative and engaging public speakers in the region and abroad.

Dr.Alibhai is especially gifted in the area of Botox. He points out to many unaware consumers that Botox can also be used therapeutically. It can assist with excessive sweating in the underarms and palms as well help minimize chronic migraines. Moreover, combined therapy such as Botox and dermal fillers can produce some of the most impressive skin results.

Another advanced procedure that Dr.Alibhai includes in his treatment regimen is Microneedling. This medical device is designed for non-surgical treatment of various skin conditions such as acne scars, surgical scars, fine lines and stretch marks. Microneedling is fast healing since the punctures caused by the microneedling device are small and therefore close within several hours following the procedure.

Dr.Alibhai also uses various laser technologies for the purpose of ablative and non-ablative skin resurfacing. Ablative skin resurfacing through

fractional technology is a treatment for fine to deep wrinkles, scars and superficial skin lesions. Conversely, the non- ablative resurfacing laser sends an array of controlled micro beams

into the dermis. These micro-beams cause a change in the collagen and elastin below the skin surface. This results in a reduction of sun damage, acne scars, and an overall improvement in skin texture and tone.

A wonderful option for radiant looking skin is the ZO Skin Health’s Peel Treatments. These treatments help renew, rejuvenate and revitalize your skin;

creating a radiant, more even skin tone and texture while increasing skin brightness and clarity.

In order to remain at the forefront of medical aesthetics, Dr. Alibhai and his dedicated team continue to upgrade with the latest proven technology and training. The nurses and medical aestheticians are

well versed in many current advanced, non- invasive aesthetic procedures.

MD has recently added the CoolScultping procedure to it’s lengthy list of medical treatments. CoolSculpting is a quick, non-invasive, non-surgical approved technology that utilizes cold therapy to

freeze and destroy fat cells. Also referred to as cryolipolysis, the

procedure is especially effective for selected areas of fat like the love

handles, muffin tops, thighs, arms, abdomen, and buttocks. With no down-time, patients see quick results, fit into their clothes better, feel better and ultimately, look better!

Another newer technology offered at MD is Photofacial Rejuvenation. This procedure uses pulsed light to remove facial imperfections treating sunspots, enlarged pores and red veins. The Photofacial procedure creates a gentle warming of the skin that induces new collagen formation and helps to reduce fine lines and shrinks pores, providing patients with a refreshed, clean and healthy new look.

MD Cosmetic & Laser Clinics focus on continually polishing internal competencies that foster greater responsiveness to patients’ desires and goals. Fueled by a love and passion for his work, Dr. Alibhai sees no limit to offering the best quality technology, products and service. His belief in providing an authentic service resonates closely with his patients. People appreciate his

genuine, upfront and sincere approach towards his practice.

With a professional customer service base, patients are never forced or coerced into any procedures. Dr. Alibhai stresses the importance of spending time with his patients and getting to know them; learning and understanding their concerns and objectives. He highlights how educating the consumer is crucial so they can make the best informed decisions for their skin care needs. At MD Cosmetic, “less is more” is the underlying motto.

Each patient is offered a comprehensive and complimentary consultation to help them achieve their goals. In a soothing and comfortable environment, patients can expect to receive advanced and effective skin care treatments, administered by caring medical clinicians supervised by an experienced physician. Procedures are performed gradually and over a period of time to ensure that all patients achieve their goals and are satisfied with their beautiful and natural appearance.

In addition to advanced medical procedures which utilize state-of-the-art technology, patients are offered advanced physician-grade skincare products. These selected skincare lines help complement and enhance the advanced medical procedures offered at the clinics. After a thorough consultation, patients will be

prescribed skincare products designed specifically for them.

Whether patients want to reduce frown lines or lessen the effects of rosacea, eliminate unwanted stretch marks or boost self-esteem, Dr. Alibhai’s non-surgical aesthetic procedures and treatments are tailored to meet individual needs and are proven to achieve outstanding results. Patients leave feeling happier and more confident. For Dr. Alibhai, there is no greater satisfaction than celebrating

his patients’ stunning transformations alongside with them.
