Halifax Botox clinics see increasing demand [Video]

Many Maritime aesthetic clinics are seeing increasing demand for Botox and fillers and changes in their clientele.

“It’s a pretty high demand, people are coming in from various ages, from 20 to 70. Some people are coming in for more prevention and don’t want to have those permanent lines they could see in their face, so they are starting to get those small doses to prevent those lines,” says Holley Redmond, a registered nurse at the Bedford Skin Clinic.
