Whether you’re looking for some simple TLC or for your face to feel fully fresh and rejuvenated, there’s a spot in Toronto where you can get the perfect facial. Who doesn’t love getting pampered every once in a while? With the amount of options throughout the city, from spas to beauty bars, it can be overwhelming to choose a spot to trust with your complexion. So, we’ve done the research for you!
Here are some of the best spots to get a facial in Toronto:
The FIX Facial Bar
There’s no one-size fits all approach at The Fix Facial Bar. Its professional skin therapists help create a customized treatment plan, catering to your individual skin needs. They are always up-to-date on the latest skin techniques while still honouring the traditional. You’re sure to have a relaxing experience while your skin gets completely revitalized.
Formula Fig
Forumla Fig is a facial bar offering timely yet effective facials. Most of its services are only 30 minutes! The bar has a menu of high-tech facials catering to various skin concerns including hydration, texture, clarity, and more.
Sous La Face
We’ve seen lymphatic drainage facials popping up over our socials lately! Sous La Face‘s Radical Radiance Regime is its signature treatment that focuses on deep muscle release and lymphatic drainage. It’s less about the products and more about a facial massage in order to provide results “beneath the surface”.
Hammam Spa
If you’re looking for a super relaxing (and pampering) spa experience for when you get your next facial, Hammam Spa is totally worth checking out! It has a variety of different facials, which all sound absolutely amazing. The 60-minute Signature Custom Facial looks especially great to us.
Radford Studio
Victoria Radford has over 15 years of experience in the beauty space, and with said experience, she’s created customizable approaches to skincare to suit each individual’s needs at Radford Studio. The facial menu includes a large selection of facials from deep-cleansing to peels. You’ll leave the studio feeling fresh and glowing!
The Detox Market
At The Detox Market, all the products it carries are made from pure ingredients and are cruelty-free. We love to see it! Along with providing great clean skincare products, select locations offer facials from Province Apothercat and Odacité. Its facials are said to be super relaxing and pampering.
Pure + Simple
Pure + Simple not only has multiple locations throughout Toronto but also one of the largest facial menus we’ve seen! If you find the menu overwhelming, we recommend going with the “Choose The Best”, where your facialist will determine the best facial for you and your skin needs. This spot is a fan-favourite, known to give a great facial!
My Beauty Doctor
My Beauty Doctor, located on the second floor of Toronto’s Medulla & Co., offers a variety of facials from hydrating treatments to chemical peels. Its Fire & Ice Facial is a must-try, known as the red carpet facial, it’s designed to safely resurface and rapidly rejuvenate the skin with no downtime. Perfect if you’re looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and blemishes.
Tight Clinic
Tight Clinic is known for its cutting-edge beauty services, including its “non-surgical facelift,” also known as the Buccal Facial Massage. This effective massage technique blends a facial sculpting massage with an intra-oral massage (performed inside the mouth), stimulating lymphatic drainage to reduce puffiness, flush toxins, and encourage circulation, resulting in a more youthful, glowing appearance.

Biologique Recherche Bespoke Facial at Tight Clinic
If you prefer a treatment that’s completely tailored to you and your skincare needs, Tight Clinic’s Biologique Recherche Bespoke Facial is definitely a must-try. The treatment begins with a thorough analysis of your skin’s specific needs, which is followed by an individualized preparation of your epidermis based on a thorough cleansing of your skin combined with a facial massage, followed by preparing your skin using the brand’s iconic Lotion P50 and applying a face mask. Next comes the treatment stage, which targets each skin issue by incorporating products with the highest concentration of active ingredients, which take effect gradually, resulting in the improvement of skin quality, while your complexion becomes more radiant.

Welcome to Ossington, Formula Fig!
We were recently invited to check out Formula Fig, a game-changing facial bar that already has 3 locations in Vancouver and has just opened its doors to the public in Toronto, located at 50 Ossington Avenue.
If you’re not familiar with Formula Fig, it is an experience-led, science-forward facial bar (AKA, Fig Bar), founded by Jessica Walsh and Anita Chan, offering a menu of facial treatments, neuromodulators, and IV injections. As well as tons of high-quality skincare products to shop for!
As soon as you approach its storefront, you’re greeted with a forest (pun intended) of green tiles and foliage, making it impossible to miss on the street of Ossington! Once you step foot inside you’ll realize it’s like no other facial bar you’ve ever been to—in the absolute best way possible.
You’re instantly transported into the London Tube, which this Fig Bar’s design was inspired by, and no detail was overlooked! It even has the same tiles used in the London subway station! Not only are you greeted with an aesthetically pleasing storefront filled with delicious hues of green, you instantly spot sight of its wide selection of carefully curated skincare products, some of which will be used on you during your facial. That way, you can take the facial home with you, in a way!
Once you go in for your facial, you enter a pod that appears to go on forever, thanks to its structure and mirrors. Giving the illusion of being in an underground subway station.
Each facial takes a total of just 30 minutes (all except 1, which is 45 minutes).
Making it super easy to pop in and take care of your skin on the regular! All of its facials have no downtime, so you can even go in on your lunch break and be on your way with glowy, beautiful skin!
One of our favourite facials offered at Formula Fig is the “All In” facial, giving you a little bit of everything, making it the perfect go-to for first-timers trying the bar out. Our favourite part? The membership option!
You can choose 1 of 4 from its membership options according to your skin needs and budget: basic, classic, advanced, and ultimate.
With the membership, you receive a monthly facial along with other perks, like 10% off all products.
After your relaxing, skin-enriching facial is complete, Formula Fig has the best post-facial selfie spot that is totally Instagram-worthy. Its fig-inspired washroom! Its pink and red hues along with its circular architecture totally remind us of what the inside of a fig would be like, if the inside of a fig were a washroom, that is. The circle mirror with text that says “Give a fig about your skin.”, with a dried flower bouquet on the counter, tied in with pink accents and flattering warm lighting makes it hard to resist taking a mirror selfie with your newly glowing skin.
All of the little (and big) details combined are why we think Formula Fig is going to be one of Toronto’s hottest facial spots.
If you’re looking to stray away from the average facial for something way cooler, you have to check out this Fig Bar!
