Medical aesthetics for the Danforth
The Danforth, better known as Greektown, runs along Danforth Avenue in the east end and is famous for its Greek restaurants and the summer Taste of the Danforth. It is an easy trip across the core to our CityPlace clinic on Fort York Boulevard, with the subway running straight along the street.
Danforth clients come to us for the full range, preventative and treatment Botox, lip and cheek filler, and resurfacing facials, with results tuned to look natural rather than overdone.

How far is Bar Beauty Medical from The Danforth?
Here’s the honest mileage. We’re a 20 min via DVP + Gardiner drive from the centre of The Danforth. Public transit is Line 2 Pape, Chester, Broadview Subway stations, 506 Carlton. Most of our The Danforth patients arrive by car because our parking is free, and parking is the thing nobody talks about when they recommend a Yorkville clinic.
The route is simple. From The Danforth you take the DVP south to the Gardiner, exit at Lake Shore Boulevard, and you will see our building on Fort York Blvd between the railway bridge and Lake Shore. We share an entrance with the residential lobby, and the clinic is on the ground floor.
What treatments do The Danforth residents book most often at Bar Beauty?
The The Danforth demographic, young families, Greek-Canadian heritage, professional commuters, tends to ask for the same handful of services. Here’s the realistic top five.
- Botox / Dysport / Nuceiva for forehead, glabella, crow’s feet, and the masseter (jaw slimming). Most The Danforth patients in their thirties run 30-50 units in a standard upper face. Lower face and masseter add on.
- Lip filler with Stylage or Stylage. Conservative volume, smooth border, no duck pout.
- Aerolase NeoSkin laser for redness, melasma, post-acne pigment, and pre-event glow. This is our most-requested The Danforth pre-wedding treatment.
- Morpheus 8 radiofrequency microneedling for jawline definition, sub-mental skin, and acne scar revision.
- PRF facial / under-eye PRF for tired under-eyes that filler alone cannot fix.

Who runs my appointment, is it actually a doctor?
Honest answer: not directly, and that’s how aesthetic clinics in Ontario work. Dr. Henneberry-Fudge is our Medical Director, CPSO #95972, FRCPC dermatology, and his standing orders, BDD screening protocols, and emergency procedures govern every appointment that happens in our chair. Day-to-day, your injector is one of:
- Shahram, our Master Injector. Note: Shahram is a non-physician advanced injector, he is never addressed as “Dr.” and we never imply otherwise. He has years of advanced injectable training and a high-volume practice.
- Jasmine, our RN injector. Twelve years of nursing background, certified in the neurotoxins we carry (Botox, Dysport, Nuceiva).
- Julia, our Glow Specialist. Aerolase, Morpheus 8, facials, peels, and skin protocols.
If something falls outside what an RN or Master Injector can clear, vascular event, allergic reaction, BDD red flag, anything anatomically unusual, Dr. Henneberry-Fudge is reachable, has reviewed your chart, and the protocol kicks in immediately.
What does a first appointment at Bar Beauty actually look like?
We’re not going to upsell you. Here’s the visit, step by step.
- Online intake before you arrive through our Jane App. Medical history, medication list, photo consent.
- Free consult. Twenty minutes with your injector. We map your face, we discuss what’s bothering you, and we talk about what is, and isn’t, appropriate.
- Recommendation in writing. Before any injection happens, we hand you a written treatment plan with dose, product, and price. You decide if you want to proceed today.
- Treatment. Most injectable appointments at Bar Beauty run 15-30 minutes. Aerolase and Morpheus 8 run 45-60.
- Aftercare in your hand. Written aftercare, a follow-up text 48 hours later, and a free 2-week touch-up for Botox if you need it, as long as no promotion or discount was applied to your original treatment.
That’s the visit. No pressure to add four other treatments.

How do I get to your clinic from The Danforth?
By car: 20 min via DVP + Gardiner. Transit: Line 2 Pape, Chester, Broadview Subway stations, 506 Carlton. Walking distance: transit.
Parking. There is paid parking in the building and metered street parking nearby on Fort York Blvd and the surrounding CityPlace streets. Tell us when you book and we will point you to the closest option for your appointment time.
Accessibility. Ground floor entrance, no stairs, wide treatment rooms, lift-friendly chairs.
Are there other The Danforth medical spas I should compare you to?
Yes. Honestly. The The Danforth catchment has chain spas, condo-unit injectors, and well-run independent clinics. Three honest signals to look for at any clinic:
- A named medical director with a CPSO number you can verify. Not just “medical director on call,” an actual name you can look up on the CPSO public register.
- Pricing published online. If you can’t see a price list before you walk in, the price is whatever they think you’ll pay.
- A real chart system. Jane App, EMR, or equivalent, not a paper folder in a drawer.
Bar Beauty meets all three. Some The Danforth-area clinics meet two. A surprising number meet none.
Do I need a referral or doctor’s note?
No. Medical aesthetics in Ontario don’t require a referral. You can book yourself in on Jane tonight. We screen for medical contraindications and the standard BDD flags during your consult.
What if I’ve had bad filler somewhere else?
You’re not the first. This is one of the most common consults we run with The Danforth patients who got lip or cheek filler elsewhere and want it dissolved. We use hyaluronidase to dissolve overfilled or migrated HA filler. Pricing is per-syringe-equivalent of dissolver, not per mL of bad filler. We do not judge, we just fix it. Read our filler-correction page for more.
What’s the parking situation, really?
There is paid parking in the building and metered street parking on the surrounding CityPlace streets. We will point you to the closest option when you book.
Why did you open the clinic in CityPlace and not Yorkville?
Because the neighbourhood needed it. The downtown southwest pocket, King West, Liberty, CityPlace, Fort York, Harbourfront, had a fast-growing condo population but very few physician-supervised aesthetic clinics when we opened. Most options sat up in Yorkville. We wanted patients downtown to have a closer choice.
Plus, our lease at 46 Fort York Blvd costs a fraction of an equivalent Mink Mile address, and we passed that savings into our price list rather than into our renovation budget.
How do I book?
Book online on Jane anytime. Or call us at 416-923-1200 between 10 AM and 7 PM Monday through Saturday.

FAQ, Patient Questions We Hear Most Often
How long does the drive from The Danforth to Bar Beauty actually take?
Realistically, 20 min via DVP + Gardiner during off-peak hours. Add 5-10 minutes for evening rush hour on the Gardiner or Lake Shore. Our patients from The Danforth typically book a late-morning or mid-afternoon slot to avoid both rushes.
Is there a Bar Beauty clinic closer to The Danforth?
No. We operate one clinic, at 46 Fort York Blvd, CityPlace Toronto. The reason is simple, Dr. Henneberry-Fudge supervises every chart in one location, and we’d rather keep that oversight tight than expand to a second site.
Do you take walk-ins from The Danforth?
We’ll always try. The reality is we run on a booked schedule. Walk-ins are best for product pick-up (medical skincare, post-treatment kits) and brief touch-ups. For Botox or filler, book on Jane.
What’s the price difference between Bar Beauty and a The Danforth-area clinic?
We publish every price up front, so you can compare us against any The Danforth-area or Yorkville clinic before you book. See our price list. The difference in our favour comes from our lease and our marketing budget, not from product, certification, or medical oversight.
Can I bring my partner or friend to my appointment?
Yes. Our consult rooms are big enough for one support person. We don’t allow children under 12 in the treatment room for safety reasons.
How do I know if Botox or filler is right for me?
Start with the free consult. We will tell you honestly if your concern is better addressed by another treatment (laser, Morpheus, PRF, skincare) or if you simply don’t need anything yet. We turn away patients we don’t think will benefit, ask any of our long-term The Danforth clients.
Will my injectables look obvious when I get back to The Danforth?
Not if we do it right. Our house style is restrained, small doses, conservative volume, natural movement preserved. The compliment most of our The Danforth patients hear is ‘you look rested,’ not ‘you look like you had work done.’
Do you offer evening or weekend appointments for The Danforth commuters?
Yes. We book through 7 PM Tuesday-Friday and run Saturdays 10-5. Sunday and Monday are our closed days.
How long do Botox and filler results last?
Botox runs 3-4 months in most patients. Lip filler runs 9-18 months depending on product and metabolism. Cheek filler can run 12-24 months. Aerolase results compound over a series and last 6-12 months between maintenance treatments.
What happens if I have a reaction or complication after I’m home in The Danforth?
You contact the clinic directly. Dr. Henneberry-Fudge’s standing orders cover any vascular or allergic event, and we will see you back in clinic quickly, not days later.
How do I cancel or reschedule from The Danforth?
Through Jane up to 24 hours before. Same-day cancellations forfeit deposit per our published policy.
Do you have parking near the The Danforth side of your clinic?
There is paid parking in the building and metered street parking nearby in CityPlace. We will point you to the closest option when you book.
Is this treatment safe for darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV-VI)?
For most of what we offer, yes. Aerolase NeoElit at 1064 nm is genuinely safe across all phototypes and is our default for vascular and pigment work in darker skin. Injectables (toxin and HA filler) are equally safe across phototypes. Morpheus 8 carries a small post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation risk in Fitzpatrick V-VI that we mitigate with conservative energy settings and prophylactic topical lightening under Dr. Henneberry-Fudge’s prescription where appropriate.
Can I do this while breastfeeding?
Generally no for injectables, with rare exceptions discussed with Dr. Henneberry-Fudge. The published safety data in breastfeeding is sparse, and the Canadian medical aesthetic community defaults to deferral. Most patients return to treatment three to six months after weaning. Laser treatments and most facials are fine throughout nursing.
How does this compare to Yorkville pricing at twice the price?
In most cases the product is identical, the training is comparable, and the differential is rent, location, and brand premium, not clinical skill. We’ve corrected enough work from Yorkville addresses to know that price does not track outcome reliably. We publish prices because the patient deserves to know what they’re paying for.
Can I get this treatment if I’m on Ozempic or another GLP-1 medication?
Yes, but planning matters. Significant weight loss redistributes facial fat over six to twelve months. We tend to stage filler and biostimulator decisions for patients in active weight loss and revisit at every visit. Toxin and laser work are unaffected by GLP-1 status.
Will I look “done” when I go back to work the next day?
Not if we do it right. The Bar Beauty house style is restrained, small doses, conservative volumes, natural movement preserved. The most common compliment patients hear at the office the next day is “you look rested” or “did you sleep well this weekend.” Visible swelling on day one is normal; visible artifice in week two means the dose was wrong.
