Inspection summary
Advance Laser Clinic has been inspected 4 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since September 26, 2024. The most recent inspection, on September 24, 2026, found no infractions.
1 of 4 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 2 inspections with 5 infractions recorded. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.
Recent inspections have recorded more infractions than earlier ones, so it is worth reading the latest reports closely.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for clients. In personal service settings like salons, spas and tattoo studios, higher-risk findings are the ones that could spread infection from one client to the next, through broken skin, blood or instruments that were not properly cleaned and sterilized.
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Instruments, chairs, tables and footbaths must be made of materials that can be cleaned, kept in good repair and stored so they stay clean. Single-use items such as nail files, buffers, razors and needles must be thrown away after each client.
Recorded 5 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on September 9, 2026. For example:
Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Some jurisdictions require operators to complete infection-prevention training, or to hold specific qualifications for higher-risk services such as tattooing, piercing or electrolysis. These findings mean the training record was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean a client was put at risk.
Recorded once on September 9, 2026. For example:
Has the operator notified the RHA of the existence of a personal service business, including contact and location information, as well as all personal services currently offered or new personal services that will be offered for facilities and/or special events?
Other findingsLower risk
Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.
Recorded once on September 9, 2026. For example:
Are general nuisance conditions, other than those noted in other violations, being prevented at this personal services facility (Critical)?

- It was observed that the high-level disinfectant CS20 had expired on June 3, 2026, and CaviWipes had expired on April 1, 2026. The use of expired disinfectants may compromise the effectiveness of cleaning and disinfection procedures and increase the risk of contamination.All expired products were discarded during the inspection.

- 27. Is the facility maintained in a visibly clean state and are environmental surfaces cleaned and disinfected properly?
- During the inspection, the following concerns were identified:1. The client service table in Room 1 was observed to be dirty, with visible staining on the linen and hair debris adhered to the surface. This indicates that the linen was not being changed and cleaned after each client. The use of soiled linens may contribute to cross-contamination and does not support effective cleaning and disinfection practices between clients.2. The client service table in the IPL treatment room was observed to be in disrepair, with damaged surfaces along the sides. Damaged surfaces cannot be effectively cleaned and disinfected and may harbor contaminants.The operator was instructed to ensure that all surfaces used for providing services are smooth, non-porous, and easily cleanable. Service tables must be maintained in good repair to allow for effective cleaning and disinfection. The use of reusable linens on multiple clients compromises infection prevention and control requirements. If linens are used, they must be changed after each client and laundered appropriately. Alternatively, service surfaces that can be readily cleaned and disinfected between clients should be utilized. Damaged service tables must be repaired or replaced.
- 32. Are general nuisance conditions, other than those noted in other violations, being prevented at this personal services facility (Critical)?
- During the inspection1. A dead mouse was observed in a drawer within the Botox treatment room, along with mouse droppings in the surrounding area. The presence of rodents and rodent feces may contaminate equipment, supplies and environmental surfaces, posing a risk to client and operator health.2. Mouse dropping were observed in the storage room under the shelves, around the corner and behind the water bottles. The operator was instructed to obtain the services of a licensed pest control company to assess and address the mouse infestation in the facility. All affected areas must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected and measures must be implemented to prevent future rodent entry and infestation.
