Inspection summary

Face Cosmedics has been inspected once by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health), on December 16, 2024. The most recent inspection, on December 16, 2024, recorded 2 infractions.

No inspections are on record from the past 12 months. All recorded findings relate to upkeep, equipment or paperwork rather than direct infection-control risks to clients.

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.

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, client records, sterilization logs and required signage. Client records matter because they let health officials contact people if an infection is linked to the business.

    Recorded once on December 16, 2024. For example: Is cleansing and antisepsis of skin and mucous membrane performed in accordance to written procedures and are suitable products being used?

  • 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 once on December 16, 2024. For example: Is reusable equipment disinfected properly?
