I've been seeing Anh at BackBay Skincare almost every month this year for hydrafacials, and I can…read morehonestly say it's completely transformed my skin. It feels like one of those secrets you almost don't want to share because she's that good. I've been to all the "fancy" and overhyped spas in Boston, and nothing compares--those places feel like a lot of promises without results. With Anh, I get instant and lasting benefits every single time. My skin is clearer, healthier, and I've gotten more compliments this year than I ever have. She also takes the time to recommend products that actually work for me, which has made such a difference in keeping my skin on track between visits. If you're looking for results-driven skincare in Boston, this is the place. Anh is truly a hidden gem.

The first time I…read morecalled, Kristy was so nice to be able to squeeze me in last minute..for my first ever Brazilian ever.. Like the reviews said, which is why I came, it was quick, not totally painless cause it is my first time, but she did a fantastic job. She used to be at quincy center, at the back of the skincare studio, but have moved to Braintree on the 2nd floor in the 1604 Salon & Spa. Just take the stairs right when you walk in to the left. Very comfortable room where they do the waxing- very clean. You can actually pay in card and tip as well which is very very convenient for me! Unfortunately, Braintree was a bit hard to for me to get to, but if you have a car or live in Braintree it's quite easy to get around. There's always some sort of parking behind the house.

Epitome Skin Care and Usha is truly one of a kind. (please excuse me and my sisters addiction for…read moreher jelly masks in the photos) Along with always trying to sneak in a mask, I have had a wonderful array of treatments done here, like dermaplaning (SHE IS FANTASTIC IN THIS), dermalight, microcurrent, chemical peels, and this really great sucking tool (sorry I tried to google the tool's name and couldn't find it!) to rejuvenate flow to my skin. Usha is simply professional, knowledgeable, and confident in her stellar work on skin. This shows through from the initial consultation of what areas she feels we should work on, through her steady handiwork, to the end results. Every time I leave the studio, the results I gain are two folds. And the days following you can clearly see the results. They say skin can glow, and I actually used that phrase after seeing her every time. I can't recommend Usha and her wonderful skills enough. With my own terrible skin regimen, she always knows what to do to repair, rejuvenate, and hydrate my skin. I have always had a variation of concerns with my face that she was able to address. Some of the key issues she has been able to take care of is acne, discoloration in scarring, overall skin health, and her jeweled skillset in dermaplaning to bring out the brightness in new skin. I make sure to get a brow wax/shaping from Usha as well, her artistry in shaping is incredible. I also love listening to her knowledge in skincare, her experiences, and wonderful personality. I am grateful for my opportunity with Usha while she continues to have openings whenever I need her. She is absolute STAR quality and I hope she'll continue to fit me in when she's famous!

All of my insecurities melted away from the moment I checked in. Dr. Flashner has created something really special- there's a reason he keeps expanding (I think Dedham is the 5th location and they keep adding). I had my initial consultation when the first opened over the summer and it was very low pressure. I've since come in for a couple of different treatments and am always blown away by both the commitment to excellence and the customer service. (It's the little extras like seeing if you'd like a water and ALWAYS calling to follow up with you afterwards that go a long way in my book). Timea might be the kindest person I've ever met. She makes me feel incredibly comfortable and taken care of, and she is great about explaining the procedures. I feel like I should have mentioned earlier that in the past I have ventured into the city for any skincare treatments but I am so relieved to have found a place I will keep coming back to so close to home.

I am a patient of Dr. Paul D Costas…read more..  THE best healthcare experience I have had! Dr. Costas is a brilliant surgeon! Dr. Costas and his staff are top notch, courteous and professional. A questionable spot was found on my mammogram and I had always considered having a breast reduction. I decided to just do it! I had breast reduction and lift surgery, with liposuction. Two words... NO DRAINS! I never knew until Dr. Costas told me, that I had what is called Breast Hypertrophy, just another example of the extent of knowledge and experience of Dr. Costas! I was scheduled when there was a cancellation, and had my surgery one week after my consultation! The staff shared their own, personal surgery stories with me and they have a way of putting you at ease! My primary doctor, NP and my specialists are familiar with Dr. Costas' work and speak in high regards of his talent. I work in the medical field, and I have highly recommended Dr. Costas to my patients and colleagues. I am so glad I had the surgery, and wish I had done it sooner! I am grateful for the results, and for the positive effects this surgery has had on my health. I am so lucky to have found Dr. Costas and his staff.

I had previously undergone two breast lifts. Dr. Costas did not inform me of the possibility of…read moreincreased scar tissue with repeated procedures at the exact location; in fact, there was very little communication on his part throughout the procedure or during aftercare meetings. I developed keloid scars under both breasts. Still, he did not inform me what I had or how to help myself. He repeatedly advised massaging the area with vitamin E. Keloid scarring is irritating and erythematous. The scars are raised and thick. I would not recommend this doctor. He does not take the time to evaluate each patient properly, and his communication skills are inadequate. I waited to write this to see if my scars would heal over time, and they have not. Working with him was the worst decision I have made in the field of plastic surgery. There is more, as he did three procedures, but I will not go on. I wasted my money and am permanently scarred. The lack of communication left me feeling empty, uncared for, and cheated. Please! Find someone who listens, asks about your health condition and previous procedures, gives you the facts, and treats you like an individual with unique concerns. 12/31/25. May the coming year see more caring plastic surgeons!

When I first wanted to go get a Brazilian, I was coming in there with a lot of trauma and I was…read morereally worried about how this was going to go. The word on the street was that Karen Golden was the person you went to if you were coming into this from a place of trauma and the street wasn't kidding. If you're kind of a hot mess, you won't find a more compassionate person. She's not judgy, she's not unkind, and she makes the process of ripping your pubic hair out of your body as not-awful as it possibly could be. The room is clean and smells nice. Her assistant Lara is also as kind as can be. She takes cash or checks and everyone is understanding if you don't come by on the regular or have to cancel at the last minute (I disappear for months at a time: my income ain't what it used to be) but if you can only go to one place for the rest of your life for waxing, this is where you should go. She's the best.
