    Maggie O.

    **FACE CUT FROM DERMAPLANING** I tried out the $70 intro offer treatment and it was a custom treatment format. My esthetician recommended dermaplaning and I think it was Tatiana who did my treatment. She was going a bit rough while dermaplaning but I didn't think much of it. When she reached the right side of my face I felt her pull some skin up and I think that's when it got cut. It was stinging for a bit after when she applied the product and she didn't say anything after dermaplaning so I thought it was just the product. Fast forward and I see my boyfriend and he is checking my face out when he notices the cut. It is fresh still from the facial as you can see in the picture. They also take you to a room after your treatment where you are basically pressured into buying plans with the clinic through a salesperson and their sales pitch. The guy I was speaking to was Isaac. I was intrigued at first and wanted to know pricing, but after the constant pushing to just get me to buy something when I mentioned multiple times I would need to think about it first, I was pretty set on not buying anything from the clinic. This sales pitch may work other people who feel inclined to give in, but if you don't want to buy anything make sure to stand your ground! They told me they offered plans for totals of $2-3k and upward depending on what treatments they recommend and they use Affirm to splice these payments up so it doesn't seem like much. However it's still around $250 per treatment. This is a lot of money they are pressuring you to sign for right then and there. I would not trust them to do dermaplaning again and so glad I didn't fall into buying one of their plans!

    My skin , its so soft and glowing

    I came across this place on Instagram, I saw a friend of mine followed them so I thought I'd give it a try. From the moment I walked in they were greeting me and asked me if I needed anything water coffee, etc. didn't even make me wait more than five minutes. I had a gentleman. I think he was a manager bring me in and tell me a little about what they do and what kind of packages they have he wasn't overly trying to sell me and actually the prices were very reasonable. I have gone to do promo facials and they try to upsell you for thousands. He was not like that.. The packages were very reasonable and such a good deal it was hard to say no , then I went in for the facial and I met this wonderful lady named Carolina, right from the gecko she was so sweet and comforting. The facial began and let me tell you, her hands were like magical she massaged my face and neck with cleanser and creams, she's very in tune with the body and she really truly cares about what she's doing. You can tell every step of the way. And it was probably about 45 minutes. It wasn't a fast one. She took her time no rush rushing. I could've stayed there for hours. I was so relaxed and comfortable. I used to think every facial was the same ( feeling) . I have learned it is not.!! I cannot wait to come back and see her I will be 100% coming back for Carolina!!

    Sasha was a skilled esthetician. Her massage technique was wonderful. The Avinichi products were excellent. Highly recommend you go there.

    ARIANNA IS MY GO-TO!…read more My experience with Botoxie was exceptional from the very beginning. My first interaction was a telephone inquire with Ashley at the North County location, who was incredibly informative and friendly. Even though she wasn't a provider, she took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel completely comfortable. Based on that experience, I booked with Arianna at the North Park location. After nearly two decades with the same med spa, switching providers felt like a big decision--but I couldn't be happier that I did! ***Arianna's background in plastic and cosmetic surgery is evident in both her knowledge and technique. She's highly skilled, stays current on the latest advancements in facial balancing, contouring, and rejuvenation, and delivers beautiful, natural-looking results. I genuinely feel like I look 10 years younger, my friends have noticed the change. Just as important, she's genuinely fun to be around! She's personable, authentic, and somehow makes me feel fabulous--even when I've shown up twice hungover and bloated all over. Her kindness and compliments make every appointment feel like catching up with a friend...one I happily pay. I also appreciate that Botoxie schedules a follow-up appointment to ensure your results are perfect and to make any necessary touch-ups. My previous med spa offered this in theory, but Botoxie truly makes it part of their standard of care. -------My only wish was that Botoxie provided monthly specials (bundles, discounts, etc.) as my last location did and/or more enticing membership options.

Cathy will listen to your concerns while also studying your face at the same time, and by the time your appointment is over, Cathy has whispered to all your trouble spots, and with a needle prick, those lines have been "whispered" away. Yep, see what I did there? Shout out to the amazing front desk staff. The entire office is amazing, but those gems at the front desk make all the magic happen. I had an issue not too long ago with scheduling and true to form, Cathy was booked solid (because, yes, she is that good). The team rallied together and got me in. Highly recommend.

    My service was with Rhea, and I had a deep facial cleanse followed by a chemical peel. She did an…read moreexcellent job explaining each step of the process, which made me feel comfortable and informed throughout the treatment. Before starting, Rhea carefully assessed my skin and gave me honest recommendations about what my skin needed--and what it didn't. I really appreciated her personalized approach. The chemical peel was temporarily uncomfortable, but it was absolutely worth it. I've already been getting compliments on how great my skin looks! The recovery took about three days. During that time, it was important to stay out of the sun and keep my skin well-moisturized with Aquaphor. As I applied the Aquaphor, my skin gradually began to peel, the peeling was happening a lot faster on day 3. If you're considering a chemical peel, I recommend planning your schedule around the recovery period and following the aftercare instructions closely, since your skin will be very delicate. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend Rhea.

    I don't often write reviews, but Avalon Laser has consistently exceeded my expectations and…read moreabsolutely deserves one. I want to give a special shout-out to Dr. Tirgari and his outstanding team, especially Laleh and Raiza. I've had several cosmetic skin treatments with them over the year, and I've been extremely happy with both the experience and the results. Without getting into too many personal details, I've noticed a meaningful improvement, and it's clear they genuinely care about helping their patients look and feel their best while maintaining natural-looking results. What truly sets Avalon Laser apart, though, is the people. Dr. Tirgari, Laleh, Raiza, and the entire staff are simply good people who take pride in doing good work. You can tell they genuinely enjoy helping people feel more confident in their own skin. There is never any pressure, upselling, or high-pressure sales tactics--just honest recommendations based on what they believe is right for you. When they do offer promotions, they're genuinely competitive and a great value. Listen, no matter where you go, cosmetic treatments are highly individualized, and results will naturally vary from person to person. But if you're looking for a team that will take the time to understand your goals, treat you with honesty and respect, and do everything they can to help you achieve the best results possible, I can't recommend Avalon Laser highly enough.

I saw this laser place was advertising a free first session so I booked with low expectations. I saw that it was a beautiful little shop so I thought, what could go wrong? Everything else. I made an appointment after struggling with their website to make a payment. Then, I was able to fit an appointment into my busy day. Not even 24 hours before my appointment, SEV messages me that there was an issue with my appointment and that they needed to reschedule me. None of the time slots they offered would work. I work 12 hour night shifts that end at 7am so when they proposed 1010, I made an exception and said that I would stay awake to make the appointment. No confirmation. It's extremely unprofessional to not only cancel less than 24 hours before the appointment, which is against their policy, but to also offer an appointment time right when they open and to not confirm it before closing for the day. I stayed in the downtown area after my shift for 3 hours to wait for this appointment after being given the impression that the appointment time would be saved for me but they informed me that they would not be able to accommodate me until 6pm. I was exhausted and flabbergasted. When I asked if they could do anything to make the situation better, they just told me that I should make an appointment for another day. No coupon for compensation, nothing. The place is in a very inconvenient area, located right next to petco park with no good parking and I definitely did not feel safe walking around by myself. So I will not be returning again to be met with inconsistency and subpar service. After reading the other reviews, this is not an isolated situation. It is a pattern. Do not trust a business like this with your body. Laser treatments are expensive but there is a reason why.
