PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE. UNLAWFULLY OPERATED…read more The practice is run by a Physician Assistant (PA), but New York State law clearly states that PAs must work under the supervision of a licensed physician. When I asked to speak with their Medical Director, I was told they didn't have one. (Article 131-B of the New York Education Law governs the practice of physician assistants in the state.) The injector GiGi performed unauthorized treatments, including injecting Botox into my gummy lines--something I never requested or approved. When I returned to address the poor results, the PA had to step in to sternly direct the injector to only use half an injection to fix the Spock brow I had been left with. Despite these efforts, the results were far from satisfactory. My appearance resembled what can only be described as a "serial killer" smile. (See below pictures) They also convinced me to choose a "lip flip" instead of lip fillers, claiming it would help "quiet my facial muscles" before injections. It's unclear whether the resulting smile was caused by the lip flip or the unauthorized gummy line injections, but the outcome has been devastating. Even three months later, my smile is still not back to normal, despite being told that the effects would wear off quickly. The dismissive attitude that mistakes don't matter because "Botox wears off" is unacceptable. If a procedure's effects last for months, the least they can do is get it right the first time. Another alarming issue is their lack of transparency. While consent and waiver forms are uploaded to the online portal, they fail to include any documentation of the injection sites. This omission feels deliberate, and it makes me question what they might be trying to hide. On a personal level, this experience ruined what should have been a joyful time. I had just returned from a 10-month military deployment and was looking forward to reuniting with my loved ones. I wanted to look refreshed and less stressed, but instead, I ended up feeling self-conscious and unattractive. I even asked my boyfriend to delay proposing because I didn't want to look this way in engagement photos. It's heartbreaking that such a special moment had to be put on hold because of their carelessness. The staff assured me that what happened to me was rare and that the effects would subside quickly. However, after extensive research, I found only one similar case online, which confirms that my experience is far from normal.

Hormonal acne, during my pregnancy and now postpartum. When I started seeing her, my goal was to control and improve my acne. I have exceeded that goal and am now confidently rocking my skin makeup-free. Her knowledge of skin and how to care for it is extensive. She analyzes your skin and gives an in-depth recommendation on a home routine. She is judgment-free when I'm not consistent with my routine and helps me get back on track. She is worth every penny. With consistency, you will see improvement and enjoy every visit, as she is not only an amazing esthetician but also an even better human being.

Before I even arrived, she texted me the morning of with the office address how to get there and wish me safe travels. Once I was there, the space was incredibly clean light and airy, and she proved to be super knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. The appointment never felt rushed even though there was someone scheduled for right after me. She analyzed all my products that I brought & told me why certain ingredients should not be used. She then put the good ones in one pile the 'not so good' ones in another- I threw the 'not so good' ones out immediately and had no qualms about doing so by the end of our appointment together. Katerina got a sense of what my routines were (or weren't) and gave me some helpful suggestions that have since become staples in my routine and my skin is significantly better. I would certainly go back the next time I'm passing through the Albany, New York area.

My first experience at Kristin's was thanks to a groupon purchased by my wonderful fiance (then,…read moreboyfriend) for a massage, facial, and manicure. The time came where the groupon had nearly expired -- given that I am a terrible procrastinator -- and Kristin worked VERY hard with me to find a time where I could come in. All of the services that I received were exceptional, and although I haven't had my hair done by Kristin yet, she is a kind and welcoming individual who always seems glad to see me. Since that first time, I have been in every couple of months for one person in particular: Amy, the aesthetician of my dreams. Amy is my guru, my hero, my Yoda. When I first came in, I had (with all of the best of intentions) completely destroyed my skin. I had been using various products I knew very little about in an attempt to treat my acne which had actually happened as a result of the astringent products I was using making my face extremely sensitive! To hide this from others I was piling foundation and concealer onto my face, which prevented any kind of healing. Amy knew instantly what was wrong and had all sorts of recommendations to make. Every day my skin looks better, and each time I go to Kristin's her smile shows me how drastic the change has been. In fact, with the exception of a tinted SPF I have been using, I have almost completely ceased to use make-up. I don't need it! My skin is incredible! Although everyone at Kristin's will make your day and make you feel fabulous, I cannot recommend Amy's services highly enough. My sister (also an aesthetician) had been telling me for months to find a professional and get real advice about my skin, and her advice led me to this person who made a HUGE difference in my self-image and confidence. Go to Kristin's! As soon and as often as possible!!! You will not regret this decision!

She started late,…read moreended early and was literally huffing and puffing during the session (not very relaxing for anyone) she also didn't use any pressure and it was obvious she must have had a long day because she was rushing and hardly applying any pressure which I had paid extra for. The gm Tim had called us after I placed a review and claimed he would get us another session but nothing ever came of that... just steer clear of this place and go to a private massage therapist instead. This chain just wants your money and doesn't give a damn if you leave feeling relaxed or refreshed. Would do zero stars if we could.

The morning of, Massage Envy called to cancel my husband's appointment. He was the whole reason we were even doing this. When I tried to call to cancel my appointment, I spent an hour getting transferred around and having no one pick up (someone must have been there to have called and cancelled my husband's appointment). When I finally did speak to someone, she said I was going to have to pay the cancellation fee even though they were the ones who cancelled one of the appointments. I understand having a cancellation fee policy, but this woman was rude and completely unhelpful. After she hung up on me, I started the whole process again of calling back. I finally got through to someone who took care of it after apparently the first woman talked to her. I had reservations about going to a chain like this in the first place, and this proves why. Terrible customer service and completely ruined the fun outing for my husband's day and took hours of my morning away.
