The clinic is spotless, modern, and very well organized. My provider was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain the process, answer all my questions, and make sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The treatment itself was quick, effective, and much easier than I expected. What really stood out was how attentive and friendly everyone was--no rushing, no pressure, just great care and great results. I'm already seeing improvements and couldn't be happier. Highly recommend LaserAway Carlsbad if you're considering laser treatments or aesthetic services. I'll definitely be back!

I have spent over $5000 in laser hair removal. And to note, I am a white, blonde female with not…read moremuch dark hair. In the over $5000 I have spent on laser hair removal, I have had zero results. It also took up a year of my life....going every 6-7 weeks. So no sun, tanning, etc for nearly a year! I sugar waxed for 10 years and had better results with that. I will be expecting some sort of compensation for my time and money. One year and five grand later is a lot to ask of somebody and give zero results.

Absolutely love Raiza at Avalon Laser! I went in for Dysport and was genuinely impressed by how…read moreprofessional, knowledgeable, and gentle she was throughout the entire process. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely at ease. The results were exactly what I was hoping for super natural, smooth, and refreshed-looking without that "frozen" effect. Raiza really has a great eye and a light touch. You can tell she truly cares about achieving subtle, balanced results that enhance your features rather than overdo them. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who's not only skilled but also kind, attentive, and detail-oriented :)

On June 21, 2025, I visited Avalon Laser to treat a few facial spider veins after seeing the…read moredoctor's work on social media and reading positive Google reviews. What I expected to be a routine cosmetic procedure unfortunately resulted in a much more difficult outcome for me (photos attached). Shortly after the treatment, leaky blisters formed, and about a week later they developed into scabs on the treated areas. When the scabs eventually came off, many areas appeared indented and concerning. During virtual follow-up consultations, I was told the healing process appeared to be normal. However, my skin continued to worsen, and I later sought care at an emergency room, where the injuries were documented as burns and I was referred for dermatologic follow-up. Avalon Laser offered additional treatment options, including a CO laser session or microneedling at their facility, and also suggested that I see a dermatologist in the Los Angeles area. I did undergo one CO laser session with Avalon Laser, but I ultimately decided not to continue treatment at the clinic because I no longer felt comfortable proceeding there. To their credit, the clinic checked in with me virtually on a regular basis and offered encouragement during the healing process. However, my recovery has been much longer and more challenging than I expected based on how my skin appeared. Since then, I have consulted with several specialists and undergone multiple treatments in an effort to improve my skin. The recovery process has been lengthy, painful, and uncertain. The clinic refunded the cost of the original treatment, which I appreciated, but it has not come close to covering the many additional medical visits, treatments, medications, and skincare products I have needed since then. The emotional impact has also been very difficult. For weeks I struggled to sleep and often cried at night. I became withdrawn and stopped seeing friends because I felt embarrassed about my appearance. What began as a simple cosmetic procedure has turned into a long and ongoing recovery. I attempted to pursue compensation through legal counsel and sent a demand letter, but I did not receive a response. I also followed up by email without success. I am sharing my personal experience so that others can be aware and carefully consider their options before undergoing treatment.

Other places go based off of trends or standard placement for injections. Ryann takes a deep look at your unique features and enhances them beautifully! Ryann keeps me grounded and provides results better than I thought. All faces and features are different and Ryann understands that. I've gotten forehead Botox for lines and lip filler and both have just been great. I feel refreshed after visiting Ryann, I will go where Ryann goes LOL. Also for reference, I'm 24yo female and have been going to revive for around a year now. Prices are competitive, space is clean. Office staff is super kind as well.

I am always blown away by her care, professionalism, and knowledge. She is also so sweet and fun, which makes the entire experience even better! PA Ryann does it all: Botox, filler (she's done my friends' lips and they always come out beautiful, natural and perfect), laser treatments including LHR, BBL, Moxi, and M8, and she also does GLP-1 and NAD+ injections. If you're looking for an injector or laser provider you can truly trust, Ryann is your go to girl!

I'm a 50yr old mom in Encinitas, who has visited multiple med spas. :) Unfortunately, I had a…read moreterrible experience at this spa. I went in for Botox and left with an immediate bruise, which turned into an enormous black eye the next day. Now, I've had slight bruising before, which I assume isn't uncommon, but this looked like I'd been in a boxing match. And it took over 2 weeks to go away. I understand mistakes happen, but the part that was the most disappointing, is that when I reached out to the owner, she took no responsibility, didn't offer any compensation and basically blamed me for the results. I am not someone who typically complains, and I've never left a negative review for anyone, but I was so shocked by the terrible customer service and complete disregard for my situation, that I felt others should know.

Update 4/25/26: I truly cannot say enough good things about Katie Martin. She is not only…read moreincredibly sweet and warm, but also highly skilled, detail oriented, and professional. From the moment I met her, she made me feel so comfortable and completely taken care of. I have seen her for Dysport and RF Microneedling (twice). She explains everything clearly, answers every question, gives you clear written after care instructions and you can just tell she genuinely cares about her patients and their results. What I appreciate most is how much she prioritizes safety. I've had to rebook appointments more than once, because I still had remnants of spray tan on my face and another time because of my tretinoin use. At the time it felt like a bummer, but it showed me how much she truly puts her patients first and will never cut corners. That level of integrity is rare and so appreciated. I trust her completely with my skin, I love my results afterwards and just highly recommend Katie. I also want to add an additional note about the sweet girls who also do my check-in/out. They are super friendly, so genuine and very helpful. I like to going and always seeing their familiar faces. Next time I'll remember to get their names.
