    Connie B.

    My husband is an MD. All the physicians in the area trust Blue Water Spa for themselves and for their family members that's enough for me. But, if that were not enough, I love the way that I am treated. In this world of everything being about turn and burn, I really appreciate the high level of service I receive at Blue Water Spa. Everyone is so professional and smart and not only that, but no one is pushy and I really appreciate the way they work together as a team. I look younger now than I did five years ago and I can attribute that to the amazing services I have received at Blue Water Spa. My favorite service has got to be microneedling. But I guess it may be the plan I'm on of shifting and changing procedures to keep my skin looking great. The other thing I love about Blue Water Spa is that n one would guess that I've had any filler or Botox. I look good. I mean as Joey Valence and Brae would say I look good. I look really good! But I also look totally natural. My skin does glow a little more than other people my age. But you'd never guess that I have filler or Botox. I'm really really happy with my results

    I've had Botox at Blue Water Spa and couldn't be happier with the results. Everything looks smooth, natural, and refreshed, never overdone. I appreciate their conservative approach and attention to detail, which makes all the difference. It's another low-maintenance option that gives noticeable results and boosts my confidence without changing how I look. I trust them completely and wouldn't go anywhere else!

    I was referred to Blue Water Spa and to be fair, I didn't have a problem with the employees or facility. I must say they have a beautiful facility and everyone is very pleasant. The Aesthetic Nurse Injector was very sweet. I question the Botox that was used on me. During my consultation I was told that I would need 16 units at $14.50 which would equal $232. I also received an email with the same information. Instead I spent over $400. The first times I went in the nurse did approximately 6 units of Botox. Mostly focusing on eyebrows and 3 frown lines in forehead. It seemed to work fine. November 1st I had more done which cost more than $300 and it did not work. She focused mostly on the forehead and between the eyebrows. I contacted the nurse by email and informed her that the Botox did not work. She suggested I come in to have it done again because sometimes they get faulty vials. I went in a second time and it still did not work (see photos). I contacted her again by email to let her know it still didn't work and she suggested that I come back in and this time she would use dysport. Because Botox is not a very comfortable process and I was afraid it may not work the third time, I suggested maybe using the money that I had paid for Botox to be used for another service they offered and/or consultation with the doctor for plastic surgery. I never received a response or follow up from her to resolve the issue or provide a solution. The unfortunate part to all of this is that whatever was injected into my skin made my forehead look rough with bumps and it seems like I have way more wrinkles in my forehead now than before getting Botox. See the pictures which were taken 2 weeks and a month after Botox. What's unfortunate is that I really liked the location and the people. I had planned to continue using them for other services as well. But I am disappointed they have chosen not to resolve this matter. It has caused me to question whether or not, I was being injected with anything during my last visits. I would suggest carefully reading their contract because it may indicate that if their products don't work, they don't have to reimburse you.

    After second treatment

    Blue Water Spa permanently disfigured my face and refuses responsibility. In May of 2021, I suffered a visible and permanent facial defect as a direct result of cosmetic filler treatments I had at Blue Water Spa from employee Mari Lippig. Two separate physicians have confirmed that the injury was a result of her poor technique. During my first appointment, Mari suggested filler below my cheekbones. I agreed to 2 vials. In the middle of the treatment, Mari suggested 2 more vials. I was in pain and distracted, but I agreed, for a total cost of $3,200.00. During the treatment, the left side proceeded with bearable discomfort, but when she moved to the right side, there was such intense pain that I nearly fainted. Mari stopped the procedure, adjusted the chair to lay me flat, elevated my feet, and got me a can of juice. (I have never had this happen when receiving filler from other providers.) Mari's demeanor after this incident changed. She appeared nervous and distracted and quickly completed my treatment and rushed me out of the room. Although still faint from the procedure, I paid and left. When I arrived home and looked in the mirror, I saw a deep linear furrow and large indentation below the right cheekbone in the area where I received treatment from Mari. Alarmed, I decided to wait a few days, hoping the appearance would improve, but it worsened daily, so I called Blue Water Spa early in the morning of Wednesday, May 5th. I was given Mari's email address, and I sent her a photo of my right cheek area and voiced my concerns. Mari responded and told me that what I was experiencing was normal, and would resolve within two weeks when the swelling subsided. I made a follow-up appointment for Wednesday, May 19th at 2:00. When I arrived for the appointment, Mari became nervous and flustered after looking at my right cheek area. She said she would fix it with more filler. When she finished, she said "it looks great" but did not show it to me. Mari took numerous photos, which she also did not show to me, and she again rushed me out. Upon arriving home, I could see that not only was the problem NOT resolved, but had been worsened. Two photos from Thursday, May 20th clearly show a linear defect straight from the cannula entry point. Clearly, there was further damage from the second treatment. On the 20th, frightened by the appearance on the day after the second procedure, I sent a summary to my physician, who responded that there was definitely a problem. I made an appointment for June 18th to find options for treatment to repair the damaged area. Friday, June 18th, my doctor examined the area and advised me that more filler might help to camouflage the damage created by Mari. In addition to the $3,200 I spent at Blue Water, I expended an additional $1,300 on Friday, June 18th toward correcting this issue, which did not resolve it. My physician then suggested I take action against Blue water Spa as the injury did not appear repairable. Mari never followed up with me after the second treatment on May 19th. My doctor said it was extremely unethical to upsell me in the middle of performing a painful procedure. Mari was well aware that she damaged my face, ergo her demeanor at the end of my first procedure and during the second. Over the ensuing weeks and months, all I requested from Blue Water Spa was a refund for the filler treatments and the cost of the further treatment necessary to try and cover the injury. They refused, despite my physician sending them two letters that their employee's actions caused me an injury that was apparently permanent. I am posting this three years later because I still have a visible injury and Blue Water Spa of Raleigh has denied responsibility for it. I did not request anything excessive from them - only to refund me the money I paid for this horribly-botched job for which I was told there were grounds for a lawsuit by a personal injury attorney I consulted. I hope reading this will help you to make an informed decision.

    I just had lip filler at Blue a Water Spa with a Nurse Practitioner named Ashley. I had zero pain. Actually the Pronox she used was awesome. It took the edge off to say the least. My lips already look amazing and I have no bruising. I got 1 syringe only and it looks perfect. Ashley told me that I may want more after the swelling goes down so I scheduled a follow up to see I loved that she totally listened to me and just what I wanted. I didn't want my upper lip to look to full. I'm really happy right now The place is so clean and pretty. They had people opening the doors so I never had to touch a door handle and people were cleaning the waiting area. There was a card in the Botox room showing that the room had just been cleaned. It was nice. I waited I'm a private waiting room behind a water feature. I will go back for my follow up appointment and post to see if I get more filler or keep what I have. I'm hoping I need more so I can get more filler!!

    Bad results and no accountability to correct the mistakes. Just want more money to fix their failures.

She proceeded to start injecting my smile line with just a little bit of one syringe left and put the filler next to my smile line instead of inside my smile line and said she was putting in more filler in my lips for hydration. I feel like that was a waste of my filler because I wasn't asking for more hydration. The next time I went, the new injector, I saw was amazing, but I feel like we ran out of filler before finishing my smile lines due to the previous injector, wasting the filler on things that I did not need and putting it not where I wanted it. She also had a not so welcoming attitude as I had multiple questions with it being my first time. Due to her wasting filler my smile lines was not finished and my lips don't even look that great. Probably would have continued my treatments there if my emails and text to the nurse would have been responded to and they tried to make it right but being ignored is a good way to get a bad reputation! You see responses to the other bad reviews saying get in touch with them but no contact information, no compensation for peoples time and what they put people through. Don't believe responses until u see them compensating people for their behavior! It's all about money to them. I don't like my lips or my smile lines and still having to pay.

    Synopsis - Amazing staff made this an amazing experience…read more I went in with some skin concerns that I had been reluctant to get taken care of. Finally broke down and set up an appointment online, got the vast majority of my paperwork and questionnaires out of the way online, and booked it. To be able to get all of those things out of the way ahead of heading to the appointment was so nice. The staff at the center were all amazing. From the wonderful receptionists, to Dari (sorry if I spelt it wrong) who was my assistant and Suzanne Craven who took care of my skin issues--it was amazing. They were thoughtful, listened, provided their expertise and advice, and cared. I truly cannot say enough good things about this whole experience for me. It'll be the only place I ever go to for anything dermatology related in the future, no doubt about it. 5 Cleared Up Stars out of 5!
