The front‑desk team always greets me by name, and there's a warmth and professionalism that sets the tone right away. Rena is the reason I keep coming back. She takes her time, explains everything clearly, and never tries to sell you on anything you don't need. Her approach is natural and grounded, and she creates an environment where you feel completely at ease. With a wide range of products, services and fair pricing, it's easy to find exactly what fits your needs. I always leave feeling taken care of and I book my next appointment before I walk out the door. I recommend City Laser SF wholeheartedly, especially Rena.

I got 3 sessions of regular microneedling done back in 2024. After researching a few different…read moremedispas, I chose City Laser because of the combination of RN staff as well as pricing (middle of the range). A package of 3 sessions cost $1350 - each session would normally be priced at $500, so $10% off with the package. As a previous reviewer wrote and what prompted me to add my own review, the whole session was haphazard. I am a microneedling veteran for over 5 years, and have been home-needling + one session at a dermatologist to address some old atrophic acne scars. I thought continuing professional treatments would be the key to seeing more improvements. Wild occurrences with Rena the owner include: being asked to put on my own numbing cream with no real instructions even after asking specific questions, no verbal explanation of what was being done or when we were starting, microneedling over my neck which I specifically said was NOT a focus area and thus did not put numbering cream on (ouch!), a total of less than 5 min of microneedling without changing depths over more severe scarring areas, and forgetting every time that I did not want blood drawn for PRP. Most of the appointment, which never lasted more than 30 min total including numbing cream self application and waiting for it to kick in, was Rena bragging about her kid and other clients who supposedly come to her exclusively (including calling out specifically trans and minorities like this was a collector's display case). I was seriously flabbergasted at what I was experiencing and wanted to finish my 3 sessions ASAP. Have seen no visible improvement after 2 years. Some of the mask and facial cream freebies were nice, but unfortunately not worth $1350! Highly recommend shelling out a bit more to go to a licensed dermatologist.

I've always been super scared about getting a Brazilian despite my relatively high pain tolerance. I decided to bite the bullet by booking with Erin after a long day at work. In all honesty, she made the experience so much easier and relaxing even despite the pain and discomfort that comes from these waxes specifically. Upon walking in, she instantly greeted me and was super welcoming. I used the bathroom before my wax to calm my nerves and walked into such a pretty and pink glittery bathroom! Not gonna lie, it was a pretty good distraction lol. Like any person would, I was pretty nervous but I decided to go for it because of the results. It was so worth it. It does hurt, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be. Your first wax always hurts the most because obviously you don't know what to expect, but it does get better after the first strip. I have to say though, what really helped ease my nerves was how chill the whole environment was. The staff makes every client feel welcome, and in my case Erin was super friendly, thorough, and overall such a vibe. It made the entire experience feel a lot less intimidating. They also have complimentary snacks and drinks and initially I passed on them because of how nervous I was, but after my session, best believe I ran to the snack station. As an SF native, I am proud to say that I will be returning to reWAXation as a regular! I am so glad I found this gem. Thank you to Erin and the team for making this experience so much less daunting and a bit more fun!

She is calm, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. I'm someone who tends to faint during blood draws or shots, but every time I've gotten Dysport from Haley, she has known exactly how to help prevent that. She has a wonderful bedside manner and does a great job keeping me calm, comfortable, and distracted, so I don't work myself up. She's also very quick, and the treatment is nearly pain-free, which I imagine takes real skill. On top of that, her work looks so natural, which I really appreciate. The clinic itself is very clean, and every staff member I've interacted with has been kind, understanding, and professional. Pricing is on the higher side compared with some other places, but in my experience, you really get what you pay for. They also have a rewards program, which is a nice bonus. Everything about Skin Spirit has gone above and beyond!

I've been seeing Maria for years and she is truly a gem. I completely wrecked my skin barrier at…read moreone point trying to DIY my skincare with too many actives, and my skin was constantly irritated and reactive. Maria helped repair my skin with personalized skincare recommendations and treatments, and my skin already looks and feels so much better. Her product recommendations are amazing, which says a lot because most products used to leave my skin worse off than before. She's also worked with me through two pregnancies and always tailors everything to what's safe and appropriate for that stage, which I really appreciate. Navigating skincare during pregnancy can be such a struggle and it feels so good knowing my skin can still look great during this stage of life. I've done Ulthera with her and had a great experience. The treatment itself can be a little stingy, but the care and attention she provides makes the whole experience feel incredibly supportive and almost spa-like. I still have more I want to do (BBL and Sculptra next!), and I trust her completely. Her own skin is glowing which is the best proof she knows exactly what she's doing. I can't recommend Maria enough. Thank you Maria, for all of your help!

The interior of Polished Nest gives off shabby chic vibes rather than the sterile uppity environment some nail shops can have. I don't really do gel or dip powder anymore for the health of my nails. While Polished Nest does offer these longer lasting options, they don't have the widest breadth of shades and finishes (e.g. jelly nails) but they are always nice about using colors I bring from home. I love that they are super responsive and communicative about appointments and their website is updated with the latest services/pricing. Even with a regular mani/pedi (not gel) I find my nails last at minimum 2 weeks! They must use a really great base/top coat! Their regular polishes are the standard Essie and Opi brands. As with most nail places they prefer a cash tip so make sure to bring some!

Unfortunately for the second time it was during the gua sha (haha) so I don't remember most of that part. My face was glowing both times. I like how they include tip in the price. I knocked off a star because they charge a $10 credit card fee but the cost is too high to be carrying cash for it. I have bought a Gua sha tool from them, specifically to help with pressure points and migraines. I also got an attar balm recommended by my aesthetician to help with my dry patches on my cheek. I recommend coming here to treat yourself!
