SELF CARE: TAKE TIME TO DO WHAT MAKES YOUR SOUL HAPPY…read more L'Ami has been my go-to spot for all my #self-care/skincare needs for almost 4 years now. I admire the extra mile Tina takes for each of her clients, & in return, keeps us wanting to come back! L'Ami has 2 locations, however, I have mostly been to her Santa Clara location, right off Steven's Creek. Her establishment is located w/in a larger one, so once you enter, you will immediately be entering a hair salon first, with her located on the right-hand corner. Inside, the establishment is very clean and well-kept. Immediately, you will receive a warm welcome from Tina & be offered water or tea, whichever you prefer. A quick side note: I REALLY love the tea cups they provide the tea in, they're absolutely gorgeous! Once Tina has finished prepping your room, she will escort you to it, where you can prepare for your session. Her rooms are very clean, tidy, well-temp'd, & smells great! I also love how comfortable the beds are, laying on it alone really makes me feel like a million bucks. Because all her sessions are by appointment only, you will never feel rushed & really feel like all the attention is just for you, which should always be the case. The below Services are my go-to's here at L'Ami: - Clear Acne Peel ($95+) Treatment specifically utilizes vitamins & a combination of natural acids that are multi-functional and works to control acne & regulate sebaceous glands. *This facial has been a lifesaver for me for when my skin decides to go haywire due to sudden environmental changes (wildfires, frequent travel, etc), a stressful work week, or for no reason whatsoever. - Deep Pore Cleansing Facial (60 min; $120) Perfect for problematic skin & congested pores. Antibacterial agents & extractions. Next, Antioxidant serums are used to nourish the skin followed by organic green tea and vitamin C mask is applied to soothe, purify, & leave the skin radiant. Finally, Photon LED Blue light has an anti inflammatory effect & can kill bacteria. *Perfect facial to clean out your pores & give your skin a good refresher. *If you wear heavy makeup on a daily basis, this peel is great for you to get that gunk deep out of your skin! - Microdermabrasion (diamond Peel) Treatment (30 min; $80) + w/ add on extraction $20 *PERSONALLY, MY #1 FAVE SERVICE OFFERED HERE* L'Ami's Microdermabrasion Treatment or Diamond Peel uses an innovative device that enables the performance of laser cut, diamond resurfacing treatments. The polishing action of a laser cut diamond tip is combined with the cleaning action of a vacuum to removes dead & damaged cells at the skin's surface, smooth skin & enhance facial glow. By eliminating these surface cells with microdermabrasion, the skin is left soft & supple while forcing the regeneration of new skin cells. *I work HARD so I could afford a damned good diamond peel microdermabrasion treatment, mainly here at L'Ami! *Having suffered from cystic acne throughout my childhood & into high school, I still deal with serious scarring/dips on my face where I once broke out. *The Diamond Peel, specifically, has slowly but surely began healing these scars & leaving my skin to look smoother, softer, & much more even looking. *I highly recommend this service to anyone who has had, or still is, suffering from cystic acne! **Now with the pandemic still rampant here in the Bay, my skin has been suffering greatly from the lack of this specific service due to L'Ami being closed :'(. Hoping they open back up SOON so I can book my appointments again STAT. - Whitening Facial (30 min; $90) + w/ add on whitening service neck/hands ($85 ea) For hyperpigmentation skin and/or dark, dull skin Zero chemicals. We use only *Natural* products. L'Ami's Lightening Signature Facial infused with Natural Licorice, Kojic Acid, Glutathione, and Vitamin C are the active ingredients for this treatment. Includes deep cleanse, enzyme fruit peel, facial massage with Skin-Lite Technology followed by Whitening Arbutin Mask and Photon LED Therapy to even out your skin tone. *Great service that is rarely offered anywhere else in the Bay Area. Also, the fact that this establishment uses ALL NATURAL products to brighten as opposed to dangerous/cancerous chemicals is another win-win. *Only caveat is that you would need to have several services spread out over a series of weeks to see results, BUT it's so worth it if you're trying to achieve a brighter, more even color throughout! *Combine this with additional products recommended by Tina & results will kick in even faster! After services are rendered, Tina will provide you with after care, as necessary, & then complete payment transaction, which here at L'Ami is quick and efficient AF. They accept cash, card, & even Venmo, which I love the most. Overall, a perfect place for self-care treatment & some really warm hospitality. Highly recommended, always. Look forward to coming back again as soon as they re-open!

With every one different I can surely say that mine was a little intense due to the heavy growth but with ice packs puffiness reduced within a few days. This is pretty normal. I have another 3 more to go and I can assure that yes it works. Neda works well around all the areas that need to be fixed and she double checks before each treatment is done to ensure the area is fully covered. The quality of the treatment and her professional expertise is one that goes a long way that I can highly recommend her to any future client that is thinking of laser hair removal.

She only works 5 days a month so her appointments are limited. Also, take note that there is limited parking here so be sure to show up a little early.

Their scheduling is often booked months in advance due to just how good they are! I have had services done by Beatriz and Danae. Both are very patient, kind, empathetic, and go above & beyond to be extremely accommodating. Electrolysis is not always comfortable or pain-free (especially if doing a Brazilian). Both will be sensitive to your needs: some sessions are done quietly (if you happen to be meditating through the procedure) or can strike up conversation to drive your attention elsewhere from the pain. Pro tip: invest in prescription numbing cream. Apply generously an hour before your procedure and place a plastic wrap to protect the numbing cream from being displaced everywhere. Pain may still be present, but largely reduced. When your procedure is done, they use this extremely soothing healing gel. It's beyond nourishing. And it's my favorite part of the experience! They also use some healing electrode--I'm not absolutely sure what it does, but believe me, Eden Electrolysis cares fully about your procedure DURING and AFTER. What sets Eden Electrolysis apart is they are women operated & owned. They also serve the LGBTQ+ community, including for surgery preparation (they are very proud of this fact...it's one of their headlines on their website). And have the most insightful conversations. You really feel compleyely comfortable in their hands! The space has a window looking directly at the Evergreen Hills (Lick Observatory), if that's important to you. Whatever your goals are, Eden Electrolysis will consistently meet them head-on!
