If you are thinking about tattoo removal, Evolve is the place you want to go. Seriously. I am…read morepretty critical about businesses that have to do with making clients feel comfortable when in a vulnerable state and I am so impressed by my first interaction with Evolve. Look, I`m in my 40s now and have some wisdom, but in my 20s, I was getting tattooed without really thinking about the artists skill or if I really, truly wanted the tattoo. Now that I`m older, I`m in phase two of my tattoo journey, which includes both covering up some pieces and now, removing some pieces either as a full removal(or as close to it) or lightening. Thus my journey with Evolve has begun. I had my consultation and first session with Mary today. I had no idea I was going to go through with a session on the spot, but after talking with Mary and feeling really comfortable and pleased with the information I received, the professionalism, and Mary's good nature and attitude, I went ahead and dove in head first. I went to talk about 3 different areas I wanted to work on and ended up staying to work on the bigger piece on my back. Go big or go home. Really, though, I should have started with a smaller piece because I`m not going to lie, laser tattoo removal is painful. Yes, your mileage may vary and it will depend on the size and area of the tattoo, but truthfully, it is no walk in the park. Mary was incredibly kind and sensitive to the pain involved with this process. They have numbing cream if you need it and with the laser, you get a nice arctic blast of air over the area. I have a lot of tattoos all over, and this was spicier than I thought. The care that Evolve places on their process and the passion they perform their work with is unmatched and you will be in the best hands during your sessions. Need to take a lot of breaks? Totally fine. Communicate and you will be met with kindness and understanding because this is not a comfortable process. I will provide an update as I go along my journey. I want to schedule my next session, for my smaller pieces, and get those going as well. Appointments are easy to schedule, you get text and email reminders, and the part that everyone wants to know about: Pricing. VERY reasonable. I did one consultation at another place a couple of years ago and said forget it because of the insane(in my opinion) cost per session for a very small piece. You won't know how many sessions you will need, of course, but they sometimes have specials or package deal that will take a bit extra off of already doable pricing. The only minor note I have is that parking can be tricky. This is not Evolve's fault. It is the nature of the area. So, may the force be with you. Get there early and you might have to do a little walking.

Short answer: No, do not recommend…read more Long answer: Wanted to find a dermatologist closer to home. I saw Amy Ellsworth, a PA, for my alopecia areata. She came and left in less than 5 minutes. Granted, my case isn't that complex since its not a new thing to me but I am a new patient to her so you would expect a little more such as getting a thorough patient history, establishing a new relationship, and perhaps see if there's any other treatment or suggest other solutions. I told her about the 2 new alopecia spots I have on my head. She didnt sterilize the area and then seemed to not inject the second spot. I had to remind her of the second area, which was the more serious alopecia spot that needed to be treated. Afterwards when I got home, I checked in the mirror and she injected an area many times that caused more redness than I've ever experienced before. Decided to go back to my original dermatologist that's further away to get reevaluated and reinjected as I felt I didn't get proper treatment. My clinician said she could see the bruising caused by the previous injection given. Would not recommend this clinician or this practice.

I have wrestled with the idea of microblading for over 2 years. As a professional, I like to look…read morefresh faced and not overdone. Most days at 5am, trying to get eyebrows to look symmetrical was such a chore, and I was tired of spending so much time and money on a million different eyebrow/makeup products. Despite my frustration, I was absolutely terrified to do microblading for the following reasons: 1) fear of "tattoo green" looking eyebrows 2) afraid it would affect my eyebrow hair growth 3) it was permanent forever 4) the artist would pick the wrong shape. I researched over 150 microblading artists, even in different states, because it was important to me to pick the right artist for my needs. Then I found Binx! Charlene is a p e r f e c t i o n i s t! She made sure my eyebrows look so natural! Just what I was hoping for. She educated me on everything. Microblading is semi-permanent and typically lasts about two years. Touch ups are recommended every few months as needed. It also does not affect hair growth. My new eyebrows only require minimal grooming. There was absolutely no pain, and the color was perfect! It was so subtle, even my closest friends didn't notice it was microblading! If you are on the fence, Charlene is your girl!

This level of disorganization and lack of communication is incredibly unprofessional, especially in a medical office where patients often arrange time off work, transportation, and schedules around appointments. The front desk staff showed little accountability for the inconvenience caused. A simple phone call or message informing patients of cancellations is basic courtesy and should be standard practice. Unfortunately, this experience reflected very poorly on the clinic's professionalism and customer service.
