Her little studio is lovely and she put me at ease right away. Lynn took time to truly understand what I was looking for and why, to explain the process, to allow my eyes to "rest" and to help me feel calm. I have sensitive skin but I had very little discomfort with Lynn in charge. After a year, I still love waking up and looking in the mirror and not seeing that totally washed-out look. I can run out the door and feel confident! I highly recommend Lynn to anyone!

Thank you,Sam, for a truly remarkable experience on your table!!!

He was the only masseuse available for the time I needed, I didn't have a preference. Parking can be a little limited if looking for free, but there's 2 paid public parking lots on the other side of the railroad tracks which is only a short walk away. They had a walk-in that ran late so the room I was going to be was occupied so I had to wait about 15mins past my appointment time, but the receptionist was kind. There's a room that's in the lobby area, which was mine and I was nervous about how loud it would be because there was also work being done on the railroad tracks which are right next to the building. They quickly turned over the sheets when the appointment before me was over. The overall massage was good, Vincent had different techniques than what I was used to that helped with my trigger points. I'm not sure if he ran out of time though or if this was just his style but he didn't massage my arms or neck area when I was laying on my back. He did spend a long time on my back though which was helpful because that's where most of my tension was. I also liked that he didn't do the exact same thing on each side, it felt truly customized to where my tension was and what my body needed. He used hot towels too, which were a nice touch to help relax my muscles. He also provided me some neck stretches I can do to help release tension. They have a lot of masseuses to choose from both women and men. Overall, I enjoyed my massage!

I'm super…read moredisappointed, But that being said, she deletes her Google and yelp reviews so it's hard to do accurate research. I am very saddened that I wasted over $1000 on this, when I was left with absolutely nothing that I wanted and nothing even remotely close to what she portrays on her social media. While it has been a year now I feel safe sharing an updated photo of how awful things turned out, despite me following instructions to a T.

First I want to comment on her customer friendly website, which is very easy to navigate thru, and packed full of education and information! You could not leave her website and feel uninformed, it is beyond adequate about procedures, cost, who may or may not be a good candidate for her services! It is one of the best I have ever been on, for a company that offers professional services! That being said, I booked my apt online and was able to get in within ten days! Again all the info that you would ever need is on her website with do's and dont's prior to your apt, for a successful procedure! I have wanted to have permanent makeup on my eyebrows for awhile, to say I was anxious is an understatement! With the amazing reviews and pictures of her work, along with individuals I personally know that had been very pleased with her work, is what gave me the courage to book this apt. At my first meeting with Morgan, she is so calm, so professional, so full of knowledge and education within her practice, you can't but feel safe and comfortable in her hands! I honestly answered majority of her questions about what I wanted with, You decide, I feel very confident in your recommendations!!! With Morgan's knowledge and talent, she knew far better than I what would look best! Everything about her studio was beautiful, super clean, organized, professional and calming! By the time she said we were ready to start, I was so relaxed and confident with her, I literally fell asleep during the process! To the point she had to wake me more than once, for moving in my sleep. The final time she did so, was to say we were finished, and she was handing me a mirror. My first thought was, oh my gosh, she has taken me back 15 years (so near to how my brows used to look, only better!) I can't say my whole face looked that much younger, oh how I wish, but my brows definitely were much more youthful and beautiful! I have to say at this point, I am 59 yrs old, I state this because of a review left on here warning anyone over 50 should beware of getting services by Morgan! That warning I wholeheartedly disagree with! When you leave her studio you are fully equipped with product, and written material on how to care for your brows and fully what to expect day by day! There were no surprises whatsoever, a few times I looked back over the info and even pictures she supplied preparing you on what to expect, I had not one question for it is ALL given to you! I have just completed my perfecting session a few days ago, and I can't wait for my whole healing process to be finished. For I want to see the final full beautiful brows I know I have now!! I can not begin to fully describe the level of professionalism Morgan has, her amazing natural talents, the superior skill in her trade, and top notch customer service with remarkable bedside manner!! I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone, no matter your age! If someone states they were not handed a mirror, or had questions unanswered, I find that very very hard to believe actually! Possibly they are not recalling all the details accurately, idk. For myself, I can not comprehend any of this happening truthfully, it is so far off from any of the experiences I have had with her.

I consulted with many NYC plastic surgeons who all wanted to perform very invasive brow lift surgery, I did not need brow lift surgery just a singular eyebrow lift. Dr. Kaltreider was the only oculoplastic surgeon I could find who did direct brow lifts. Her office manager Cynthia was so helpful and knowledgeable and really one of the nicest people you will ever meet! Dr. Kaltreider and her nurse Jonni are so nurturing and caring and I felt totally comfortable and confident that I was going to have the best results and I did! Dr. Kaltreider really listened to me and did exactly what I wanted. She made sure I felt no pain and communicated with me the entire time. Jonni made certain to assist the doctor and keep me comfortable as well. It was almost like a spa treatment. I also had a small amount of xeomin placed in between my brows and Dr. Kaltreider placed only where I wanted. I totally understand that anytime you have a procedure where skin is cut you will have a scar and I was willing to trade a small scar for corrected eyebrow position, however, even after a few days my results look amazing and I know if I need any touchup or scar treatment that Dr. Kaltreider will do everything necessary to correct. I am so happy with my result and will travel from NYC to Virginia to see Dr. Kaltreider, Jonni and Cynthia for all my future eye and eyebrow maintenance. They are so warm and genuine and caring and I highly recommend anyone to go there!

Stay Away-charlatans-- These people are only interested in money. We did not even have an…read moreappointment with them, we are seeing an GYN doctor and on our way out they asked us if we wanted information. We said sure. We had no idea that information was going to cost over 600 dollars. They never once said it was an office visit, because it was not, they never once told us we would be charge anything. We were clear we were not going to pay anything for information. We have insurance but we were not sure if it would cover it. We told them from the start we were not willing to do anything till we knew about the insurance and I had to research more about what she was telling me I needed. She told me 50 percent of my vision was being impaired by my eyelid by a 3 minute test they give. She coached me on how to take the test. They brought us into another room and had us fill out papers they said "was only for insurance pre-approval". We told them then and with followup calls I was not sure I wanted any procedure and I would decide after I spoke to my insurance and did my own research. When I first saw the doctor I asked her if she had her eyebrows done she said no, I asked her assistant Lois and she said yes she did and so did the doctor. Why did the Doctor lie about her eyebrows? I began to feel uneasy with the situation and called in to let them know I was not comfortable with any of this. My husband called in about the bill we received and by the Assistant and the Doctor herself they both said "why does it matter you not paying it the insurance is". The problem is we were never told about any charge and the doctor told me by phone "its curious you want to know everything that is going on". That was the final straw and I cancelled everything with them, reported them to my insurance, reported them to Sentara, and Im reporting her to the medical board. The only thing these people care about is do as many surgeries as possible and make all the money you can and bill the insurance without the patient knowing what they are being billed for. I have found a new doctor and Im very pleased with her. I will post here as soon as I see her with the results of by eye light test and I bet it will not be 50 percent as Sara Kaltreider claimed. I will also see if I need Blepharoplasty upper eyelift and the brow Ptosis. After research and speaking to other medical professionals I was told that i did not need blepharoplasty but the eyebrow Ptosis would suffice. I called the office told Lois this and they pushed and pushed that I would need the Blepharoplasty too. I will find out for sure with my new doctor because I do trust the new doctor. I would not trust Sara Kaltreider with surgery or anything else. I found her to be dishonest and uses womens insecurities to capitalize on them. Well this woman is not insecure and I have only the interest of my vision. I suggest you search around. If you want someone who cares about you and not the money then stay away from Sara Kaltreider and her office minions. I have uploaded the bill that we never were told anything about and the eye test she gave me. In January I will see my new doctor and I will post the comparison. Till then, stay away from this place. Get a second opinion.
