    Five stars for Karina at Gold Coast Aesthetics! She is seriously the best--super knowledgeable, honest, and always takes the time to explain what each product or treatment does. I've had Daxxify, Radiesse filler, PRF gel, and a chemical peel done with her, and every single time I've left feeling amazing. What really sets her apart is that she gives real advice--never pushy, always thoughtful. Her office is warm, inviting, and just a fun place to be. It doesn't feel like a stuffy med spa--it feels like you're visiting a friend who also happens to make you look fabulous. Highly, highly recommend her!

    I came in here for Botox She talked me into Daxxify She told me I would look beautiful I was so nervous she said I have nothing to worry about. I will have great results. I said, are you sure she said yes. Photos attached This doctor should not be touching anyone My eye left brow is so high raised. I have headaches. And now, after days later, I can barely open my eye Look at how bad this is I'm in a deep depression and cannot stop crying This doctor was so convincing Look at my face now

    Right after the treatment

    Let's talk about how cute this facility is down in CDM! Love the look and everything is clean and organized. I did the microneedling with PRF as well as the JUVÉDERM. Here are some pics from it. Karina is absolutely amazing at what she does and can't wait to see how my progress goes

    Before: indentation a couple inches below my eye.

    I found Gold Coast Aesthetics on Instagram and I'm so glad I did. The personalized service you receive from Katrina and Bella is the best! They arent pushy like a lot of places and I appreciate that they prefer a more natural look vs something over the top that other places push for the sake of a sale. I have had Microneedling done and Xeomin for wrinkles. I also had a line under my eye that was bothersome but I avoided correcting it for awhile since I was afraid injecting near that area would cause damage or look super "fake". I spoke to Karina about my concern and she suggested filler. I went ahead with it and I am so happy I did. The indentation is gone and everything went smoothly. I am so happy I found Gold Coast.

    Pic to the right was before any treatments. The after (left) was after multiple treatments over a span of one year. Mostly for an overall facial balancing: - Lip filler - Mid cheek and outer cheek filler - Chin filler - Smile line filler and PRF - PRF under eyes -PDO threads - Smooth Threads - Tox- brow lift, crows feet, elevens, chin dimples, platysma bands, TMJ (the best). All in all, I've loved my results and the precise detail Karina puts in her work and assessment! I will never go anywhere else! Don't look anywhere else! Thank you Karina for the amazing natural results. See you soon! :)

    Just went to Karina for my first time receiving Botox. My girlfriend has been seeing her and recommended her to me after being with Karina for a couple years! I was nervous, but after seeing all of the work she has been doing on Yelp and Instagram I booked an appointment and went in! I am so glad I went! Karina was amazing she listened to exactly what I wanted, explained everything she was going to do, and it was painless. I couldn't have asked for a better first experience. I am so happy with my results it's the perfect natural result I was looking for. I will definitely be back and only going to Karina. Another loyal patient!

    Karina is amazing! She really takes the time to care and treat her clients. I am so glad I found her to help me with my journey. Karina and her amazing staff make you feel like family once you walk through the door. Hands down I will recommend Karina to everyone.

    Karina was amazing. She walked me through every process. This was my first time getting Botox and it was for my severe TMJ that has been bothering me for years. She gave me the relief I was looking for and I'm already feeling so much better. She made me feel at ease and most importantly she was honest about everything she thought I needed. The facility is very clean as well. I will definitely be coming back to see her again. I highly recommend!

    I have come to Gold Coast Aesthetics a few times for different treatments including PRF hair, Skincare, and Xeomin. The attention to detail is the best. I never feel pressured or upsold. The clinic is small but clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a friendly med spa. They have underground parking too!

    Thank you so much to Karina! The dark circles under my eyes have always bothered me, so I went to Karina and she recommended PRF gel under my eyes. Her consultations are very thorough and she educated me on doing PRF versus filler. I had minimal discomfort during the whole procedure. 100% recommend Gold Coast Aesthetics!

    Yessi H.

    Karina is just absolutely amazing. She has many years of experience. I have been going to her since she was injecting in Newport Beach. I am super excited that she opened up her own practice! She basically gave me a whole tune up for such a reasonable price! I got some lip fillers, she did PRF to treat my under eye circles. My favorite treatment was the injections she administered around my jaw.. I am a HORRIBLE teeth grinder and this has provided some relief, I don't grind anymore and my jaw doesn't hurt In the morning.

    Fillers!
    Amy T.

    .Karina and Bella are amazing. Very knowledgeable and professional. The office is clean and I had minimal pain for Xeomin to help with TMJ pain, and Lip fillers. I drive from Los Angeles to OC since it's difficult to find someone who emphasizes natural results

    I've had a Belle Vie membership for over a year, and my main reason for keeping it was Jasmine…read more I've been coming to Belle Vie for the past 3 years and always had great experiences with her. Unfortunately, after Jasmine left Belle Vie, I decided to give NP Jessica a try since I still had my membership. After my experience today, I can confidently say I will not be going back. I got AquaGold microneedling done today and felt very undermined and blindsided. I arrived at 3:05 for optional numbing before my 3:30 appointment, but when I asked about numbing I was told they don't numb for this procedure because 1) it doesn't hurt and 2) it's much quicker than normal microneedling. Both of those statements turned out to be false. I was seen at 3:15 and finished my session around 3:40. At first the pain was bearable, but as the procedure continued it became increasingly painful. After I repeatedly told NP Jessica how much it hurt, she asked if it was my first time microneedling--even though I had already told her it was my first time when she walked into the room and that I was excited to try something new. Her response of "ohhhh I'm so sorry" made it feel like what I had shared beforehand wasn't really taken into account. For context, I have a very high pain tolerance. I've done multiple sessions of PRF EZGel under my eyes with NP Jasmine (formerly at Belle Vie and now at Intemporel Clinic). I've even been told I'm an easy patient to work on because I really do not complain. After the appointment, I called immediately while sitting in my car to be reminded of the post-care instructions because I was honestly so discombobulated from the experience that I couldn't recall them. I also got a second opinion from another NP based in Newport, who told me they absolutely could have numbed me rather than telling me the procedure wouldn't hurt and was quicker. I called back again and ended up getting connected to the receptionist at the Cerritos location, which was bizzare because 22 minute prior the Newport receptionist picked up. She was very apologetic and helped answer all of my questions. I mentioned that for future reference, I believe NP Jessica could be more mindful and transparent about the pain level and the fact that everyone's tolerance varies. I even said I would have gladly paid extra for numbing if that was the issue. She informed me that numbing is actually complimentary and that if I arrived early and asked about it, they could have simply asked if that was something I wanted rather than dismissing it. I will say that Z is the absolute best, and every facial I've gotten from her has been so good!! Although I won't be returning to Belle Vie after 3 years of coming here, I do wish them the best!!

Everything was very normal until the office manager/co-owner text me the day before my first MN appointment and she told me that based on the educated questions I had been asking in the chat for my new NP prior to my appointment they would be canceling my appointment and telling me to receive treatment elsewhere. Please note, the questions I asked were no different than something that ChatGPT would recommend any potential patient asking any given provider. There are red flags that are very concerning when evaluating practitioners-- one of which is not being able to ask questions. So in that regards I'm actually very grateful that they canceled my appointment and I went elsewhere for treatment. I just wanted to share my experience so that others are aware. ... In response to Glo -- yes, this amazing country of ours allows businesses the right to exercise subjective opinions and decisions. That is a very important freedom and right. If Glo felt that this concern of patient doubt was the case, it would have been a kind and respectful courtesy to ask the patient directly at the time of the questions if that was indeed the case and to see if there was anything that they could do to address those concerns that Glo felt were present. Also, advanced notice of a cancellation, at the time the questions had been asked in the months / weeks preceding the appointment instead of the evening before would have been much appreciated.

I was lucky to connect with Ashley, who happened to be between clients at the front desk--and I'm so glad I did. She is an outstanding nurse practitioner and has truly transformed my skin. I came in with concerns about pigmentation from years of sun exposure, age spots, and possible melasma related to hormonal changes. Ashley took the time to listen, explain my options, and recommend a thoughtful, personalized approach. My goal was to achieve clearer, healthier skin so I could wear less makeup as I age--and she completely understood that "less is more," especially as makeup can settle into fine lines over time. I felt confident, informed, and genuinely cared for throughout the process. While I initially wanted fast results, she thoughtfully explained that great skin is an investment and a process--and that approach made all the difference. She wants you to be 100% satisfied with the results. My skin looks incredible, and I only regret not doing this sooner. Ashley genuinely cares about her clients and their results, and she is now my go‑to for all my aesthetic needs.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Shawna, PA-C, and her assistant Franky at SkinSpirit in…read moreNewport Beach. I was referred to Shawna by my oculoplastic surgeon after I shared how unhappy I had been for the past year with lip filler done elsewhere. I had specifically asked for natural and minimal, but the injector I went to, who marketed herself as a "Master Injector," completely overfilled my lips and destroyed my Cupid's bow. It left me feeling self-conscious and honestly very hesitant to ever trust anyone again. From the moment I walked into SkinSpirit, I had a sense I was on the right track. The clinic is beautiful, elegant, high-end, calming, and welcoming. The front desk staff are warm, professional, and clearly care about their patients. My consultation with Shawna and Franky was exceptional. Their bedside manner is truly special. Shawna took the time to really listen to my fears, concerns, and goals, even while I was crying because I was so nervous about trusting someone again. She reassured me that restoring my lips to a natural look was absolutely possible with the right approach and expertise. We began the process of dissolving my previous filler, and the preparation was incredibly thoughtful and careful. They prioritized my comfort and wellbeing throughout the entire appointment. Dissolving filler can be quite painful, but Shawna and Franky were so empathetic and supportive the entire time. They also offer NOX, a nitrous oxide and oxygen mix for pain and anxiety management, which was a huge help. Not many clinics offer this option, and it truly made a difficult procedure much more manageable. I am currently about halfway through my lip restoration journey, and I already feel so relieved knowing I am finally in the right hands. In a few weeks we will begin a very conservative, natural lip enhancement, and I am genuinely excited about the outcome. If you are looking for someone who combines technical skill, aesthetic judgment, honesty, and genuine compassion, Shawna is the injector you want. Franky is an incredible assistant and makes the entire experience feel safe and supportive. I will absolutely update this review once my final results are complete, but so far my experience has been nothing short of outstanding.
