But you rally (you drove 45 minutes to get there - you were pumped to pamper yourself) ~ you wait the 1/2 hour while 3 humans figure out what happened with their "system", you pass the interrogation process, you share the emails, text messages, provide a timeline confirming your 12:20 pm. You wait another 30 minutes ~ you're an hour in wait time now ~ someone's "cleaning" up the room. You take a deep breathe for the long awaited DiamondGlow facial. I left with a 30-minute speed "Cubic Zirconia Glow" facial for $175.00. Oh, did I mention there was no "we apologize for the confusion" or "sorry about the wait" or "can we get you a water while you wait?"

WARNING: Nouveau Derm Medispa ruined my life!!! For over a year, my life has been a revolving door…read moreof doctors, specialists, and emergency rooms. I am now disfigured and scarred. This is all because I received filler injections at the Nouveau Derm Spa in January 2020. A well-known and respected plastic surgeon, an MD dermatologist, and an MD infectious disease specialist all agree that the injection was not done correctly on right side of my face. Sadly, it was only after the damage was done that, I learned about Dr. Windt's reputation. Several doctors expressed exasperation when I told them what happened. Those physicians said that Dr. Windt was kicked out of Exeter Hospital, so he then reinvented himself as an allergy specialist and opened a Spa office for his daughter in the same building as his allergy office, NouveauDerm Medspa in North Hampton. In January 2020, it started with filler injections I received at Nouveau Derm Spa. I had bruising from the injections which continued for a week, then after 8-9 days my face started to swell so I went to Urgent Care because it was a Sunday, where they put me on antibiotics and said I need to go see Dr. Windt. Owner & Physician at the Spa, in the morning. Dr. Windt said he didn't really see any problem and that it was just allergies. He refused to take any blame and told me to take probiotics. In February/March I struggled with the side of my face drooping, my PCP called it Bell's Palsy and I was put on prednisone. Without the prednisone my face would swell right up making me look like a monster. In April, I still had Bell's Palsy and swelling, but now a very large lump had formed to the side and just below my eye. The nurse said that the normal pathways of drainage in that side of my face had been disrupted, resulting in the selling and drooping. In July it the same thing but now a large red blotch is appearing on my face. The swelling and drooping still comes and goes about 2-3 x's a month and are swollen for about a week. To this day, there is still swelling and drooping but now there is a large red scar. Friends recoil in horror when they see me and ask "what happened to you"! Nobody at NoveauDerm every contacted me to see how I was doing or showed any compassion for what they did to me.

This review is for the guys and those who know a guy who may think that seeing an esthetician is…read moreonly for women. Frankly, I didn't really know that an esthetician is a skin care and improvement professional! So I was in that camp until seeing a promotion which got me thinking. Upon entering Lauren's spa, she immediately made me feel welcome and relaxed. I walked in not really knowing what to ask for or what she could improve upon. But being outdoors oriented, I've seen plenty of sun. While Lauren's spa is new to Portsmouth, she has years of experience in other parts of the country. All of her equipment is new and state-of-the-art. For me (I'm in my 60's), she suggested an initial focus on sun damaged areas and surface capillaries over two IPL sessions. My skin is now smoother, more vibrant and uniform in color! Thus more youthful. The next phase will be some skin tightening completed over a few sessions.

Lauren made me feel right at home. She has created a comfortable, inviting, and rejuvenating atmosphere in which I felt comfortable, even as an adult male, to open up and talk about skin issues that have been plaguing me since I was in high school. On top of that, she was able to almost completely remove the melasma on my cheeks with IPL! I cannot thank her enough for helping give me my confidence back when I walk into a room. I no longer feel like everyone is judging me due to the melasma on my face and more like they are admiring me. Oh yeah, Lauren is also one of the nicest and most beautiful people you'll ever meet. If you're a guy and you're thinking about it... just make the call and book the appointment! Thanks Lauren!
