I had a great Oligio jaw treatment here bought on Groupon. The owner BJ is very knowledgeble and knows her machines and treatments. I will definitely come back for another service. Lisa also helped me to choose next option and honest about prices no sales pitch. I I like the friendliness and advice and will definitely come here over franchised places with sales pressure and high prices. Very satisfied read more

Do. Not. Go. Here. My appointment was on a Saturday at NOON. I drove 30 minutes to get there, pulled into the parking lot and received a call the girl was sick and had to cancel. What?!?! I requested a refund via Groupon. It's 8:50 pm and I just received a call from BJ, the person that was supposed to do my procedure. Thinking she might be calling to apologize! But She was EXTREMELY RUDE, disrespectful, told me she normally doesn't work Saturdays but was going in "just for me" , that she woke up sick at 10 am but no one called me until I made the drive at noon. She told me not to call there requesting a refund through Groupon, that she didn't get paid, so deal with Groupon. She wouldn't shut up and I had to yell and tell her I've received my Groupon refund already. I also told her I didn't appreciate her calling me at 8:50pm. I told her her business will not survived with all of the negative Yelp reviews and her awful, unprofessional behavior. She told me she has over 8,000 clients 8,000? No she does not. Stay away. You've been warned. I have NEVER been treated so badly by a business read more

Wow! Horrific. Please read original post and comment back from the business owner. The response from business owner 'Maddy A' has ageist comments and includes customer blaming. The owner, Maddy, even wrote that this ordeal happened because I 'didn't have an appointment' ...which is not true, I had an appointment. Regardless of an appointment or not, no paying customer deserves this type of treatment from a service provider. I've deemed this place as incredibly unprofessional, and urge them to please do better. If the business knew that overbooking would compromise their quality of service, wait times, and customer experience...why would they willingly choose to participate and then blame the customer when they are unimpressed? To reiterate: I had an appointment, they forgot about me in the back waiting area for over 55minutes, they only noticed/remembered my appointment because I got up to finally leave. They gave me $20 off of the $200 procedure, since they felt bad for forgetting about me, which was very kind! YET, the procedure itself left me with TERRIBLE bruises & VERY swollen. These negative side effects have NEVER happened to me before from other med spas administering the exact same procedure, same treatment areas, and same number of units. Fellow yelpers, do with this information as you will and choose carefully who you support with your dollars. I will NOT be supporting this establishment. read more

Momma's Medi Spa - Business owner's response to my less than stellar experience. Complete with ageist remarks and customer blaming. Sad, do better. - Medical Spas Near Me - Solana Beach, California

Not impressed with this place at all. The lady that gives the Botox is rude and condescending. I had over 40 units placed and it did not work at all. I went back in for a follow up and they charged me more to fix it. Awful experience. The lady rushes, acts like a know it all and belittles her clients. Not recommended. All I heard was... I've been doing this forever, listen to me. I know what I'm talking about. Ok, well... I know this is not what it's supposed to look like after spending over $400. Do not come here. I do recommend this Salon get a new nurse because the one you have is not a good representation for your brand. I will not be back. Photo is 3 weeks after 40 plus units. read more

First I want all to know Mamm's is amazing. Pricing, cleanliness and staff are all totally on point. I have read all of the negative reviews and thay honestly seem like a reach. All the complaints generally are not about Mammas Medi Spa but rather clients having unrealistic expectations. These negative Nancy's thinking there are special rules for them is Asinine. It was very upsetting to read all of the negative reviews. Women should support other women. I enjoyed my Botox appointment and also did Deka DOT. I will also be scheduling future services. Everything was explained to me and nothing was sugar coated. If I could I would give Mamma's 5 +++++ stars. Thank you so much for what you do! read more

Called in Friday to make an appointment they made my appt for the following week. Thinking I'm all set to go, then they call me the next day to tell me they have to get payment in full before I come into my appt? I'm a new customer, I have never been talked to like this. I'm so happy I have the voicemail to prove that this is how they handle new clients. They Cancelled my appt because I didn't pay for the SERVICE I haven't even got done wow what a joke! read more

Momma's Medi Spa - They Canceled my appt because they need full payment weeks before my appointment - Medical Spas Near Me - Solana Beach, California

It's unfortunate that the scheduling is so off and there is a lack of transparency. Came in for a 3Pm appointment and 40 minutes later I'm still being told I'm next. If the establishment is understaffed I would appreciate a phone call with the delay. Waiting in an empty chair next to a teddy bear being ignored isn't a good customer experience. read more

Momma's Medi Spa - Empty chair - Medical Spas Near Me - Solana Beach, California

I accompanied a friend and from what I overheard would not recommend. The owner berated a customer who asked a question about the Botox injections and then was punitive telling her for questioning her she would not get the service because clearly she was uncomfortable. Then she want on to point to all her certificates and degrees telling the customer that she knew better than a doctor (who had presumably done the customer's previous Botox). Then went on to say that patients like her were why she didn't like taking Groupons. The tone was...angry and petulant. The customer was calm and polite but looked distraught as she left. Patients (as this person was since the owner is a medical professional) should ask questions. True medical PROFESSIONALS should not throw tantrums when asked questions. If you don't like Groupons, then don't take them. read more

My #1 trusted Medi Spa in San Diego. BJ is so talented & I always leave loving my results! I recently had IPL treatment to remove a spider vein from the bridge of my nose.

She has done it again!!! I continue to get older and my face continues to not age. I actually am looking younger with each visit to Momma's Medi! I enjoy the ease of scheduling an appointment, the staff is always attentive and nice. The spa is really cute and located in the heart of Solana with parking always available out front. When I go in, I with an open mind. I express my concerns and let BJ work her magic. Be open and honest, let her know your budget and what it is you are looking for. I have scanned through some of the recent yelp reviews and was shocked on some of the comments as well as appalled at one. Keyboard warriors and google doctors aren't experts on elected cosmetic procedures. If we can offer each other more grace and patience, we would all make perfect patients. BJ is one of the nicest peoples I have met and almost the only person I would trust with my face. read more

Taking the time to actually write out my first official Yelp review. Not necessarily happy that it is a negative one, but I think when spending hundreds of dollars on a product, customers should know what they are getting themselves into. I've been getting Botox 3x a year since 2019. I purchased a Groupon for 40 units at Mommas as it seemed to be a great deal. Also, I'd like to mention that this was the most units of Botox I've ever purchased to date, so I was pretty excited. My first appointment, 1/30/21, was OK. BJ, the owner, administered my injections. During that appointment we had some small talk about how long she's been running the business, etc. She had mentioned that she was back on Groupon because some younger female customers left her bad reviews. She stated she's a "multi-tasker, and the younger generation doesn't like that" which I now fully understand as she was not 100% focused on what she was doing. My suggestion is that when you're working on someone's face with injections, such as Botox, you might want to stop whatever else you're doing to actually focus on it. I called two weeks later and explained that I still had a crease in between my eyebrows that I initially asked to have "frozen" as it is my trouble spot. In the past at other spas, I've never had to return for a touch up, which again wasn't a big deal. I ended up going back to the spa 17 days later, so three days after that 2-week mark, which the receptionist told me was fine. Not sure of the receptionist's name, but she was not very pleasant to speak with when I was explaining why I needed to come back. I don't need you to treat me like a queen but being the "face" of a business via the phone, I'd expect a more friendly and approachable person to speak with. When I arrived, I explained again that I wanted the area in between my eyebrows frozen. I must have said it 3 times, "I want it frozen." Assuming I am paying for the service, I'd like it done the way I want it. BJ then administered 12 additional units to my forehead. Not sure if this is best practices or not, as I am not an expert, but she only administered 2 injections, each with 6 units. After the first injection, a stream of blood dripped right down into my eyebrow. I've had a little blood from Botox in the past, the amount that made up to be the size of a freckle, but that's it. This was an actual gushing stream down to my eyebrow until she cleaned it up. Another two weeks had gone by and AGAIN, still have creasing in between my brows. This is the most Botox I've ever had there and the most creasing I've ever had post injection. I called to see what could be done and BJ ended up texting me asking for photos. Her read receipts were on and I saw that she had opened them and after a few hours I asked her to confirm receiving them. She then proceeded to tell me to wait 2 more weeks. She said also to use Cronin or Dysport and then said "You look good you don't need to be more frozen...Your supppse to move a little" Again, I asked multiple times to be frozen in that area, I don't need your personal opinion about it. I responded telling her I've never had an issue before, I am not immune to Botox as I've only been getting it since 2019 and its worked perfectly each time and that I specifically asked for that area to be frozen. She responded saying "Sorry I cant help how you respond to Botox and you need to let it work over 2 weeks time if you need filler its 375 and you can fill the dress if Botox isn't working s ynote" Last thing I will mention is that having consultations with previous places I've been to for Botox, they've told me getting filler in between the brows is a huge NO and has extreme risk within that area which is why I wanted it frozen in the first place. This suggestion from BJ made me regret purchasing this Groupon even more now that she's suggesting something that multiple people have strongly suggested me against getting. read more

Purchased a Groupon for this place- 20 units of Botox. When I called to make my appointment and mentioned my Groupon, whomever I was speaking to was very, very short & rude. I figured it was maybe just a receptionist who was having a bad day. The day of my appointment, I arrived not realizing I parked in front of the building because I didn't see any noticeable sign with the spa's name on it. So I walked around the premises and decided to call to get some help. I explained that I have an appointment and I'm a little lost. Again, the woman (who I found out was doing my injections) was rude and a little condescending. The spa itself was okay- looked a little cluttered with vials everywhere. But I shook it off. I was more than polite like always- and eventually once the procedure began the injector wasn't as rude- which was relieving. This isn't my first rodeo with Botox- and thought I got a Groupon paying for 20 units, it definitely didn't feel like 20 units. My appointment was yesterday, so I'll see what happens in 1-2 weeks once I start noticing the effects. I give this a 2, because I strongly feel that beauty spa's are supposed to be inviting, warm and kind to their paying customers. Even if they purchase off Groupon. I would be more than willing to pay full price for a treatment at a facility that makes me feel welcomed read more

I have had several different services performed by BJ. Hands down the best and most professional medical spa around. Bj is extremely knowledgeable and professional. Very matter-of-fact and to the point. No up selling. No over injections. She offers a wide variety of services. You won't be disappointed. She really cares about each and every one of her patients! read more

Best of the best. Thank you for the ease of scheduling to the expertise in treatments. read more

I am absolutely in love with the the results from the PDO Thread lift and Fibroblast Plasma Pen refresh around my eyes. BJ made the procedure painless and the results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend! Note: You get what you pay for. I see the Groupon negative reviews, and anyone looking for a "frozen face" can look at Allergen's website for botox recommendations and it's 20 units forehead, 20 between eyes (resting bitch face) and 12 crows feet (each side) 64 units total. It can also take up to two weeks to see results. read more

I am very much disappointed in this spa. One word. Vile. And let me make it very clear, this is not in regard to BJ or her services. I am only speaking to the dense and unkind staff she hired to help run her business. So let's talk about it... I booked an expensive spa service weeks in advance. Never ever was told or had it relayed that I had to make payment 48 hours in advance. I got a text message, very late,and unprofessional that my appointment was no longer. As a matter of fact, it was completely canceled and moved to a sooner date; unbeknownst to me. This derelict office staff secretary ran her mouth about how she was right and she felt "sorry I was offended." Never ever admitting fault; never trying to own or take accountability for her wrongs. She canceled my appointment and proceeded to talk back against me. That's why I WILL NEVER GO BACK. Big mistake. I have 3 sisters and a mother I would have easily recommended because BJ is good and kind. But forget it when her staff is completely incompetent. No thank you. read more

I purchased a Groupon this morning and I called to make an appointment. The owner picked up and asked me "how I heard about them" I told her that I had purchased a Groupon. Then she tells me to "wait" she then puts me on hold. When she gets back on the phone she asked me when I purchased my Groupon. I told her I had purchased it today. She then says that I won't be able to book an appointment because they are not doing Groupons anymore. She said I would have to call Groupon and get a refund. I'm in shock and then I ask her for her name and she HANGS UP ON ME, yes the owner hung up on me! I read all the reviews before I purchased the Groupon and I did see that many people had problems with the customer service. BELIEVE THE REVIEWS this business has the WORST customer service! After the owner hung up on me I called back and she kept on forwarding me to voicemail. This place is a joke and they don't even deserve 1 star. I will post a picture of my call log that shows I called multiple times. read more

Momma's Medi Spa - Medical Spas Near Me - Solana Beach, California

I've been meaning to write my review for a while now... Let me just start that this place is far from professional!!! Beware because if you purchase a groupon you are in for a big surprise. The lady I spoke to who I assume was the owner is extremely rude DOES NOT like it when you present a Groupon to her. Additionally, make sure you know what she is injecting you with because she will get offended and get defensive if you start asking her questions. With all said... I HIGHLY DO NOT recommend this spa... its very cluttered and does not seem sanitized to be a salon spa type of place. If you do decide to come here please be warned!! read more

The first time I went was a great experience. BJ took her time, and it was some of the longest lasting Botox I've ever had. The second time however, was horrible. She didn't have me on the schedule (even though I had received a confirmation text) and was in a rush. Made me bleed and very painful. Botox started wearing off after a month. I reached out to let her know and possibly get touch up done. Made an appointment, received another confirmation text and yet, when I went in for the appointment, she didn't know I was coming. I explained I was texting someone the day before and had the confirmation. She was rude and told me to just sit and wait. I left and will not be back. read more

What a delightful and personal experience with BJ and all her staff. BJ has so much experience and treats you with such respect and care. I highly recommend. read more

Wow! This was the best experience ever!!! The person who booked my appt was so nice and helpful and very reassuring about the procedure, which put me at ease... and I like when people are direct and to the point. I also arrived early, they took me back early and were very accommodating, I didn't have to wait at all. I was incredibly nervous about getting my lips done... why did I watch any YouTube videos on it?!??! BIG MISTAKE NUMBER ONE. I kept seeing people cry through the procedure. So I was freaked out to say the least. But I cannot even believe it when I say it myself, but it was painless! Some people have a super gentle hand with injections and she is one of them. Botox absolutely hurts more than getting your lips done. On a pain scale of 0-10, I dont even know if I could call it a 1. My gf is an RN at a med spa, she has yet to start doing injections. But she was interested in watching the procedure. BJ was kind enough to let her watch. If my friend was impressed with her technique, how it caused no pain, and her bedside manner. Overall I am super happy with the staff and the work. Thank you!!! read more

I had my PDO Threading last week, lower face. BJ is very professional, she explained me everything about this procedure. My skin is usually very sensitive and prone to bruises but immediately after this treatment my skin was almost the same...just a bit swollen with very small bruises that disappeared in a couple of days: this means that she did GREAT! I need to wait at least 4 weeks for the result but after 5 days I can already see the difference. All the staff is kind and nice, I recommend this place. read more

I have been going to Momma's Medi Spa and have found the receptionists friendly and helpful. BJ has always been professional and very good in providing her services. I would highly recommend Momma's! read more

Momma does it again! She is amazing!!!! I can't say enough about BJ! Time after time she provides amazing care, professionalism and results! I come all the way from Scottsdale to see Bj because I can't find anyone even close to her level in AZ. If you live in the San Diego area or even if you are just visiting- you will not regret making an appt!!! IVs, Botox, filler, threads, and noninvasive treatments- your one stop shop!!! Can't wait for my next visit!! read more

BJ is an artist. She listens to your concerns and then with her artistic eye she makes suggestions. I have had many treatments with her, from different lasers to threads. Recently I had threads in my lip area. She did a great job. You can definitely see the improvement. She is also fair with prices and has specials. Thanks BJ read more

Do not buy Groupon for this place- you will immediately regret it. Actually save yourself a headache and do not go period. Have never been treated so poorly before. Not sure how this place has good reviews but just walk thru the doors and you will see what I mean. I'm still shuttering at the treatment from the owner BJ months later. Filter to the negative reviews and also search Groupon reviews and please do the research before you go here. read more

They've provided me with great Botox and fibroblast services at a reasonable price. Will be going back.

Excellent service in regard to IV hydration and wellness therapy. I will be back for sure.

I first came to this spa with a networking type of group, not planning to use the services. While I was there I decided to go ahead and get some botox at the event, because the pricing was great. I have never been more pleased with the results than I was from this experience! BJ told me about another procedure that I was previously unaware of, and it is far less invasive than others I was considering. I will be getting it done at the end of the month. I'll keep you informed! The spa is beautifully appointed, the women were gracious- I loved all of it. In fact, I am going to do an event of my own there next month because I was so impressed with the ladies and BJ the owner. read more

Went in today for a consultation. The entire time I felt rushed by the nurse. Halfway through us talking about the procedure she abruptly leaves the room. I wait for her to come back and she never does. Customer service was very bad throughout. I'm a business owner and this business could learn that first impression is everything with customers because most likely you won't get a second one. I would recommend to look elsewhere for your med spa treatments. read more

Made an appointment 3 weeks ago as a new client. Day of my appointment, came 10 min early figuring I needed to fill out paperwork. Was ignored and then rushed into a room and injected w Botox 2 min later. My appt was at 4:00 I was out of there by 4:05 I appreciate that she was quick...but I wasn't even checked in, no paperwork, didn't ask my name and I didn't get her name at all. Weird Was given the paperwork to fill out after and then had to walk myself out. Very odd experience, sadly nothing about this made me want to go back. read more

I don't like leaving negative reviews -- and it takes a lot for me to do so -- but since I rely on reviews so heavily when making my own decisions, it's only fair. I just had the strangest 15 minute consultation with salon owner B.J. Brockman ("Momma"). She was distracted, disorganized and dismissive. She'd go from looking for before/after photos to show me to insisting I read a five page document, to checking on a patient, to going in her backroom to ending our consult by simply walking away, leaving me and the receptionist looking at each other like 'whaaaa?' She did not give me the opportunity to ask any questions or even express what I was looking for in a cosmetic procedure. read more
