After years of struggling with melasma and dark spots caused by sun exposure and pregnancy, I feel…read moreincredibly grateful to finally have found a dermatologist I truly trust -- Dr. McLain at Peninsula Dermatology. Before seeing Dr. McLain, my journey with melasma was frustrating and emotionally exhausting. Years ago, I learned how complex and difficult melasma can be to treat, especially for deeper skin tones. After moving to Washington, I visited a med spa where I was confidently told that Moxie laser treatments would improve my pigmentation. Unfortunately, after two sessions, the heat from the laser worsened my melasma, leaving my skin darker and more damaged than before. By the time I found Dr. McLain, I had become extremely cautious and fearful about pursuing further treatment. I waited six months for my appointment, and from the very first visit, I knew I was finally in the right hands. Dr. McLain combines exceptional knowledge with genuine compassion. Every appointment has been thoughtful, thorough, and never rushed. Despite his demanding schedule, he always takes the time to explain every detail, answer every question, and make sure I fully understand both the benefits and the risks of treatment options. That level of care is rare. What moved me most was his willingness to prioritize my safety and long-term results over convenience or production. Before considering Fraxel laser treatment, he offered to do a test spot on my skin first -- simply to ensure that my skin tone would respond safely and appropriately. As someone in healthcare myself, I understand that this is not something providers are obligated to do, especially when it adds extra time without benefit to them. Yet he still went above and beyond because he genuinely cared about doing what was best for me. The oral treatment plan he created has already helped my skin tremendously, but more than that, he restored my confidence and trust after a very discouraging experience. I truly appreciate not only Dr. McLain's expertise, but also the integrity, patience, and humanity he brings to patient care. I sincerely wish more healthcare providers approached patients with the same level of thoughtfulness and compassion. Patients remember that, and it makes all the difference.

Second time this has happened now. Won't be rescheduling but will be looking for a new clinic. Peninsula dermatology could care less if patients go elsewhere or not so this review likely doesn't even matter. Oh well.

I went to get my first Botox treatment with Jennica. I was very nervous and hesitant and did not…read moreknow what to expect plus I don't like to do things to my face. She thoroughly explained it to me before getting started. She never rushed me nor did I feel like she was annoyed with all of my questions. She was very patient and made me feel comfortable as a first timer. I explained how I don't like needles or people messing with my face and she was very considerate when touching my face and very sanitary. I would definitely recommend her to others and be seeing her again! Her office space is also very beautiful with a nice view! I was really amazed by that. You feel comfortable on the spot.

64 units of Botox. When Stephie uttered those words, I was…read moresurprised--not just by the amount, but by the sticker shock that would inevitably come with it. I've been seeing Stephie for my Botox for 13 years and have always gotten between 45-55 units. So when she recommended 64 units this visit, I was a bit taken aback. She took the time to explain in detail why the increased dose made sense and how "dose equals duration." Long story short, she has perfected her technique. The higher dose allows for more even dispersion and a noticeably better, more symmetrical result. After the injections... oh my goodness--she was right! I can both see and feel the difference. Yes, the treatment costs a bit more, but the results are absolutely worth it!

I cannot say enough good things about my experiences here. From the moment you walk in, you're met…read morewith kindness, professionalism, and a team that truly cares about their clients. Both Kate and Stephanie are incredibly knowledgeable. They are kind, attentive, and take the time to explain everything and make you feel completely at ease. The HydraFacial has been incredibly beneficial for my skin. I've seen noticeable, lasting results -- brighter, smoother, more hydrated and healthier-looking skin after every visit. I love that this treatment clears out pores, and leaves your skin refreshed and glowing. It's also ideal that Kate is skilled enough to "read" my skin and understand what exactly it needs and what might be too much for my skin. I have to add that I always have the best chats with both ladies! They have a fun sense of humor and are so relatable. They take the time to make everyone feel special and valued which makes me excited to recommend Catalyst to my dear friends. If you're on the fence about booking an appointment, don't hesitate. You'll be in caring, capable hands, and the experience is just as wonderful as the results. I'm so grateful I found this place and can't recommend them highly enough.

Very disappointing experience. I had an appointment scheduled for 10:00 a.m. today with Kathy, but…read moreshe never showed up and I never received a phone call, text, or any notification that the appointment had been canceled. I waited for over an hour, and no one ever arrived at the clinic. I had to take time off work and rearrange other appointments to accommodate this session, so having no communication whatsoever was incredibly frustrating and disrespectful of my time. I understand that emergencies and scheduling conflicts happen, but patients deserve timely communication if an appointment cannot be kept. I hope the office improves its reliability and communication moving forward.

She didn't want to do that and they were unable/unwilling to refund her money. It looks like they recently changed owners; the signage on the outside doesn't match the inside. I should have been tipped off by that fact but my mom had been saving for this procedure for a year. I also had to help her update some forms on an iPad and had to do the same information 3x, evidence of a redundant cheap system that doesn't keep track of patient information appropriately: should have been another tip off. Anyway. I don't advise this place. Not accredited in BBB. Do your research!

I now just email the rep who helped me the first time, when I need to buy more or make an appt. I usually send an email and ask for deals and she tells me what is coming up so I can get a decent deal. The Tacoma office is usually very busy so it can take a while to get an appointment. The technicians who do the procedure have all been very nice and efficient. I will say that I have more bruising on my face here than I have had in other places and the xeomin does not last as long as dysport or botox (but it is cheaper). Overall, I am happy and will continue to go to Ideal Image for my "Maturing Skin" issues.
