    I cannot recommend Dr. Gidwani enough! She is extremely knowledgeable, caring, companionate, thorough, and an overall fantastic physician.

    Yasmin, Mariah, Brynlee, and Montana were all so lovely and professional. They got me set up with…read moreeverything seamlessly and made the entire experience feel easy and welcoming. Yasmin especially deserves a shoutout. She is an incredible PA. Knowledgeable, attentive, and truly caring. She took the time to explain everything thoroughly and made me feel completely comfortable and confident every step of the way. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does, and it shows in the level of care she provides.

    I had a very concerning experience with this spa. Based on the medical opinion of three other…read morephysicians, I was provided medical treatment that was unnecessary, and I experienced serious side effects afterward. When I reached out for help and tried to explain what was happening, the spa refused to provide any meaningful assistance. What made the situation worse was the way I was treated when I called. The receptionist was dismissive, refused to listen or understand the seriousness of my concerns, and ultimately hung up on me. And stated that the advice of my General Doctors is just his basic opinion. For a business providing medical or wellness-related treatments, that kind of response is unacceptable.I would not recommend this spa to anyone seeking responsible care, proper follow up, or basic professionalism when something goes wrong.

    I had my first facial with Carla and I was so impressed. I've had a lot of facials before so I'm…read morequite picky but I've been out of the spas for a few years while I went through cancer treatments. Carla was the perfect reintroduction to luxurious self care and my skin really needed a boost! I've felt like facial massage has become a lost art lately, and often times estheticians are so focused on gadgets/tools/lights/etc that the soothing benefits of manual facial massage have fallen by the wayside. I was so so pleased when Carla give me a wonderful face/neck/shoulder massage while under the LightStim. It felt wonderful and it gave the impression that she cared about her clients relaxation in addition to results. So when it was time for the mask, I hoped she would continue that level of warmth and she did. She did a hand/arm massage while I masked, and that was so nice too. I've had so many technicians either do their dishes during that time or leave the room completely and I appreciated her care for the full treatment. Her products were all great quality, facility was clean, I was offered water and never felt rushed. It genuinely feels like Carla cares for her clients, and sadly I think that's not always the case (especially in LA). I left feeling relaxed and refreshed and had a healthy glow. Thanks Carla! It's tucked away off the street a little so it was very nice and quiet inside Lulur Spa! Only negative is parking can be a little tricky in the area, it's right on the busy part of Robertson (but near a bunch of the Vanderpump Rules landmarks if you're a fan!) so give yourself extra time for parking.

    I have been seeing Carla regularly (1x/month) for over 5 years now...which should attest to how…read moreamazing she really is! Went in originally because I was suffering from hormonal/cystic breakouts due to PCOS. Never had acne my entire life, then this hit me in my late 20's. Part of my plan to fix the problem included regular deep cleaning facials (along with better diet/exercise/supplements/etc) During the first year, Carla noticeably decreased cystic breakouts overall, along with the scarring marks I had along my jawline/cheeks (caused by those breakouts). She put me on a new facial regime using iS Clinical products - which I continue to adhere to religiously to this day. Basically, she helped my skin recover from a traumatic 2 years of hormonal acne. Today, I RARELY breakout. I can't even remember the last cystic blemish I've had - it's that seldom. That said, I still see Carla monthly to maintain my glow and give my face a nice deep clean :) Carla is amazing at what she does. And I'm positive that since I'm a regular, she gives me a bunch of little extra freebies every time I see her for my monthly facial service. I've come to know her well as a friend too, and genuinely love this woman! BEST OF ALL - she is SUPER DOG FRIENDLY (has 2 of her own)...my dog comes in with me for all my services, right up on the spa bed :)

    Michelle is incredible!! I highly recommend booking with Michelle! She provided exceptional…read moreservice. Her touch is so gentle and skilled, I have never felt this relaxed before. It was the best facial I've ever had in Koreatown. Michelle's professionalism and attention to detail made the entire experience so relaxing and enjoyable. When I looked in the mirror afterward, my skin was literally glowing! I met up with my friends after my facial, and they gave me so many compliments on how smooth and radiant my skin looked. I also want to mention how friendly and professional the staff was, especially Jennifer. She was so knowledgeable and had such a bright, welcoming personality. I loved how clean and beautifully decorated the spa was. I've already booked my next facial because I can't wait to come back. I highly recommend visiting Gloria Skincare!

    I wanted to give another koreatown spa a try, but this wasn't great. The front desk staff were very…read morefriendly, welcoming, asked me how I found the place. But then when I got into the actual facial procedure, it didn't go so well. I was assigned someone named Kyung. She used the needle/lancet A LOT. I had maybe one stubborn, deeper pimple, but the fact that she used a needle to puncture and squeeze a bunch of spots caused a lot of scarring/hyperpigmentation that's taken me over two weeks now to exfoliate and get rid of, and its not yet near to being clear. If their smaller ones that can be squeezed then a lot is normal- but the needle was used probably over 20 times. Not only that, but every time she spoke, it was always an attempt to get more money. First, it was asking if I wanted to buy a package or some sort of membership. She asked twice and kept on being pushy as she was doing the procedure. Next, she asked me to tip at least twice as well, and reminded me several times, even got the physical sign with her venmo/PayPal and showed it to me, to make sure I understood. Note that maybe had we made other small talk, then maybe, just maybe the way she was so pushy and trying to get more money out of me would be fine, but it was really every moment she spoke was an opportunity to get more money. It's a horrible feeling. That said, I wouldn't recommend trying, unless perhaps you're fluent in Korean and could veer the conversation to other things or speak more firmly when sold to.
