I am extremely disappointed with my experience. Before committing to laser hair removal, I…read morespecifically discussed my concerns as an African-American woman with coarse, dark hair. I was assured that my skin tone, hair texture, and ethnicity would not be an issue and was even told that my dark hair should respond well to the treatment. After completing six sessions, I saw little to no noticeable reduction in hair growth. Throughout the process, it became increasingly apparent that treating women with my skin tone and hair type was not something this business had significant experience with. Despite following the recommended treatment plan and attending multiple appointments, I did not receive the results I was promised. Because I was not seeing any improvement, I canceled my final two appointments. When I called, the receptionist apologized and stated that a manager would contact me. The manager did reach out, apologized for my experience, and told me she would speak with the laser technician to review my progress and treatment history. Unfortunately, after that conversation, I never heard back. There was no follow-up, no explanation, no concern for the lack of results, and no effort to address my experience. What disappointed me most was not only the lack of results, but the lack of customer care. Once my concerns were raised, communication completely stopped. It left me feeling as though the focus was on collecting payments rather than ensuring clients achieve successful outcomes. Based on my personal experience, I would encourage women of color, particularly African-American women with coarse hair, to thoroughly research a provider's experience treating diverse skin tones and hair types before committing to a treatment package. My concerns were not taken seriously, my results were nonexistent, and my attempts to seek answers were ultimately ignored.

After explaining my issue she said well I'm not sure what procedure you are explaining but does your in order to move forward I need to see if your insurance covers you. 1. I already explained I went through my insurance site and found this location (active listening is not her forte- she should've asked me about the member number) 2. I needed a same day appointment because of the pain associated with my issue. (After all that she FINALLY said we can't do a same day "you can go to urgent care") I said thank you and hung up-She clearly cannot represent the brand... NOW AS FAR AS THE TOP TIER SERVICE AT PEARL DENTISTRY... CHEF'S KISS! I called in and was greeted with the most welcoming and empathetic voice and professionalism from the front desk staff (I could almost kick myself for letting my pain make me drop the ball and forgot to get her name- she needs a shout out) She asked me how quickly can you get here? Do you think you can get here within 30 minutes? I was floored! Yessss I can! At that point she asked "so how did you find us?" - not will you be covered by your insurance. I told her my insurance and she said great! I can look you up to help you get in quicker and get taken care of! I was ill prepared but she took other means to find me and followed up with a 2nd phone call before arriving. The way she carried herself it was like I was the only patient they had and I was Queen Charlotte herself - just VIP Service and care, tailored to me, and about me. Good energy from the jump start! When I arrived... I was literally at the corner and she was looking out the window at a lost lady with 2 toddlers in a stroller and she waved me down like she knew me-Thank God because I was already hot and in pain but her infectious smile from probably 400+ft away made me feel like I was seeing a long time friend and I waved and painfully smiled bigger than I should have! she opened the door for me and said hey there welcome to Pearl Dentistry! I said did I look that lost? And we laughed and she said it's ok I'm just glad you made it! The other staff members were smiling and greeting me too (like we met before as well) 1. Location- Beautiful, bright, wonderful aesthetics, beautiful chipper people, and very professional. Great music too! 2. Technology and Intake- sent me a message for check in to my phone, easy and effortlessly created without feeling like I'm putting everything and my blood type on there (I've had some forms I wanted to just exit and this was very direct, straight to the point and not a dragged out process.) 3. Wait time- by the time I blinked they were calling me to the back and that was perfect because with the toddlers they can get a little too busy us moving to the back as quick as we did helped a lot. (Not to mention they had snacks for them and YouTube that kept them cool, calm and collected during my visit) 4. My Tooth Fairy Dr. Amanda Curtlin, DDS What a refreshing experience to know that the standard of service does not stop at the Front staff but in the individual rooms with back staff (Dental assistant/X-ray tech/ pre-op- very personable young lady!) Dr Curtlin made my nerve wrecking experience easy and effortlessly created a great environment for me to relax and provided a clear understanding of what was happening, why it was happening, and what we need to do to stay safe during & after care. Never in my life has a dentist made me feel comfortable enough to hum through a tooth extraction. I mean she carried the tunes with me, checked in on me after every line of the song, and still carried out a full tooth extraction without missing a beat! I think I even heard her sing to the dental assistant to drain the site AND I LOVED IT! She communicated with me the entire time, telling me to make sure I tell her if I feel any pain vs pressure, paused if she didn't understand what I was saying even if it was something as simple as you both are doing great because at that point they weren't just my cheer squad, I was theirs! I am an unofficial Pearl Dentistry ambassador little does she know and that is because of Dr. Curtlin and the entire staff! This isn't your normal Dental office that we grew up with... this is the Young, fresh faces, committed to excellence and care, empathy and compassion, personality and professionalism and their name fits because they are the Pearl in the sea of dentistry and definitely reimagined the view of dental care, HANDS DOWN THE BEST EXPERIENCE!

Dr. Capizzi review I just had my surgery done by Dr. Capizzi…read moreon Tuesday, January 24th. I interviewed another top plastic surgeon in the area who didn't give me any of the innovative ideas that Dr. Capizzi recommended for the best outcome possible. These products include the Sientra / 'gummy bear' implants to replace my old silicone ones. These Sientra implants are the safest implants available on the market, and they have a 20-year and up to a lifetime guarantee. They have the least complications of any implant on the market, including for ruptures or capasculsr contraction and other complications. These Sientra implants have a more cohesive gel that does not leak like other typical implants (imagine cutting a gummy bear in half and you have two solid pieces that are still intact- this is what happens with this particular type of gel implant). Dr. Capizzi also inserted a dissolvable mesh support at the bottom of my breast to make sure that the stays in place and also to stops drooping due to gravity / aging, which hopefully, means that this will be my last surgery. I am a 54 years old and this will be my third implant revision and, hopefully, the last one! Although my breasts are still sore and tender and the scars are healing, I already feel much better at day 6 then I felt with the other two surgeries at 2 weeks! I told Dr. Capizzi that he had 'carte blanche' to do whatever was necessary on the operating table to achieve the best possible outcome, and I actually went down a size because the larger implants that were similar in size to what I had previously did not give him the desired results that he wanted- and that he knew that I wanted. I am 100 percent confident that my breasts are going to be absolutely gorgeous once the swelling goes down and the scars heal, I can already tell they're going to be beautiful, fully supported, and nice and perky. The other thing that I asked him to do when doing the implant switch out and breast lift, was I wanted my nipples to be smaller and even, which has bugged me my entire life and has also now been corrected and I am absolutely thrilled about! I wanted a more full implant at the top with a little bit better cleavage so I chose the 'Bombshell' implant, which is the latest and greatest gummy bear implant available. It's a little fuller than the other available gummy bear implants, but they still feel nice and soft. Dr. Capizzi and his team will go over all of your options with you at your initial visit, with no pressure to go one way or the other, He'll show you pictures on a large screen of different women with various different types of implants, so you'll be able to see not only his past work but make notes of which ones you like and the look that you want to achieve along with him also taking copious notes on what your personal objectives are. His entire team is truly amazing- very professional and very caring- from Amy who will help you with pricing and scheduling, to Megan, who was my nurse, Plus the wonderful young woman that did my first post operative lymphatic drainage ultrasound, which was at day three (at my first post operative appointment, where they check to make sure everything is looking good and is healing properly). At that appointment, they also take off the Steri strips and fit you with a post-surgical bra, which, I believe, was designed by Dr. Capizzi himself+ it's so much more supportive than the old, traditional white cotton bras I was sent home before. Dr. Capizzi specializes in breast surgery, even very difficult cases like mine, I have very dense, fibro cystic breasts and I have very thin skin, on top of that- but he took it all in stride and wasn't phased by any of that in the least, I am 100% positive that he was the absolute best option as compared to any other surgeon. In fact, I have three friends that are currently exploring breast surgery, and I will be definitely referring them to Dr. Capizzi! Last but not least, Dr. Capizzi was recommended to me not only by multiple friends of mine as their Doctor, but he was also recommended to him by another plastic surgeon when asking for his recommendation for the best Surgeon for breasts. This retired plastic Surgeon from Charlotte said 'if you need your breast done, you need to talk to Dr. Capizzi, he is the absolute best at what he does and if this was for my wife or daughter, that's definitely where Iwould take them'. Another note is that the other plastic surgeon that I talked to, who was also very highly venerated and with over 40 years of experience, did not offer up any of the innovative ideas or products like the gummy bear implants or the dissolvable mesh to support the implant, He also did not offer lymphatic drainage ultrasounds or any other things that Dr. Capizzi automatically includes with his surgeries to flatten out the scars and to give his patients the best results. If you are considering any procedure that can be performed by a plastic surgeon, go here first!

I have never felt compelled to write a review like this, but after what I have experienced with Dr…read more Capizzi, I feel that other women deserve to know exactly what happened to me. I went into this surgery trusting Dr. Capizzi with something extremely personal and important to me. After having breast implants for approximately 24 years, my breasts were symmetrical and, in my opinion, looked beautiful. I have plenty of photographs showing exactly how even they were before this surgery. The ONLY reason I needed a revision was because one of my implants developed a leak after 24 years. I was very clear with Dr. Capizzi about what I wanted. I wanted my previous result replicated as closely as possible. I specifically discussed the implant size I had and expected the replacement to be the same size. I understood from what was discussed with him that this would essentially be a carbon copy of what I had before. Instead, I woke up to a result that was completely different from what I expected. I was given implants that were MORE THAN 120 CC SMALLER than what I had previously. And somehow, on top of that, I ended up with one breast sitting HIGH and the other sitting LOW. Let that sink in. I went into surgery with breasts that had been even for 24 YEARS, and I came out of a revision with obvious asymmetry. I cannot adequately describe how upsetting, frustrating, and heartbreaking this has been. This isn't simply a haircut that grows back or a cosmetic change that you can easily ignore. This is my body. I trusted a surgeon to take something that was working well for me and carefully restore it after one implant ruptured. Instead, I am now dealing with a result that I never wanted and now require another surgery to correct. I immediately sought another medical opinion because I knew something was wrong. I was told that there were already issues with the positioning and that my breasts were not simply going to "even themselves out." Now I am left trying to figure out how to correct something that I never should have had to correct in the first place. What has been almost as upsetting as the surgical result is how my concerns were handled afterward. When I questioned the outcome and pointed out the obvious asymmetry, I did not feel heard, respected, or taken seriously. My experience with Dr. Capizzi's bedside manner was extremely disappointing. I felt as though questioning his work was somehow an inconvenience rather than a legitimate concern from a patient who had trusted him with her body. His office was no better. When we reached out for help, we essentially received the message that there was nothing they could do for us. No meaningful solution. No sense that anyone was taking responsibility for helping me figure out what happened or what could be done next. I am incredibly disappointed because I trusted this doctor. I trusted his promises. I trusted his judgment. I trusted his skill. And I trusted that he would care about the result as much as I did. I now regret that decision. I am fortunate enough that I will have the ability to seek another surgeon and pay for another procedure to try to correct this. But I realize that many women do not have that option. That is one of the biggest reasons I am writing this review. I want women considering Dr. Capizzi to understand that they should do their homework, get second and even third opinions, document exactly what they currently have, and be extremely specific about what they expect before agreeing to revision surgery in writing. For me, this was supposed to be a straightforward revision of an implant that had lasted 24 years. Instead, I am now dealing with breasts that are visibly uneven and another surgery to try to fix the result. I would NEVER recommend Dr. Capizzi based on my personal experience. The hardest part is knowing that I went into this surgery with a result I was happy with, and I trusted someone to simply restore what I already had. Instead, I walked away feeling disappointed, dismissed, and completely let down. If you are considering Dr. Capizzi, please do your research and get another opinion before putting your body in his hands. I wish I had.

For about $25 + tip we would receive a facial or eyelash extension, makeover, snacks, drinks and a goody bag. When we walked into this place we were slightly confused about how they would fit us all into this tiny space of sinks and counter space. We waited outside (literally because it was too small) for about 25 minutes when my friend knocked on the glass to ask about us coming in.As they were looking at a beauty magazine they said it would be just one moment. FInally we were able to come in to start the makeovers! Soon after our first friend received a facial we were greeted by the "assistant" who came in with bottles of white wine (wahoo!) and Harris Teeter cupcakes. Then it went all downhill from here. I have to say that the ladies running the show were extremely sweet, friendly and entertaining. Unfortunately though after our first friend received her new makeover we were all a little hesitant to be the next in the chair. Every girl's makeup was overly caked on with little thought into our different skintone colors. The night turned from excitement to a four hour joke (that is how long it took us to get through this mistaken night). I started to feel bad after the third girl when directly from the makeup chair to the bathroom to wash off the makeup that was just applied. I am not quite sure if these ladies really thought we looked good or were just trying to make it through the long night. I'm going to wrap-it-up by saying that after my makeover I couldn't even pretend to smile and look satisfied I had to let the lady know that it was just way too much and of course she was very nice to take some of it off. Oh I forgot...we did not receive a goody bag at the end of the night...it was probably for the best. WIthout reservation I would highly recommend not putting forth any money to this place for a makeup or facial unless it is a donation for pure comedic entertainment. ~Written by Kieran's GF
