I had my not regular enough facial with her last Friday and when I was actually conscious it dawned on my why I love her so. Her facials are more than just a facial, they're a facassage or facialssage. I fall asleep every time and walk out there relaxed and looking amazing. Promila also has services that you won't find at your typical skincare day spa - shiro dara, candling, and many other Ayurvedic treatments. The Shiro dara experience is one I will never forget. She drizzles warm oil over your forehead (your third eye) and it's so relaxing I ended up falling asleep and dreaming about being on some cliff overlooking the beach. Get thee to Hercules (I know, I know...it's a hike, but well worth the drive).

Costed me $175. The yelp discount wasn't 20% off. It was for 10%. Regretful and really irritated I came here after doing some research. I should have stuck with the ones I used to go to. Terrible all around treatment. Anyways here are competitive places you can definitely go to!! Clevenate (does great back and face facial, and scalp facial - so fun!!), and Facial by Kim (she's very OG in offering skin care service that is hydration and acne treatments - love her even if she's a bit critical abt ur skin), and Cure to Dence Skin - they have newcomer promotion, so take advantage of it!! take your money that costs about $100 and are excellent in service and quality. Clevenate and Facial by Kim and CuretoDenceSkin At this place Aura Skin N Beauty I find the facial service on the back was not even the bare minimum. Not really treatment for my back. We talked a lot and I preferred it to be quiet. She gossiped later that all I did was talk about myself. But girl, you kept asking. It left a bad taste in my mouth. Also at the end before it was over she just opened up the towel and exposed my back and she left afterwards for a few minutes. What is the reason to leave product on my skin and the cold air? It was cold and I didn't expect her to leave me. At least let me know to expect that ya know??

The place is no frills but simple, clean, intimate and professional, which is exactly what I was looking for instead of a big chain medical group. I'm a first time botox customer so carefully did my research before going in. Met with Dr. Yan Li for my consultation and treatment from her as well. Not pushy, just informative. Her recommendations made sense to me personally so I proceeded with my first botox with a conservative dose. A great way to ease me in. Definitely returning for my refill treatment and considering some pigmentation treatment as well.

I tried facials at a few different places in Fremont and wasn't happy with the results from any of them until I found Kim. I wish I had taken before pictures to share because her facials have made a huge improvement! When I first saw her my skin was so broken out that I found myself avoiding social events because I was embarrassed by my appearance. I could tell that things were moving in the right direction after only two or three sessions with her and now that I've been going to her for about 6 months my skin is almost completely clear. She advised that I start using a retinoid product (I chose OTC Differin) and come in every 4 weeks for facials and that combination has been a winning strategy. I'm so grateful to her!

The facial itself was incredibly relaxing yet effective. My skin felt deeply cleansed, smooth, and noticeably brighter right after the session. The diamond exfoliation was gentle but thorough--no irritation at all, just that fresh, glowing skin feeling. What I really appreciated was how knowledgeable and attentive the provider was. They explained each step, customized the treatment based on my skin, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. If you're looking for a facial that gives instant glow, improves texture, and still feels luxurious and calming, I highly recommend the Diamond Facial at Renew MD. I'll definitely be back!

UPDATE: Ronald Aleteanu, one of the owners, reached out to me via comment on here. He said "reach…read moreout directly so it can be resolved at the level it should have been", which is odd, because he was the one that initially sent me the business' refund policy when I asked for a refund and rejected my refund in the first place. It just feels like he is wanting to publicly look like he is addressing the situation properly. I did end up reaching out again today, per his request, and Elena Aleteanu, the other owner, has not changed her stance. She is telling me that they can't do anything on their end and that I need to reach out to Square. Square is telling me that they can't do anything on their end and that the business needs to initiate the refund. So, I reached out to Ronald again directly, and he did not respond. In addition, he got my Google review deleted and is trying to get this one deleted as well, but thankfully Yelp is a lot better about keeping honest reviews. I also forgot to note that the service was booked for two hours total, as a side by side massage. Elena tried to SCAM my sister and her partner by offering each a 1 hour service, one at a time (because of being understaffed), even though it is a two hour service. I paid $400 for the massages, so she's was trying to tell my sister that each service (which included a full massage and facial) of $200 was for one hour only, which is a lie. ORIGINAL POST: AVOID California Skin Care & Day Spa in Newark I prepaid for a service (it was a gift), received a confirmation reminder the day before, and made arrangements for my sister and her partner who are visiting from out of town. I even paid for an Uber to get them there. They arrived on time and the place was closed. No staff, no setup, nothing. They waited about 40 minutes, while I tried calling and messaging every available number. Eventually Ronald Aleteanu, one of the owners, responded on WhatsApp , but that did not change the situation and the service still was not provided. Between the Uber and waiting, this ended up wasting about 2 hours of their time (& money for the Uber), and they left with nothing. After all of that, Elena Aleteanu (who eventually came) claimed she had called and left a message (and at one point claimed that she talked to someone - a complete lie). I never received any call or voicemail, and I confirmed that the number I entered was correct. Their explanation just does not add up, especially since they had no problem sending a reminder the day before. What is most frustrating is that they still refused to issue a refund for a service they never provided. Instead, they only offered store credit, which is completely unreasonable. I would strongly recommend avoiding this place. I also posted this on NextDoor and numerous people replied noting that the same thing happened to them. So this is not an isolated incident. I've posted those screenshots here.

From the moment I stepped into the cozy and inviting space, I was greeted by Jasmine and I felt welcomed and at ease. Jasmine was extremely professional, and her passion for skincare truly shines through in every aspect of her work. She took the time to attentively listen to my specific skin concerns and preferences, ensuring that she could tailor the facial to suit my individual needs perfectly. Throughout the session, I was amazed at how informative and knowledgeable the owner was. She not only explained each step of the facial process but also provided valuable insights into how to care for my skin properly at home. Her expertise was evident, and I felt confident in her hands throughout the entire session. The attention and care I received during the facial were unparalleled. Jasmine's delicate touch and meticulous approach left my skin feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and glowing. I could see and feel the difference immediately, and I couldn't be happier! BTW: try the gold mask! It's weird at first but you get used to it and it's SO relaxing. I highly recommend Jasmine and LYS to anyone seeking a top-notch facial experience. I will undoubtedly be returning for future treatments, I already booked my next appointment and I am already looking forward to it! Wish I could go in every day if I could!!! If you're looking for a remarkable facial experience that goes above and beyond, don't hesitate to visit this small business. Trust me, your skin will thank you! Five stars just don't seem enough to express my satisfaction and gratitude for the outstanding service I received. Thank you, Jasmine!!!
