    Even though the snow is coming down they remained open and willing to get the job done! My experience was very pleasant. It smelled great in there and looked really nice. Staff was very friendly and I would come again! I used a groupon for my brazilian this time and it was super worth it

    Me post peel. Very happy.

    I recently got a deep chemical peel and it was a wonderful experience. Not the healing part because that's never fun, but being at the spa and talking with Lina was wonderful. She knows her stuff! She checked on my progress and had me come back to help with the peeling. After my face completely healed I have to say this was the best chemical peel I've ever had! Very happy with the results and will be sure to go back. You can trust Lina with your skin. She's a pro!

    If you have acne and want results, come here! Lina not only treated my skin but also taught me how to properly take care of it at home. I've been going here for a long time now, if you're unsatisfied by the prices then simply take your broke self somewhere else! Just don't be surprised if you get lower quality service and little to no results like I did. A lot of these bad reviews don't even tell a truthful or knowledgeable story so I would recommend finding out for yourself, there's a reason why skin essence has been in the business for over ten years while I've seen so many other spas in the area come and go.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at this lovely so:) They are attentive, clean, knowledgeable and spend quality time with each person! If they seem busy regarding appts or a wait time it's because they are amazing and treat each client as if you are the most important :) I met Lena at the front and felt immediately confident in this spa :) My gal Monti was amazing both in experience & personality:) I feel lucky to have had her expertise for my face! I got a full nonsurgical facelift ( preventing those jAwls my momma passed down), this included microdermabrasion & chemical peel for the best full effect! Price is totally reasonable, in addition to teaching me how to properly take care of my skin, washing and aftercare. They offer so many great things, I am looking forward to going back soon! The ambience was calm and relaxing .

    Purchased a groupon for a wax and it was a cool experience. However, at the end, they were pushy about a product purchase.

I had been receiving Botox from this location in Cary for about 1.6 years. I was a steady customer. I spent a great deal of money. I became hospitalized for 4 months as a client over 65. During the last year, I had to cancel several days before on just 3 occasions, and on one occasion, the day before, rushed by ambulance to WakeMed. EVERY time I called as a professional courtesy, the most recent, one of the untrained young girls literally said to me, "hold and I'll see if we can cancel you!" I replied "excuse me? What does that even MEAN? I'm in the ER! Should I contact my attorney?" I was punctual as always to my last appointment. As I went to make my next appointment, happily saying "I thought I was over the critical time where I could die".. INSTEAD of CONCERN, empathy or acknowledgment, either the first untrained employee or another untrained employee NOT ONLY demanded $50 upfront "in case I cancelled my next appointment"!, but NONE of the staff employees offered ZERO concern or acknowledgment!!! I was flabbergasted! As a Duke University Chemistry professor and neurologist on sabbatical, I asked "are you familiar with the American with Disabilities laws? Are you familiar with the empirical fact that I've NEVER been a 'no show"?.. that even in the ER I was professional enough to call?" I stated "I won't be back." In addition, my pattern as an established client is once a month with a $140 budget. On EVERY OCCASION Stacie would make me EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE and would purposely attempt to elicit more money by stating- with a very over concerned coercion, "You know.. because you get such low amounts that this won't hold unless you purchase X amount of units!" As I have been receiving Botox for a staggering 35 YEARS, I was aware of this fact and had to repeat again, and again and again, "I'm so sorry to disappoint you-as I'm disabled until I heal, this is the most I can do every month!" This is the ONE thing I do for myself. It should be a day/event of peace and joy. Instead, I left each session sad, embarrassed and purposefully insulted and demeaned. In addition, Stacie informed me "she couldn't inject me anymore as she was now only going to work on 'top-tier' customers!!" I wouldn't send my enemy to this place! It's hilarious to see uneducated, unattractive front reception employees try to pose as authoritarian figures to an MD, who was temporarily quite disabled in recovery.

From the very first appointment, she took the time to understand my skin and its needs, recommending treatments and products that have genuinely made a HUGE difference in my skin. She has an amazing eye for what your skin needs based on your goals. She also has a long-term approach to skincare, which I LOVE, and I've never once felt pushed toward unnecessary treatments--which is one of my biggest pet peeves! I feel confident and cared for every time I walk out of her treatment room, and truly enjoy our conversations during our sessions. If you're looking for someone who is not only kind but also deeply knowledgeable and results-driven, I cannot recommend Kelly enough!

I felt cared for and rejuvenated. I mentioned blemishes on my face and she quickly used parts of the clay mask and offered some purifying serum. They looked less inflamed after! She has a large retail section in the front, but there is no sales pitch to purchase the product. Out of stock items can be purchased and shipped. The experience with Cindy set the bar extremely high for future spa treatments. Raleigh, you are very lucky to have such a magical space, healer and technician in your midst.

It's very relaxing, but I don't see any results or feel any different. I might have lost a few millimeters. I kept my clothes on. They wrapped me in a blanket and turned the heat up to ~130 degrees, but I wasn't hot! The treatment lasts an hour and they checked on me every 10 minutes or so to make sure I was okay, and they GAVE me a bottle of water to drink afterwards to rehydrate. They are very big on rehydrating! Most spas don't GIVE anything away, including water. This impressed me. The staff is awesome -- very attentive and caring. I dealt with Tassie, the owner, and Tanita, her daughter. They're so nice! I felt that I was among friends. Restorations offers other spa-type services, too. During the FIR you can get a facial and an herbal wrap for a small extra charge, which I plan to do. The herbal wrap is supposed to purge toxins and the facial is just pure pampering!

I…read moretraveled a long distance specifically to see Dr. Hudak, and from the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely welcomed and at ease. Dr. Hudak, Dr. Lauren, and the entire staff were warm, kind, and attentive--it honestly felt more like visiting family than going to an appointment. That level of care makes such a difference. Dr. Hudak is a board-certified medical doctor and a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon, and her level of skill and knowledge is evident in every step of the process. She took the time to listen carefully, explain her approach, and make sure everything felt right. My face looks refreshed and rested with tox, and she used filler in my lips with incredible precision to restore them to what they looked like in my 20s--soft, balanced, and completely natural, with nothing exaggerated or artificial. You can tell Dr. Hudak takes immense pride in her work and in the care she provides, and it's also wonderful to see her teaching and working alongside her daughter, Dr. Lauren, carrying that same standard forward. I left feeling comfortable, confident, and genuinely grateful that I made the trip. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again and recommend her without reservation.
