I came in to do an acne facial with peel and I was impressed. I did not have to tell the woman anything about my diet, skin care routine, et cetera. She told me what I was doing and advised what I should do to clear up my skin. The facial took about an hour or so to complete and was well worth the price tag. She cleaned out everything!! The only downside is that it is painful but there is no beauty without pain! Every product she used was natural and not harah on my skin. She also made sure to ask if I was on any acne medications before she used anything. Overall, great experience and I will be coming back. read more

I had a consultation scheduled that I was really looking forward to. Unfortunately, I ended up having a medical emergency and couldn't make it. I'll absolutely take responsibility for not canceling ahead of time, that part is on me. What bothered me was how it was handled afterward. The confirmation text I received after the scheduled appointment was written in very casual slang, which felt unprofessional for a spa. Then when I explained that I had a medical emergency, the response I got was dismissive and snappy rather than compassionate. I understand policies and no shows, but tone and professionalism matter. Especially in a business centered around care and client experience. It just left a bad first impression, which is disappointing because I was genuinely excited about coming in. read more

I want to write about my recent experience with Emma in skin solutions. First of all Emma is a very skilled professional who I've been following on Instagram for years. I finally booked the appointment because I was starting to look very dull, dry and I have acne prone skin. Emma was able to bring my skin back to life right after the facial my face was plump and had a glow it looked instantly more radiant and younger. I'm so happy with my results! Thanks Emma for your gentle touch! I can't wait to see my results after we do the microneedling. Guys book the appointment with Emma you won't regret your skin will thank you! Thanks Emma for a wonderful experience read more

Skin Solutions - 2nd day post-facial by Emma. She gave me a "glowing" pimple that's ready to erupt anytime. - Skin Care Near Me - New York, New York

I am such a fan of Emma's work. She is truly talented at what she does. I wrote a review a couple of years ago when I first started to see her at a different location. I felt that I needed to update it. I purchased a Groupon at the time. I was skeptical, and wasn't sure. Over two years later, I can proudly say I really found a local hidden gem. Whenever I have had a facial by Emma, I receive countless compliments on my skin. Thank you so much read more

Love, Love this place! They don't rush you out providing your on time for ur Appt. Orijetta is Amazing! But in order to get the "Best" you will need too call @ least a week to 2 weeks before time. Enjoy Everyone! read more

When I first started seeing Emma I was developing what looked like black bumps on my t-zones, my chin, forehead and nose - and had frequent flair ups due to rosacea. Not a single professional dermatologist could help me! I noticed improvement to my skin after my very first visit with Emma almost ten years ago and now see her on a regular basis. And in those ten years I have moved all over the city and will travel any length or distance to get an Emma skin therapy treatment. Also, I'm a woman in her mid-40's often taken for a woman in her late 20's or early 30's! While I attribute that to an overall re-haul of my diet and fitness routine, the skin treatments and products that Emma has recommended over the years have most certainly made a huge difference! Highly recommend. read more

Literally the best facial EVER. I've been coming here religiously for over 5yrs! Emma is amazing at what she does!

Emma was so prompt and sweet! First time ever getting a facial and would t have done it with another person. She was very Knowledgeable, gentle and kind. Will return soon!! read more

This review is LONG overdue. Going to Skin Solutions and seeing Emma truly changed my skin. I've always been hesitant to get facials from places, I've always been the type to visit a dermatologist and just stick to a skin regimen at home but I finally decided to just GO FOR IT. Greatest decision ever. I've been seeing Emma for 1 YEAR NOW. My first session was great, we did a facial and blueberry peel, it was refreshing and left my skin glowing. It boosted my skin for the better and truly left an even surface on my skin. I was expecting to have like massive redness from extractions but that was not the case for my 1st time. Second time I went ... I waited a while to go because I was so busy and I went to her again 5 months later. This time, my skin wasn't in the best shape, stress breakouts, deep pores, congestion... it was brutal. I knew I needed to see Emma because my at home masks weren't doing the job. After seeing her, I had so much redness from the extractions but my face was GLOWING. In the matter of 1 week, my skin looked gorgeous. She truly sits there and explains the entire process, she recommends products to you (the products she has are amazing) and is just overall so good at making you feel relaxed and at home. I've been plenty of times and have done peels, facials, microdermabrasion and everything is phenomenal. I truly just make the appointment and then let her see my face and leave it all in her hands. She is worth every single penny. Trust me when I say, she cares so much about her clients skin and she elevates the skin. YOU NEED HER IN YOUR LIFE, I'm so glad I have her in mine, my skin loves her! read more

See all

I've been going to see Emma for approximately 5 years. She is truly great at her craft and has worked wonders in my skin. I highly recommend her! read more

Emma deliveries the best treatments to confront multiple issues. Being concerned about skin laxity I wanted tighter smoother skin. She took the time to analyze my skin and make a recommendation for me. She also had the right HomeCare advice. read more

Did an amazing job cleaning my pores I swear I've never seen my skin this clean. I had terrible black heads and acne prone skin. My skin was glowing after my facial. I'm going back for a micro needling session in a few days. read more

I am new to Emma's lovely touch! And boy am I glad I found her. I have had laser, facial and microdermabrasion. She is so welcoming and informative. The office is spotless and always on time and love that they confirm their appointments. Looking forward to more treatments. read more

My experience with Skin Solution has been top notch! The services I received were facial, microdermabrasion, eye brow tint and laser hair removal. The therapist and owner, Emma, examines my skin and makes recommendations to improve my skin. I really love the results of all my treatments and I love the look and feel of my skin. I have dark spots on my skin and the microdermabrasion lighten the dark spot and removed dead skin. I am a senior and really like how my skin has improved. I will never go anywhere else for my facials and looking forward to trying other services that Emma offers at Skin Solution. Anna Summers read more

seriously If I could give it zero stars I would. Emma is fucking rude. She charged me $360 for a $1 mask. No massage, no steamer, no blackhead removing. Absolutely nothing. I was shocked. She just put a mask on my face and left in the room.. that's it.. i Wasted soooo much money and didn't do shit for my face. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY WITH THIS SCAM PLACE. read more

Emma has truly saved my skin! I've been going to Emma for about a decade and she has provided me with facials, waxes, laser treatment, products, and caring consultation. She was able to get my adult acne under more control than a certified dermatologist through usage of her products and consistent regimens. She is the best of the best! If anyone is seeking a new esthetician that is able to work with all skin types, please go visit Emma at Skin Solutions! You won't regret it! read more

I decided to try this place based on all of the raving reviews on Google reviews. Overall the experience was good. Facial was nothing different than what I had gotten other places. What I thought would be an $80 facial turned into close to $200. Charging $50 additionally for an organic mask really blew my mind. I did not like that Emma kept trying to sell me on other services commenting on my skin tags and red marks. It was uncomfortable and I did feel somewhat insulted. If I'm not complaining about it read more

Skin solutions is Forest Hills' gem when it comes to beauty care, I discovered it on yelp after looking for a place close to home. I have suffered from adult acne from 2016-2019 and after visiting Emma, I will never turn back. After just 2 sessions my skin dramatically improved this was in 2019, first saw her February 2019..I waited over a year before posting my review as I wanted to ensure results were consistent with my treatment. My skin is a far cry from what it was and I get compliments from everyone. Now in quarantine I'm so grateful to have found her because I really notice how much my skin has thrived without any visits since December 2019 (surviving seasons! No acne, lots of radiance and I don't look like I'm aging at 31).. important to note I have vitiligo patches on my body and was afraid of trying microneedling treatment to my face. Emma did research and asked if I was comfortable trying. I took a chance and it's been over a year now that my skin has been increasingly better. Emma is very gentle and knowledgeable about skin. She knew what my diet was like before I could Really tell her. I did not receive the usual "routine" treatments that other facilities use (steaming, harsh products) and I quickly noticed why. I have gone to Mario bedescu, and even la mer spa in the city.. Emma treats your skin on an individual basis (not a one size fits all), its not your average stereotypical place- This is so important, I cannot stress it enough. Something else I'm obsessed with; Emma uses organic products, I also love everything she uses on me, My face feels lighter and healthier with the recommended products. She gave me a fresh mask, stone crop serum and a night creme. All amazing, better than la mer (which I have used). I am extremely happy with her services and highly recommend visiting her if you looking for someone that invests knowledge and time in improving your skin's overall health and appearance. Treatments I've had from Emma consist of blue light to treat my acne inflammation, microdermabrasion, extractions of blackheads, micro-needling and glycolic peel. I never thought of skincare the same way after seeing Emma, I won't let anyone else touch my face and I won't use products unless she recommends or approves. She's very personable, and responsive if I have a question about my skin, or products that I should use. Everything she has advised me of has worked remarkably. Her products are hidden gems! She recommended eminence products- a best kept secret. Other important notes- I had combination skin, oily t-zone, dry everywhere else, now it has evened out and i don't have these same issues. After seeing Emma, dark spots have gone away, pores have gotten smaller (some have disappeared completely and my skin is still radiant and youthful. I have tan skin with a yellow undertone. read more

I have to say this. I love love love this place. Emma is very knowledgeable with regards to skin care. She tailored facials to my skin and what i needed. my skin was flawless after and i cant thank her enough. the place is extremely clean and well kept. Even Emma herself is beautiful and so young. HOWEVER as much as i want to give it 5 stars i cant because of her "European" attitude. and i get it I've been to Europe many times and people both man and women tend to be very pushy and may even come off rude at times. to them this is the normal but to me it isn't. I just wish Emma took a little more in consideration how she talks to people before their treatment which is where i felt uncomfortable. once she starts the facial all is good. other than her needing to be a little more welcomed and warm to customers I absolutely love this place. read more

I travel all the way from Williamsburg to see Emma for my facials. She is the only esthetician in the city that lives up to European standards. Emma has an incredible knowledge on products and has worked with me to find a balancing routine that has completely transformed my skin. Emma works with probiotic and natural ingredients and customizes masks on the spot that cater to my skins different needs every time I see her. After finding Skin Solutions I am unable to fully experience and enjoy a facial anywhere else. read more

Great Esthetician!!!! The place was clean and fresh. She uses good product - which is keep for me. She else spends time with her clients - almost 1 hour - highly recommend her!!! read more

I have been going to Emma for the past two years if not more and this was the best decision I made regarding my skin. Emma is AMAZING so patient professional experienced knowledgable and just does her job at the best and most pleasant way possible. I read some of the reviews here and I have to say that if you want to fix your skin it takes a lot more than one facial. It is what you eat and how you feel and how clean the sheet you sleep on and a lot more. Being consistent with doing what is best for your skin is the key here and one of these things is getting a professional facial from EMMA once a month. It is a must. I started seeing results only after 3-4 facials and it's amazing. Emma recommends which products to buy she doesn't push products you don't need and she will also tell you what to avoid eating because this is what she does. Prices are fair she explain everything before hand. So if you want results you need to see EMMA if you want to go one time and leave a nasty review because your face is a lot of work that can not be fixed in one facial just don't waste your time and money. She gives full attention to your skin needs and she work hard for us, her customers, and for that I am grateful ! Attached Emma and I with a (anti-toxic....something) mask made with FRESH berries. You want to see how the skin looks after that incredible mask book your facial TODAY. She is your skin solution person. read more

Emma was able to fit me in before opening, so amazing so I knew it was going to be an amazing experience. I expressed my skincare concerns and what I wanted to achieve. Emma knew exactly what to do! Such a great experience, my face has never looked or felt so clean and clear! Thank you Emma! read more

I have had acne problems since i can remember. I've been to numerous dermatologists and skin professionals who have always managed to make my acne worse because of my sensitive skin (and not to mention take all of my money.) Since I started seeing Emma a year ago my skin has never looked or felt better. She is a miracle worker! Well worth the money. ~Orly read more

I bought a deal on Groupon. It was about to expire so I quickly called and Emma fit me in right away. Skin Solutions is actually downstairs from a hair salon. It's easy to miss if you're not looking at the house numbers but there's a big poster board on the glass of the salon. While Emma is fantastic, the people in the salon weren't as great. Nobody asked me if I needed anything or what I was there for. I mean, if I was actually there to get my hair done, it wouldn't been terrible customer service. Regardless, don't let their attitude dissuade you. I finally got someone's attention and they directed me down the stairs. It's a little creepy, to be honest. I was early for my appointment so I sat on the couch and waited. Emma was very prompt. Right at 12 o'clock, her door opened and her previous client walked out and I walked right in. Her office is a different completely atmosphere. Very light and friendly. Emma was great. She asked me a bunch of questions about my skin and then went straight to work. It's my first time getting pimple extractions and I have to say, there's something oddly satisfying about someone popping your pimples : ) The skin purifying facial lasted an hour and she didn't skimp just because I used a groupon. Emma introduced me to all the products she used and wasn't pushy if you didn't want to buy. Overall, I'm satisfied and would definitely recommend Emma to my friends. She is easily accessible and would accommodate you on short notice. read more

I was initially recommended to Emma by a friend, and I will admit I was a bit hesitant. The first time I got a facial with her, the results were so amazing that I have continued to see her and now consider her my skin guru. I have been struggling with acne for years and with Emma's help my skin is much better. Her acne facials absolutely work, and her advice in terms of nutrition has also helped my skin improve. After about my third facial with Emma I decided to start laser hair removal and she is also amazing in that respect. Her approach is gentle and thorough. YOU WILL NOT REGRET COMING HERE! read more

I have been going to Emma for a little over a year , I must say my skin hasn't look this good in years. People always assume I am younger because of the way SHE has me skin looking. AND I like the whole appointment only thing, because I hate waiting and that's never an issue here ... read more

I have been going to Emma for about 4 years now . I am currently 21 years old and I have been dealing with annoying pimples here and there . Emma is such a patient, knowledgeable and amazing person . When I go to her it's for an acne facial. She cleanse my face and takes her time in doing extractions properly . I don't think I can find any spa that would do what Emma does for a acne facial . She takes her time and always does a excellent job .she does other facials but my skin always needs the acne prone one because of how I break out . She does an excellent job at controlling my breakouts . I always leave there feeling my skin which doesn't feel like a crunch bar anymore. She is amazing and professional ! This is a must try in foresthills. Also walk with Exra cash! Her beauty products are amazing ! read more

I can describe this place using one word: "amazing" Emma is great!! She helped me remove an uncomfortable dark spot on my upper lip, her laser treatment was excellent. Before I had gone to Emma I spent lots of money trying to remove it.. when I walked in, she took her time and explained everything including what to do after the treatment. I'm very happy with the results. I highly recommend this place. Emma is just awesome and a professional on what she does. read more

It's been my first facial in over 15 years and I decided it was time to get a facial since my skin is changing (and not for the better). I happen to see the Groupon for Skin Solutions in FH so I decided to try it since it was close by to where I live. Emma is great! I wasn't sure what to expect because it was a Groupon (sometimes I feel like having a groupon isn't a good thing) but she was amazing. She told me exactly what she was going to do, what she was doing while doing it and if I had questions about what she was doing/using, she answered it. I am in my early 40's and I thought she looked amazing, and she told me she was much older than I was and her kids are in their 20's. I couldn't believe her! I definitely think she knows what she is doing because her own skin is beautiful! I am definitely going back. read more

Emma she's very accommodating and helpful. She made sure than me and my husband had perfect skin before our wedding. We managed to buy a package from her and went three times for each of us. The place is well maintained and Emma always offer great service. I had all my beautifying done here. She's my girl for all my facial needs. read more

I got a facial for the first time ever and it was such a great experience. Everything from the soothing environment, peaceful music and Emma's technique was very relaxing. I appreciate how Emma told me every step of what she was doing along the way. I had a wonderful experience will be back soon...and I feel like a brand new person! read more

If you are looking to improve the health of your skin and learn how to take care of it the right way go see Emma. She has been doing a combination of facials and microneedling to improve the texture of my skin and the treatments have made a tremendous difference. In addition to improving the texture of my skin she has also been the first esthetician to immediately identify and treat me for a skin condition I have called sebaceous hyperplasia. She is incredibly knowledgeable and professional and individualizes the treatment for your skin type. Make an appointment to see her. You will not regret is. read more

I had previously written a review about emma's facials, but i had to come write another review about the laser treatments she offers. In the past, emma had used a different type of laser. It required multiple treatments and while it thinned out my hair, it never got rid of it fully. But Emma now has some new, amazing laser (sorry, i dont know the technical names) that gets rid of my hair completely. I had my upper legs done over a year ago one time after previously doing the old laser for multiple sessions and i have not shaved there since. I just started my lower legs a few months ago which i have never used any laser on before. I have 95% reduction after only 2 sessions. The only downside to the laser is that I have rosacea so it can't be used on my face because it is super sensitive to everything. read more

This review is long overdue. I have struggled with problem skin ever since I moved to NYC. Emma walked me through all of my options and offered many different solutions for my localized breakouts. Since my visit to Emma, my skin as being clear and radiant. She works wonders and recommends products that are compatible with your skin. If you experience breakouts, cystic acne or are just looking to hydrate and treat your skin, Emma is the person to see. read more
