I just had my first hydrafacil with Melody. She explain every single thing she was doing and I even asked about the buzz about the LED light other places use and she was honest about her view on it. Also loved the fact she advice to see how my skin felt with this facial and to finish whatever I use on my skin before starting on the new regiment we discussed. I love places where they don't push you to buy their products. Overall, I Loved her! Definitely will be coming back to continue my treatment. read more

I was looking for a good place for skincare and i found Skin technology Melody is a very honest which makes a difference when you are trusting someone with your skin. She is honest wiht her evaluation, works with your bugget and makes you feel very comfortable. You leave relaxed with glowing amazing renewed skin. Love this place. read more

Melody is great! Definitely going back :) She's also very flexible with times, which is awesome, and makes great recommendations.

Melody is amazing! I was dealing with acne issues and psoriasis as a result of stress! My acne is gone and we have moved on to anti- aging. My skin is well underway to recovery and the scarring is disappearing! I highly recommend her! read more

I found skin technology after falling in love with PCA skin Care products which have truly been a blessing for my acne prone skin. I literally called about 15 different spa locations in OC and nobody carried the products with the exception of Skin technology. Melody was so polite and helpful to answering all of my questions. I buy all of my products from them and they are so knowledgeable. Recently I made an appointment for a Microdermabrasion facial with a PCA Skin Peel with Melody. They are so amazing that they are usually booked so I would recommend to reserve far in advance. She was so kind to offer to come in early for my booking when I called with such short notice of a reservation. Melody was so honest about my skin condition and what products I would need. 2 weeks later my skin and blemishes are noticeably 50% clearer. She was even kind enough to give me vitamin E samples after my skin was allergic to the Vitamin A in the PCA retinol cream. Skin Technology is one of the few places I trust with my skin. They offer reasonable prices for their services. They are flexible with scheduling but very popular so book in advance. They are simply amazing and I couldn't say enough great things about it. I would recommend it to everyone especially those with acne, sensitive, and blemish skin. I can say many things but you must try for yourself, I promise you will not regret it. read more

Honestly I've been meaning to leave this review for awhile. I used to have a lot of acne on my forehead and chin but not enough to get prescription and it really bothered me. I tried a bunch of products from charcoal face masks to acne face wash and they wouldn't go away. Thanks to Melody my face is finally clear with occasional pimples popping up. She always considers everything I need and is very thoughtful. I went ahead and tried some of the products she recommended as well and I barely have to do any routine at home thanks to them. She got rid of all the old acne scars and even the huge one from a cystic acne I had to get removed. I've been coming here since February and it's helped a bunch. Not to mention, it's a really relaxing and humble environment. I love coming here, any day of the week. read more

My my frist time here and loved it ! Such a great places to check out will be going in for my second appointment! Thanks (:

***UPDATE !*** 09/13/2017 After reading my review a day after it was posted, Melody immediately contacted me and offered up various resolution to the issue. I found this impressive as it shows that she is committed to ensuring that every client she has is satisfy with her service and that she truly cares about her business. The way that Melody handled the situation was very professional and I have to say that I was beyond impressed. She managed to turn a bad situation into not only a positive, but dare I say... I can definitely see myself returning and giving Skin Technology a second chance. Everyone makes mistake and sometimes things are not communicated clearly, but the willingness to resolve issues is what makes Melody stand out from the crowd. Therefore, I would recommend this place to anyone BECAUSE of her commitment and work ethics to make sure that everyone walks out satisfy. You'll not leave this place unhappy (and if like me), she will work with you to see how the situation can be remedied. ----- My experience with Melody was mediocre at best. First off, let me just say that she is very nice and pleasant to talk to. Sadly, that's all the positive I can say about my experience. I came in for a Hydrafacial expecting it to last one hour as stated on her website. The "facial" (if you can call it that) last exactly 22 minutes - I timed it on my phone. For the price that I was paying - $185 - this was definitely not worth it at all. I even encouraged her to give me add ons thinking that the facial was going to be spectacular based on her reviews; I have gotten facials before plenty of times and her service does not even mediocrely compare to those of low end facilities. She tried to make the time seem longer by giving me an inadequate neck massage (no face at all) that consist of two second rub and 30 second no movement. You'll not feel pampered whatsoever at this place. She needs to make the Yelp offer more clear. It is a smoke and mirror form of deception intended to make you think you're paying less than what you will actually be paying. What is vague is that on Yelp, it clearly offers both a complimentary peel & 15% off. When you come in however, it's a different story. She'll offer you one or the other. She gave me a 'complementary' Hi-Frequency treatment that she stated was $20 after I told her that I came from Yelp. There was no mention of this until she was charging me. It is most likely that she knows about people who come from Yelp will always know of the discount and prepares to offer up what seems like complementary services only to add them on to your bill should you mention anything about a discount that is stated on her site afterwards. So basically, what was complementary was just added to the total and then subtracted 15% to make it appear that she gives a discount. For the price I was paying before discount ($185), the facial was 22 minutes and the extra charge, I absolutely cannot recommend anyone coming to this place. The only discount I got was the complementary service that I thought was just that - complementary - that she will add on knowing that she will charge you for it after. I have gotten Hydrafacials before and hers was not anything different that warranted the price tag nor the short time that she actually worked on my face. I wished I never would have gone and I don't want people to think that this place is worth it at all. *Side note: Just know that if her site said to give yourself an hour to go - you only need 22 minutes. I wonder if I had gotten a 30 minutes facial, it probably would have last less then 10 minutes. read more

I trusted this technology for my facial services and had 1 facial service. It was really good. I really liked the service and planned to refer my husband as well. There was some confusion in the followup appointment and 1st appointment for my husband. Somehow timing could not work out and we planned to cancel one appointment ahead of time. Somehow it ended up of canceling another appointment also by services as she took other appointments in place of us. After follow up to get another appointment, there is no reply. read more

Melody worked on my skin from my early twenties when I had terrible acne all the way up to my wedding day when I was 32 years old and started focusing on anti-aging skin care. I barely have any scarring from my acne thanks to her! I can't say enough wonderful things about skin technology and Melody. She will work with you on your budget and customize treatments to fit your skincare needs. Sadly, I moved to Seattle 2 years ago and have yet to find a skin guru that compares to her! Trust me, book your appointment. You will not be disappointed. read more

Unfortunately, Melody wasn't available to make an appointment with on short notice I still wanted to give her establishment a try because of the ratings. My main concern for my first facial here is to get rid of my awful blackheads and everything else is just a bonus since I don't suffer from acne but I do have redness/scarring. I made it clear that I wanted my blackheads gone when I was consulting with the available esthetician Eli (nice lady) to see what type of facial would be best for my skin. She suggested deep cleansing, hydrafacial with glycolic acid and a brightening add on.. I went with her professional advice and afterwards my blackheads were still there!! Paying $145 not including tip you would think that your main concern blackheads, which should show instant results when simply steamed and extracted. Instead I was recommended with a facial that had many other great benefits which I don't mind but my one main concern was not addressed adequately. Maybe my experience wasn't that pleasing because it wasn't with Melody so I'm hoping that my next visit with Melody will convince me that this place isn't just mediocre. read more

I am only 22 but when I found my first two wrinkles I completely freaked out. I called a variety of places but after talking on the phone with Melody I was convinced to try Skin Technology. She was the most knowledgeable on my problem and incredibly nice. I made an appointment for the next day. When I came in she gave a thorough examination of my skin and was genuinely interested in helping me. She did a variety of treatments specific for my skin problems plus microdermabrasian. By the end of it I felt so refreshed and my skin albeit a little red looked amazing, no more blackheads, and my two wrinkles were substantially faded (although not gone yet she said with proper skin care they will fade more.) I think what really impressed me the most though was their emphasis on customization. Everyone has different skin so a set menu may not be the best for all skin types. The fact Melody really tried to understand my skin and it's specific needs was really impressive. read more

Did the hydra facial . Was done by Ellam. She was very patient in explaining and did a fantastic job

Melody Taught Natasha to be the Best Esthetician on the west coast. Today I was lucking to have Melody work on me. Melody experience bye far shows up with her knowledge and is Better then all of the so called Best Esthetician's in NYC that I have spent $300 plus with no products purchase. Today I experienced the Best Facial I have ever had in the world for a Very Low price. Melody, Thank you for your Integrity and Knowledge in the Esthetician business! James read more

I am proud to say that this is my very first review and it is only because Melody at Skin Technology is awesome!! I have been going here since at least 2008 ish and been regularly seeing her. yes granted I have missed few months here and there and like many sometimes $ can be a little tight. But I always do my best to get my facials and microderms and definitely keep up with my maintenance cleanses/exfoliatations/ purifying mask at home with her PCA products. She is an awesome esthetician and great listener. She examines your skin and makes recommendations but never up- sells. She even tries out different products that she learns about at workshops and peels if you feel like having one and if your skin needs it at that time. It's always a well deserved, pampered and relaxing experience...and not to mention baby smooth skin! Come to think of it, I need to call her now since I'm way over due! Thanks Melody!! read more

I came to see Melody for the first time a month ago due to adult hormonal acne suddenly entering my life. She sat me down and explained things that could be causing my acne and what can be done to help those nasty flare ups. She really takes the time to listen to you and works with you to figure out a skin care regimen that works for you. When I came in, my pores were so congested, and we both can tell there's a huge difference, which is great for this early into a new skin care regimen! Patience and diligence are key. She's knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I look forward to coming in for my facials! read more

I have been going to Melody for my facials for over a year and I highly recommend her. I have very problem skin, acne and dry patches and Melody has helped me to control it. She is a skilled esthetician and customizes facials to my skin.She sells quality products and they work! She recommends products tailored to your needs and doesn't try to pressure you into more products. Melody is very professional, honest and friendly. read more

I had a great experience with Melody. Been getting chemical peels to treat brown spots, hyper-pigmentation, melasma and everything in between. She's personable, knowledgable and understanding. She takes the time to ask you questions about your past skin history and what not. She then recommends what she thinks would better suit your skin goals/needs. I have stopped seeing her because it was getting to expensive for every 3 weeks. Would definitely go back again. read more

I just had another amazing experience at skin technology. I had a hydro facial and I saw the glow in my skin immediately. And a few weeks ago I got dermatude anti aging treatment and it was amazing. I saw the plumping results immediately. I love how melody can diagnose what my skin needs the most and addresses it with care and patience. read more

I started going to Melody back in March to help get my skin in tip-top shape for my September wedding. I am so glad I found her! She is a joy to see and always gives me the best treatments. She is honest, pays attention to my concerns and even takes notes on how my skin is progressing every visit! She never once tried to sell me on any unnecessary treatments and I've never felt pressure to buy any products. The prices are fair and I always leave feeling confident in how well my skin looks and feels. Needless to say, my skin looked amazing on my wedding day :) read more

All pluses! Great service, wonderful results, very personalized treatments, affordable, and overall a great experience. To anyone looking around unsure where to go or what to do, this is where you want to go. read more

Melody is fantastic! I started coming to her about 4 months or so before my wedding to clear up my inflamed and cystic acne. Melody has been so kind at answering all my questions and truly caring about my skins condition. She said if I had any questions about he routine of caring for my skin to ask. I would text her sometimes when my skin flared up and she gave great advice. I have done peels to help with my acne scarring and active breakouts and it has helped my skin. I also switched to using the PCA skin care products and they have helped my skin tremendously. Melody is very knowledgeable and kind and compassionate. She is not pushy but works with you to help your skin improve. I really enjoy going to Melody and she has really helped my skin tremendously. I highly recommend. My skin looked great for my wedding!!! :) read more

I found Melody when I was looking on line for anything to rehydrate my extremely dry skin. I came across a website for Hydra facial and it looked like exactly what I needed. Not many places offer this but I found Melody and Skin Technology and made an appointment. I was so very happy with the results and the recommendations that Melody made. She literally transformed my skin in 3-4 visits. I was relying on injections prior to meeting Melody and I will still have them maybe once a year much less than I was doing before. Since I started on her recommended products and facials my skin has never looked better. If I could go once a week I would! I'm now addicted to her products and her impeccable services. I have already recommended her to several friends and family members. read more

I have had few facials now with Melody and she is absolutely amazing! Melody has a wealth of knowledge accommodated with passion for skin care which creates the best experience for a customer. She is very invested in customer service experience starting from the treatment, followed by the after care. The skin line products used by Skin Technology are top of the line! My last treatment was a peel and I could not be happier with the results. I would definitely recommend Skin Technology. read more

This was the best facial I ever had in my entire life. Problem skin, you named I have, I went every where and i use every think on my face but no one could help me and satisfy my needs. I am writing this after a few treatments at skin technology and I truly truly see a difference in my skin condition. I recommend this place to everyone, if they could satisfy me and fix my problem they could do yours too. Mine was baaad. Products are amazingly and magical works. JUST LOVE IT read more

Melody is amazing...I came in with horrible hormonal acne skin and she has transformed it!! She is very knowledgeable about skin care and is kind and gentle!! I even have my 24 year old daughter driving up from San Diego to see her! Highly recommend her and I will be a client for a long time!! read more

My acne flared up at the start of summer, worse than it had ever been, and nothing I could buy at the store was working. Going to Melody was my last shot at clearing up my face, and I really wish I had gone sooner. After about four visits, and many treatments (including painful, yet needed extractions) over a month-long period, I no longer break out and my skin is a lot smoother and cleaner. It turned out that I have cystic acne, and with antibiotics and the regimen of creams and serums she put me on,I cannot believe how much Melody cleaned up my face. Still, much of it worked because I did exactly what she told me to and stuck to the regimen. I now only have some scarring that is fading, and I expect to fade over the months. Everything done was pricey on my student budget, but my skin is a lot healthier because of it. read more

Melody is a miracle worker! I broke out with adult acne about 4 years ago. I would consistently have angry breakouts at least 3 our of 4 weeks of the month. I tried everything over the last 4 years. I went to a well respected dermatologist and was on antibiotics and different topical treatments for over a year. The only treatment I refused was Accutane. As the dermatologist started to lessen the intensity of the antibiotics (because I didn't want to be on antibiotics forever) my acne immediately came back. I finally gave up and then tried ProActive, tried different eating patterns (no dairy, no sugar) and even went to a different acne facialist in South Orange County. While there were minor improvements throughout, nothing was consistently effective and nothing fully cleared up my skin. Finally, I found Melody. I have been seeing her for 4 months and my skin has been consistently clear and looks better than it ever has. She is extremely knowledgeable, personable and understanding. She is also always available for questions about how to use certain products, or to clear up confusion. I would absolutely recommend giving Melody a try, she has saved my skin! read more
