Awesome facials by the student staff. Love, love! They also sell med spa products and have an awesome selection. Book often and early, spots fill up fast. read more

I visited Texas Laser Academy to have my legs and underarms lasered. The first time I went, I was unable to receive service due to an issue that could have been spotted by a questionnaire in advance, obviating the need for me to drive there. The same thing happened the second time. The third time, I was given an iPad to fill out a form. I have a disability that makes it very difficult for me to type on an iPad or phone, so I asked for help with the form. The manager complained (in a very confrontational manner) that I did not fill out the form myself. I have never been treated that badly before or since. That manager is the only service person who has ever complained about my need for disability accommodations. When I suggested that all forms be sent to clients before the first visit, so problems could be noted and solved before clients had to drive to the studio, he became quite defensive. He showed no empathy. I have never been treated so badly by any service provider. I find it ironic that a manager at a school that teaches people to perform a service career would be so callous. My advice is that you consider driving up north to Austin's other laser school, where service is impeccable. read more

unfortunately the service and quality in the Med-spa is poor. It was good about 8 yrs ago and over the past few years it's not the best experience. read more

I've been coming here for a few years now for laser treatments and I can't recommend it enough. To be fair, that is the only service I ever get so I can't speak to their plethora of other services. However, everyone is always super nice and laser treatments are dirt-cheap because it's a school so I can't complain much. To be transparent, the reason laser treatments are cheap is because you might have a student or 2 in your session and depending on how far along they are in the program, they might be the one doing your program - but it's always with the assistance and the direction of the teacher. PLUS, I end up getting a treatment with just one of the teachers and no students in the room half the time. Their new location off West Gate is bigger, still very clean and inviting. They also have coffee, teas and water for guests. read more

Came to get a Hydrafacial with Morgan, who was training, this morning. Morgan did a fantastic job and I was very impressed that she was still in training. The facility is large and clean, and the prices can't be beat. Very impressed with my results, will be back! read more

I don't even know where to start! This place is amazing. The staff is so sweet and the owner is the nicest lady. They truly do care about their patients and will do what it takes to meet your needs. I moved here from Dallas and was worried about finding somewhere to get my cool sculpting done, but the owner is VERY skilled and my results have been phenomenal. I highly recommend coming in and at least checking out what they have to offer. I chose to go through the training academy and it was very affordable. read more

This is a hidden gem for those who are interested in the latest beauty procedures but can't always afford them. I've done plasma pen and Botox here and they've done an amazing job at an amazing price. I doubt I'll go anywhere else now that I've found it! Katie is part-owner and trainer and is thorough, friendly and meticulous in the training and treatment. I trust her completely. read more

Horrible place. Constant turnover. They treat customers terribly when they get upset over the constant turnover. Good employees leave because of poor management. You think you are making an appointment with a certain person and when you show up that person doesn't work there anymore. This place is a dump don't waste your money. read more

I just moved to Texas and need to comply with the Texas laws for my esthetic license and laser tech training. In order to do so that means I have to get certified in many areas that I have some training in from Virginia. I signed up for the laser apprentice class and completed my 100 body site requirements. This will allow me to be a laser technician in the state of Texas. Well of course once the state of Texas receives the paperwork and inspects it to ensure all qualifications were met. I had a meeting with Katie, one of the owners of this school, which I was encouraged to sign up for a few other classes. This should allow me to get into the medical esthetic industry in Austin. I learned so much since not being from the area and new to this career that I wouldn't have learned this on my own. I would like to state that I want to advance in this career and I knew already it would require a few more classes. The school has been very helpful to me. They want me to succeed in my career with helping with career placement as well as additional training. I never had that from any other school I have been to. Who would allow me to come back to do more laser hair removal on body sites if I wasn't comfortable or wanted to brush up on my skills? No other school I have been to would have. All the instructors here really know there stuff. I was highly impressed because some of them seemed quite young to me. Maybe it was all the great procedures they do on or have done on themselves? Haha If you are looking for cheaper services on yourself that are high quality i would recommend coming here. Students do perform some of the services but you will have the instructor in the room guiding them and making corrections if needed. read more

I stoped going after 0 results & over 6 visits! The reason I can give it a 1-star review is that I had laser done on myself when I lived in Los Angeles that worked! I saw major results after 3 visits & here I've had double the visits with no results. I guess you get what you pay for. read more

I will do 10 if I can:)Even with all my experience it was FANTASTIC! Katie not just great teacher- she UNDERSTAND aestetique! beleive me or not, but not everyone has this talant.She definately follow rules and same time she bring her deep knowledge and her artistic side to her perceptions. I was so glad life bring me there and I will be back soon:) read more

Morgan is AMAZING!! She makes the process of getting laser on your body so easy! She's fast and makes sure you're comfortable. I couldn't ask for a better tech read more

This is my second visit at this location , great atmosphere, very clean and friendly staff . I'm going on my third treatment, laser hair removal on face and under arms with Camille,she has done an excellent job, she's very gentle and takes her time . I'm very happy with my results . read more

Updating this review to knock some stars off. It's been difficult getting ahold of them to schedule a mini facial as a model for students - sadly since I do love their affordable services! read more

I get my botox and laser hair removal done here. 1- I actually get Dysport and they are amazing here. I have tried several other medical spas in the area and hands down Kaylee is my favorite injector. I get better results here than any other place I have been and they last. 2- I had laser hair removal years ago but Melanie (works here) convinced me to give it another try. I have had such an amazing experience and my results have been outstanding. So far I've done three treatments and I barely need to shave. Plus it's not painful at all to get treated. I HIGHLY recommend this place for any cosmetic treatments. It's well furnished and the staff are very friendly. read more

Texas Laser & Aesthetics Training Academy - Cosmetology Schools Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is my first time getting any laser treatment done. 5 stars for the clean and aesthetic site, and the great customer service of the front desk, tech and trainees. Currently on the 4/6 of the recommended underarm treatment, and there has been visible hair thinning, reduction, and hopefully after the sixth treatment, complete hair removal. Since it is a training academy, the skill level and technique of each visit did vary, but not significantly enough to be any kind of problem. read more

The first time I went I got lip filler, Austin did them and he did it beyond amazing job. I was so happy with how they came out. He made me feel beyond comfortable and was very quick and an easy process. The next time I came I got my brows microblade by Texas. I cannot explain to you how amazing he did I had no eyebrow hair whatsoever I barely had anything and now I don't even really need to fill in my eyebrows. I really recommend if you're considering getting your eyebrows microblade d to go here. Micro blading changed my make up game it cut my getting ready process and half. Completely worth it and I recommend everyone get it. The overall experience is amazing the staff is unbelievably genuine and friendly. I will always recommend this place 100%. read more

My experience and training at this academy has been nothing short of exceptional. I have attended the Hydrafacial, chemical peels, and senior laser technician courses and have been so impressed with the education and experience I received. All my instructors have been extremely knowledgable, qualified, competent, and have had years of experience to be able to guide me as a new esthetician. Not only that, but they have all been kind, positive, upbeat, and encouraging. Tori is a wealth of information regarding chemical peels and Shannon is absolutely amazing with laser hair removal. At this training academy you will get a thorough education that goes beyond just the basics. You will also get valuable hands on experience with clients while being guided by their excellent instructors. The facility is beautiful and has a high standard of cleanliness and adheres to all required sanitation protocols. I would recommend this school to anyone who is looking to expand their knowledge and skill set in various aesthetic treatments. They offer so many amazing classes and I am looking forward to my next one! Thanks so much TLATA! read more

Came here for a service I met with one of the owners for a consultation. She advised me on the products and procedure and paid attention to detail. Later came in for the actual procedure everything went well love my results definitely would recommend this facility. The staff at the reception desk are very nice and warm as well. read more

All of my training has been done here. They are courteous and helpful, and when I need CEs, I will return. The instructors are qualified and knowledgeable and they make the classes painless. As a matter of fact, I need to go look now for a new class on body sculpting. read more

I had high hopes after all the stellar reviews about this school and the work people had done here. I took the Cool Sculpting class and had injections completed during a class training as well as 2 follow ups afterwards. The school was definitely not prepared to offer this class. Their curriculum and instructor was not focused on day one and on day two I was working with only their staff as "models". In regards to my injections. While I appreciate that I was taken in as a model for my injections the first time. I was not serviced by a student, but by one of the owners, Katie. She also did the next two follow up visits. I received the same results. Very minimal. In theory, the Cool Sculpting class would be a great class. However, I think the school should rethink the class before offering it (I was the only student in the class). read more

I've been coming to this awesome place since before they relocated to the Westgate address. I've had a variety of the services offered here. If you want to experience a beauty spa or aesthetic service/treatment for substantially less cost, give them a try. Such great results. As instructors who teach the industry standard to future technicians, they perform at the the highest quality available. read more

I've been going to Texas laser since July. Katie has done my lips (very natural, listened to my wants absolutely LOVE them) I also had IPL done to help with my red face. And I currently finished up coolsculpting with Austin. (Grayce) has also done my lips before. I feel so comfortable here and just love going in general. They're so knowledgeable and informative and will answer any questions you might have. Anytime anyone asks for a med spa I ALWAYS recommend Texas Laser. I love being a customer here!! :)) And it's great that they just opened in Dallas as well! read more

Would highly recommend (and have!) I've been coming here for laser hair removal and have seen Vanessa, Casey, and Jack. I love their instructors here, they're professional, kind, and have made me feel so comfortable. Every student I've encountered has always been super sweet. I've had different instructors mostly every time but I don't mind simply because they're all wonderful, but maybe something to keep in mind if it bothers you. If you've been waiting to pull the trigger on laser hair removal, this is your sign! Not to mention they also have amazing pricing compared to other places in Austin which is a steal for the quality of these services. read more

Such a relaxing and friendly atmosphere! Kaylee was very thorough in educating me on the fractional laser procedure and constantly asked if I was doing okay. I was nervous about the whole procedure - but her expertise and calming demeanor made me feel so much better. I plan to try out other services and I can't recommend Texas Laser & Aesthetics Training Academy enough! read more

The best school I could recommend hands down. All of the instructors are so knowledgeable and passionate about their job and educating. KATIE BECK! I cannot say enough about her. She goes above and beyond for her students! She is a walking textbook! I am so thankful to have met her, and have her as a resource. I don't think I have asked her a question that she cannot answer. As a service provider Katie educates, and gives the best results. She is a highly trusted injector! I can always count on her to be honest and keep myself ( or any other patients) best interest in mind! I cannot give them enough stars! read more

My Experience as a recent graduate of The Aesthetics Academy and Texas Laser is nothing but excellent!!! From getting my Laser Hair Removal license to my Esthetician license was a very welcoming, engaging, professional and affordable experience!!! The instructors there are very knowledgeable and professional!!! I do want to express how my Instructor Summer is super engaging with not just her students but also the clients that come through the door. Summer always made me feel comfortable and guided me when I needed advice!! In all, I 100% recommended this school to anyone looking to start a new career or just to get pampered at the spa!!! Thanks TLATA for getting me started with my next adventure in LIFE!!! read more

I love this place! Everybody is awesome and so knowledgeable! I come here often and I can recommend the micro-needling, the injectable and all other services. Really worthed! read more

I have been coming to Katie and Staff for about two years now. I get filler treatments as well as laser hair removal and tattoo removal. When I first came to TLATA I knew I wanted filler, but was nervous about the procedure. Katie took her time to explain in detail what to except and gave me her suggestions to make sure I got the best cosmetic result. I could not be happier with my results. The staff is so friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Everyone is so amazing. read more

Texas Laser & Aesthetics Training Academy - This are my results for the lip filler. Katie has done an amazing job - Cosmetology Schools Near Me - Austin, Texas

Update: the owner reached out to me personally and wanted to fix the problems I had with the services. She was really nice and understanding and really did a lot to make things right. I went in a few weeks ago for another treatment and the service was really great. The technician was really through and made sure all my areas were treated properly. I was very happy with the service and really impressed with management reaching out to make things right. I will update my star rating once the remaining procedures are done to provide a proper review on the consistency of quality. --------------- Original review: I went here for laser hair removal and it's really hit or miss. I've had one great technician (Texas) that is really accurate and precise. He is super detailed even when he is training the students in the room. I've had female technicians that have missed areas, so I had to return the next day to get that area treated, I've had another go through my procedure so quick that the laser was all over the place, and another that didn't get my Brazilian done properly. It's definitely not consistent and you can't request a specific tech so you're getting different people each time. They're also so booked that it's so hard to get a weekend appointment. My results are not great and I never got to finish (I only did 6 treatments) Texas is the only reason this place got 3 stars. Consistency is really important to the results you are looking for, unfortunately they don't have that. read more

I come here for laser hair removal and have been so pleased with the service and my results. I've had a few different technicians, (with Vanessa most frequently) and all are incredibly professional and caring (even the students). Highly recommended! read more

I've had my first two appointments and they've been great. My consultant was very professional and knowledgeable. I went ahead with an appointment the next week to get the physician's sign-off for treatment. The physician was thorough and knowledgeable; she seemed genuinely concerned about risks and etc. I'll update this review following my treatment appointment. read more

I received my Apprentice & Laser Technician certificate from Texas Laser & Aesthetics Academy. The owners, employees and even the clientele were so sweet and intelligent. Once you walk in the door, you know you're in the right place by It's a beautiful comforting environment. Everyone is helpful and filled with knowledge. The education I received was such great quality that I have recommended my friends, family and own doctor to take classes here! I have recommended TLA to my clients who need services that I do not provide. I'm super happy with TLA and I will continue my training, services and buying products here! PRO TIP - You have to try Face Reality. It's an acne prone line that has changed my life. I suggest getting it today. read more

I started using Texas Laser & Aesthetics earlier this year for laser hair removal in my bikini area. Everyone is extremely friendly and professional. Texas, Angela and Katie have worked with me and have clearly explained what to expect and the laser hair removal process. After the 1st treatment, I saw significantly less growth and after each treatment, the hair regrowth is slower and slower. I selected this facility due to the number of positive reviews and the price is very affordable. Though this is a training academy, the service I have received is on par and even better than any other typical med spa. read more

I chose Texas Laser & Aesthetics when looking for a new place to have my injectables done. The reviews were great so I booked. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. I chose dysport for my forehead and he suggested restalyne for my lips. I had previously used juvaderm in my lips, but I am SO happy with the restalyne. Eric made my experience painless with minimal bruising and swelling in my lips. I am a customer for life! read more

As both a client and a student of Texas Laser & Aesthetics Academy, I can whole-heartedly say it is AMAZING for treatments and learning alike. Even while I was just a patient for laser hair removal, I got educated with every appointment. And after finally investing in the Laser Apprentice class? I know more than ever! Even at my current spa where I simply do lash extensions, I feel quite confident in recommending tlaa to clients and even can tell them about the laser hair removal process. It's all thanks to the staff!! Each lesson we got to meet a different staff member - Tristen gave us the introduction and how to become a laser tech, Kaylee gave us a hands-on demo of the lasers, Skyler explained possible conditions/afflictions, Melanie was amazing with ingredients, Katie explained the physics of laser, etc. There's so much to learn, but it's throughly explained and you're totally free to ask the instructors questions at any time. The classes were all so exciting and everyone is incredibly kmowledgable -- it made me want to come to school! Not something that happens often I definitely plan on getting more services done -- I've done Laser Hair Removal, have an IPL schedule, and am looking into Botox and Filler! I have full and complete trust in the staff and any students I may receive treatments from. read more

I love Katie, she is absolutely incredible as well as a great person. I will continue to come to her for my skincare needs

I'm not a huge beauty person. I'm lucky if I manage to keep my toenails painted, and I rarely wear makeup anymore. But when I saw the had the opportunity to get laser hair removal at TLATA, I jumped at it. Not having to shave my armpits sounded amazing, and the price was just right. Sure, getting laser treatments by students sounds scary, but I they are well supervised and do a great job. The staff and faculty are incredibly knowledgeable and make sure the students are always doing things right. I've now completed five treatments, the hair is almost completely gone; I've had the absolute best experience. My only reason for the four stars is the relatively strict cancellation policy. That said, I don't think it'd any more stringent than other salons and medspas (24 hours notice). read more

Great experience! Very professional and worked quickly and efficiently. I'd definitely recommend.
