I honestly don't even know where to begin because five stars doesn't feel like enough. Finding her…read morehas genuinely been one of the best things I've done for my skin. I originally came to her because I had a ton of milia, enlarged pores, and wanted healthier skin overall. I can honestly say my skin has never looked better. I don't break out anymore, my pores are noticeably smaller, and every single time I leave an appointment my skin is glowing. It genuinely looks like I have no pores when I walk out. Her extraction technique is unlike anything I've ever experienced. She's incredibly gentle but so thorough, and somehow I've never been left with scarring or unnecessary irritation. You can tell she's invested so much into her education and has learned techniques from all over the world because her work is on a completely different level. Beyond her talent, she's just an incredible human being. Every appointment feels like catching up with someone who truly cares about you. She gives the best advice, celebrates your wins, encourages your goals, and somehow always knows exactly what you need to hear. As a mom herself, she's also given me so much advice that's helped me through motherhood and pregnancy. I've walked in stressed more times than I can count and always leave feeling lighter, more confident, and with glowing skin. She has become so much more than my aesthetician she's someone I genuinely look forward to seeing every month. If you're thinking about booking with her, do it. She is worth every single penny, and I truly can't imagine trusting anyone else with my skin.

You haven't truly experienced expert skincare until you've been in the hands of Eti. My sister has…read morebeen seeing her religiously for years, and her skin is absolutely phenomenal. I've watched her journey from struggling with acne to achieving flawless, radiant skin--all thanks to Eti's magic. For myself, I had tried countless spas, facials, and estheticians but was never truly satisfied with the results. That all changed the moment I met Eti. After just two facials with her, my skin transformed in ways I never thought possible. Every visit leaves me in awe--my complexion is glowy, dewy, and more radiant than ever. Honestly, I feel like my skin is even better now than when I was younger, all because of the care and expertise she provides. Her approach is unparalleled. From her techniques to the carefully curated skincare products she uses, every aspect of her practice is tailored to deliver the best possible results. She is worth every single penny. Her space is intimate, beautiful, and serene, offering a luxury, one-on-one experience that surpasses even the most high-end spas. While large spas may offer extra amenities, Eti's personalized care and expertise provide results that speak for themselves. I recommend her to everyone I know--even my husband! I am beyond happy and grateful to be under her care, and I cannot say enough good things about her. If you're looking for truly transformative skincare, Eti is the one.

Look how beautiful her skin is now.

Once I filled out my form and handed back the ipad, I waited a total of 5 min before I was greeted by another staff member who took me take photos of my face before putting in a glass surround corner exam room, mind you on the 9th floor on Wilshire in Brentwood right before Santa Monica. The views were excellent the room was well decorated, organized, with breathtaking views and nothing like a hospital exam room. I was then introduced to Nikki H. my injector, who seemed very courteous and welcoming. She asked me specific questions regarding what were goals with tox and then asked if i'd make certain expressions with my face so she can make her analysis. Immediately after she had the NP Lovely come in and review the treatment we agreed on. Once she came, set up her kit, then proceeded to stick me while I was talking to the NP. Funny thing I didn't feel a thing and it was seemless. Once treatment was completed Nikki walked me to the reception to schedule a follow-up and was incredibly kind. This isn't my first rodeo so to have an injector handle the procedure so delicately for me not to notice while I was in mid discussion, was excellent. Happy to say due to the ambience, staff, an amazing injector Nikki and timely service. I will definitely be going back to them soon. Thanks Skin by Lovely and Nikki H. (Injector)

No…read moreneedles, lasers, or scalpels, and I look younger today than I did when I first started seeing her. My wife and I both are loyal to Brigitte now, and the experience is as relaxing as it is effective. I never liked the way Botox and procedures look on men, but I was concerned about my skin aging, so I wanted to give advanced facials a try. We've had a few actor friends over the years claim they "had no work done" while managing to look progressively better, and also credited Brigitte's work and products, so I had to try her myself. The truth is that keeping your skin looking younger naturally takes a commitment to the right skin care (Green Chemistry has been amazing) and professional treatments, and the microneedling and chemical peel combination is not nearly as intimidating as I thought it would be. She can also customize the intensity so I'm not visibly recovering (recovery usually looks like dry skin or a sunburn) if I have to see people. We travel around the world quite a bit, but I've yet to find a facialist who gets results like Brigitte. Her lymphatic drainage massage and facial myofascial massage is the absolute best for results and incomparably relaxing. Best facial in Los Angeles, possibly the world!

I…read morestarted seeing Brigitte for The Stem Cell Facial after a dear friend who also works in the spa world highly recommended Brigitte for my concerns around brightening sun damage and scarring. Not only was the facial the most effective I've ever had, her products Green Chemistry and HARA Medical have given me better results than any line I've tried with zero irritation for my often sensitive skin. The Ultimate Eye Facial combines microneedling around the entire eye (yes, even the lid!) with a specialized pen that that delivers a Botox-like peptide deep into the skin, as well as a custom blend she made for me with vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and other collagen enhancing ingredients from the chemist she works with in Italy. She also does a chemical peel designed for the eyes, and saturates the eyes with collagen and soothing proteins after, so you leave looking only mildly red for a couple days in exchange for major results. I really appreciate how personal Brigitte is in her care. She is always so interested in the aftercare which I find so kind and meaningful. I also love that despite having her own skin care lines, she is always trying other products and will send me recommendations from brands of all price ranges she enjoys too. I highly recommend any of her facials, her massage techniques lift my face up while being so relaxing as well, but I am very partial to the microneedling and peel treatments. She consults on the phone before your treatment too, so it's really easy to reach out to her through text or call. I can confidently say I will be a lifelong client, and her products never cease to impress me!

Hi Everyone, My name is Jackson and I just moved here from Queens, New York! Before I arrived in Hollywood just a couple months ago , the extent of my skincare routine was washing my face with--don't you judge!-- Dove bar soap. The horror. To give you a little back story, I was a little overzealous with tanning when I was young and immature...And now I am here in the LA sun getting TORN UP with blemishes, sun spots, and all sorts of new wrinkles (my poor, sensitive Queens skin! I'm cryin'!). I started to get nervous about my appearance, so I started looking for someone to help me with my face. I'd NEVER go to someone for my face unless they came highly recommended by a close and trusted friend (which is a tad odd, considering I'd eat off the floor if I had to. But someone touching my face with chemicals? Naah man--I'll pass!). This all changed when I got a referral from a new friend I made (whose skin is FLAWLESS, by the way) and I have grown to trust her judgment. So, I took a chance and checked out her recommendation: The Modern U. I browsed around on their Instagram reading and observing, attempting to get a feel for the place and, I have to say--I really enjoyed learning about skincare and about the owner, Rochelle. It made me SO comfortable, in fact, that I immediately made an appointment. Let me tell you: the experience was unforgettable! I've never felt more comfortable. Rochelle made me laugh and put me at ease as she educated me, was patient with me, and even laughed at my terrible jokes! Ha! She is sincerely the best--I didn't know I'd immediately begin trying new things: facial cleanser, facial extractions, and so much more---the best part is that it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. She was delicate and I even let her pour this cool, jelly-like substance over my mouth and eyes...it was so cool! In more ways than I anticipated. I was so relaxed! I trust Rochelle and I ended up really liking her a lot! She's supremely knowledgeable about what she's doing and, I mean, the results speak for themselves. After our first consultation, my face felt and looked 10x better. Rochelle has won a loyal client for life. That's it! NOBODY touches my face now but her and whomever she vouches for. Haha! It took me forever to write this review because I always want to make sure that when a company or a person goes the extra mile for their client that I take the time to applaud their work and share my experience with others. I just hope Rochelle doesn't get too busy for her new fan! Next up? I'm going to try microneedling! Yikes! Wish me luck! read more

I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing the DMK facial at ModernU, and I'm still glowing, but more importantly, I'm healing. As a medical professional in the aesthetics industry, I've had my fair share of treatments, but this was truly next level. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the cleanliness and sterile environment--everything was immaculate and thoughtfully prepared, which instantly made me feel at ease. Rochelle is professional, incredibly kind, and it's clear she genuinely cares about her clients and their skin. Her depth of knowledge blew me away. I learned so much about skin health during our session--things I didn't even know I didn't know! Her expertise in skin function truly sets her apart. DMK is all about restoring skin functionality at the cellular level--not just surface glow--and I felt that difference instantly. This isn't your average "relax and rinse" facial. It's results-driven, science-backed, and transformative. I'm personally obsessed with treating "inflammaging" and this treatment is PERFECT to target exactly what I'm dealing with. There are facials... and then there's Rochelle's work. No one else in the industry even compares. Thank you so much--I can't wait to come back! read more

Realizing I have never left a review has me baffled! Rochelle is the Skin God. She completely changed my skin (and life). I had acne that didn't seem possible to fix, to the point I almost gave up on trying. I had gotten facials and extractions before that somehow made it worse, or left purging and scarring for months to come. After ONE facial and simplifying my routine via her recommendations, my skin started to clear up and I finally had hope. It's by far the best investment I've made to my career, social life, and self esteem. It's been 3-4 years of seeing her consistently and my skin is completely clear, evenly toned, and healthy. She never makes you feel pressured to spend unnecessarily, and I trust her completely! (bonus she is funny and wonderful to spend a time with) My before and after photos are wild to look at. I could not be more grateful for finding The Modern U. read more

My first review on Yelp & well worth it. Rochelle is so sweet and her facial was amazing - and she answers all my questions without any hard sell. I had wanted to try microcurrent treatments for a while and her other reviews seemed promising. I purchased a package from her & have had 4 so far. I am amazed at how my marionette lines are less visible and my jaw line is more defined. I can't wait to see how much better I will look at the end of my sessions. As always - I am hoping for the miracle non-injectable cure. I just can't do botox. read more

When it comes to my lips, I felt like one day they just disappeared when I used to have really full and plump ones. TBH I wasn't thrilled that the only viable option to regain some of my lost volume was fillers. I had read about botched jobs where the lips are uneven or look like duck lips. I had also heard about filler cumulation and migration. This really made me nervous so I did 5 hours of research to try to find an injector I could trust. I wanted someone who was more focused on producing a natural and balanced appearance through rejuvenation NOT augmentation. I have OCPD so I also wanted to find a technique oriented perfectionist who was a student of her craft. After researching photos and reviews on Reddit, Google, and Yelp for weeks, I chose Skinbiotic and specifically Kami. Here's why: - People raved about Kami's genuineness and her skill - The before and after photos of her work revealed a natural and tasteful style - Skinbiotic was offering a year end special and the prices for fillers and Botox was incredible BUT I have heard of places that don't actually use the real stuff but knock offs that don't work and/or last so I decided to see if Skinbiotic was listed on Botox/Juvederm's Alle site as a provider which I was thrilled to affirmatively confirm. ( BTW some other injectors that have great reviews are NOT listed on the Alle site). I am sooooo happy with my choice. From the get go, I got a very warm feeling from Kami who did not overbook herself so she was solely focused on me. She spent time asking what I wanted and agreed that regaining some of my lost lip volume would be appropriate. Here's the moment of truth for me: I said I did not want duck lips and Kami responded by suggesting I should switch from Juvederm which I asked for to Restylane and she explained that Juvederm has a thicker consistency which can create more protrusion which some people prefer but in my case, she recommended the more viscous Restylane ( which is also the preferred filler for the under eye area because the tissue is very thin). While Kami was injecting my lips, I was impressed by her attention to detail. She was not rushing to finish but rather she was meticulous about each and every injection and i could sense the wheels turning. Anyways after about 1.5 weeks all the bruising and swelling is gone and I couldn't be happier with my refreshed lips!! I have missed them but they are back!! Thank you Kami! Muah
