I have pretty good skin, but the 2 things I've always had trouble with were clogged pores on my nose, and bags under my eyes. I tried everything to get the bags under my eyes to go away. I tried getting 10+ hours of sleep, drinking more water, cool compresses, and I even used tea bags on my eyes after they were chilled in the fridge! Nothing worked. I came to Total Glow after doing research on hydrafacials online. I came in for a facial. My aesthetician Jennifer was great! She was also very thorough while doing my Visia scan. Every new patient gets a skin scan so they can recommend the best treatment. Since it was my first time I had a lot of questions, but Jennifer patiently answered them all. When I explained my eye issue, she offered to change the standard facial a bit by adding some extra hydrating oils to help smooth out the fine lines. During my facial, it was honestly an hour of bliss. The rooms are posh and spotless; a real five star experience. The work the team does is so thorough and organized, they truly set the bar for medical skin care providers everywhere. So many impurities were taken out of my face that when I looked in the mirror my skin looked like a porcelain doll's! My face was hydrated, and the bags under my eyes improved drastically! They also recommended one of their eye creams to put on every evening to help smooth the bags out even more, and after 2 weeks of using it I see a huge difference. I'm a regular here now. Yes, you can have a religious skin care routine, but after coming here I realized that there are just some things you can't do on your own. Also, now that I've started coming here all my friends have been pestering me to know what my new "secret" is for my skin. Total Glow, that's it! read more

I have had facials in Korea, Japan, LA all of Europe, and there is nothing that comes close to the facial that I get at Total Glow. I've been coming to Total Glow now for 6 months, every month, for the Elevated Glow HydraFacial and the LED light therapy. My skin has never looked better, I get complemented all the time on my skin, and I've never felt better about the products that I'm putting on my face. I was a little skeptical at first of the Environ products they have available, but now that I've incorporated a few of the items into my routine, I've seen massive changes in my skin. Yes, it's a little expensive, but you will see massive changes in the health of your skin. It's totally (pun intended) worth it. read more

A few years later -- I'm coming back to add an updated review. Total Glow is still amazing. It always smells fantastic, the staff is welcoming. I'm still over the moon about this place. But this specific update is about one of the staff named Tina. For a long time now, Tina has done my monthly treatments. She is incredibly kind, warm, and super friendly. I had my latest treatment (hydrafacial) earlier this week, towards the end of the treatment, I had a mild panic attack (I had a super stressful week at work so I think that's what could have brought it on -- please note that the treatments themselves are super relaxing!) Anyway, Tina was just so understanding of the whole thing. She sat me up, talked to me, made me feel so comfortable (even when I was feeling a little embarrassed), and what can I say? She is stellar. So thank you Tina for helping me through -- your empathy and your kindness made my day (and week) so much better. read more

My review refers only to Chiho, otherwise I would for sure not give a five stars review. I am a member in Menlo Park location. My first facial was great! I felt well taken care of, relaxed and I decided to get a membership. My second visit was terrible... I felt rushed, it was nothing like the first facial that I got. Not to mention I was freezing cold, and the provider didn't even care to ask (my bad I didn't say anything, that's true) if I feel comfortable and if I am not cold- the room was truly FREEZING. Such a disappointing experience! I honestly almost gave you like a two star review but decided to wait until my next visit. I booked next session but in the meantime I got an email that the provider I was supposed to have an appointment with isn't available and I will have it with someone else. Honestly I got super lucky to get an appointment with Chiho. She's AMAZING! She always care about my comfort, I feel relaxed and can not wait until the next visit. She is very precise and I feel like she truly cares about my skin (and my skin is very problematic) and my well-being. I highly recommend you getting an appointment with her :) read more

Total Glow does an amazing job of taking care of you. I wouldn't normally go to a MedSpa but my girlfriend insisted I go for a facial and I could immediately see results. Ana even showed me the dead skin and blackheads they were able to remove with the fancy hydra facial machine and Environ skincare products. Highly recommend to the men out there who realize it is time for a little pampering and youthfulness. read more

I booked an hour long intro elevate hydrafacial with Kim. The experience from booking to check out was very pleasant. The staff was very welcoming and accomadating. The package included photos that shows your wrinkles, bacteria, dark spots, etc. It was very interesting to see! Kim was awesome to work with and would book with her again! She's very warm, professional, and her light touch is magic! She explained every step, and explained the benefits of every product that she used. She made sure you were comfortable with your time with her. In the end she gave product recommendations based on your skin concerns and type. She was not at all pushy into having you buy the products there. The facility is clean, calming, and inviting. There's a private parking lot for convenience. Will definitely come here again for hydrafacials! read more

I love love love the glow facial I received from Kimberly. I've been needing to get a facial and wanted to try dermaplanning since seeing it trending all over social media. What made me really attracted to the facial is seeing that brown and black people were getting amazing results with absolutely glowing skin. A Yelp search guided me to Total Glow and I've been glowing ever since. Kimberly was awesome. We walked through my skin issues/concerns, and she took it from there. She was very gentle, knowledgable and professional. The facial is costly, so after your first treatment I recommend purchasing the membership and going from there. I will be returning monthly going forward. I love my glowing skin and have been receiving compliments ever since (I also drink almost a gallon of water daily, so that helps as well and is very important for us to do.) Other notes: - very clean, tranquil and professional spa. - onsite parking lot - tea & water offered - the extraction process does not hurt at all (I'm used to this process being unpleasant) - I highly recommend services here read more

Was originally searching on Yelp for a Botox center in my area and I ran across this gem. I was scrolling through their pics and their hydra facials before and after pictures were amazing. I gave them a call and they scheduled me for the next day. Tina was so great, I am now a member and look forward to see what my skin will be like in no time. When you have problematic skin most places make you feel a little uneasy and uncomfortable by pointing out the flaws, instead here they focus on the "how they're going to fix it". Never had a better facial in my life. read more

Jeniffer is extraordinary. Her attention to detail and knowledge over human skin is very vast. She was able to resolve my sons acne problems with her expertise. I would recommend to come here for all your skin problems. read more

Taking better care of myself was a part of my new year resolutions list in 2018/19, so after some research I started my membership with Total Glow Wellness - I'm here every month for Elevated Glow HydraFacial with Svitlana, and I love it so much! My skin looks and feels so much better now - tremendously reduced redness, fine lines, pores, and pigmentation. I receive many compliments from friends and colleagues on how much better my skin looks! Svitlana is great, with a lot of knowledge about products, procedures, skin routines; she is sweet and caring, makes me so relaxed and feel pampered. As a toddler mom, I need that - feel recharged after every session. And my skin thanks me every time! Thank you, Total Glow and Svitlana!!! Keep up great work! read more

I've only been here for the HydraFacial services with Omnilux LED therapy and dermaplaning. Every time I come here, I leave feeling fresh and completely satisfied with the services I've received. Their Environ products are fantastic and I also invested in one of their micro-needling rollers. I have nothing but positive things to say about this place. I plan on indulging in some of their other services very, very soon. If you want to be pampered with a luxury touch, look no further. read more

I got my lips done here and it was amazing. I've had it done at two other places before that cost the same and weren't nearly as good. The nurse practitioner clearly specializes in lips and makes sure every client has perfect ones for their face. The pain management is much better than what they use at other places. They are also very professional. They over charged me once and immediately sent me an apology email. They refunded me and offered me a complimentary service for the mistake. I would highly recommend them to anybody. read more

In Feb I had a extremely bad acne flare up and have been coming here for the past couple months for acne treatments and hydra facials. I've battled with skin problems for a long time now and I'm really grateful I found Total Glow for help. Ana is really wonderful and am seeing improvements in my face. Struggling with acne is difficult so I'm glad to have help. I was recommend to use the environ skin line and am also seeing improvements. I highly recommend total glow! read more

This is a two-part review (both of which I give five stars) Making an appointment was super easy, went through the forum on their site which then they responded by email fairly quickly. Rest was through texting which is my preference of communication and super easy. I made an appointment for a consultation on Kybella and to get a facial. There's plenty of parking with privacy. When you arrive you just text them and they'll let you know when they're ready for you to walk up to the door. Took my temperature and gave me some hand sanitizer, so they follow covid safety protocols. Kybella Consultation went great. I forgot the N.P.'s name who helped me but she's amazing!! We went through what I'm trying to accomplish and went through with the pros/cons, answered all my questions. Checked to see if I'm a candidate, which I was, so went started talking about pricing! She was able to do the injections the same day but I clarified with her that I also booked an appointment for a facial so she worked around that and was able to administer the Kybella after my facial! Fast forward to after my facial she put numbing cream under my chin area and let it sit. Using three syringes administered the Kybella which was quick. Wasn't as painful as I thought, just felt like a tiny stab. She then gave me an iced pack to hold under my chin and take home. A couple of days later my chin is still swollen but there's no pain, just annoyance of that "bullfrog" look and some weird jiggling. Not sure how else to explain. So far so good. Ok, now going back to when I got the Hydrofacial: Kim did an amazing job! We started with a machine where it tracked all sorts of data, big pore areas, pollution, spots, etc (Sorry, I cannot remember them all). During the facial, she explained which product she was using, the benefits, and how I should be using them. Was very relaxing and informative. My skin was so clean, smooth and even looked brighter! Most definitely coming back to maintain this! From these two experiences, I would trust to try out other services they offer! read more

Total Glow Wellness is the total experience! I was impressed with the knowledgeable staff and relaxed atmosphere. This place is a total gem for everyone. I came here over the weekend for a hydrofacial with Jennifer. She was amazing. Explained the process to me very clearly and took her time to treat me properly. My face has never looked so good!! Personally I can not recommend this place enough. Terri is the owner and a true Goddess. She gave me a consultation on my skin and I've never felt so well informed like I did today. I will be coming back for more. :) read more

Total glow is amazing, warm and sweet! Nam is awesome too. She is professional and resourceful for skin improvement. I've done facial and hydra facial with her for 3 years. I always ask for her advice s for my skin condition and skin care products. :) read more

I've been to this spa twice now and have signed up for the monthly VIP membership, because I was beyond impressed by every aspect of my experiences here. From the moment I walked in I could tell how much time and energy was spent curating the healing vibe. This isn't just your average skincare spa. They genuinely care about all-around health and wellness, may it be through skin therapy, ayurveda therapies, massage, and I recently found out they are even moving into the medical spa space and will be offering IV vitamin treatments and botox. SO EXCITING! During your first visit they do a skin analysis, during your consult, that safely shows skin health using light imaging. Then you go in the beautiful treatment rooms where every aspect of the facial is explained to you. My consultant was Tina, and I would HIGHLY recommend her. She is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work. They use hydra-facial technology, they do lymphatic drainage, dermaplaning, lots of serums, extractions. It's fantastic! I've only been twice and I see a huge difference in my skin. It's really dewey, and my dark spots are disappearing. They use Environ products, which are absolutely incredible! I recently met Terrie, the owner, and I can't say enough good things about her. Her energy was so calming and nurturing. She took time out of her day and offered to explain ayurveda to me, not to try and sell me something or anything like that, just purely because she could tell that I needed to hear it. She was right. I could not recommend this incredible place more. read more

One word .... Amazing! I did the hydrofacial with the red light and I could literally see an immediate change, my appearance was more youthful and fine lines diminished. Jenn was very informative and she had great hands .. facial massage put me to sleep. Loved it read more

Have been here due to my friend's recommendation who visits here often and signed up the membership after first session. Had the Hydrafacial and it works amazing. The effect is much better than regular facial and even lasts for a few weeks. Also tried the NEO and Emtone yesterday and bought the package. Love this SPA and highly recommend to all my friends to come. read more

Dania at Total Glow is the best! She is super thorough about the products used during my skincare treatments. Very knowledgeable and kind as well read more

Beyond satisfied and pleased with my entire experience at Total Glow and especially with my extremely talented aesthetician Jen! Firstly, I loved the ease of booking online through the MindBody app. When I arrived at the beautiful building (which also has a private parking lot), the receptionist was kind and offered me something to drink. The office was brand new and state of the art. Jen brought me to the room and took the first 10 minutes to discuss my skin history and short/Long term goals for my skin. I appreciated that she didn't rush me in to my appointment (which has happened to me in other experiences). I received the hydra facial and it was my first time experiencing it and I LOVED it! What I was equally impressed with was how Jen didn't use a "tool" to violently extract my blackheads which is the traditional way to do it, but she used a hydrating vacuum which is much gentler on your skin and not painful but achieves the same results as the tool. Overall I am excited to start be on this skin plan to younger, firmer, brighter and clearer skin! Make sure you ask for Jen! read more

I had my first signature glow facial at total glow and I have to say it was the best experience ever!!! This spa is a hidden gem. My experience from the minute I walked in the door was excellent! The front desk administrative team are so welcoming and followed Covid guidelines and sanitation standards. The facial was dreamy!!! I will definitely return to Total Glow again! Thank you Total Glow Team read more

While I am often mistaken for an Asian movie star, I get an increased volume of compliments on my skin and handsome looks after my Total Glow hydra-facials. Terrie and Tina are experts in skin care and and the comprehensive range of treatments, skin care products (that actually work!), welcoming atmosphere and etc. are unparalleled. If you find being complimented on your skin incessantly annoying and/or unpleasant, Total Glow is probably not the right place for you. read more

LOOK NO Further! Relaxing atmosphere and friendly associates. Came here to get dermaplaning done and walked out looking years younger. =) Jenessa and Teri are super knowledgeable! We were treated with a taste of the hydro facial and OMG! One of the best facials I've experienced. I actual felt like things were being done to my face and not someone just rubbing oils and creams on my face. Worth every dollar! Lots of parking. read more

Come here for the hydrafacial. The room is big, nice and quiet. The machine is very advanced. Chiho did the facial for me. She is very knowledgeable and helpful.Everything is wonderful. I decided to do the facial monthly here. read more

I have been taking care of my skin since 25 yo. SOOOO LATE. I have done soft laser facials, European facials but nothing was wonderful as a Hydrafacial. It truly delivers. The owner and staff here are extremely welcoming very professional. Obviously all that work here have A+ skin/complexions. Terrie was extremely accommodating me in changing my appointment time. and the response time was truly what it states on YELP. Kim was my aesthetician and was A+++. I had a truly spa experience. with the Advanced 60 Hydrafacial and it has created a new addiction. Looking in the mirror after the treatment, I was more relaxed after vs a massage and of course my skin was AMAZING! Smooth, clear, SUPER hydrated and GLOWING. I highly recommend and will be making sure that I treat myself monthly to the Hydrafacial. and I even bought the Environ Cleanser and Vit A and Vit C moisturizers. And if you are even remotely interested in a Hydrafacial do not hesitate for GLOWING skin, it will turn you off from Make Up LOL. and Plus Side at the end of my treatment it was very satisfying looking all the dead skin and blackheads that the facial had extracted from my skin. read more

I went for spa day with all my coworkers which we do every year. I usually get a massage but switched it up this year and got a facial- and oh boy I'm glad I did! One of the best facials I've had and I've actually had my fair share of facials! I received the hydra facial. They first do a computer analysis of your skin- scary I know- but I look forward to seeing how my skin has changed. The staff is very knowledgeable about skin care and what you should and should not be doing. I wish I could have a facial every day at Total Glow. It was very relaxing and my skin felt great! I definitely will go back- will be interesting to experience the spa just as a regular client since we had the entire spa to ourselves. read more

Color me extremely happy... AND 'totally glowing!' I had my first experience with a Hydrafacial this week at Total Glow Wellness and could not be happier! The minute you walk through their doors, you know you are about to experience something special. From the beautiful decor, to the warm greeting from Danielle at the reception desk, it's obvious that Total Glow has made it their mission to elevate your total skin care experience. A relaxing, cascading 'water-wall' combined with soothing music relaxes and preps your psyche as you await the wonderfulness to come! After she reviewed the three-page questionnaire I filled out upon arrival, Kim (my amazing esthetician) brought me to her treatment room (of course, 'relaxation nirvana' was awaiting me there too!). After I got comfy on her warm, ergonomically comfortable table, Kim came back into the room... and the magic commenced! I was so relaxed and enjoyed it so much, I'm hard-pressed to be able to describe the experience in any great detail... But I can say that Kim kept me informed every step of the way as to each procedure that was performed, and every product used. Then... at the very end.. there was 'the great reveal' to show the amount of impurities that were removed in the process. Not a pretty sight, but a satisfying sight to see the ugly toxins firsthand. Not only did I leave relaxed, I also left with the knowledge that I did something pretty remarkable and healing for my face. Some may feel that with so much technology involved, it has to be next to impossible for this to be a relaxing facial, but it truly was. And it is the technology that delivers results. And ultimately, isn't that why we invest in our skin care and skin care products? It's one thing to slather creams on our faces, but if they aren't doing anything to improve our skin, it's a waste of money. The skin care products they carry (Environ) are exceptional, but there is no hard sell to purchase anything... and Danielle was an expert in selecting the perfect foundation color I have been trying to nail down for awhile. (by the way... the line of makeup they carry - Inika - works in concert with their skin care products... you certainly don't want to be clogging up your pores after you've made the investment in cleaning them out!). Anyway... I think you get the picture. This was an exceptional experience, and I can't wait until my second visit next month. DO go forth... book an appointment... and ENJOY!!! read more

What an extraordinary experience. Total Wellness deserves more than just 5 stars! I didn't want to leave this place I yelped messaged Terrie the owner about finding some time to come in for a hydra-facial and then had to reschedule. I was messaged instantly by her and then Kevin (receptionist) who was so professional through text, phone and in-person. I feel in every successful business communication is the best customer service. Re-booking with Kevin was a breeze. My esthetician was Jennifer V. she was absolutely phenomenal. She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. Our consultation narrowed down what I wanted to focus on during my facial. I loved how every time she would apply or massage my face she explained all the benefits of the products or why she was prepping my skin in a certain way. Not only did she give me the best Glow but when she started massaging my neck ,traps all the the way to my arms then palms I just melted:) I was having such a rough week at work and this made all the difference in the world to this mommy of 2! It was worth every penny spent. I plan to come back for a brightening peel:) *I bought a 2pc kit Jennifer suggested (a bit pricey for 2 bottles alone but I trust her recommendations) I've been using it faithfully and so far so good. I can tell the difference in my skin not being dry/oily or dull. read more

Okay, it's gonna sound like I just joined a cult or a pyramid scheme, but I promise I haven't. You know how you find something wonderful and you feel a slight pang of selfishness at the thought of someone else stealing it from you so you consider keeping it to yourself? This is me pushing away my fears- of not being able to make an appointment in the future because they get too popular- out the window. Let me start from the beginning. I made an appointment for a massage and hydrafacial. Terrie, the owner, met me in the waiting area and gave me an education of wellness and skin care. She didn't try to sell me anything. She ended up advising my masseuse which massage oil would be best for me. Is that cool or what? My hour of bliss was with Amelia. Once in my life, I made a massage appointment for 90 minutes. It was too long. This was the first time when I felt like my massage wasn't long enough. Let me tell you, I saw her a week later for 90 minutes and it STILL wasn't long enough. And it was deep tissue/sports massage. I floated out of Total Glow like a jellyfish. I felt younger. Crazy. Best massage of my life. Amelia is a healer. See her if you can... but don't (sniff) steal her from me (cough). Next, my facial was with sweet Eren. She offered to talk or not talk as much as I wanted. I was curious of the process so she told me what she was doing to my face every step of the way. Still, I almost fell asleep on the table. And I felt dewey and beautiful on the way out. What a treat. These ladies know what they're doing. Not only did I feel relaxed, I looked refreshed and glowing. Now I know why they call themselves "Total Glow". I wish I could afford to go every week. Alas, every month will have to suffice. I first chose Total Glow because they won a "green" award, which I greatly admire. Plus, they have great reviews on here. I'm now choosing to make them my regular facial and massage spot because I've experienced that they are the bosses in these fields. read more

Highly recommend Total Glow and my estheticians Svitlana and Klaudia. It was my first time getting a hydrafacial today and I'll definitely come back. Both ladies were sweet and made the experience great. read more

I cant believe I never knew about Total Glow Wellness! This place is just everything your skin could ever ask for. I've gotten facials done before BUT nothing like a hydrofacial. I loved my consultation with Terrie, she truly cares and is so passionate about your personal needs and it truly shows. I'm on day 3 and my face STILL feels AMAZING. I will definitely be coming back for more!! read more

I've had my fair share of spa facials around the world and this has been my best experience, by far. Eren was my specialist and made me feel comfortable before starting, which is always key in making a trip to the spa perfect. She was very knowledgeable- explained each step to me before she began.. and did I mention that the massage was fantástico? My skin was left glowing and radiant. I highly recommend Eren for anyone looking for a fantastic facial. read more

I've been getting facials from Terrie for many years, driving 2 hours to get to her because she is the best at what she's does! I especially love how dedicated she is to helping me look and feel my best, as well as using the most advanced skin care that goes deep to improve the signs of aging:) Her new spa is beautiful, spacious and centrally located with plenty of parking! read more

Ok firstly, I have never had a facial before and I am an anxious person so I was super nervous, but as soon as I walked into Total Glow I felt calm. Also I do have allergies so a lot of scents irritate me, but the smells are amazing, the atmosphere is soothing, and most importantly everyone I came across was so nice and welcoming. I got a hydrafacial from Sayaka who was absolutely incredible!! I had lots of questions because I thought I had sensitive skin all my life and again I was really nervous, but she made me completely at ease and made me feel so comfortable by listening to all of my concerns. Also as a black woman I was nervous because in my experience a lot of people don't know how to care for melanated skin, but Sayaka was super knowledgeable and has clearly done her research so that made me feel amazing and heard! She was also super communicative and every time she got to a new step she was checking in to ask how my skin was doing. I said all of that to say, I can't wait to come back and get another one and I highly recommend! read more

I can't believe I am just discovering this gem! To say they give the best facials is an understatement! I've had advance Hydrafacials with Environ treatments both with Terrie and Janessa and I always leave glowing! The staff at Total Glow are so sweet and genuine and really know their stuff when it comes to skin health. The products are incredible too! read more

I had the Elevate Hydrafacial with Janessa, and it was fantastic!! She is super knowledgeable about and made some really good recommendations for my skin. I was so impressed that I decided to do the membership option, which means you get a hydrafacial once a month. Everyone else on the team was super nice and helpful - can't recommend this place more! read more

ACNE BE GONE! Those are the results you'll see after frequenting this establishment. I assure you that every penny spent towards their awesome HydraFacial is worth the investment for perfect HEALTHY skin. The staff here is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about acne and can answer all your questions that you may have. The owner, Terrie, is very kind and receptive about how frustrating acne can be and genuinely understands the desire for attaining healthy skin. Their knowledge and background shines through and every concern I had about my skin was addressed and treated. I have been using Environ, a product they carry, to help maintain clear & healthy skin, and so far I have DEFINITELY seen results. As someone who has been on Accutane THREE times, I can honestly say that I wish I would have discovered this place years ago. THANK YOU TERRIE AND TEAM FOR HELPING BETTER AND IMPROVE MY LIFE & SKIN! read more

beautiful spa with wonderful staff. Felt totally pampered and the experience had a clinical type quality and my esthetician was rooted in science and case studies, not anecdotical evidence. She also had beautiful skin, which I always view as a testament to her work! Didn't feel like I was getting the hard sell for products, they just wanted a great experience! read more

I've had two hydrafacials done by Kim and would highly recommend this spa . The experience was so relaxing and enjoyable, I even dozed off a bit during the sessions.

Along with the Environ products recommended to me, I see a significant improvement regarding my skin condition in a month! Couldn't be any happier about the results! read more
