I had been hearing great things about the benefits of the Moxi laser, so I stopped by SkinSpirit…read moreafter work to learn more. I was lucky to connect with Ashley, who happened to be between clients at the front desk--and I'm so glad I did. She is an outstanding nurse practitioner and has truly transformed my skin. I came in with concerns about pigmentation from years of sun exposure, age spots, and possible melasma related to hormonal changes. Ashley took the time to listen, explain my options, and recommend a thoughtful, personalized approach. My goal was to achieve clearer, healthier skin so I could wear less makeup as I age--and she completely understood that "less is more," especially as makeup can settle into fine lines over time. I felt confident, informed, and genuinely cared for throughout the process. While I initially wanted fast results, she thoughtfully explained that great skin is an investment and a process--and that approach made all the difference. She wants you to be 100% satisfied with the results. My skin looks incredible, and I only regret not doing this sooner. Ashley genuinely cares about her clients and their results, and she is now my go‑to for all my aesthetic needs.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Shawna, PA-C, and her assistant Franky at SkinSpirit in…read moreNewport Beach. I was referred to Shawna by my oculoplastic surgeon after I shared how unhappy I had been for the past year with lip filler done elsewhere. I had specifically asked for natural and minimal, but the injector I went to, who marketed herself as a "Master Injector," completely overfilled my lips and destroyed my Cupid's bow. It left me feeling self-conscious and honestly very hesitant to ever trust anyone again. From the moment I walked into SkinSpirit, I had a sense I was on the right track. The clinic is beautiful, elegant, high-end, calming, and welcoming. The front desk staff are warm, professional, and clearly care about their patients. My consultation with Shawna and Franky was exceptional. Their bedside manner is truly special. Shawna took the time to really listen to my fears, concerns, and goals, even while I was crying because I was so nervous about trusting someone again. She reassured me that restoring my lips to a natural look was absolutely possible with the right approach and expertise. We began the process of dissolving my previous filler, and the preparation was incredibly thoughtful and careful. They prioritized my comfort and wellbeing throughout the entire appointment. Dissolving filler can be quite painful, but Shawna and Franky were so empathetic and supportive the entire time. They also offer NOX, a nitrous oxide and oxygen mix for pain and anxiety management, which was a huge help. Not many clinics offer this option, and it truly made a difficult procedure much more manageable. I am currently about halfway through my lip restoration journey, and I already feel so relieved knowing I am finally in the right hands. In a few weeks we will begin a very conservative, natural lip enhancement, and I am genuinely excited about the outcome. If you are looking for someone who combines technical skill, aesthetic judgment, honesty, and genuine compassion, Shawna is the injector you want. Franky is an incredible assistant and makes the entire experience feel safe and supportive. I will absolutely update this review once my final results are complete, but so far my experience has been nothing short of outstanding.

I have been a loyal Dr. Laser customer with this location for several years but my recent…read moreexperiences has pushed me to write this review. I booked a laser hair removal appointment weeks in advance for July 3rd and was told the location would be open. I called multiple times over the last few weeks and left voicemails trying to reach someone, I never got a single callback. I no longer live in the area and booked this appointment my only chance back in town. On the morning of my appointment I called to confirm since I never received a confirmation email or reminder. No one answered. I had to call the Manhattan Beach location just to find out that Costa Mesa was closed. I was never notified. No call, no email, nothing. This location has gone noticeably downhill. It is nearly impossible to reach anyone by phone, and they have switched away from medical grade numbing cream which has made tattoo removal significantly more painful than it used to be. I still have several sessions remaining that I need to use up, but if you are looking for a reliable provider I would honestly recommend going elsewhere. The quality of this location has gone down tremendously and I cannot in good conscience recommend it to anyone. I genuinely hope management addresses these issues because the service I experienced years ago was excellent. This is not that.

I've had a Belle Vie membership for over a year, and my main reason for keeping it was Jasmine…read more I've been coming to Belle Vie for the past 3 years and always had great experiences with her. Unfortunately, after Jasmine left Belle Vie, I decided to give NP Jessica a try since I still had my membership. After my experience today, I can confidently say I will not be going back. I got AquaGold microneedling done today and felt very undermined and blindsided. I arrived at 3:05 for optional numbing before my 3:30 appointment, but when I asked about numbing I was told they don't numb for this procedure because 1) it doesn't hurt and 2) it's much quicker than normal microneedling. Both of those statements turned out to be false. I was seen at 3:15 and finished my session around 3:40. At first the pain was bearable, but as the procedure continued it became increasingly painful. After I repeatedly told NP Jessica how much it hurt, she asked if it was my first time microneedling--even though I had already told her it was my first time when she walked into the room and that I was excited to try something new. Her response of "ohhhh I'm so sorry" made it feel like what I had shared beforehand wasn't really taken into account. For context, I have a very high pain tolerance. I've done multiple sessions of PRF EZGel under my eyes with NP Jasmine (formerly at Belle Vie and now at Intemporel Clinic). I've even been told I'm an easy patient to work on because I really do not complain. After the appointment, I called immediately while sitting in my car to be reminded of the post-care instructions because I was honestly so discombobulated from the experience that I couldn't recall them. I also got a second opinion from another NP based in Newport, who told me they absolutely could have numbed me rather than telling me the procedure wouldn't hurt and was quicker. I called back again and ended up getting connected to the receptionist at the Cerritos location, which was bizzare because 22 minute prior the Newport receptionist picked up. She was very apologetic and helped answer all of my questions. I mentioned that for future reference, I believe NP Jessica could be more mindful and transparent about the pain level and the fact that everyone's tolerance varies. I even said I would have gladly paid extra for numbing if that was the issue. She informed me that numbing is actually complimentary and that if I arrived early and asked about it, they could have simply asked if that was something I wanted rather than dismissing it. I will say that Z is the absolute best, and every facial I've gotten from her has been so good!! Although I won't be returning to Belle Vie after 3 years of coming here, I do wish them the best!!

For my first session, she educated me on how laser hair removal works & discussed post treatment care. During the active lasering time, she consistently checked in with my on my pain tolerance. We found that I could tolerate it much better if she went faster & continuous rather than pausing between each "zap". A little over 2 weeks after, I messaged New Look since it looked like a line on each lower leg was missed. Since the hair remained there, un-zapped looking and continuing to grow after 3 weeks, I came in for a super speedy missed section session. I appreciate that they offer missed session sections at no charge. There's plenty of parking at their MacArthur location. There's a large Tesla charging station right outside in case you drive a Tesla and need to charge! I'm eager to see the results when my many laser sessions are done. So far, a great first laser experience!

Response to Amoderm:…read more Your response contains several inaccurate statements. My concerns did not "magically reappear" after 8 years. The swelling, lumps, discoloration, and contour irregularities have been present continuously since the original treatment and have been documented throughout the past eight years by multiple medical professionals. Shortly after the filler was placed, I sought evaluation from a nationally recognized injector and trainer who diagnosed malar edema and advised that the filler had been improperly placed. This was my first experience with tear trough filler or any filler. Since then, I have consulted numerous injectors, vein specialists, and oculoplastic surgeons, all of which is documented. Contrary to your statement, there is extensive published discussion within the aesthetic community regarding the long-term complications of tear trough filler, including persistent swelling, malar edema, Tyndall effect, migration, and filler remaining detectable years after injection. These are recognized complications and not claims I have invented. I have never stated that this experience was a "new" problem that suddenly appeared after eight years. I have consistently stated that it has been an ongoing issue since the original treatment. My review reflects my personal experience and documented medical history. Facts, opinions, and personal experiences are not defamation. Since you have suggested legal action, I welcome the opportunity to pursue this further.
