Knowledgeable staff and I feel a great attention to detail for every visit. They are not just professionals, but are experts in treating sensitive skin issues. One of my favorite detail is that although I was seen by multiple medical staff for combined assessments, but always only treated by one staff — the same one — so my progress is clearly followed.

Monica is an excellent service provider. I received my second Botox application along with a Face Filler service. As a first-time user, I was highly apprehensive about receiving these services, but Monica was fantastic throughout this process. She patiently gave critical details, and after three visits, I confidently went for it. This experience is well worth it; I look great, and I look forward to my further services.
