Lyndsay is so talented, knowledgeable, and she and the rest of the staff are incredibly friendly and professional. She is truly an expert at her craft. She will never guide you to "over do" it or into a treatment she doesn't really feel you would benefit from or would fit you. I always feel very taken care of. I've been incredibly pleased with the results from my Botox and would recommend Aesthetic Laser Care to my friends! read more

It's annoying how they NEVER start your appointment on time , they are always 15-30 mins late.

Love this place. They are the best. I personally travel from Northern I've been a client of Lindsey's for over a year now and couldnt be happier with my results. I travel from Northern California for my treatment and services. They customize your services to your needs. They've never tried to pressure me to purchase more services than I've requested. I've had filler and Botox, and very happy with the results. I will never go anywhere else. It's well worth the 6 hour drive. The staff is also very helpful and courteous. read more

Dr Mike is the best. I've known him for years, and apart from being a really nice person, he's also everything you want in a med spa physician - smart, extremely knowledgeable, super friendly manner, and considered an expert by his peers in the industry. Dr Mike has a conservative approach to each visit that focuses on both customer satisfaction and his long-term vision to create a sustainable and natural intervention to the aging process. Highly recommend!! read more

Dr. Mike is an amazing injector and he instantly knows the perfect number & placement of units needed to achieve a youthful & natural look. He is highly skilled and talented at what he does and I drive almost an hour to see him, rather than seeing local injectors in south OC, because Dr. Mike is simply THE BEST at what he does. His products are absolutely fresh & top quality, I've had great results every time for more than several years. I'm always amazed because my results last longer than expected each time after I see him. This guy truly knows what he's doing when it comes to achieving a great aesthetic for your face shape - Highly recommend if you desire top-tier results for your face & skin. read more

I don't know how these people aren't in prison. Why is the Botox water and the lasers lethal? My cure was 5 dollar pills, so I have a severe brain injury, almost had a face transplant ( partial burns if that would take), now a brain tumor and am considered neurodegenerative, Dementia, at 41, bc he refused to help me and RAN. Check out other reviews. The board will be hearing from lawyers. I BEGGED you Mike. I'm a human being. I was a kid. I lost my innocence in ways you will never know. I was homeless, eating out of garbage cans, assaulted... These jackasses ran. It is clearly all neurological, but I don't think anyone would understand what was happening to them, the brain malfunctioned, its right behind my face, if you didn't take anatomy class. You didn't help me. Everyone knows I ignited from a machine there, they refused to give medical records... Inhumane agony. If they don't have anti-seizure, antibiotics IV, etc they aren't equipped to play w those machines. What will they do in an emergency? The product was being marketed as a massage, or I would never burn my tiny face for hours, which is not even legal. The entire device is illegal. Marianne never said you're tiny and not a candidate did she? What will they do if you have a life-threatening reaction? They drugged me up w vicoden and did not explain what the procedure was, what the drugs were, and didn't even tell me to get a ride. I wish I wrecked on the way home. I lost 80 percent of my memory, 90 percent of my face...what is left is not functional tissue, I can't see, lids and lashes fried off...more neural tissue cooked off on the left where she stacked my tiny face more on that side like a psycho. was hours from burn facial grafts, ran around the world suffocating in a seizure, entire face live electricity, no oxygen, no anything, but trying to find a cure, going into multi system organ failure,. Went to 15 cities? 150 appts? spent 10k hours googling? Had to kill myself before my face would be black w electrical burns, and reached for drugs and it stopped. All they did was plug me into a wall socket. My cure was in his prescription pad, 5 dollar pills. The burns were coming from the electricity from my brain. I reek like electrical burns. That is what I have been doing since I left there. Trying to find a cure. before I have a face transplant. The brain damage I was incurring 6 mos later when I hit the deck. They did not help. me get into hospital, report to FDA, write this up in medical journals. These uneducated criminals let a woman burn alive. That is their claim to scientific fame. They don't have a DEA license, but give you drugs. If you want to die....I would put my money on this place, I did. It has taken 4 years to feed myself, and see color. I am looking into assisted suicide programs, which is where I should have started, after I hit the floor and went into an altered mental state. My brain is cooked, hair is all burned, Inhumane agony. If someone ignites from an electrical source, get them to a burn unit. The treatment was to take 5 min, trying to arch ONE eyebrow. How do you screw that up and kill someone? She did my temples and entire forehead. No one asked for that. It's 10 shots w the 1.5 head. She does 110 shots, which is incorrect. I went back bc I was so ugly, she didn't even look at the brows, and Body went into shock. Almost 200 degrees for HOURS. Illegal device for old lady chins. Saggy bits, have you seen my size? DO you think this is appropriate? She would put in on an infant if it paid her. She has no interest in beauty. At all. That would be enough stress on the body to kill me bc i did rest of face. I was sick for 3 mos, needed steroids. Face was weird, then BAM, late april, 2015, game over Entire head blew. All skin became live electricity. My electrical system went berserk and i was burned alive as I suffocated. All I had to do was find out where the burns were coming from and put me out. Smoke coming off a human being and he is afraid to get sued. The burns were coming from my brain, electricity into face. Face blows up, turns white, chars off, can you imagine leaving a human being like this? No oxygen, suffocating and running. agonizing. I could not get myself into ICU or a burn unit, or anything. Months are now going by.....trapped in my brain w no oxygen. Begging the internet for help, when he is my "doctor?" like no one is going to find out someone has a face transplant/brain damage? Isn't it better to help the person? They knew and ran and why the company let them get away w it is beyond me. A live cremation. The torture is inconceivable. This disease was time based, I went all the way, severe brain damage, whats left of my face is plastic like electrical painted on. My brain was in the hundreds. Not taking my life is my second worst regret. Go in there.....see what happens to you. Report to the board and the FDA. read more

I have emailed and they got back to me. I called and they treated me horribly. There was only one time I called that the receptionist was actually nice and treated me like a normal person. read more

I have great things to say all around about Aesthetic Laser Care, Dr. Mike and the staff, but this review is about my experience with Cool Sculpting professional, Bianca Pinkerton. First of all, she is a delight. Bianca is knowledgeable, direct and really cares about what she does. I was instantly at ease when I met her. We discussed the areas that I wanted treated and the different options and precautions. She is very forthcoming about preparation, procedure, discomfort levels and how to achieve the best results. So, this year I turned 60. I work out and have achieved most of my fitness goals to some degree or another, but couldn't lose those stubborn love handles and a tiny bump in the front belly. They weren't bad, but they bothered me. We did eight sessions. 2 on belly, 3 on each side, moving around to the back and up the bottom part of the back. I have to say, it's an experience. The freeze/burn sensation is kind of extreme, but only lasts several minutes until it becomes numb. Then, after 30 minutes or so, she comes in and massages the treated area to crush up and kill the fat cells. It's very uncomfortable and I was a bit ticklish as well. Lol. That was it. The period of time for results vary, but I saw dramatic changes with about 4 weeks. And now, it's been several months and I'm thrilled to death with the results. Side note: after I had it done, I started doing a little more cardio. I absolutely believe that sped up the process. So, I'd advise anyone to do the same if they are impatient about seeing results. It all works together. I will include photos of the results as well. So, if you have stubborn fatty areas you'd like toned up, Bianca is your gal! read more

Lyndsey is AMAZING. I've referred so many friends and clients of mine to her, she is really the best. She's thorough and explains all the whys. read more

My eyes are now looking older than ever due to getting fillers and not Botox but some new stuff that was pushed as the new best thing. Well my face doesn't slow the new thing but looks older than when I walked in. My eyelids now droop and they did not before. The really funny thing about it is I had noticed before going to ALC that my eyes didn't droop like most people my age, and I was really surprised, but now they do. WELCOME TO OLD AGE!!!! Will not be back. Now I look like a Neanderthal. Long bangs here I come read more

Wow what a lovely experience! Professional and classy. Thank you to Victoria for your excellent care. There's no up selling here. They also hooked me up with a $50 off coupon right there on the spot and that was after my procedure. If you were ever considering to jump on the Botox wagon this's the best:) read more

Oh my god! Talk about life changing. I was going to another place a little further than where I wanted to drive so I took my friends advice and booked an appointment for my Botox here. Just a few months later I did my eyes and I am attaching a picture to show my right side of my face (untouched) and my left was newly injected. You can see the lift of my cheek bones and filling under my eyes. The doctor doesn't let you go overboard (thank god) and he truly has the best intentions for you. I honestly can't even wait till I can see them Again! Bianca the receptionist is always so attentive, helpful and caring. I found my second home! Lol! read more

Lindsey was great! Very meticulous in her injecting. She explained everything in detail before she started and as she was injecting she let me know what to expect. Worth the extra money to have Botox done correctly read more

I got a referral to this place. My first time getting filler..... I have an amazing experience from the beginning to the end. Staffs are so friendly. Beautiful Lyndsay & Kayci (Kayci is medical assistant) both made such a great team and knowledgeable. Lyndsey explain what good for me and give me the suggestion at the end I listened to Lyndsay's advice..... OMG! I am glad I did. I love love love how my face look the next day. I will definitely be back and see Lyndsay/Kayci again for my beauty need read more

Lyndsay is absolutely amazing. She is extremely experienced and provides the most professional comfort experience. Always creates natural looking results. She is the best check her out! read more

This review is for Lindsay Hakker who has flaked twice in ghost like fashion, this last time when we'd work hard to set group appointments. Truly, shame on me for giving her another chance... Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Lindsey Hakker is an outside sales aesthetician (meaning she's mobile and comes to your home when you organize multiple people). This model gives you a discount for the trouble of herding cats together. It's not easy organizing multiple people. And it's horrifyingly embarrassing when your aesthetician is a no show, without a peep of explanation or communication. She's nice enough and has a good eye. And when she ghosts you, she'll apologize profusely and tell you how much she cares for you as a person, but her behavior, (her actions) do not even exhibit care for you as a paying customer. Be careful. read more

I went to the practice and meet with Lyndsay, she took the time to explain the benefits and anticipated results from each procedure. I am absolutely happy with my results. I work as an executive in the pharmaceutical field and her knowledge and skill level with the injections is impressive. I would and have recommended her to all my friends and family. Thank you Lyndsay for taking care of me. read more

Had IPL here and I have to say it was the most pleasant laser experience I've had. I don't know if their equipment is just super updated or what, but I've had IPLs done for many years. I always had to put on numbing cream beforehand and even with that, could feel the sting of the laser. This time, no numbing cream and it was very easily tolerated. The nurse who performed the procedure was pleasant, professional and knowledgeable when I inquired about other services. I would highly recommend. read more

I've been going to Lyndsay for a few years now. I trust her completely with my Botox and filler. She understands I want a natural look and she is very good at what she does, very knowledgeable. The office staff is great too. I highly recommend. read more

I recently completed a round of 3 IPL treatments and could not be happier with my results. Goodbye sun damage and hello to clear skin that I haven't seen since I was a teenager. The minimal uncomfortableness and pain is so worth the result. At first I was just interested in doing my face/chest, but after the results of the first treatment on my face I decided to do one round of treatment on my hands, arms and shoulders too. Victoria is fantastic and she has made my skin look so amazing I don't even wear foundation anymore. First picture is before, so many freckles. There are cute freckles... and then there are the blotchy kind that I have, not cute. Then the second picture is one day after my 3rd IPL treatment on my face. After my first face treatment the day after looked like someone sneezed coffee grounds all over my face, and now after my 3rd there's so much less dark spots coming to the surface to flake off. If you want to get rid of your sun damage, just do it. It's so worth it. read more

I have been going to Dr. Mike for almost 14 years and I honestly would never go anywhere else! I always have a natural look which is how I like it. The team is always helpful with getting me an appointment that works for my schedule and I look forward to my appointment every 3-6 months. read more

I really don't feel like I received the personal Attention that each patient deserves. I was given no warnings for after care and treatment. He spent very little time with me and didn't focus on the reason for my visit. For that, I had a bad reaction and came back and still didn't receive the care that I deserved. He didn't give me any post care information or warn me of any side effects.. just feel like he may have booked too many people for his day or just didn't care to hear me out on what I wanted. I will not be going back to him! read more

It's true. I'm one goddamn hairy girl. Maybe I'm part wolf? Maybe it's because I grew up in the desert, and my body was trying to protect me from the sandstorms? Perhaps it's a higher power's way of protecting me from ever getting a lower back tattoo? Or, could just be my parents. My hairy, hairy parents. When two hairy people meet they should seriously consider the repercussions their breeding will have on an adolescent girl one day. I learned the joys of Jolen hair bleach early on, and then waxing - which was always absolutely miserable. And sometimes - Nair. And now that I'm all grown up and clearly over the issues of my hairiness...oh wait - I'm not over it, that's why I've tried laser hair removal. Yep. The cure to all 21st century ailments - the laser. I've been to a couple others where I never finished the treatments. The nurses always seemed rushed...or just evil and powerful with their laserbeams. But it was semi-effective, I just never completed the treatments because I hated the places. That is until I found Aesthetic Laser Care. Both the nurse I dealt with and the receptionist were superb in every way. This is the first place I'd ever been where the nurse actually went through a little presentation beforehand about how everything works. I could tell from that moment, I was in good hands. And, turns out they've got some schmancy cool-touch laser that really doesn't hurt much at all - in comparison to others I've tried, anyway. The cost was fair - they charged exactly for what I had done, when they probably could have exaggerated how much they did. I even met the doctor on my way out - he seemed like a great guy too. Hmm...maybe I'll start trying some of these other crazy skin treatments they've got there...maybe not. Thumbs Up: -Great hours. -Awesome staff. -Good pricing. -Right next to Coffee Bean. -Laserbeams! Oh wait, Laserbeams that are cooool. Thumbs Down: -Soon, I'lll no longer have my natural protection against getting a tramp stamp. I must be much more cautious on those drunken nights near tattoo parlors. read more

Aesthetic Laser Care - Laser Hair Removal Near Me - Seal Beach, California

I have been going here for years. Dr. Mike is an artist. He has the ability of making me look younger and better and not overfilled. His results are natural. He spends a lot of time with you evaluating your face before doing anything. I only go to Dr. Mike and I live 2,600 miles away --not only has he reversed the years I actually look better than I did when I was younger. He is that good. I love that the office is small and not in a $20-an-hour parking structure or big building. Small community, easy parking, in and out, love it. Dr. Mike has also become a friend. I cannot say enough good things about this place and his skill. Plotting my return soon... Thanks so much, Dr. Mike read more

Dr mike is amazing and so is his staff!!! I've been going here for 3 years and he makes me look so natural people cannot tell I've had any fillers or Botox they say my skin is smooth. He doesn't over do it !! I bring a tribe of girls down to see him every 4 months and we all love him!! I was going every 3 months and he told me to come every 4 months that I didn't need that much I was still frozen that's amazing!! read more

I have had a few services done previously in Newport Beach and after coming to Aesthetic Laser Care- I realized I had only paid for the zip code before. The pricing is super competitive, all staff are VERY kind & professional, and you can tell they love their job. the entire office from lobby to exam rooms are modern and updated. Marianne has done my last two IPL sessions and has made the experience as enjoyable as having a laser to your face can be. She throughly explains the entire process before she begins and even the second time talked me through it. I asked if certain other services would be beneficial and she said No. I really appreciate not feeling like I am being pressured or overly sold. The service I had featured an add on service at a discounted rate and this was never pushed or "highly recommended". I really appreciate having an honest evaluation. They will not let you go overboard here. read more

This place is a gem among Med spas! It is immaculately clean, the nurse who did my laser was very nice and knowledgeable , went over the treatment and very thorough post care instructions( which I also received in writing) and they did not push any skin care products on me! The price was very reasonable and true to what I had been told on the phone. They did NOT do a bait and switch like other sketchy Med spas saying " Oh the price we gave you was for only half your face, it's actually double that" (I have had something similar to that actually said to me!) I gave 4 stars because I have to agree with other reviewers about front office staff. I first called to get info on a Sat at 10:30am ( they are open at this time) but got the voicemail and I left a message but no one ever called me back. I called again a few days later and asked about one of the lasers and the girl who answered seemed annoyed to have to give me info. She said I had to come for a consult , but because I live an hour away I asked if I could email photos . This seemed to make her angry but she said I could and gave me the email address . Again I waited several days before calling back to ask if anyone had looked at my photos. This time a different girl answered and said she didn't see my email and asked me to resend it and she would make sure the nurse saw it. She kept her word and the nurse called me a few hours later. I'm glad I was persistent but most people would have just gone somewhere else. The front office staff is probably driving away a lot of their business . read more

I love this place! The staff are so welcoming and friendly and make you feel so comfortable. I started going here when Lyndsay started working here. I've been going to Lyndsay for Botox and fillers for over a year and I ADORE her!! I am now receiving Cool Sculpting treatment and cannot wait to see the results. The prices are very fair and competitive and you just cannot beat the friendly and welcoming atmosphere! read more

Since my previous review, I have been pleased to return to the care of Dr. Mike, and have been satisfied with the treatment received. As I mentioned in that earlier review, I think that Aesthetic Laser Care is an excellent business and had previously been satisfied with the earlier care received there. I think that it is important to seek treatment from someone who is simply the best fit for you. A great deal of trust is placed in the person who provides elective aesthetic services. When one is an educator attempting such maintenance on a budget, that trust extends to complete transparency, clear reciprocal communication, feeling heard and respected, and being confident that one is being offered the best possible options within each price range. As always I highly recommend Dr. Mike and Aesthetic Laser Care to friends, family, colleagues, and acquaintances. read more

Always satisfied with Dr. MIKE, and his professional positive attitude staff love this place they are very professional and always do a great job and making us feel comfortable read more

Here's the deal. Dr. Lafkas is super nice as is his staff, however each time I've had Botox done the results are VERY, VERY MINIMAL to NON-EXISTENT. I've had Botox 3 times by him and I kept waiting for the results to kick in but even after 2 weeks of waiting, nothing changed. I'm an idiot for going back 2 more times but Dr. Lafkas is so pleasant that you feel like maybe he's doing a good job when in reality it's no more effective than having water injected. I haven't had any other procedures done so I cannot attest to their effectiveness, however, I will not be returning. Even though the prices are very competitive, overall you're wasting money on some kind of wishful, temporary placebo effect. read more

Was there to get some Botox & fillers. Lyndsay did a great job & followed up on how I was doing.

I have been going to Dr Mike for about 8 years and I've always been extremely happy with my results. I have felt welcomed and cared for by everyone working there. Ginger is the best at making all feel comfortable. Dr Mike is super knowledgeable and informative! My Botox and fillers are always unnoticed by everyone but me! I just hear "you look great", "you don't age". It is a fine line and Dr Mike is the best at not crossing it, so I don't look like I've had work done. Thanks for all you guys do to help me look rested and feel good! read more

I've done one or more botox treatment in my life (woman can't tell you more). I always was charged per area. Baring in mind that in LA they charge you $200 per area, my 3 areas (frown lines, forehead and eyes) will come up to 600. I decided to go to the doctor who charges per unit. I did my research and went to the doctor Mike. He looked at me and came up with 33 units! Really? it's under $300! I was like "please, give me more" but he said that that's what I need. In two weeks I returned for touch-up on my forehead (3 units). I am wrinkle-free now and have my money saved for more treatments. (Sorry for talking about price but when I look for reviews I always look for prices as well, it's important for me). read more

I've been going to Aesthetic Laser Care for a few years. I like Dr. Lafkas but the road to get to him hasn't been the best for me. It's like running a gauntlet. His receptionists are hit and miss. I've had more than one be rather short and unwelcoming to me. One time in direct earshot of Dr. Lafkas (to which he did nothing). I really need to go back for Botox but I dread making the call. Sometimes I get voicemail during regular business hours, sometimes I get put on hold, sometimes I can't get an appointment for 10-14 days. There's just something in the pit of my stomach that says, "I don't think they like you very much." Update: I went to DermFX and got treated by Erin. I think I found my new home :D read more

Dr. Mike is GREAT! He really loves making people happy, hairless, wrinkle free, & younger looking. The girls in the office are the very best, the nurses that do the treatments ( Dr. Mike does treatments TOO) are very competent & experienced. The prices are super competitive . If your looking for these kind of treatments you won't be disappointed. read more

Dr. Mike and his staff are absolutely incredible! I have seen Dr Mike over the years and I have always left feeling so amazing. I live in Los Angeles but I am always willing to make the 1 hour drive because of how wonderful he and his staff is. His staff is always so wonderful, but especially Bianca. She is genuinely kind and has always gone above and beyond to assist me. She is truly one of the greatest reasons I always come back to Aesthetic Laser. She is always so warm, welcoming and will do what she can to help. I cannot say enough about how amazing she is! Make sure to see Dr. Mike and visit Aesthetic Laser care, you will truly never look elsewhere! read more

As a male, I have enjoyed going to Dr. Mike for Botox injections. His office is well run and his staff are friendly. I especially appreciate Dr. Mikes honesty in dealing with patients. My wife uses his services regularly and she is quite pleased. I appreciate that he doesn't try to up sell her on services she doesn't need. He is very honest and will tell you the truth, which may be hard to hear for someone into their looks. Example..I asked Dr Mike if I should get fillers. Dr. Mike explained to me that I would be spending my money more wisely by getting a face lift. (A service he does not provide). He is an honest Doctor and does great work! read more

I had appointment at 10 with Victoria, I was running a little late which I did call and let them know,so when I got there I apologize for being late and asked if she is going to have time to do the consultation so as my husband and I are walking to her office I am thinking I really just want leave first impression are everything she said she will have to do it fast so the whole time I am talking with Victoria all I am thinking of is time . Talking with Victoria very knowledgeable sweet and the one most important thing she is honest she wasn't selling me anything she knew what my concerns were and knew what was and not going to make me happy.Victoria you are amazing and seriously if you were not the person you are I would have not gone back I did go back the following week to me meet with Lindsey I even sat in my car 40 mins early so I would not have the receptionist be rude to me. Love Lindsey she also amazing. Thank you Victoria and and Lindsey Those 2 deserve 10 read more

I've called twice now within three weeks, and they make it VERY difficult to get in and the lady on the phone is not very helpful and is rude. Such a shame I was excited about trying this place, guess I won't be going here. :/ read more
