The day of, I was on time and they were 15 min late. There was no one else there so I don't understand the delay. The service room was sparse and clinical unlike my usual place which is a bit warmer with TVs to distract you. The woman who did my service was young and seemed bored. Taking off required language rather than engaging with me like a person whom she wanted to have as a repeat client. At the end, the receptionist asked if I wanted to give a tip which I wasn't used to because my go-to place doesn't accept tips. I also don't understand why they need to scan your driver's license before your appointment. It felt unnecessary, uncomfortable, and somewhat invasive for this type of service business. Speaking of unnecessary and uncomfortable things, can someone please tell me what, "By the grace of God," in all caps, means in the context of aesthetic services? It's written huge on the wall behind the reception area. Overall, the promotional free session did not change my mind and they did not gain a new customer. I prefer my experience and prices where I normally go.

I've been coming here for a couple of years now--I've even gotten lip filler before--and I really appreciate how the team never pressures you into doing more than what you're comfortable with. Everyone is super friendly, and the whole atmosphere just feels welcoming. I actually went during one of their sales, which was a nice bonus. If that's something important to you, it's worth calling and asking when they'll be offering specials. Parking is also easy, which makes the whole experience even smoother. Overall, it's a genuinely great place and I'd absolutely recommend it.

Her calm demeanor and gentle touch made the entire experience comfortable, and I barely felt the injections. My skin already looks smoother, and my smile is noticeably less "gummy." Such a confidence boost - hellooo!!

Alas, I scheduled a date! Keep in mind each individual is provided custom care as we all have different routes our veins travel... I had a more extensive procedure... Thank you for taking me in on the weekend (noobs pls inquire with facilities, weekends are only provided once a month or as needed) Pain was moderate due to severity.

Honestly I would give 10 stars if I could!! Both for Dr. Hvistendahl himself, as well as for the whole experience and group of people I worked with. A friend recommended Dr. Hvistendahl for my breast augmentation, since she had just gone to him and thought he was amazing. So I looked him up, did a lot of research, read reviews, etc. and decided to schedule a consultation. And imagine my pleasant surprise when I found PSS was doing a special study (related to placement of a numbing shot, or something along those lines), and if you participated you got $2000 off. From the very beginning I was impressed. First I talked to Renee to schedule and talk about pricing, etc. Great communication, extremely helpful, very friendly. Holly, who I met when I got there, was amazing as well. Very nice, friendly, and made me feel very comfortable and well-informed through the entire process. She was there with me at my consultation, post-op, and actual surgery day. Helped me feel more comfortable having someone I recognized there with me...especially on surgery morning! Everyone else was great too...my surgery nurse, the front desk ladies, etc. As to the actual office. It has a fancy spa type feel. Very comfortable chairs and couches, nice décor, and always makes me feel calm somehow. Also very clean. I also like how they don't seem to overbook appointments. Only one time have I had someone else waiting there in the waiting room at the same time as me. And it's not for lack of clients...I know that they are a very busy practice. It makes me feel like I'm at some exclusive place, and not just a faceless person in a crowd of patients, if that makes sense. They know how to make everyone feel important. Now to Dr. Hvistendahl. I HIGHLY recommend him! So easy to talk to, very cheerful, professional, funny, and comfortable to be around. (About 30 seconds after he walked in the room I knew for sure I wanted him to do my surgery.) Also very honest. I like how he gave his opinion, but also listened very closely to what I wanted. I took in a picture of what I wanted, thinking that it would be hard to match exactly....but pleasant surprise....he really did match the picture almost exactly!!! Very VERY skilled doctor. My scars are also tiny and very well hidden. :) One thing that especially impressed me was how after the surgery they don't just "drop" you since you're paid and done. Amazing and thorough post-op attention. I had accidently given a wrong phone number, so didn't get calls after the surgery. I thought maybe no one would think anything of it because they have surgeries every week. But my first post-op appointment the first thing the Dr. asked was what number they had, because it was definitely wrong! I guess him and Holly had called several times and were worried since they couldn't get ahold of me. I was very impressed how they really cared. Like I said earlier, not just a faceless person in a crowd of patients. For any procedures, without a doubt I would go here again. I highly recommend Dr. Hvistendahl and Plastic Surgery Specialists! Add-on: Went to Dr. Hvistendahl for botox, and full stars for that as well!!!! He took his time explaining the whole process to me, and what he was doing. I got even better results than the last place I went for botox, and next time I get botox I will be coming back here! Arched my eyebrows perfectly, and gave me a follow-up appointment to check the overall results, where he added a tiny bit more for free. They charge per CC, which means you're not getting watered down stuff, or skimped on the amount. Great experience, and like I said in my other review, I highly recommend coming here!
