This is the best place to go to for cystic pimple injections. I went to 3 other dermatologists and they all diluted the kenalog solution so much that none of my pimples went down. I went here instead and by the next day, the pimples had flattened. Their price is also far more reasonable. read more

I just finished a session of treatments for my acne scars (TCA Cross + 4x Anteage MD Microneedling) and my scars almost all gone and my skin texture has never been better. It still takes couple more months of heeling process to see the full effects. Dr. Sam was super helpful. She never upsells you anything unless you ask her for advice and she will honestly suggest you the treatments that's not their more expensive treatment, only based on your need. Also, she would clear all my white heads automatically before each treatment without me asking. I even had an acne wouldn't go away for a few weeks and she thought I might need injection for that. But after she inspected it, she just extracted it while she was clearing my white heads and said the pus had became superficial since I had been using her acne solution so no injection needed. For real, she would never force anything on you or rip you off. She's so caring to keep asking for my feelings during the treatments. I will come back to her for another session of treatments to maintain in the coming winter. read more

I had been on the fence for several years about doing any sort of treatment, as I barely have time and energy to even do day-to-day routines, when I was invited to a grand opening celebration for Ananya when they first opened, I think about 4 or 5 years ago. Not being too interested in whatever they might be selling, I thought, why not check them out. While there, I expected that they might try to push product or services but was pleasantly surprised that this invitation was merely to inform about many of the services they provide. I was intrigued, so I kept Ananya on my shortlist of places to try. It took me way too long to finally give Ananya Aesthetics a try, but I finally did a few weeks ago, utilizing an offer that was long overdue (from the time of opening), but that Dr. Sam was gracious enough to honor! I love her attention to detail, her patience, and the care she took with me being a first-timer to getting any sort of facial treatment. She allowed me to visit her clinic and get comfortable before performing a laser treatment on me that I was terrified to get... yes, I'm a big baby! She was conservative in her assessment and told me I might not see results after my first time; as unusual as it may be, I actually did see results right away! Thank you, Dr. Sam! Needless to say, I highly recommend Ananya Aesthetics! read more

I have been getting Botox for the past year at Anaya Aesthetics. The office is immaculate, and pristine. The office staff is so friendly and welcoming from start to finish. Its such a beautiful private space in the old town Pasadena area and the attention is truly focused on you when you are at your session. Tracy does my Botox and she is perfection. When it comes to my face I am super picky as I want to make sure I am not overly botoxed, safe (because she is a real nurse), and get exceptional great results. In all my experience Tracy is by far the BEST and her attention to detail means everything to me. I couldn't say enough about how amazing, professional and how happy I am to have found her. The results I get look natural, and even. I look 15 years younger and my Botox last for months! I also recently had a cosmelan peel to even out my skin tone, remove melasma spots and have had great results. I feel like a new person and feel amazing to not have to wear concealer and foundation anymore! The best part about Tracy is she tells you the truth. If you dont need something, she will not push or upsell you. She will tell you the best procedures and if things actually work. Trust me, go see her now! read more

I was in the make up artist's chair getting ready for a photo shoot and the artist kept raving about my skin. Told me it was like butter and how great my skin was. I smiled and said thank you. Skincare is extremely important and I follow my routine religiously. I have to thank Dr. Sam since I only use her products. Defenage face wash Vitamin c serum Peptide pearls Boost serum- LOVE how my face feels with this one Biotherapy cream Clear perfection sunblock - I never step outside without it on. 3D eye cream It sounds like a lot but I live in Fresno and it get HOT and dry here so making sure my skin stays hydrated is a necessity. Thanks Dr. Sam. This wasn't the first time my skin has been complimented. read more

Sam is a magician with skin. She is highly knowledgeable and has fantastic bedside manner. I would most certainly trust her with any skin issues. She takes the time to listen to your concerns and I only gives recommendations that's you're comfortable with. Thank you so much Sam! Your expertise has helped my outside match how I feel inside. read more

I have been going there for 3 years and I have been recommending it to all my friends. First, I get great personalize advices, price are fair and transparent and nobody is trying to upsell me. Quite the opposite, they are working within my set budget to get me what I need the most. Second, she is incredibly skilled and it shows. Finally, I feel I can totally trust her and I'm not felling stressed about risk or results when I go. read more

Dr. Sam is an exceptional professional with a unique talent for skillfully reversing the effects of time, helping me present a rejuvenated and more youthful version of myself. - Kirsten S read more

I come here to get botox for my TMJ! Dr. Sam is very knowledgeable, efficient, and gentle. She's also very upfront and honest about the cost and best options. I'm very glad I switched to Dr. Sam. Thanks Dr. Sam for all the good work you do!! read more

I have been coming here for the last few years and let me tell you, ladies and gentlemen, Samantha and Tracy are amazing! Samantha is very detailed and answers any and all questions or concerns that you may have about your treatment. She is so sweet and is willing to work with your schedule. She is very honest and genuine! I don't know about you, but that is what is most important to me when it comes to these kinds of treatments thank you Samantha and such a pleasure to meet you Tracy! I always look forward to coming to see you! read more

I love Tracy who is a Nurse Practitioner at Ananya Aesthetics!!! I've been going for a couple months to get cortisone shots for my face to help control some of my stubborn acne and to get Botox for my forehead. The office is super clean, cute and she is always so knowledgeable and nice! I've recommended her to a couple of my friends and they have so many positive reviews about her and how professional she is. Can't wait to do a chemical peel soon! Thank you and go see Tracy!!! read more

Dr. Sam is definitely someone who is deeply passionate about her practice and her customers. She leaves a really good impression as she is warm and takes her time explaining everything. She was sweet enough to send me off with a parting gift which is a nice touch. She definitely earned my future business and my trust. read more

Dr. Sam is fantastic at what she does and is like a medical artist. I am someone who bruises and bleeds very easily but she knows how to get around those sensitive spots. Her office is beautiful and super clean and never any trouble finding parking. You get what you pay for and the med spas farm people in and out and have some very inexperienced women working. When it comes to your face, don't cut corners. Go to Dr. Sam at Ananya...she has studied this field for many years and has the education to back it up. And she's not pushing unnecessary treatment, I hate when anyone gets too pushy! read more

Dr. Sam is AMAZING!!! I came to her a couple months ago because I was suffering from having dark circles and bags under my eyes. It was depleting my self-esteem and confidence. I was always wearing sunglasses in public to hide my eyes. Dr. Sam was referred to me by another client of hers. I see her for laser treatment every few weeks and I also use her products. Let's just say that how I looked during my first visit, verses how I look now are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT in the most positive way! My skin is almost restored back to normal. I have her to thank for that. I HIGHLY recommend her services. read more

Dr. Sam is the best!! I primarily go to her for cortisone injections to help tame the occasional inflamed hormonal acne/cyst. She is easily accessible by text and goes above and beyond to accommodate you and fit you into her schedule. I recently went elsewhere to get an injection when Dr. Sam was out of town and I was left with a divot where the lesion was (something I have never had with Dr. Sam). Just a quick text to Dr. Sam for advice and she was able to see me the same day to offer help! On top of it all, the space is beautiful and super clean. HIGHLY recommend!!! read more

I love this place! I see Tracy for PRP for hair loss and I've seen such a difference! She's so great that I used to see her at my primary care Dr's office and followed her here to continue my hair PRP treatments. The office is relaxing, clean and small so you always get that one on one treatment that feels more special than most places (owner is often there and is also SO nice!). I highly recommend! Tracy is the best!! read more

Sam and Tracy are both amazing. I have had skin tags on my neck lasered off and cortisone shots for my acne. I am a big baby when it comes to pain, and both Sam and Tracy not only did an excellent job minimizing any pain, they were super patient and comforting. My skin tags have been gone for a year and half now, and the cortisone shots are significantly more effective than the ones I've received at the dermatologist. Dr. Sam's sunscreen is also a must have; my husband, my father, and I all swear by it. read more

Ananya Aesthetics is such a gem! Dr. Sam is extremely knowledgeable and kind, and from the moment I stepped inside I knew I'd made the right decision choosing to see her. She was thoughtful and curious, and clearly communicated her approach to solving my skincare concerns before she began my treatment. I am so excited to try her medical grade skincare line as well, and she was generous to give me samples of a couple of products I was eyeing on my way out. The boutique spa space is absolutely darling and so clean. I'm really looking forward to my next appointment. If you're looking for a master injector and/or a custom skincare plan that is tailored just for you, I highly recommend you consider Ananya Aesthetics. read more

These 5 star reviews... are 100% correct!!! To those who are battling hormonal acne and find yourself wondering about cortisone shots. This is it, your search is over! This was my very first experience with cortisone shot and not only did she answer all of my random questions, but also made me feel so comfortable. She actually cares and wants to help you. She is amazing. The results are amazing. I can't recommend this place enough without sounding like a fake review.. so request an appointment and see for yourself! read more

Dr. Sam has drastically changed my skin since I started seeing her. I'm new to aesthetics and she has been so patient and amazing with me while helping me address my skin concerns. I'm so fortunate to find a provider that will make recommendations and guide me through a procedure, rather than recommending a ton of things I don't actually need. My favorite treatment has been the Aerolase laser with micro-needling! Additionally, her space is very private and always impeccably clean! Dr. Sam is so professional and I'd recommend her to anyone and everyone. She takes excellent care of her clients! read more

Dr Sam is extremely knowledgeable as to the skin. I went to her for a problematic and deep ingrown hair on my neck. She was professional, and very clear on what we needed to do to extract it. I ended up getting an entire face treatment, something I never knew I needed, and the ingrown hair was extracted. She sent me home with a free sample skin care treatment cream. I wouldn't trust my face and skin with any other health care professional. If you were on the fence about seeing someone for your face and skin needs, you can rest assured that you will be taken care of at Anaya Aesthetics. read more

I am 70 years old and suffered from residual acne scarring and discloration to the point that I would almost never go out in public or even answer my front door without putting make up on. Not ANYMORE!! Thanks to Dr. Sam, I no longer feel a need to wear make up. My face looks amazing after one procedure and use of after care products. My oldest daughter who suffers from cystic acne, recommended Dr. Sam. She, too, is thrilled with her results. I have been to many dermatologists over the years, and Dr. Sam by far is the best. She is very personable and makes you feel like you have known her for years. As mentioned by another reviewer, her place is beautiful and so aesthetically appealint to the eye. Love, love, love! read more

Sam is great! I love being able to text for appointments and questions. She's so down to earth with all my questions and concerns, and she's cool enough to let me save a syringe so that i can spread out my treatments without having to use it all at once. It's a one-stop-shop for vitamins too! Usually I come for injections & b12/b complex/ biotin/ glutathione shots. Her office is really small but it's perfect for what you come for. It's decorated really nicely (chic!), sparkling clean, and has a nice view of pasadena & mountains. She is so cute to have macrons, tea, or bubbles ready for you too. She's truly honest and efficient!! Beautiful results always.. Really cares. Oh and make sure you ask for current specials. idk how they make money here w/ sales so low! thank you Sam!! :) read more

This is such a lovely place. You walk in and, it's just so aesthetically appealing to the eye. Then, you start chatting with Dr. Sam and she just makes you feel so relaxed! She's so personable, and just makes you feel so comfortable that it's easy to put yourself in her hands. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do what she does, And I would recommend her to everyone! I've been a client for about three years and enjoy every service. Thank you for such a great visit today read more

I followed Dr. Sam to her own practice because she is simply the best person for lip injections in LA if you're looking for a natural look. I've had people tell me I have the best looking lips they've ever seen-- most of them didn't even know they were from injections. Dr. Sam works around what you're looking for and gives you the perfect shape. Loyal customer for life! read more

Ananya Aesthetics - Medical Spas Near Me - Pasadena, California

Wow, realized I never wrote a review for Dr. Sam! I was looking up places to do microneedling to combat some pretty bad acne scarring I had. I had a lot of pitted scars from picking at my skin and hyperpigmentation as well. I've done 4 (maybe 5?) sessions along with one session of TCA cross and my skin has honestly not looked this good for years. Dr Sam starts you off gently and ramps up the intensity depending on how your skin responds. A lot of my scarring has gone away and my skin texture is noticeably smoother. Even my mom noticed and commented on how good my skin looks, which is a very nice change considering how she's usually in a state of despair about my skin. Procedural effectiveness aside, Dr Sam is just genuinely so honest and helpful. I appreciate that she doesn't try to upsell me on anything I don't need. Even if you're not sure whether you should pay her a visit, do a video consult with her and she'll be as helpful as she can! I sound like a total shill but I promise I'm just a really happy customer trying to return the favor for the miracles that have been performed on my skin ha. read more

I just love Samantha! She has the lightest pain free hand snd is always available to help expand ones knowledge. Goes over and beyond, I highly recommend her. read more

So less then 24 hours I can say I'm so in love with my lips!! Nurse Sammie did such a great job . I get it now why people do this. What a boost of self esteem. She's so gentile I hardly felt anything maybe a pinch here and there but so worth every deep breath I took. Beautiful clean space. Very posh!! I will be back for more. Thank you again for this new journey. I'm glad you where my first . 40 feels so much better with you along. I'm in great hands!! read more

Sam has taken good care of me since they first opened! She's kept a natural look for me and ensured all my concerns were always answered (I'm picky) and that I can always get in to see her. This spa is a pleasure to work with. Now that I'm pregnant during covid, she has helped personally tailor skin regimens that are safe for me and sent them straight to my house. I'm so impressed with the results, I had to share. Thanks a ton!!! read more

Those who suffer from acne know the stress it can cause mentally, finding Ananya Aesthetics hands down was the best find of 2019 for, my only wish is that I had found Dr. Sam sooner. Dr. Sam has a way about her that makes you feel comfortable the moment you step into her office, she is quick to listen, explains thoroughly and never pushes expensive products. With all that said, the results I've seen over the last 5 months speak volumes more. I have a hormonal imbalance that causes cystic acne, without proper treatment from an experienced esthetician it can worsen by the day, my skin now is nearly clear, and breakouts are very rare. If you are experiencing acne issues make the investment in yourself and book with Dr. Sam, you absolutely will not regret it. Thank you, Dr. Sam, for being amazing at what you do, you have no idea the impact you've had on my confidence and overall wellbeing. read more

Dr. Sam was very thorough and precise in her extraction removal and did a great job treating me. I needed a vajacial for a stubborn ingrown and black heads that needed deep cleaning. After I got a cortisone shot that helped the swelling allot. I would recommend this service for men too who have man scaping in grown hairs. I'll be back for more treatments for sure. read more

I came across Yelp and found Dr Sam! I got baby Botox and microinfusion facial from her. My overall experience was great. I was very anxious from the start. She thoroughly explained to me the side effects and every step of the procedure! She was patient enough to answer my zillion questions that I had after the procedures! It's been a month since my baby botox and I am still loving my result! I will definitely come back again in the near future! read more

Dr. Sam is my go to girl. Love her professionalism, flexibility and hours. She's so easy to talk to that it makes the visit pleasant. She gives painless extractions, cortisone shots for the big angry ones and she even does vajacial. I recently had a skin tag removal and waiting for results. She stands behind her work and responds to texts. If you love boutique and someone that cares, she should be your girl too. read more

Dr. Sam is beyond amazing. She genuinely cares about adressing your concerns and helping you achieve your optimal results. I will be a life long customer moving forward! I had filler injected into my top lip to create subtle fullness and botox on my forehead and around my crows feet. The results are so natural! Thank you Dr. Sam! read more

This review is way overdue because Dr. Sam is amazing and has helped me so much with my concerns. Originally scheduled a round of microneedling after having a horrible experience with another Dr and spending so much money. The microneedling treatments really worked well with my skin, I saw such beautiful results that I just booked another round for this year. I had some mild acne scarring, some of the worst of it was over 10 years old. I was so self conscious about it and never had any real treatments to help. About 6 months after my last session my skin is so much smoother, the scarring is def minimized to the point that it doesn't even bother me when a year before it was all I saw when I looked in the mirror. I have also had some under eye filler and could not be happier with the results as well. What I love most about Dr. Sam is how empathetic she is. I can tell she really cares about her patients. Of course, also nothing but absolutely professional, kind, and thoughtful. read more

I decided to visit Ananya Aesthetics and was instantly greeted by Dr. Sam and her husband. I decided to do lip fillers and Dr. Sam recommended Juvederm Vollure. Vollure is one of the newer fillers in the Juvaderm family and it helps softens moderate to severe parentheses lines and wrinkles by adding volume to the lines and wrinkles around your nose and mouth. This ends up producing subtle and long-lasting results for up to 18 months. I decided not to use any numbing products and just went ahead with the procedure. It was quick and painless for me and took Arnica Pellets beforehand which reduced bruising and swelling for me. Thanks again Ananya Aesthetics! Will definitely be back! read more

Dr. Sam was very warm and welcomed me into her lovely office. She was very informative on the services she provides and answered all my questions in depth. She gave me a cortisone injection and was careful with the amount to prevent atrophy. I recommend my BF to go see Dr. Sam for a PRF treatment. I will only being going here for my skincare needs from now on. So happy I came across this place:) read more

I have had a wonderful experience at Ananya Aesthetics (AA) due to Dr. Sam. I had a small pore that needed to be treated with a TCA Cross, but always had difficulty finding a dermatologist. My boyfriend suggested AA and while the office is quite far for us, we knew immediately that the trip was worth it and have seen significant improvement only a few months. There are two things that stand out when you meet Dr. Sam: (1) She allows you to come to her with your issues and (2) She does not treat blemishes morally. Other professionals I have met in the past are quick to point out flaws (existing and otherwise) so that they can upsell treatments and luxury products. Dr. Sam is different, she lets you suggest what you think is wrong, so you don't get a complex about yourself and feel pressured to get expensive treatments. And when you do point out what you think is wrong, she does an excellent job of explaining that blemishes are just the product of biology rather than a moral failing. There is no shaming, the way a dentist will shame a patient about flossing, some blemishes are just inevitable. Her kindness is valuable and unfortunately rare. But I know that I can trust her with whatever issues I bring up, and have even recommended my family to AA. The office can fit maybe three people comfortably, which might be important to keep in mind when booking an appointment. And most importantly she validates parking which is HUGE for Pasadena. read more

I came in for vitamin injections. Dr. Sam explained the benefits of vitamin injections and made sure I was a good candidate. She did not try to sell me a bunch of things I had no interest in but was very informative and educational. I do get a little nervous about injections, but she talked me through it and before I knew it, she was finished. I could not believe it but it did NOT hurt at all! She has such a light touch. I have been back every week and have definitely noticed an increase in my energy level. read more

I'm really glad I found Ananya Aesthetics. Been suffering from Cystic acne and was in need of the pimple shot for my chin. I called on a Sunday and thankfully I was able to be seen and treated. I will definitely be going back when I have flare ups and also looking to be seen for other services. read more
