Jasmine Yun, MD - Before & right after Sofwave, with time stamps

In 2025, Dr. Jasmine Yun gave me the most detailed full body skin cancer screening I have ever had…read more I was referred to her by my general practitioner at UCLA who I love & respect, so I knew she would be great. Dr. Yun gave me really helpful info on anti aging skin products and IPL to help my rosacea. Fast forward to 2026; the office started offering Sofwave treatments for collagen building & skin tightening. I stopped getting filler several years ago, but I am always interested in ways to combat age related collagen loss. After a really detailed consultation with PA Charlotte, I scheduled a Sofwave session with her. I requested numbing on all the areas to be treated, so l arrived in time to sit with the cream on for 30-ish minutes. Charlotte was SO detailed & patient, she mapped all the areas (brows, cheeks, jaw, submentum) with marker & showed me how she planned to lift areas. She gave me a tube that blew cold air to aim at the areas while she used the Sofwave wand. And she checked in with me throughout the treatment to make sure I was comfortable. 95% of the treatment was so painless, I could have fallen asleep! The 5% of time that I felt anything, at the very edges of my jaw & on one spot on my brows, it felt like quick stinging sensations - but way less than past laser hair removal. Still, numbing is the way to go imo haha. I had no swelling afterwards & only a little redness; I felt totally presentable to be out in public. As I drove home, I telt like my face was tighter already - but I also was still numb, so I wasn't sure if it was just my imagination. I had taken my own selfies before I headed to the office, so l took directly after selfies when I got home. I was super happy to see that I could see immediate results when I stitched my pics side by side! I shared my before & after pics with my friends & they could totally tell too. I look refreshed, for sure. And full results don't even happen for 4-6 months, because collagen will be rebuilding during that time. I don't know if my immediately noticeable results are typical, but l am now a big believer in Sofwave! I've been telling my friends about it - and about Charlotte! I have a note to myself to schedule a follow up with her in 4 months, to see if I want another session or just come back for annual maintenance. I highly recommend Dr. Yun & PA Charlotte! I'll be back for an IPL soon too!

I've been seeing Dr. Yun for many years now and my skin and I are eternally grateful. Every visit…read morefeels like a reunion with someone who not only knows dermatology inside and out but also genuinely cares about my results. My treatments are always comfortable, my results are consistently fantastic, and I leave feeling like my best (and brightest!) self. If you're looking for a dermatologist who delivers every single time, look no further. Dr. Yun is the real deal. Highly recommend!

Dr. Ahdout is truly a caring, kind and highly skilled dermatologist. Both her and her team are…read moreprofessional. She is confident in her work - which is a lot more than I can say for the "celebrity dermatologists" who are running their offices as mills and don't actually care to help patients. I did various treatments with Dr. Ahdout including skin needling and her work is impeccable. She is also incredibly honest. I had done PRP at another office nearby at a much higher price and Dr. Ahdout explained how she believes it doesn't do much. She noted letting the blood from skin needling sit on the skin afterwards is sufficient. She could have sold me on PRP since I had inquired about it, but she was transparent. She is a truly trustworthy professional. Dr. Ahdout is high in both mental and emotional intelligence. She also hires people who run her office professionally. She has high standards both with how she treats and takes care of patients and also how her patients are treated by her staff. Doctors hire people who are like them. Most so called healthcare professionals couldn't care less about creating a healing environment as they hire wolves like them to run their offices. Therefore, most doctor's offices are not healing to say the least. Dr. Ahdout truly cares about her patients and creating a healing environment. I highly recommend her.

I came to the office to make sure a red bump on my face was not serious. I was sold treatment for…read moremy rosacea. I underwent treatment at this office for rosacea and facial redness. Prior to treatment, I specifically explained that I could not afford to undergo multiple sessions and asked whether I would see noticeable benefit after a single treatment. I was told that I should expect to see improvement after one session. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. While some visible veins were successfully treated through cauterization, I did not experience the level of lasting improvement in my rosacea redness that I expected based on our discussion. I also had concerns about post-procedure care and communication. After my first treatment, I experienced significant redness and pus, and became worried that I might be developing an infection. It took approximately four days before someone from the office meaningfully addressed my concerns, which added a great deal of stress during the healing process. After I later expressed dissatisfaction with my results, the provider did offer a second treatment at no additional charge which I appreciated. She used no numbing cream even though I explained that I have a low tolerance for pain! However, even after completing treatment and allowing time for healing, I still did not feel the overall cosmetic outcome justified the cost for me personally. Another concern was that no true baseline "before" photos were taken prior to treatment. The only comparison image retained appears to have been taken after the first procedure, while my skin was still experiencing treatment-related redness and inflammation. When I requested consideration of a refund or partial refund, I was told that results are not guaranteed. I also found it frustrating that the office preferred discussing concerns by phone rather than communicating in writing and were very defensive and refused to even meet in the middle. They said because I don't use other rosacea treatments that's why their work failed! I understand cosmetic treatments can vary from person to person, and I appreciate that an effort was made to address my concerns. I simply believe future patients should clearly discuss expectations, number of likely treatments needed, follow-up responsiveness, and refund policies before proceeding. I do not recommend at all. I'm happy to send pictures if you message me.

My…read moredoctor, Dr. Melissa, does my Botox and the results are always natural, smooth, and exactly what I'm looking for. Fun fact -- I actually started going to her before my wedding, and let's just say... she's lasted longer than my marriage! That alone should tell you how loyal I am to her and how much I trust her work. Dr. Melissa is not only extremely skilled, but she genuinely takes the time to get to know her clients. You never feel rushed during your appointments, and she always listens to what you want while giving honest recommendations about what will look best. She offers a variety of other injectables and treatments as well, so whether you're coming in for Botox or something more, you know you're in great hands. The office is professional, clean, and the staff is always welcoming. If you're looking for someone who is talented, honest, and truly cares about her patients, I highly recommend Dr. Melissa at Honest Dermatology. I absolutely love the services and the experience every time I go.
