This is a long overdue review for Allie. I've been going to Allie for over 6 years starting in SF…read more I've had issues with rosacea and sensitive skin since turning 30 (stupid hormones!) and if it weren't for Allie, I'd still be suffering from red, itchy, angry skin. Allie is knowledgeable on all products and customizes my facials every time based on what my skin condition is at the moment. Because of her, I have had people comment on how good the condition of my skin, even other dermatologists and skincare professionals! I appreciate the fact that she only recommends the products I need and will tell me honestly if something will not be effective or worth my money. She never upsells. She truly cares that her clients have the best skin and results. I've even introduced my mother (who is very picky about who touches her face) to Allie's services and after her first facial vowed her undying loyalty to Allie. I've seen my mom's skin improve 100 fold. Her skin glows, sun spots have minimized and she looks years younger. All thanks to Allie. Allie opened her own practice and even though it's a far drive, it's a testament to her professionalism and expertise that many of her clients, including me, are willing to make the trek to see her. Thank you Allie for keeping me feeling forever young (or at least not looking as haggard as I feel inside after caring for two young ones every day)!

I originally came in…read morejust to add some volume to my cheeks and the injector convinced me that I needed more structure that will "lift" my face more. They upsold me 2 syringes of juvederm and prp under eyes for a whopping $2,000. All of this was such a waste because my face just looks like a round fat pillowy face and when I look at my before pictures I looked so much younger with nice cheek bone structure. The difference is saddening. Five months later and I have now decided it will not settle anymore and look any better and that I've come to reality that this was a big mistake. Do not trust them to enhance your beauty. They will ruin your looks so that they can make an extra buck. I thought I could trust them because of the good reviews but this was clearly not the case.

I had a competent surgeon perform facial surgery on me several years ago, and although it looked…read moregreat for about 5 years, 5 years and tens of thousands of dollars out of pocket is not a lot of bang for the buck. So recently when I decided on rhinoplasty and various facial nips and tucks, I did a considerable amount of research. I learned that despite being a common procedure, rhinoplasty is incredibly complex. Although any plastic surgeon might attempt it, it soon became clear to me that only a double board certified facial plastic surgeon has the education to perform a reliable rhinoplasty, deep plane facelift, lip lift, or really most any facial procedure.  Narrowing my search to SF Bay Area double board certified plastic surgeons, I started reading reviews and comparing CVs. I checked state board records, Reddit, Yelp, Google Reviews, HealthGrades, etc etc.  Of all the CVs I examined, Dr. Matthew Tamplen's was the most impressive by a large margin. From his GPA and his awards to his prestigious fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery, Dr. Tamplen's background was not just impeccable, it reflected an unmatched depth of training and talent. Reading his online reviews further impressed me.  I did consult with several Bay Area facial plastic surgeons, and found all but one to be knowledgeable. Upon meeting Dr. Tamplen, I found him relaxed, confident, and professional but still congenial.  I settled on him to do my procedures and couldn't be happier.  Every procedure Dr. Tamplen did was simply perfect.  I'm not sure what more I can say about the results. His education and experience are reflected in my outcome.  Scars are minimal, and I look naturally refreshed. My nose is refined and subtly shaped. Despite my husband's oft repeated fears, it's not "a Michael Jackson look," and even he is impressed.  The intensive research really paid off. I found the best double board certified facial plastic surgeon in the bay area, and probably the country.  I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Tamplen.

In July of 2022 at age 65 I retired and my entire life I wanted a beautiful straight, symmetrical…read morenostrils, less bulbose tip of my nose and a less wide nose. First Time: After three consults with different surgeons in the Scottsdale, Az area I chose Dr. Tamplen. Paid him his 14k for the Rhino. He and his team were great, but the first Rhino was very botched. Not straight, crooked column, assymetrical wierd nostrils. Second try: To try and fix the my crooked nose he performed an "in the office" alar procedure to try to make my nose straight. Nose was still messed up looking. Third Try: Dr. Tamplen actually took me back in to surgery of where I was excited to think maybe he would take all avenues that many cosmetic surgeons take to make a nose straight. There are many techniques a surgeon can do to construct a straight symmetrical nose. Again, to my sadness, my nose was still crooked. I still looked deformed. Fourth Try: In February 2026 I scheduled the fourth time, but cancelled and rescheduled for April 3, 2026. I spent money to fly to AZ waiting for the day to come. About a few days before the procedure, an office lady called me and told me I needed to pay $ 2,500 for the surgery time. I was so surprised because all along all Dr. Tamplen and his staff would say " all we want you to be happy with the outcome so we will do whatever it takes." I was very upset about this because my sister had her facelift revised by Dr. Tamplen, for free of charge. The office lady said, well we have done a lot for you and your sister. I told her well I am a different patient and why can't he perform my revision free? I got so upset that I said to forget it and never tried a fourth time. You will see in the pictures how crooked and messed up my nose it. I don't even want to look at a person straight on. My advice is to ask the surgeon what he is actually go to to perform a Rhinoplasty. Ask if he is going to take part of the rib, or other grafts to do a perfect job. I always wonder how do accident victims get their faces fixed so nicely after scars and more? He kept blaming my crooked nose on a scar below my nostril. My nose looked better before I had Rhinoplasty. Also just because a surgeon is top notch in their class does not mean they have "artistic" ability. If anyone knows of a great Rhinoplasty surgeon, email me at juli1956@yahoo.com. I am 70 now but still would like a straight narrow, symmetrical nose for my last 10-20 years of life. I picked the wrong surgeon, although he was very kind but I think he did the minimum when performing procedures, so find out first exactly what they are going to use and do to make it right. Thank you.

I reached out to Dr. Walker due to my acne. It's been something I've been battling with since I was an adolescent and I was dealing with a flare up. Dr. Walker's office was great in setting up appointments for me. In addition, it was great that she handled telemedicine so I could take the meetings right from my home. She prescribed the right Rx treatment for me. And honestly, as a doctor who is a person of color and the AAPI community, it felt really great that she understood my needs and had expertise on the impacts of the treatment to my skin. I felt seen! I don't want to discount the other negative reviews but this is certainly not the experience that I've had.

The lesson we learned from all of this is that the hydrafacial is superior to other facials and allows for better extractions. Victoria's hydrafacial skills are fantastic.

With Victoria's advice, my husband will switch to a different brand of sunscreen, one that is mineral-based which will be easier on his pores.

I would not recommend this place for Botox. I started going here for facials last year and they are…read moregreat! Unfortunately, I got Botox and it caused me to have Ptosis (severe lazy eye). I am on week 3 of this and my Doctor said it will most likely last 1-2 months! I have cancelled so many events because I don't feel comfortable being around people looking like this. I also do most of my work on Zoom so this has affected my job (again, I don't feel comfortable being on camera). I contacted the place and even though they were nice about it, they would not refund my money. I know it is a risk anytime that you do injectables but to do this to a customer and then charge them $730 for it, doesn't sit right with me. Who cares if I signed something, you took $ for a service and then botched my face for most of my summer. Unacceptable. DO NOT GET BOTOX HERE!

She is very conscientious about the comfort of her clients and explains everything very thoroughly. She asks really good questions, and I always feel like a very special guest when I am with her. I feel very lucky to have found Rhea, and I am very happy with the results I have received from her facials. I highly recommend her.
