I went in for filler for my very first time having this done and it looked awful! Lumpy and uneven. Definitely would not recommend.

Joining Evolutions Medical & Day Spa's exclusive monthly membership, HOPE -- Hormone Optimization…read moreand Personal Empowerment, has been truly life-changing. At 49, my perimenopause symptoms arrived suddenly and with intensity. I was struggling with significant brain fog, insomnia, and mood swings, and felt completely disconnected from my own body. When a friend recommended the HOPE program with Nurse Practitioner Rachael Wojcik, FNP-C, I immediately recognized the value of a comprehensive, personalized approach to hormone optimization. I've now been under Rachael's thoughtful care for over a year, and her ongoing guidance has been exceptional. Rachael is a deeply committed advocate for women's hormone health supporting whole-body wellness. She has guided me through hormone balancing, metabolic support, preventive screenings, and digestive health, always with remarkable insight and attention to detail. Her kind, patient approach, careful listening, and ability to address new challenges as I transitioned from perimenopause to menopause have made all the difference as I've navigated this complex hormonal rollercoaster. HRT has provided profound relief from my symptoms, and I am incredibly grateful to have had such a knowledgeable and compassionate partner supporting me every step of the way. Rachael has helped restore balance, confidence, and a sense of harmony in my health that I didn't think was possible again. Forever grateful!

I am so glad I found Evolutions Medical Spa, as I was nervous researching where to go for my first…read moremedical spa experience. I really wanted to find someone who would listen to my concerns/desires for upping my self-care, but that would be honest with me about what would and wouldn't be best on me, be worth the money or not, and be realistic about what my expectations should be. I love suggestions, learning, and guidance with no pressure. All of the options can be overwhelming! My consultation was so informative and helpful, I learned so much about the service I was wanting done, as well as about my own face and skin. Lizzy was so warm, caring, fun, and made me feel beautiful while listening to my desires for enhancing my routine. I can't wait to be back for my recheck! Rachael who I did my screening with was also so sweet and comforting to my nerves! The VIP membership is a great deal, as well as the different apps they will work with for specific service point rewards. Everyone I have spoken to at the front desk and on the phone are kind and helpful. So refreshing to some experiences with doctor's offices I've had in the past years!

I knew I wanted to do something to my eye area to look more youthful after 25 years of Botox in my…read moreforehead. Funny how things align. Long story short, my mom and I (who has since passed away) were shopping at the cute makeup store in Montecito next to Jeannine's. A woman there was helping us, and my mom, who was 86 at the time, told her she had beautiful skin and lips and asked if she saw someone. She smiled, handed my mom Dr. Yegiyants' business card, and that was that. Fast forward about six months. My injector, Melissa (who had been doing my Botox and filler for years), decided to join Dr. Yegiyants' office. I couldn't believe it! I made an appointment for my Botox and was able to spend a few minutes with Dr. Yegiyants. I went in thinking I needed skin removed from my upper eyelids. She walked in wearing the chicest blue leather dress, gently placed her finger just above my eyebrow, lifted it slightly, and said something like, "All you need is this." Then she added, "Not a surprised look..." I was sold. I didn't need to hear anything else except, "When can we schedule it?" About a month later, I had my brow lift. I honestly didn't do much research because I believe that when things align like this, they're meant to be. On the day of surgery, I was dropped off feeling completely at ease. From the moment I walked in, the office felt like family. Everyone there is genuinely kind, warm, and caring. I even had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Yegiyants' husband, who also works in the office. The surgical suite is immaculate, private, and welcoming. Once I was in my cozy pre-op outfit, the nurses kept me laughing and completely entertained. I wasn't nervous for a second. Before surgery, Dr. Yegiyants came in, carefully looked me over, and we reviewed the plan one more time. It was such a comforting moment. She looked like an astronaut in all of her surgical gear, and somehow that made me smile. I went into surgery with a forehead that had always felt heavy. I came out looking lighter, happier, and more feminine--while still looking like myself. I saw Dr. Yegiyants the very next day and returned for several follow-up visits. Everything healed beautifully, and I always felt completely cared for. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Yegiyants and her entire team. They are exceptionally professional, compassionate, and talented. If you're wondering whether you should do it, my answer is yes. You'll probably ask yourself why you waited so long. She takes incredible care of her patients from beginning to end, and I couldn't be happier with my experience.

A Shoutout to My Favorite Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Sara Yegiyants!…read more I wanted to take a moment to give a special shoutout to my favorite plastic surgeon, Dr. Sara Yegiyants in Santa Barbara! I have been seeing Dr. Yegiyants since 2016, when I first went to her for a breast revision, and most recently, I had my nose done last year. I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about her. She is incredibly talented, skilled, and meticulous. I absolutely love that she is such a perfectionist and pays attention to every little detail. Her precision and artistry are truly one of a kind! Whenever someone asks me in Montecito or at the Polo grounds who my plastic surgeon is, I never hesitate to recommend Dr. Yegiyants. I have complete confidence in her work, and I couldn't be happier with my experience. I also have to give a special shoutout to her amazing nurse, Samira Spantman, who is just as wonderful! I absolutely love the Moxi treatments and have now done six of them. They are totally worth it! From the moment you walk into the office, you know you are in great hands. The entire team is amazing, and I cannot speak highly enough about this practice. If you're looking for exceptional care, incredible attention to detail, and a team that truly takes pride in what they do, Dr. Yegiyants and her staff are absolutely worth a visit! Thank you, Dr. Yegiyants and Samira, for always taking such wonderful care of me! I couldn't recommend you more!

I had been dealing with psoriasis undiagnosed for my entire life. Several times it was misdiagnosed…read moreand I was told I was being dramatic. Because of this, I felt extremely embarrassed and insecure about my feet, scalp, and hands for my entire adult life (literally never even wore sandals to the beach). When I went to see Dr.Grossman, I did not expect to experience anything different, but instead I was met with the utmost professionalism and kindness. Not only did she diagnose me immediately, but she patiently answered my many questions and offered real tangible solutions. In 3 weeks I have seen massive changes and this morning Dr.Grossman told me that now, after years, my psoriasis is in remission. This afternoon I wore sandals to the beach for the first time in 10 years and I could not be more happy. A tremendous thank you to the whole team and I absolutely recommend Cal Dermatology.

Dr. Grossman and her team are great! I first visited to have a mysterious lesion evaluated. I was…read moreable to get an appointment for only a couple of days after I called, which is so great when you're stressing about something. Dr. Grossman put my mind at ease and gracefully biopsied it (I didn't even feel the sting of lidocaine), with the benign results back in about 48 hours. She also recommended I come back for a skin cancer screening given my age (mid-30s) and childhood spent in the south. I was nervous, but she was extremely thorough and reassuring, taking the time to explain my moles and spots. After the screening, she sat with me for about ten minutes going over even my smallest skin concerns (why do my lips break out after I kiss my cat? etc.) and recommending products to build a healthy skincare regimen. Dr. G doesn't rush through appointments and seems eager to make a personal connection with you. She's not happy until you're satisfied with your skin. Also, the office staff is great and I've never waited for more than five minutes or so. I highly recommend Cal Dermatology!
