Here some facial products I like. Expensive but worth a try. If your looking to start out and learn how to start out by taking care of your face can start here.

I've been debating getting a facial now for awhile and I finally bit the bullet and made an appointment with some friends. We each had the hydrafacial at the facial bar and it was great! If you check in on yelp you can also get a free enhancement! The girls were really friendly and it was a relaxing experience! My skin feels great. My friend and I enjoyed it so much we actually bought the 3 pack so we can come back. The location is in ocean ranch in between Panda Express and pier one. Parking was easy on Sunday afternoon. I am definitely looking forward to coming back and think Facialworks will become a regular stop for me.

Our skin has never looked better feat. the Liquid Moisture we bought!!

I had never been to FacialWorks before, but when I booked my appointment I was thoroughly excited the entire week due to the fact that they have oxygenated facials...uhm YES!! It was a little hard to find, I parked on the Cineopolis side and had to walk through to the back side of the plaza. It's between Panda Express and Pier 1! As soon as I walked in I noticed how SPOTLESS the place was. It was so clean and welcoming, the products were lined perfectly on the shelves (which is the kind of thing I notice being the manager of a beauty supply store) and the shelves themselves were clean. Nothing seemed out of place or dirty, and they had clearly labeled containers for clean implements and dirty implements/trash (also something I notice being a cosmetologist). Ellie was my esthetician for my bar facial! I got the HydraWorks (for dry or "lack luster" skin) and my husband got the ClearWorks (for acne prone skin). She has the best hands when she's doing her thing, strong but gentle at the same time. She was very knowledgeable about all the products FacialWorks offers and spent time going into detail about the specific ones she was using on me, what ingredients are in them and what they would do for my skin! She was always asking me if the pressure she was using was okay and if I needed a blanket during the cooling globes and oxygen infusion since it gets pretty cold (WHICH BTW THE COOLING GLOBES ARE SO AWESOME IT MADE ME GIGGLE). FacialWorks is kind of like a blow dry bar but for facials (awesome!) where you sit in reclining chairs and get your service done. It's totally different than anything I've ever experienced in the world of facials bc it's more talkative and social, there's TV's and more peppy music than the average spa music and quiet dark environment (and I much prefer this kind of service now that I've received it!!) They have different facials to suit all types of skin which they will go over in a consultation to determine which one you need. They also have a private room for more in depth facials that are more one on one if you're not comfortable with the "blow dry bar" type thing. I ended up buying the Liquid Moisture (which is pure hyaluronic acid; it absorbs 1000x it's weight from moisture in the atmosphere) since Ellie used it on me during my facial and I fell in love with it! I'll for sure be back for more facials and to also buy the cleanser from the ClearWorks line for my hubby!! Overall my experience was top notch, 10/10, 5 stars, fantabulously amazing!!! I highly recommended FacialWorks as a whole and definitely recommend you booking with Ellie as she's amazing and treats all of her clients like they're the most important people in the world!

No show of staff beyond my appointment time.

I had an appointment at 9:00 am and when I showed up, no one was there. I waited 25 extra minutes beyond my appointment and still no one ever showed or opened the Dana Point location. No phone call or follow up email thus far. I wasted my time and gas, so I'd not understand these positive reviews at all, per my experience.

I love Seaside Skin Care. I went in for a general consultation recently with MaryEllen Blake and…read moreshe was phenomenal. Extremely professional and knowledgeable. I came in with a few specific skin concerns and also wanting to just improve my overall appearance. She addressed each one with such kindness and patience. She took her time talking to me and answering my questions. I ended up deciding to move forward with all of the treatments she recommended for me and I couldn't be happier with the results so far!! Thanks to MaryEllen it has been a seamless experience and I can't wait for my future treatments with her. I also had a hydra facial recently with Nikki Bruce and absolutely loved it. I was totally glowing afterwards. She knew exactly what my skin needed. I asked if she could set me up with a whole new skincare routine with products and she customized an entire plan for me. I finally feel back on track with taking care of my skin and appearance. Thank you Nikki!! My skin is already looking so much better and I've only had a few appointments at Seaside Skin Care so far. I'm excited for this journey and am so glad to have found Seaside Skin Care. I plan to be a client for many many years to come. The front desk staff is very helpful too. I feel like they really deserve a special shout-out because it honestly makes such a difference! They are kind and sweet and helpful. I never feel like they're trying to sell me something or pressure me into buying anything. They're genuinely kind and helpful.

I'm so glad I found this medical spa! Dr. Maleki is warm, engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and…read moregenuinely great at what he does. But what I appreciate most is his honesty. I found him through a shout out on social media by a childhood friend. She looked like she'd had work done but it looked good, and when I learned that Dr. Maleki was the one doing her treatments, I decided to make an appointment. When I arrived, I asked him to be completely direct with me. I knew my facial structure had changed over the years, but I couldn't pinpoint exactly what was different. I even brought photos of myself from 15 and 25 years ago and told him, "I want to look like this again!" He walked me through what he believed would help, including procedures he doesn't even perform himself (and told me who to go to for those). I used my fingers to mimic the changes he was describing, and I could immediately see what he meant. He was absolutely right! My lip lift and eyebrow lift is next if I hit the lottery (I'm not going to lie, these treatments are very expensive and will break the bank for the average woman). One thing I learned was that my lower jaw had widened due to bruxism (teeth grinding and clenching). Dr. Maleki used Botox in my masseter muscles to help slim my jawline and restore more of the heart-shaped contour and angle of my lower face. As someone who did the PR for Botox when it first came out, I especially enjoyed learning more about the product and hearing his insights, particularly given his experience as Allergan's Medical Director. I had used it on other parts of my face to prevent wrinkles, but I didn't know that it could be used for this. I could feel myself grinding my teeth when I would wake up, and now that I'm wearing Invisalign, I honestly thought it would break. I couldn't believe how relaxed my jaw was from the first night after my treatment. My face feels calm again. He also added a little filler to my upper cheekbones, which I'd done in my 30s and I love the result! The best part? His office is only five minutes from my home. Finding someone so talented, honest, and knowledgeable right in my own neighborhood was a slam dunk. I highly recommend Dr. Maleki to anyone considering aesthetic treatments. He takes the time to understand your goals, explains what he sees, and gives you his honest professional opinion rather than simply telling you what you want to hear. And he's just a great guy overall! His front desk manager is a sweetheart too. Photo note: The photo with the visor is before treatment, and the one with my hair up is after. The others are my younger photos that I had shown him. Dr. Maleki says the results should continue to improve over the coming weeks, so I'm looking forward to seeing the final outcome!

Lovely doctor and lovely results! He was so friendly and made me feel very comfortable.read more

My mom recently passed away, and one of the last things I needed to take care of was her OrangeTwist account. I called the San Juan location, explained that my mother had passed away, and asked what could be done with her balance. The receptionist was unsure but told me the manager, Allison, would contact me. I completely understood this was an unusual situation and had no expectation it would be resolved instantly. Allison eventually emailed me, confirmed the balance was over $1,200, and told me the credit could be transferred to my account. I agreed and explained that I now live in Texas, asking if I could use the credit at an OrangeTwist near me. I even shared how much my mom loved going to OrangeTwist San Juan. Then she completely disappeared. I followed up on September 13 and again on September 18. Three emails over two weeks. No response. I was incredibly patient because this was not something I wanted to spend my time fighting about while grieving my mom. I simply assumed someone would eventually get back to me. I was too nice. When I finally called, Allison was unavailable and I was told someone would call me back. While explaining the situation, I heard another employee say, "I'll talk to her." I appreciated her willingness to speak with me, but what she told me directly contradicted what Allison had previously told me in writing. I was told the credit could NOT be transferred and that I would have to return to that specific location to use it because they "know the situation." I was also given another workaround that made absolutely no sense and left me uncomfortable with the entire situation. At that point, I simply requested the funds be returned. I was told Allison would call me, but was given no timeline or answers. I was also told she had been out sick. I completely understand people getting sick, but two weeks with no response and no one else at the location taking ownership of a grieving customer's emails? That is unacceptable. Thankfully, I eventually contacted corporate, and the difference was night and day. Corporate responded quickly, was compassionate and apologetic, and resolved everything immediately. They transferred the funds to my personal OrangeTwist account so I can use them at a location near me. The manager of the Texas location even personally called to apologize and make things right. That is what customer service should look like. I genuinely appreciate corporate and the Texas manager for ultimately taking care of me. But it should never have taken weeks, multiple unanswered emails, phone calls, conflicting information, and an escalation to corporate to accomplish something the San Juan manager had already told me she could do. What makes this especially upsetting is that this wasn't just a routine customer-service issue. This involved my mother who had just passed away. I was trying to wrap up one of the last remaining pieces of her affairs. I wasn't being demanding or impatient. I gave them plenty of time and grace. I simply needed someone to communicate with me. My mom supported this business for nearly a decade, and knowing how much she loved going to OrangeTwist makes the lack of communication and compassion even more disappointing. Sometimes customer service is about more than policies and procedures. It's about recognizing there is a human being on the other side of the email. This could have been resolved with one email. Instead, I had to repeatedly follow up, explain my mother's passing multiple times, receive conflicting information, and ultimately escalate to corporate. I wasn't initially going to leave a review, but I feel this experience deserves to be acknowledged. This goes beyond a simple customer-service mistake. Very disappointing, to say the least. I hope the San Juan Capistrano location learns from this experience.

I was very clear that I wanted to have my acne cleared before starting the treatments and she explicitly said that she is confident that they can treat the scarring with where my acne was at. I also told her that I was preparing for my upcoming wedding. She performed 2 rounds of v beam and fraxel laser on me. The first session went fine. After the second session I began developing large cystic bumps all over my face exactly 2 days after treatment. The acne has persisted ever since the treatment and it has been a full month. I am reading now that the most recent data is showing that fraxel should not be performed on active hormonal acne as it can worsen it... There were many red flags with this provider along the way; one time she came in the room and asked me how my spirolactone was going, which was a medication that I was not taking... maybe she was confusing me with another patient, but for such expensive treatments, you would expect your doctor to at least know what they prescribed to you. If you have hormonal acne DO NOT GO TO DR DARJI. She is not competent in hormonal acne treatment. I deeply wish I had left my skin alone, it was in such a better place before going to OC Derm and I wasted $5,000 between the treatments and the products she recommended. The most upsetting experience I have ever had with a provider. I will say, her assistant, Celeste, is an absolute rockstar and an amazing and very kind person to work with. The office manager was not; she was unfriendly and honestly a bit rude.

I actually started avoiding going out as much because you could really see the dry skin which was accentuated by my makeup.

I tried so many skin care lines and nothing seemed to help. My sister in law told me about HD Beauty and I thought I would give it a try before calling my dermatologist. I am so thankful for and really enjoyed my experience with Melanie at HD Beauty Skincare Boutique. She offered me a custom regimen from the HD Beauty Clinical Skincare. She even gave me a guide with which products to use and at what time(s) of day to use them. I stepped away from all the other skin care products I usually use so I would be able to tell if there was a difference. I experienced definite results with HD Beauty products. These products are so light and smooth and have a very pleasant aroma. I also love that there are no sulfates! I used it with the cleansing cloth and my makeup came off effortlessly every time leaving my face feeling soothed and refreshed. My skin loves this product and I love using it. I feel like I am pampering myself every time I use it. I am not one who ever likes to wash and prep my face. I always do it because you're supposed to. But with this product I enjoy taking care of my skin. It helps me relax before bed and I am excited to wash my face in the morning and get ready to embrace the day. I have noticed overall smaller lines and less acne and redness. I bring it down my neck and onto my sun damaged chest area those wrinkles are less visible too.
