    I am so sad about my experience. I've suffered with acne scarring for quite some time and have had occasional breakouts. I booked an appointment for microneedling back in January and had the worst breakouts imaginable. I've never had acne to this degree and it hurt my skin so bad. They said it was my skin purging and it will pass. It's now April and I'm still dealing with terrible acne. They offered for me to come back in for LDM facial to help but I had to pay $$ for this service and it didn't do anything to help my skin. It's really unfortunate since the staff are kind people but their equipment must be dirty in someway. Now dealing with the aftermath with my wedding coming up. pt 2. in response to your comment. i did not come back for multiple facials and the one time i did was after you offered me a treatment to help calm my skin, which i paid for and it was not helpful. i paid for a microneedling package before my first treatment and after my experience i didn't want to come back so you refunded me the remaining treatments. the spa is now texting me and being disrespectful to me. they are showing aggressive behavior and i'm so shocked to be spoken this way after my previous civil conversations with this spa.

    Came in today for a hydra-dermabrasion facial and was taken in by Jenna. She was so sweet and walked me through every step. This facial is meant to smooth, brighten and hydrate your skin. As soon as she finished I could see how bright my face was! I appreciated the time she took to clear my black heads and even remove a pimple I had. The lymphatic massage was a new experience for me and it made me feel less swollen. Thank you to all the staff at Irene's skintopia.

    Tried Irene's Skintopia after seeing all the glowing reviews on Tiktok. Booking was not too bad but I found that I had to book 2 months out. You are also required to put down a $50 deposit to secure your appointment. This location has plenty of parking which I appreciate, especially in LA. The place itself is nice but not super luxurious, which I didn't mind especially for the price of the facial. You are asked to change and remove your jewelry when they start your facial. I decided to get the brightening cryo ice zet + triple vitamin facial. It was $175 + tip. I felt like I got my moneys worth and everything felt amazing! They did so many things during my facial such as lymphatic massage, led lights, extractions and more. I had a bad experience with a facial once where they broke me out but I am very happy with my experience here and my face felt glowy and nice afterwards! Yumi who was the one doing my facial was super nice and told me my skin looked amazing already, which was extremely sweet! I don't think I noticed too much of a difference the week after with my face but I'm sure I just need to be consistent with my treatments and it's still a nice self care treat! I would highly recommend this place! They also have a package that they recommended afterwards. It comes with different types of facials to try out and I would definitely consider coming back!

    Results after just 6 months!

    I have been going to Irene's Skintopia and seeing Bonnie since September 2024. I had been struggling with acne for years and couldn't get it under control. I tried so many treatments, products, and other estheticians but after working with Bonnie I have seen significant improvements in my skin. She has been so knowledgeable and educating me on the inflammation/acne cycle I was in. I know that going for my monthly facial with her has made all the difference. Consistency has been key. I did an Acne facial package and am currently doing the Arzen facial package now. I'm so grateful to Bonnie! I used to feel hopeless and to the point of giving up on my skin and how bad my acne had gotten. I always had to cover up with lots of makeup and felt defeated. Now I feel like myself again and can go out with just some tinted sunscreen or BB/CC cream and feel confident! I'm so happy with my results and can't thank Bonnie enough. I've also had the pleasure of meeting Irene, herself, and she has been so sweet and encouraging too. I can't recommend Irene's Skintopia enough!

    I'm so happy to share that my skin is finally recovered after religiously following Ellie's recommended skincare routine and products. I posted a review after my first visit, and although I could immediately see the benefits after the first session, the positive effects continued to grow with time. Context: I had combo skin, and my skin barrier was severely damaged after a winter trip to Japan where I was not used to the cold, windy climate. My forehead became filled with closed comedones, and I had no idea how to clear them. Upon coming back home to the states, I tried multiple dermatologists, but the extractions were not done properly and repeated infections continue to occur. Then I came across Irene's place, and decided to give it a shot. My acne was scabbing at that point but still infected, but immediately after the visit the inflammation reduced and within 1 month, all the blemishes had healed. After 2 months of visits and following the skincare routine, all my acne and scars have faded and my pores have gotten smaller and tighter. My skin has a healthy, glowing complexion and the color has started to come back to my once dull cheeks! Coming here has really changed my skin for the better :') they really know what they're doing and have the best machines, similar to what I experienced in Korea.

    Look at these wands and look at NuDerma high frequency wands

    I was hesitant to write a review, but decided I should for anyone out there being talked into spending more than you should or being sold a facial that doesn't exist. I went to Irene's Skintopia on 3/20 and my facial was overall ok. I came here because of the high reviews on yelp, but I kind of regret spending so much money for this acne facial when they're usually $40-$50 less anywhere else. I did the intensive acne facial and Ellie was my esthetician. I felt kind of uncomfortable from the beginning because Ellie suggested a "new" kind of facial they have called the "plasma facial". It costs $200 vs my intensive acne facial that was $165. She said it would really help my skin and kill the acne causing bacteria. She then said she would use another machine, I can't remember, to then bring water to the surface. I asked if it was invasive and she said it wasn't. She told me it would just feel like light zapping on the skin. Luckily, I'm hesitant to try new things without research so i asked if she could show me the machine, when she showed me the "plasma" machine and it was literally a high frequency wand with a black handle. She said "I know it looks like high frequency but it's not!" I still said no and I told her I would do research and then maybe do it some other day. I was so confused because the only "plasma" facials I've heard are either use blood or are the plasma pen. After the facial, I googled EVERYWHERE online for "plasma facial" or "plasma facial looks like high frequency" and NOTHING comes up except for PRP vampire facials. They don't even have this facial listed on their website. After reflecting, I'm kind of convinced that the facial she was offering was a scam. $40 more for high frequency? Even when she described what it would feel like, she described the sensation of high frequency -- "a light zapping" I attached a picture of my high frequency wand at home and it looks EXACTLY like what she showed me. The only difference is the black handle. Later during the facial, I asked her what skin scaling was since it's mentioned on the website and she said oh it's the machine I did at the beginning (she didn't do a machine) and when I was confused, she was like "Oh sorry, I forgot! It doesn't do anything anyways ahhaha." That left me feeling even more uncomfortable. So do they list things for the intensive active facial as a scam? I also told Ellie that I was going to get a chemical peel a week after my facial and at the beginning she said that was a great idea, but by the end of the facial she was like "You should cancel your chemical peel and come back here in two weeks instead." I don't know, the whole facial ended up leaving me uncomfortable. Even a sulfur product they tried to sell me was 10-15$ more expensive than what is listed online. I feel like this spa got good reviews on yelp and then trended on tiktok and now people are willing to spend almost $200 thinking that an acne facial will be worth it when they are listed cheaper online with the same steps (LED, high frequency, mask, extractions...etc). I say the facial was ok because she did do a good job with extractions but I won't be coming back. ***edit: they had the photo I posted of my high frequency wand at home removed. I'll attach pictures of the explanation they sent me about the service that their business now offers for "plasma" if you look at the explanation and the wands shown it looks exactly like the NuDerma neon and argon gas high frequency wands. If you Google what high frequency does, it does exactly what they claim their "plasma" facial does .

I unfortunately only took a picture right after the incident. After that the eyelash fell out & only grew back several months after (with intense care) but I didn't take any photos during that time.
