I have been seeing Kelly roughly every other week for the past year, and have seen massive improvements in my skin. For context, I have pretty severe cystic acne, went through one round of Accutane which helped initially, but then my acne came back with a vengeance. I had awful inflamed nodules and acne all along my neck that were painful and itchy, and it is completely smooth and clear now thanks to Kelly's skill and persistence in extracting. I also get microdermabrasion, which she recommends on weeks when my skin is looking calmer and can benefit from the extra exfoliation to get rid of dead skin and help with scarring. She also does scalp and facial massages to help you relax during the treatment which is really nice. If you have acne-prone skin that hasn't responded to typical treatments or medication from dermatologists, I wholeheartedly recommend seeing Kelly. Getting regular extractions and facials with her has made a world of difference, and I can finally see real progress in my skin that actually lasts. read more

Found Kelly on a whim while visiting in Newton and what a wonderful experience it was. I had the best facial I ever had. She took the time to assess my skin and chose the correct facial for me. I can't wait to go bank again. read more

I went to see Kelly for eyebrow waxing for the first time. She was very friendly and professional! The place was easy to find and very clean. My brows look much better after the wax! :) read more

Kelly continues to amaze me with her talent and services she offers. She inspects my skin and discusses which services would be best for me. She also makes recommendations specifically for my skin-which I appreciate very much. Her facials leave my skin looking fresh for many days. Her space is very relaxing and comfortable. I love coming here and recommend Kelly! read more

Had a great facial with Kelly! It was so relaxing and my skin felt amazing after. Can't wait for my next visit.

I found Kelly's Beauty totally by chance while scrolling through Yelp, probably when I should've been doing something productive. Her reviews were great, so I figured, why not? Luckily, she had an opening--and just like that, the skincare journey began. Kelly did not disappoint. This facial easily makes my top 10 list (yes, I have one... don't judge). My skin felt like it could finally breathe afterward--didn't even know that was a thing, but apparently, clogged pores are a silent struggle. The whole experience was relaxing, professional, and left me looking way more put-together than I felt. I'll definitely be back. My face has standards now. read more

I'm back after 5 years! Her new place is much nicer and she's gotten some new machines :) Kelly's beauty has definitely helped so much with my skin. She got rid of my acne along with some spironolactone and healed the scarring. Im now doing the hydrating facial for dry winters and I'm guessing I'll do the anti aging facials in a few years read more

I've gone to Kelly's a few times for the oxygenating treatment. My pores are normally pretty big and oily, so my acne on my chin, cheeks and nose is pretty bad. Kelly is always very attentive during the extraction process even if it's a bit painful and I have a lot of problem spots. I notice that my face looks visibly clearer a few (2-3) days after my appointment. read more

I had the most relaxing time here with Kelly. She really goes above and beyond to tend to your needs, works efficiently, and is like your most caring auntie with the familial energy she radiates! She is extremely responsive and quick to get you booked, then takes her time to ensure your skin receives the exact treatment plan it needs! I went with the collagen facial and left with my skin plump, looking like a dewy dumpling. I'm sure I blinded a few people on my walk back to the car! When she found out it was a 40-minute drive for me, she immediately informed me about her new location in Newton, knowing that it would be a much easier commute and that parking would be easy and hassle free! I'd say the only downside of the Boston studio is the expensive parking. I paid $40 for 2 hrs of parking, but maybe if you're lucky, you can find some street parking! Book with Kelly! read more

I would definitely recommend Kelly for a relaxing and personalized facial! She is the sweetest lady and very skilled at what she does -- I always know I am in great hands, and my skin always looks fabulous afterwards! read more

My experience with Kelly was amazing! She gave great recommendations for the best service to provide for my specific skin and the results proved true. She gave an experience that was both relaxing yet effective and I cannot wait to book again. read more

Loved my services Here I had a pedicure done was really lovely, and staff are great here too booked appointment for my mani Next!

I started seeing Kelly a few months ago and she has really helped clear my acne. I was going through a big breakout and she does a very thorough job of extractions and really clears out my pores. She makes you feel comfortable and I trust her to give me the best treatment for my skin! read more

Highly recommended for those looking for a high quality yet affordable facial experience! Kelly is very accommodating and provides very professional recommendations for your skin concerns. My sessions with her are very relaxing and significantly improved the condition of my acne scars after several months of treatment. This is the best choice you can find in Boston! read more

I've had one facial before and it was on a cruise - full of chemicals and made me feel like my face was going to burn off. I was hesitant to try anything again but a good friend of mine recommended Kelly's Beauty and I'm so happy she did. If you're going for a super luxurious spa experience, this is not it. Although you'll still receive a calm and soothing ambiance at Kelly's place, coming here means you want the REAL DEAL. Kelly showed me the dead skin and blackheads she cleaned off of my face and immediately after her work I've never felt my face so smooth and clean. Kelly recommended the microdermabrasion and facial which is what I did. Price is reasonable especially when compared to prices in the city at-large. It's cash only so please plan accordingly. I scheduled another facial a month out and can't wait for it. Thanks Kelly! read more

Kelly is my go-to and only esthetician that I fully trust and would return to time and time again in the entire Boston area, because sessions with her make my skin noticeably better, even after just 1-2 sessions! She's extremely knowledgeable and skilled at treating all of my skin concerns, from acne to fine lines. She starts every session by making me feel comfortable (and warm if it's cold out!) and relaxed, and she always knows just what my skin needs! She takes the time to assess my skin and always uses top of the line products and professional equipment. Some other reviews mentioned it as well, but for acne-prone skin, she's incredibly thorough with extractions (love the suction machine that helps my pores feel clean) and never rushes through a session. I always leave feeling refreshed and relaxed. Coming to Kelly's is such a treat -- she's a godsend! read more

I've been coming to Kelly for two years now and still stand by my last review. She is an amazing facialist. Her new space is warm, calming and a lot more spacious. She is very knowledgeable of all the new skincare techniques and goes to different skin care conventions to make sure she's bringing back the best for her clients. Kelly is also very warm - east to reach and very accommodating with my newborn schedule! I'm going to miss coming here so much after I move. The best thing is to get a package because you save money and honestly you will be back regularly once you come one time. read more

I've been going to Kelly's Beauty for facials for a couple of years now and I'm always happy with the results. Kelly uses different skincare modalities based on what you need so you can achieve the best results. I love how she uses the suction machine to clear out my pores and does regular extractions as well. I've had the C Sea Spa facial and the Collagen Facial and both gave excellent results. Her massage is very relaxing and thorough. She knows how to apply good pressure, gives an amazing scalp massage, plus she uses hot stones that really elevates the experience. My skin has never felt cleaner or more replenished than when I leave Kelly's! :) read more

This lowkey facial shop is difficult to find at first but it definitely is worth it! I scheduled a same day facial for me and my mom and Kelly was so easy to work with. She is the sweetest and was very straightforward in answering my questions and providing her recommendations. I got the Hydrating Facial w/ Microdermabrasion add on. The Hydrating Facial was perfect for a skin pick me up. The Microdermabrasion helped rid of my blackheads and closed my pores up. My facial took about 90 minutes and was so relaxing. While I might skip the microdermabrasion next time since it is a bit pricey, I definitely enjoyed the overall experience and would recommend this place to anybody looking for a facial! read more

Me and my friend, Coco came here to get facials in Boston, we originally wanted to book somewhere else but it was busy. We found this place and decided to try it out. We have no regrets, Kelly was so sweet and kind and very insightful on skin and how to care for it. If you're looking for a good facial, come here! The only thing was that it was a little bit hard to find, make sure to text Kelly to get proper instructions on how to get to her salon since it's on the 8th floor. read more

Honestly I had not the slightest clue what she was doing to my face for most of the session, and there were plenty of gadgets involved, so that was a little nerve-wracking at first. But one thing about Yelp reviews is that they be SPOT ON, so I trusted the process and whewww am I glad I did! I walked out looking like I had glass skin. This is a true "esthetician's facial", not the kind where they massage you with lotion & send you on your way. I'll be back and look forward to seeing what Kelly can do with my skin over time! read more

Services at Kelly's Beauty is worth every penny! Kelly is safe, kind, and incredibly welcoming. She has great attention to details (my #1 concern for someone cleaning my face) and after her microdermabrasion facials, my skins feels so smooth. Her packages are worth it, and I know every time I step into her office, I will relax and step back out refreshed. Thanks Kelly for making skin care easy and convenient! (Pro tip: if you are driving in on the weekend and can't find street parking, I have found 33 arch street garage to have the best rates.) read more

WOW where should I begin. By far this was an amazing facial with Kelly, she was very informative and wish I could continue seeing her. I made appointment last minute and she got back to me real fast. Was able to get me in after working on a time, but it was worth it. The facial massage was so good and relaxing. And the pressure behind the ears was so good Just her overall fantastic. If you are in Boston looking for a place to go this is the spot, when she was done my face felt so soft. This is cash only and you might end up adding stuff on because of the recommendation she gives but so worth it. And honestly the price is very reasonable TRUST ME, if you've had facials before then you know ;). Thank me later read more

Kelly's Beauty was amazing! Hour long facial that was customized to my skin. Service was great and space was very clean. Would definitely recommend. Gave me water before and after and recommendations for post-care. read more

Kelly takes excellent care of you from the moment you step in! She identifies problem. areas on your skin and lets you know what she's doing step-by-step. I'm usually quite wary when doing facials because of bad past experiences but I absolutely loved my facial here and will be coming back in the future! She's thorough but gentle and gives you advice on how to take better care of your skin at home. Thank you Kelly and see you next time! read more

I have been going for 3 months now and bought a package. Kelly is super nice explaining what my skin needed. Booking is very easy as I just text her when I would like to come in, and she's alway very responsive. I've always debated on where to get facials in Boston, and I'm glad I found Kelly! read more

I've been to Kelly's Beauty many times and I have to say my skin has improved so much! She's super nice and super understanding as well. Thank you so much Kelly!! read more

Kelly is both professional and personable -- she made me so relaxed for my first ever facial! Her location is cosy, clean, and comfortable and her prices are very reasonable. I will be coming back soon, and definitely recommend this spa! read more

Loved my experience here. Rly clean space and she was super thorough getting out my whiteheads. Will come back ‍

Amazing skin care salon and Kelly super kind woman. I was looking for Asian-owned skin care services in boston and Kelly knew exactly what my skin needed right as soon as she looked at it. She did extractions, steaming, face masks, and even a little bit of microdermabrasion. Within a week, my skin cleared up so so much and I will definitely see her the next time I come visit Boston. Salon is also very nice and comfortable to be in which is a definite plus. Highly recommend compared to other pricier skin care studios. read more

Booked my first facial here and the process was quick and seamless - a quick phone call then confirmation via text. You do need to put down $25 deposit via venmo to confirm appointment but this goes towards final payment. Kelly was very accommodating and nice! For my first facial, I'd say it was a pretty positive experience given I had no idea what to expect. The space is small but cozy and clean. Will see how my skin looks after the initial redness goes away. read more

My skin felt incredibly soft and smooth after Kelly's facial, massage, and micro abrasion treatment. You can count me in as a new regular. She really focuses on cleaning the skin and tightening the pores. I'm really happy with the results and will be coming back regularly. read more

Kelly is so professional and friendly. Great customer service! Upon entering the waiting room, she served me a cup of hot tea and chocolate before leaving. My skin felt so smooth after the facial. Before going in, I was a little worried about scarring/redness from extractions but Kelly was very gentle and experienced, the extractions didn't hurt at all. My skin was so clear the day after and my pores visibly smaller. The facial was super hydrating and relaxing, I even fell asleep during the face massage. I also had a huge pimple on my forehead before the facial. She put some magical antibacterial product on it and it vanished the next day! Can't wait to go back for another facial with Kelly! read more

It was very easy to book an appointment and I was able to get it for the same day, and communication was great. The place itself is very nice and the facial was helpful for my skin. Overall a very relaxing experience that I'd recommend. read more

This is my first time at Kelly's Beauty. One of my friend recommended this place to me! Right when I came in, she inspected my skin and recommended me what to get for my troubles instead of me just blindly picking. I really like this aspect as I seriously don't know what I need for my skin generally. Afterwards, we proceeded with the blackhead removals and hydration mask facial. It was amazing to say the least. She was very detailed in what she was doing but also I thoroughly enjoyed the massages she gave. I almost fell asleep! Also, I got hungry during the facial and she started giving me snacks to eat. She's so sweet overall, would come again and definitely you guys should too! read more

This review is long overdue. I moved to Los Angeles last year and still haven't found anyone as good as Kelly. In fact, I missed her so much that when I came back to Boston for two weeks in February, I saw her not once, but twice! During the first visit, we joked that my face needed a good "spring cleaning," and she did NOT disappoint - she was super thorough about cleaning my clogged pores, and we did a diamond peel/microdermabrasion and an eye treatment, along with her always fabulous face massage, and a soothing mask to finish. She took good care to clean between appointments, so I didn't feel nervous about COVID, and she wore a mask the whole time. Words cannot express how much she has done for my face over the past 7-8ish(?) years. I am already thinking about my next trip back to Boston, and she will likely be my first phone call! THANK YOU, KELLY!!!!!! read more

Kelly was very nice and accommodating. It was my first microdermabrasion and I had great results. My face was clear and clean. She is very popular, I would recommend making an appointment ahead of time. Note about location: The office is a little hard to find, you just have to reach the 8th floor and walk around a corner until you reach the door pictured in the review. read more
