The recovery period wasn't bad at all and my skin looks brighter and smoother! From the beginning to the end, a positive experience all-round. I will be back for my next micro needling!

She explains to you every part of the process makes you feel super comfortable and at ease. I only had 3 sessions for my legs and even then I saw some great results.

Anyways if you are looking for a great place to get your laser hair removal done, I highly recommend Tamra!

The front desk lady said it's going to cost me $104.. today when I came out the session they charged me$208 , when I asked why, they said it's $104 for each area. They neglected to inform me from the beginning that they charge for each area separately, and when I brought it up with the front desk lady, she said that Groupon does a different deals than what they offer on site, how ridiculous it is to say something like that when the Business is working with Groupon and decide which deals to do, apparently she didn't know what she was talking about, but she had the balls to argue with me, young lady sitting in the front desk being rude, and keep arguing about stuff that she has no idea about! I myself is a business owner and I know exactly how Groupon works . I will not be going to this place again I will not recommend it. They sell you a Groupon, but then they scam you. Beware!

And I was told when I was sold a package that it would tighten my neck. Six months later and little has improved on my face and neck.

I'm pissed because when I called to complain I was told I needed multiple sessions and I can't believe I was told this! At 3K a pop I am better off getting a facelift. Then they said they would take $1,400 off. Oh wow... I have been a loyal client of Laseraway and as an aesthetician I have referred many client here and family. I am not happy and will likely not be back after my Botox package is up. They push sales, and don't back results. I was basically told in the end that there was only so much they could do and that I needed plastic surgery. No problem, BUT I should have been warned before buying this treatment!

As a previous review commented, I am disappointed to write this review, although one should be…read moreaware before making an appointment. Wallach Derma Center came as a doctor referral as I wanted an annual routine appointment. I made an appointment and went in on December 30th, 2025. Very nice office, all staff was friendly and efficient. Dermatologist and assistant cut off 2 moles for biopsy and froze a couple of "concern" areas all in a matter of roughly 45 minutes. I paid a $50 co-pay. After a couple of weeks, I received a lab fee for just over $250, which I understand and paid. This week I received an additional invoice from Wallach for over $370 for my patient portion of the visit. I have attached the invoice with over $1,000 in charges for the 45 mins visit on 12/30/25. My insurance covered roughly $625 of these charges. I reached out to Wallach stating I felt these charges were excessive and asked for a review. I received an email back the following day stating they were correct with no adjustments. For a routine check-up to ultimately cost me over $670 out of pocket with good insurance is a complete rip off. Make sure you do your due diligence as all dermatologists are not the same. Nice enough people, but I won't be back.

I am really disappointed to write this. My daughter has been treated here for acne and the regimen…read moreprescribed worked well enough. I brought her back in Sep. '23 for two warts on her thumb and hand. Nurse Sarah applied "beetle juice" to it and scheduled a follow up. It pretty much burned a hole in her hand but she said to expect that. We went back two weeks later for the follow up appt where she again applied beetle juice to it a second time. We paid $45 copays for both visits plus a "surgery" fee for the second visit of $143, plus they received two payments from our insurance for both visits. After two treatments here, the wart still hadn't completely gone away on either her thumb or her hand! I scheduled a third appt for her in May of this year, this time with Dr. Wallach, for another follow up on the warts. Rather than a third application of beetle juice, this time he sprayed it with liquid nitrogen to freeze it off. Except he really sprayed the HECK out of her hand. See the attached picture of what it looked like SEVEN DAYS AFTER he sprayed it. This burned hole in her hand was originally twice this size and twice as deep immediately following his freezing treatment. I have personally never had a wart in my life so I have zero experience with getting them frozen off, so I didn't know if this was normal or not. My daughter said it was extremely painful and complained to me daily about how much her hand hurt. It eventually healed over but she still a "ring" around the previously frozen wart of where a new wart has regrown. So we have taken her here 3x for wart removal on the same spot and despite literally burning a hole in her hand, they haven't been able to completely eradicate what was originally a very small wart on her thumb. Imagine my surprise when I received yet another bill in the mail a month later for "surgery" again for another $143, again after I had paid a third copay of $45 and Dr. Wallach had received a third payment from our insurance for this visit. I called to complain about how my daughter's treatment badly burned a hole in her hand, that I thought we were going in for a follow up and didn't think we should have to pay for the damage he caused to her hand, and the wart was still present despite all this pain she had gone through. The receptionist said she would pass my concern on to Dr. Wallach. I then received a voicemail from Dr. Wallach saying that sometimes this happens and asked me to bring my daughter back in so he could take a look at her hand. It was a month later by this point and healed over, what did he think he was going to look at? I also didn't want to get stuck paying a fourth $45 copay to visit them again. But more importantly, my daughter begged me not to bring her back here, understandably. I didn't contact him back and they never contacted me again. I didn't know if they had written off the $143 or not because he never addressed my question about the bill in his voicemail. Another month passes and despite my complaint, Dr. Wallach's office sends me yet another bill for the $143 again for the third visit. I paid it, because I always pay my bills, but now I'm leaving this review to warn others. Don't come here for wart removal unless this is the result you want. I am now taking her to a new dermatologist to get their recommendation on what to do for the remaining wart on her thumb!

Wallach Derma Center - My daughter's thumb 7 days AFTER Dr. Wallach froze off her wart. It was twice this size originally. She told me every day how much it hurt.

Thankfully I didn't buy any additional packages otherwise I would be charging back from that too. This service was done on April 21st at around 12pm. I've attached pictures below with timestamps of what my skin looks like after the terrifying micro needling experience. As you can see clearly all around my lip, blood vessels were broken and the blood spots all over my face. 9 days after the initial service: I was able to recover and fix the damage with help of other estheticians from other spas. Now I am left with a dark patch as you can see in my last photo dated April 30 which now needs additional treatment to correct. Ive had micro needling done at other places and also inquired other estheticians after this experience, they have all said this is unacceptable and will require further treatment to fix this damage. This spa also claims that it is NORMAL, when as other estheticians said it is not and far beyond normal. Redness is normal after micro needling, but not to the extent of broken blood vessels AND bleeding. Please please please be aware, don't be swayed, looking out for future girls who want to improve their skin and not to be damaged.
