It was for a full body wax, but when I called to make the appointment, Minda just kept saying "it's soooo much work". I told her that it's fine, I won't buy it if she doesn't want to do it. She said she would still honor the deal but kept repeating it's so much work and would take hours and that Groupon was supposed to take the ad down. It felt like she wanted me to offer to pay more, but I just said it sounds like she doesn't want to do it so I can go elsewhere and she said she would prefer that. I think turning someone away in that way was unprofessional and it made me really uncomfortable that she kept telling me how much work it is. She shouldn't offer a service she isn't willing to follow through with. It was just a very uncomfortable experience.

The technology wasn't available yet, and many other places only treats acne on the face, so it was really hard to get any sort of help for awhile. Along comes NCSS! I've been treated by Taylor, Ali, and Kalli, and have been to their old location too, so I've been a faithful customer for about a year now before writing this review. My back with the acne scars is so clear now and smooth and I am so happy with the results. I also buy skin care products from them here to also use on my face, it's been so helpful. Seriously have been so awesome and now that I have teenage daughters, I will be bringing them here when they need it. I'm all for supporting a small, woman-owned business when considering any sort of facial or treatments in general, and this place fits the bill perfectly. I'm a loyal customer for life.

The Glow Theory could tell how urgent my situation was and graciously squeezed me in for the last appointment of the day. Insiyah Darugar, MSN, FNP, Founder and CEO, was incredibly thorough. She took the time to provide a comprehensive consultation, treatment, and aftercare plan. I never once felt rushed or like I was the last patient of the day. I was genuinely blown away by how thoughtful, compassionate, and attentive she and her entire team were. Thank you so much for taking such great care of me--I truly appreciate it!

Went in Dec 2025 for a consult on filler, wanted results from an HA filler, Restylane. I was upsold on getting a package that included Moxi laser with Radiesse, a biostimulator instead. I have skin of color and should have known better. Insiyah went in aggressively with the laser, her own admittance. A month later, my face was inflamed. Was given a wonderful product to reduce the redness and inflammation. However, the areas of my face where she used the laser aggressively were darkened permanently. I was given a hydroquinone regimen. My face never recovered. I still have enhanced areas of darkness, where the laser brought out new melasma and darkened pre-existing melasma. Very disappointed with the experience at this spa. Women with skin of color should not be advised to undergo laser treatment. This spa is not an expert on treating women with skin of color. Additionally, I had zero results from the Radiesse. I was told that I would need three more vials at a cost of thousands of dollars to get close to the results I wanted.

NOTING Aesthetically Pleasing about this place!!!…read more I had 3 BBL Laser treatments at this Med Spa performed by NP Sydney. My skin is rosacea prone so BBL when done correctly is very helpful. Unfortunately during the first treatment my face was burned and I ended up with deep purple bruises and blisters. I had to stay home for a week until the blisters subsided. My face became more red than before the treatment. I was told that the next two sessions would give me the expected results, but they did not. My face became very sensitive and the redness didn't go away. I noticed deeper broken capillaries in the areas where I was burned. When I expressed my concerns Sydney simply shook her head and said: "there is always a risk". My risk was in her hands. Her job was to assess my skin type, select the appropriate filters and correctly adjust the laser's energy setting, but she is either inexperienced or incapable. After contacting Sydney again I got a call from the owner, Stacy Grissen and she set up an appointment for me to come to see her the fallowing week.The day of the appointment Stacy called me and with an aggressive tone of voice informed me that she was cancelling our meeting, (BTW if I cancelled an appointment the same day they would charge a fee). She said that I snapped my fingers in front of Sydney's face, which is a complete lie... and btw why wait a week to cancel an appointment? I guess she decided to be offensive rather than being concerned that her employee did damage to my face.The way she treated me is inappropriate and dishonest. I am writing this to warn anyone who is thinking of using this business : go there at your own peril. There is no place for a business like this in our beautiful community of Encinitas.
