I've been coming to HONOLULU Medspa since 2019, and while there have been many changes over the…read moreyears, one thing has remained consistently excellent - - my treatments. Janika is nothing short of a goddess with lasers! Her precision and attention to detail are unmatched. She takes the time to personalize each session, ensuring that the treatment is tailored perfectly to my skin and needs. I value and appreciate how she communicates every step with clarity and professionalism. I trust her, and only her, with my skin, knowing that I'm in the most capable hands. She's the reason I come to HONOLULU med spa for my laser treatments, one of the things I value most is that she would never recommend Something for you - - even if you think you need it - - if it's not right for your skin. She's a consummate professional, who truly cares about what's best for you. I also have to share Leilani, she's an ARNP who handles injectables. She is the absolute best of the best - -.. Not only is she the sweetest human being, but she also steps into your skin and focuses on achieving beautiful, natural results with as little product as possible. I never feel like she's selling me something, and I never have to worry that I won't look like myself. Leilani is an integral part of HONOLULU MedSpa, and she's been a huge part of allowing me to age gracefully. We all work hard and spend our hard earned money to take care of our skin, and it's definitely money well spent here. If you go to HONOLULU MedSpa, be sure to let them know Deb referred you!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Long and his entire team. From my initial…read moreconsultation through surgery and every post-operative appointment, I have felt supported, cared for, and completely confident that I made the right decision. At 50 years old, choosing facial surgery was a significant decision, and I spent a great deal of time researching my options. Dr. Long performed my deep plane facelift, neck lift, brow lift, upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty. I appreciated his professionalism, meticulous attention to detail, and the time he took to answer all of my questions. His staff was equally exceptional, kind, welcoming, organized, and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. I carefully followed all of the pre-operative and post-operative instructions, and my recovery has progressed exactly as expected. One thing that truly amazed me was that I had virtually no bruising after surgery. While I experienced the expected swelling, it has steadily improved each day. I am only one week post-op, and I already love my upper eyelids. Even with the remaining swelling, I can already see beautiful, natural-looking improvements. One of my favorite parts of recovery has been waking up each morning excited to look in the mirror and see more of my facial features emerge as the swelling continues to decrease. Every day I become more excited about my results. I have already returned to working remotely one week after surgery, and, if my recovery continues on its current path, I expect to be back working in the office by the end of my second or third week. During my recovery, I have made it a priority to follow Dr. Long's instructions, get plenty of rest throughout the day, eat nutritious, protein-rich foods to support healing, stay well hydrated, keep my stress level low, take walks and allow my body the time it needs to recover. Most importantly, I have absolutely no regrets. I am so happy I chose to have my surgery locally with Dr. Long rather than traveling out of state or out of the country. Before my surgery, I wondered if I needed to travel to find an exceptional facial plastic surgeon within my price range. My experience has shown me that you do not have to leave Hawaiʻi to receive meticulous surgical care and beautiful, natural-looking results. Having Dr. Long and his outstanding team nearby for follow-up appointments and ongoing care has also given me tremendous peace of mind throughout my recovery. I know I still have months of healing ahead of me, but if my results at just one week are any indication of what's to come, I couldn't be happier with my decision. I am incredibly grateful to Dr. Long and his entire staff for their skill, professionalism, compassion, and outstanding patient care. I would confidently recommend Dr. Long to anyone considering facial plastic surgery and looking for a surgeon who delivers natural-looking results while providing exceptional care every step of the way.

SURGERY PATIENTS BEWARE…read more I deeply regret selecting Dr. Shim Ching. My experience with him and Asia Pacific was a nightmare, and a significant portion of my result is so unacceptable that I require a costly and risky revision surgery. I feel botched and mutilated. I avoid mirrors and public settings because of the effect this has on my appearance. I am deeply ashamed that I trusted this person and allowed them to do this to my body. On the day of surgery, the anesthesiologist was unaware of important medical history that I had provided to Dr. Ching's staff weeks earlier. Asia Pacific had expressly assured me that my medical history and concerns were being taken seriously. Yet, as I sat prepped and awaiting surgery, it became abundantly clear that this information had not been shared with the anesthesiologist. I then waited in the intake room for more than two hours while the anesthesiologist requested the information I had provided and reviewed it to assess surgical risk. Despite the practice's error, I had no financially viable option to cancel on the spot. Withdrawing that morning would have meant forfeiting over $40,000. I was therefore placed in the untenable position of either proceeding with surgery despite serious concerns about the handling of my medical records or losing the entire amount I had paid because of an error that was not mine. No respectable medical practice would place a patient in that position. This failure, compounded by serious deficiencies in postoperative care and communication, destroyed my trust in both Dr. Ching and his staff. Their conduct changed markedly after the practice collected my full surgical fees -- they repeatedly revealed serious deficiencies in professionalism, communication, and basic administrative competence. I recently requested a partial refund to help defray the cost of revision surgery with a different surgeon. Asia Pacific denied that request outright, without dialogue with me or any form of good-faith effort to address why I don't feel safe with Dr. Ching. Offering to revise his own work is not a reasonable solution when repeated lapses in professionalism, communication, and patient care have left me with no confidence in his judgment or ability. I strongly urge prospective patients to conduct thorough due diligence before entrusting Dr. Ching with their body, safety, and money. Do not assume that "over a million followers" is actually real, or that an expensive office is evidence of surgical competence, patient safety, or accountability.

I came in planning to do a small spot treatment (around $150) to test things out, and was very…read moreupfront during my consultation that I had matting after sclerotherapy and had already undergone multiple laser treatments in California with no results. After evaluating me, they told me they had a laser that could specifically target my matting veins and quoted $500 to treat select areas on both legs. Although this was a big jump from what I initially planned to spend, I agreed based on what sounded like a more specialized and promising approach. However, during the treatment, I immediately had concerns. The laser felt significantly less intense than the IPL and Cynosure treatments I'd previously had, and there was none of the snapping sensation I was used to, something that had typically indicated an effective treatment. What was most surprising and disappointing was the limited treatment area. They only marked off 3-4 small boxes on my legs, whereas prior treatments at a similar price point covered both legs more comprehensively. It felt like the focus was on minimizing effort rather than maximizing results. Unsurprisingly, I saw no improvement. I returned for a follow-up, and they offered to retreat the same areas, again with no results. On my second visit, the provider acknowledged the lack of response and encouraged me to come back a third time to try again. By the third visit, it was clear there was still no progress. After a very brief treatment, I was told (again) to wait a few weeks, and if there were still no results, I could purchase another package. This was after already spending $500 with zero improvement. What was most concerning is that during this process, I was told the laser they had been using is actually more effective for purple veins, not the small red matting veins I have. This was extremely frustrating, given that I had clearly explained my condition from the beginning. Afterward, I consulted with a vein specialist who explained that matting is often very difficult to treat with lasers unless the underlying cause is addressed, something that was never mentioned to me at this med spa. Overall, this experience felt like a costly and avoidable mistake. Had I been given accurate information upfront, I would not have agreed to proceed. Very disappointing.

I do very little make up because at work I'm covered head to toe and stand 10+ hours everyday besides recovering from a broken ankle so tend to spoil my feet. I just love the holiday BLING!! Love love love it!! So I decided to get a head start before the madness kicks in and did a convenient online booking for 10:30am with Albee and was so excited, it's at a convenient location on Beretania right after One Kalakaua with private parking lot and how can you not get giddy as you enter the pink palace filled with beautiful decor. I waited as Albee I imagined was busy on her phone which I didn't mind and waited a few minutes and as she got started was still on her phone and apologized but I seriously didn't mind as we all are constantly multi tasking in some form which I why I wanted to get this done. I booked a pedi with art so that they're aware and not upset that I changed services or whatever and showed her a couple of inspired pictures and she didn't seemed impressed. I wanted a dark red glittery base with some silver gradient color she said no can't do glitter on glitter and went on to cut my nails without asking...mind you I was growing it for over a month just for this purpose. It was cut SHORT AND CROOKED!! Also nicked my cuticles and painted the ugliest flat red with a fade a five year old would do better. Paid $50 ($45 service + $5 art) and had the nerve if I was gonna leave tip which I did because I believe in that. There was nothing she agreed with me not the color I chose, no glitter polish, no art, she chose the color, no customer service but I certainly guarantee one thing...No Thanks!! Sorry I interrupted your phone call.

I started my appointment a little early because she was ready and it maybe took 20 minutes total! This was my first time getting sugaring done for a Brazilian. I've done the at home wax machine but that takes like 2 hours and is the most painful thing ever since you're basically inflicting pain on yourself.

Also, she had an available spot open for me the next day of being in contact with her! Lillian is awesome! She explained exactly what the process was and what she was doing while "sugaring" me. She said that all the products are made of natural ingredients and that the process of sugaring was less painful than waxing. Supposedly the hair grows back lighter and eventually with some maintenance, it doesn't grow back at all! Also, the TV is up high so you can take your mind off of the task at hand. She gets down! hahaha It can be a little uncomfortable at first but she's good at what she does and tries to make you feel as comfortable as possible by talking to you the whole time. I'm so used to waxing so this sugaring thing, wasn't bad at all. She's still pulling out the hairs, however, it's less stressful on your skin. Also, it's cheaper than most spa's that do brazlian waxing. Can't wait to go back to see her again. Don't let the location fool you. The inside of her studio is private and smells nice too. I had an exceptional experience with Lillian! Can't wait to get sugared again! haha
