I especially want to thank Stephanie, PA-C. She was incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and genuinely helpful. She took the time to examine my skin, explain her recommendations, and educate me about other treatments that could help improve my skin. I never felt rushed and really appreciated how informative and professional she was. Alexa, the office manager, was also so kind and generous. She offered me a complimentary facial, which was such an unexpected and appreciated treat! And my esthetician was absolutely amazing! She was warm, friendly, and made the entire experience so relaxing. I left feeling completely refreshed and pampered. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, informative, and genuinely caring. The level of customer service was exceptional, and I truly felt taken care of from start to finish. And the best part? I came home and my boyfriend immediately noticed that my skin looked extra good. That's when you know the facial did its job! I'm so glad I found Skin Perfect Whittier and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for knowledgeable professionals and a welcoming, personalized experience.

I'll definitely be coming back in about a month for another session. Highly recommend asking for Francesca if you want your skin to look and feel its best!

One of the first things I noticed was that the doors and windows aren't completely blacked out. You can actually see into the spa from outside, which immediately made the space feel more welcoming, professional, and comfortable. HUGE plus for me! I originally found Agave Beauty & Spa when I purchased a gift card for my aunt's 60th birthday. She absolutely LOVED her experience and has been coming back ever since Liz is now her go-to for facials, and Linda is her girl when she wants a strong massage! After hearing her rave about them, I finally decided to give Agave a try myself and... OHHH MY GOD! WHERE HAS THIS HIDDEN GEM BEEN?! My face was left feeling incredibly clean, refreshed, and rejuvenated. What I appreciated most was that there was ZERO pressure to buy expensive products, upgrade services, or add a bunch of extras. I've been to places where the constant upselling completely ruins the relaxing experience and leaves a bad taste in your mouth. None of that here. The service felt genuine, professional, and focused on what I actually needed. If you're looking for quality massages, facials, and professional spa services, I HIGHLY recommend Agave Beauty & Spa in Uptown Whittier. I work for the city, so best believe I'll be spreading the word about this hidden gem! 5 STARS -- you've definitely gained another customer!

Most spas offer lymphatic drainage with a facial, but I didn't want that. I just wanted the massage. I found Agave through Yelp and I am so glad I did. This place is located on a quiet street in uptown Whittier. There's free parking in front on the street or a free parking structure directly across. The place is small on the outside but seems bigger on the inside. It's super clean and gives off a relaxing vibe. The massage room has a wall of battery operated candles that give off that ambient lighting and the soothing music is the cherry on top. Liz is so sweet. Talking to her feels like talking to an old friend. She's knowledgeable and good at what she does. The first session I did, I just got the facial massage, but during my session she learned I was post op and suggested the chin contour treatment which comes with red light therapy to promote healing and another machine that uses heat to help tighten the skin. The massage feels like a good type of pain. I know she's working her magic and I leave Agave with my jawline snatched. I love how she suggests things I can do while at home, in between sessions. And she makes sure I'm doing my part to help myself heal. I can't wait to be fully healed and try the other treatments they offer. The prices are super reasonable which is why I'll for sure be back and be referring anyone and everyone.

I just recently went in for hair removal and I must say, "Andrea"(Andrea Aesthetics At Mahelia Skin Care) did such a fantastic job! She has a customer for life or until I can't do this anymore. She is professional and her customer service is above and beyond. She listens to what you want and during the process, she's constantly checking up on you to make sure you're okay. Her place of business has the intimacy and setting of a 'day spa'. It's very quiet and personable. The fact that she schedule's by appointment only, provides that VIP care that we all want and need from time to time. I highly recommend her for hair removal, facials, make-up application, what ever you need. She's extremely honest and she's not pushy with service recommendations, her prices are reasonable too! Call her, make an appointment and be your own judge. She's great! 562-607-7713 read more

I'm freaking GLOWING and it's been almost 12 hours since I had my facial. I have had chemical peels, glycolic facials, oxygen treatments, etc. in an effort to undo the un-sunscreened years of my youth. Now that I'm in my 30's I've been trying a variety of skincare lines with some success and I had reached out to Jennifer several weeks ago because I was interested to know if she used Dermalogica products (she does) because I had a baby 9 months ago and that's the only skincare line my hormonal face seems to be able to handle. During the facial I was so relaxed, she walked me through each of the steps and each of the products she was using on me, warned me when something would tingle, and made suggestions when I asked for advice for future steps. When I got home and my husband saw me he even commented that it looked like I had gotten a full night's sleep which is impressive since I haven't had a full night's sleep in MONTHS. I also appreciated that she gave me samples to try at home but I didn't feel pressured to buy any products like other places I've been to have tried to do. I will definitely be making facials a regular priority in my self-care rotation with my new fave esthetician. Thank you again for a great experience Jennifer!
