    Our first interaction
    Jenna L.

    Given all of Mel's stellar reviews and the way I responded with understanding when she cancelled my appointment 3 different times on the day of, I really do not understand why she treated me so horribly - other than I was trying to book with a Groupon that my kids had bought me for Mother's Day. You can see from the texts that I was supportive of her needing to reschedule the first time because she was working on her finals for her landscape architect degree. I cheered her on. I thought it was great she was furthering her education and even asked about it later. The next time, she really didn't give a clear reason because she initially offered the time slot and then the day of said she needed more time than that appointment would allow, but again, I was fine with it and booked another time slot. It's now been ten days and the morning of my third appointment she texts me that she is in pain and needs to reschedule. She said it might be her gall bladder or she might be dying. She offered me some slots, including ones that were two weeks away. But I have a new job and a wedding coming up and wanted to make certain I have time to heal beforehand. I running out of time. At 9:26 am, she offered me the slot for the next day at noon. One minute later, I responded with "OK," and asked her how she knew she'd be better. I told her if she wasn't better tomorrow, that I'd understand and I'd ask for a refund from Groupon. I was not rude or aggressive. She has cancelled last minute 3 different times and I was still polite. You can see by the texts, that is when she became belligerent and started lying about the appointment. I immediately said ok to the appointment time and then tells me she took me off the calendar. She said I didn't confirm, but I had said ok one minute after she offered it. Mel was not apologetic in the least and it was apparent she didn't care about providing me any kind of customer service or consideration for her repeatedly cancelling at the last minute. I was so excited to get my eyeliner done again. And my kids were happy they got me a gift I liked so much. It is a shame that Mel seems to resent people wanting to use the Groupon that she offers because she said she loses money. Then why offer it? It's a marketing expense. Please don't be nasty because I pay you money for your services exactly as you advertised on Groupon. I wouldn't recommend her at all. She may do good work (or not, I never had the chance to find out for myself), but she seems to be a seriously vindictive person and lacks good customer service skills. In the end, not someone I want with a needle near my eye. I could only image how she'd react if she messed up the procedure. Just like the way she behaved with canceling on me, she probably would fail to take responsibility for that as well. Bad luck is what she said about her cancelling over and over. It's sad that she tainted my kid's Mother's Day gift, but I'll find someone else and re-write my experience to end on a good note.

    Mel is my favorite girl to go to for my peels and skin care needs! With my peel she always give me a deep hydrating mask plus she'll do some red light therapy on me as well ! She's always super friendly and knowledgeable on all of her products and always gives me helpful information on things I can do at home to help boost the treatments effectiveness. Her Shop is very cute and clean and I have never had a bad experience with her.

    Pretty set up and very peaceful

    I has a great experience at Mel's. She was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. She explained and walked me through the whole bleaching process. I'm really glad I found her! I'll def be coming back.

    I had a great experience today! I definitely recommend trying this place out (:  #spa

On June 7th, I brought a friend who was visiting from Washington to get IV therapy with me. We were offered a private room, and the staff was attentive at the start of our visit. However, after our second IV bags were connected, neither of us was checked on again. Both my friend and I fell asleep during treatment. I eventually woke up because I needed to use the restroom and pressed the call button multiple times before someone responded. When the nurse came in, she noticed my IV bag was empty and so was my friends . Once the lights were turned on, I could see a significant amount of blood had backflowed into the tubing approximately 12 inches from my arm. When the IV was disconnected, blood also got onto the pillow beneath my arm. I was told this was "normal" and the situation was laughed off, which left me feeling uneasy. After speaking with a nurse friend, I learned that while the blood backflow itself is generally not harmful, it can happen when an IV bag is allowed to run dry and isn't disconnected promptly. What concerns me most is not the blood in the tubing, but that neither of us was checked on after the second bag was hung. Had I not repeatedly pressed the call button, I'm not sure how much longer we would have been left unattended. I've always had wonderful experiences here, which is why this stood out so much. My hope is that this feedback helps improve monitoring, especially for guests placed in private rooms. A simple check-in and a more professional response would have gone a long way.

I was told as well that my skin would get worst but slowly get better as I had facials. Well it definitely got worst after the first one. Vivella has a cancellation policy where you need to cancel at least 24 hours before your appointment. That being said, for my second facial they e-mailed me I believe a day or two before my next appointment to confirm. They then emailed me the night before my appointment to cancel. I didn't see it till the next morning and came to my appointment anyways and waited outside for maybe half an hour before I checked my email. The following time Mary who did my one facial and consolations came late and talked me out of getting a facial. Once again my skin was pretty bad and said I didn't need it. I honestly think she just didn't want to do it. I ended up never coming back and ended up going on acutane, against her advice, and my skin has never looked better (with some scaring still but no acne or redness). Vivella has been very unprofessional in how they handle their clients by forgetting about them and emailing last minute when their clients have to pay a fee to cancel their appointments in advance. Service wise I couldn't really say because I never completed my treatments but unprofessional in how they conduct their business.

Joseph is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his clients. He takes the time to sit down with you and explains what he sees and discusses what your face needs and he outlines the steps it will take to achieve your goals. He even shares research and educational information so you can make informed decisions. What sets Joseph apart is that he looks beyond appearance. He talks about overall health, including things like body fat levels, diet, and wellness, not just cosmetic treatments. He takes a genuine interest in his clients as people, often asking about my health, my family, and how I am doing. My consultations have always been thorough, and he has generously provided consultations free of charge. He is also mindful of costs and has worked with me financially by offering discounts and including extra treatments whenever possible. The entire staff is friendly, welcoming, and personable. As a 73-year-old client, trust and integrity are very important to me, and Joseph has earned my trust over many years. I appreciate his professionalism, kindness, and commitment to helping his clients look and feel their best.

She was nice initially till she realized I had a Groupon. Her whole demeanor changed. When I was paying for the treatment, the secretary asked if she should schedule a follow up, and the injector said no need she has a Groupon. For background, I have used botox before and received it in Korea at a skincare clinic. I loved the results then and thought it would be similar to that treatment. In Korea, they cleanse and numb your face prior to treatment. They also show you the bottle before they draw it into the needle. At skin perfect brothers, she turned her back to me and didn't show me that it really was botox. It could have been dysport for all I know. She rubbed a Vaseline type cream on my forehead without wiping it clean and just started injecting (after marking my muscle movement). Its only been 5 days, and we'll see in 2 weeks at its full development. I wanted an annual visit there, but after that treatment... I'm good. They did text me to see if I was happy with it. I'll find out in 2 weeks and let them know.

I scheduled a consultation to define my jawline, and their process requires sending a $150 deposit, which they state will go toward a treatment or skincare purchase. At first, I thought that was fair, but unfortunately, I was wrong. After my consultation, I was quoted $2k-$3k for treatments that went beyond what I was actually asking for. It felt like they were trying to upsell me. When I politely requested a refund of my $150 deposit, I was denied, being told it was a fee just to see the practitioner. I wasn't trying to be difficult, so I asked about other alternatives, like using the deposit toward a facial. But when I inquired, I was told it would be another $80--so in total, $229. At that point, I didn't want to give this place any more of my money. Looking back, the biggest red flag (that I wish I caught sooner) was the lack of transparency with their pricing. Other med spas are upfront about what their services cost, which is much more honest. I understand it's a business, but this experience left me feeling misled and out $150 for nothing. I won't be returning.
