This review is long overdue! I have gone to Cathea Elite…read moreSkincare several times, and every single time it has been amazing! I have seen a different service provider each time but each experience is identical in the luxury, calmness, and results that I receive. I never feel rushed, I can always ask questions, and I always have a really great experience. I also ALWAYS fall asleep lol the energy is just too good! I've recommended Cathea to several people, and since I live in Santa Cruz... me driving all the way to this skin care studio is a big deal. It's truly so enjoyable and the results speak for themselves!

My esthetician was very nice, she took a picture of my face and showed me the results as far as aging spots, wrinkles and my skin texture. I was given a robe and instructed to lay down, the room and ambiance was very tranquil and relaxing. I appreciated how she told me every step of the way what she was going to do, after she applied a mask that covered my eyes and my mouth she stepped out and I literally snored, that tells you how relaxed I was. Definitely recommend Cathea!

I came here last Saturday to get eyelash extensions and immediately regretted it. I booked with…read moreNita for a 3 o'clock appointment. It went well until I felt like when she went to remove I've of the eyelid covers, she must've got glue on my lid or lashes somehow and ripped when she went to take it off. I should've known that point this was going to not be good. My other eye she kept poking me with tweezers or something (my eye was closed) but I kept feeling little stinging pains and showing her it was hurting me. Then she finished (about 2 hours later around 5) and I immediately couldn't open my eye. Something kept feeling like it was stabbing my eye. I kept trying to tell her I couldn't drive home like this because my eye was watering like crazy because of whatever the lash was doing. She kept trying to fix it but we spent a good 10 mins just trying to get my eye to feel like it could open again. I eventually left when my watering eye came under control. But the rest of the night my eye was red, tearing up like CRAZY, and hurting. I thought with time it would get better but by the next morning my eye was swollen and VERY irritated. I had to remove the lashes less than 24 hours later in the morning by my mom's lash girl who fit me in for emergency lash removal. When I went to get them taken out, she told me there were hardly any lashes and that usually the amount she took off both eyes was the amount on both my eyes. So basically there were hardly any lashes on. She said they were placed improperly, which is why my one eye swelled up. Looking back, when I left Nita offered me a "free follow up appointment" but I wonder now if it was because she wasn't sure about her work. Needless to say I won't be coming back for that. EDIT: Green Skincare saw my review and apologized to me and gave me my money back for this. I appreciate it, and wanted to add that to the review that some action was taken to remedy this. So I can go from 1 to 3 stars because of the apology and refund.

First time here and it was AMAZINGGG!! From the moment I walked in, I felt so welcomed--especially…read moreby the lady at the front. The whole place has such a calm and relaxing vibe. I was a little nervous at first, but Hieu completely changed that. She was so kind, and her hands are honestly magic. She made sure I felt comfortable and relaxed the entire time. I got the facial and scalp treatment, and it was seriously one of the best experiences I've had. I've been to other places before, but this one really stands out. It's also very affordable for the quality of service you get, which makes it even better. Thank you guys so much--I'll definitely be coming back!!

It was my first time getting head message and first time going to TD beauty Spa in Milpitas. I had…read moresuch a wonderful experience at TD Spa in Milpitas today! I booked a head massage with a mini facial with Jessica, and it was absolutely amazing. Jessica is incredibly professional, gentle, and very skilled. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the session and created a very relaxing and calming experience. The head massage was one of the best I've had -- it helped release so much tension and left me feeling deeply relaxed. The mini facial was also refreshing and left my skin feeling clean, soft, and rejuvenated. The spa environment was peaceful and welcoming, which made it easy to completely unwind. You can really tell that Jessica cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. I highly recommend Jessica if you're looking for a relaxing and high-quality spa experience. I will definitely be coming back!

I ended up doing the Collagen Skin Rejuvenation (Microneedling). Ping was very warm and knowledgeable about the services she provides, and I can tell she takes pride and care into her work. She talked me through all the steps she was taking and even stopped to ask me if I had any questions. She explained everything so thoroughly that every time she checked in, I really had nothing more to ask! It was my first time getting a microneedling treatment and my skin has been feeling good and I'm hoping the results will show more as I continue the treatment. I'm super interested in setting up a package plan with Ping when I decide to go back. Ping will take great care of you and leave no questions unanswered. If you're on the fence about it, you should check them out!

This five star review is based on my very first encounter/visit with this place which was nothing…read morebut positive. Thank you, Maricar, for the initial conversation about my concerns. I found it very pleasant, informative and non-pressuring at all. I appreciate the referral to consult with Ping, the Esthetician. Ping, right from the first meeting, was very kind, great at making me feel comfortable and familiar with the place. She was very thorough, asked questions without being intimidating and explained every step as she went through the process. She was even apologetic for being so thorough, to which I would say, it's great when you have someone who does than not, so the client can be an informed and active partner in the treatment process. Ping has great bedside manners. Not everyone in the medical fields does and it's important to me. She's very professional and seems to really care about her client. She's checked on how I was doing many times during the procedure. I left the clinic, feeling at ease. The next day, Ping followed up on how my skin was doing. Such a great gesture and let me know that she's always reachable between visits should I have any questions. I will continue/update my review after next visits. For now, I want Maricar and Ping to know that I appreciate them both.

I don't know how this place can get so many good reviews in the past. The overall facility is not a…read moregood place for facial business. I think the owner (Kimberly) is nice but I am sorry to say that her work does not match the money that I paid for. I scheduled a $95 something dollars for 90 minutes facial and she encouraged me to get my eye brows tinted. I asked how how long it will take, she said about two hours (90 minutes facial and 30 minutes eyebrow tinting), however, I felt like after the eye brows tinting, the facial part was maybe just about an hour, where did the other half an hour go? Did she spend one hour to get my eyebrows tinted? Or was I pushed to pay more $$ but not really get the real value here?

I WILL NEVER COME BACK HERE EVER AGAIN…read more I'm not sure what happened because I used to completely trust Kimberly with my eyebrows, but this time, my right eye brow came out unbelievably terrible! It was a completely different shape than my left--thin, misshapen, and at a completely different level than my left. Then, when I asked her what happened, she had the nerve to tell me that she is "a professional" and she would "never do my eyebrow like that." I'm not sure how that is possible since she had just spent the last ten minutes waxing it. She told me that I was the one who had the badly shapen brown to begin with (even though I had been coming to see her for the past year plus), and that she is a professional so she knows she didn't do anything wrong. She then told me that yes, it's thin and crooked, but that's why I am supposed to tint my brow or fill it in with pencil. Seriously??!! I told her that I was really unhappy because it's my face (!), and I'm so embarrassed to walk around like this, and she continued to say that she "would never do my eyebrow like that," which still makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever. I said that I didn't want to pay the full $18 for obvious reasons (especially after she tried to tell me that she hadn't done anything wrong), and she told me she would call the cops if I didn't pay the $18. WOW. I am so, unbelievable floored that his happened, and even more disappointed and upset by Kimberly's defensive and demeaning response to my reaction. She did not even acknowledge that she did anything wrong, even though she admitted the right brow was different than the left. I thought I had found an amazing eyebrow place, but I will never, ever come here again. I don't recommend it to anyone, not so much because she messed up my eyebrow, which although it will take three plus months to grow back, will eventually grow back. I don't recommend Kimberly because of how she reacted to the situation. Downright terrible. *****10/10: I just checked my card statement, and SHE ADDED TIP to my bill after I left. Completely unprofessional, not to mention illegal. I am in the process of contacting my bank. I already contacted her about it, and surprise, no response. When she did contact me back, she completely denied it, and also left me a very threatening voice mail.

Such a welcoming and genuine place!…read more I've been thinking about Botox and fillers for a long time but honestly knew nothing about the process. From the moment I walked in, I felt completely comfortable. Louise at the front desk was so sweet and knowledgeable--she explained the different services clearly and was very transparent about her own experiences, which I really appreciated. Maryam did my first ever lip filler, and she was amazing. She has such an energetic and comforting manner and never once made me feel pressured to do more than what I wanted. She really focused on understanding my goals and made sure they were met. Throughout the appointment, she explained everything she was doing and checked in to make sure I loved the results. The whole experience felt effortless and supportive. Everyone there is beautiful and inviting, not superficial at all. You can tell they genuinely want you to feel happy and confident with yourself, not just sell you more product. I already booked my next appointments with Maryam and can't wait to come back. I absolutely love this place

Called this clinic since I was interested with laser treatment for acne scars. I wasnt informed…read morethat consultation would be with someone named Louise who wasnt a medical professional at all. During our consultation she was pretty much trying to "judge" whats wrong with my skin/face and wanted to upsell facials and other treatments. She was very pushy and I didnt feel comfortable continuing anymore since I felt like I wasnt being heard and she said "you cannot start the treatments without committing to facials" despite explaining that I have an actual derm I see regularly. The whole interaction just felt very uncomfortable knowing that this lady whos not a medical professional is giving medical advice?? I have gone to other medspas and I am a nurse myself so I see what she was doing. Super weird interaction, she seemed like a sales person just wanting to get commission badly..

I get my Botox done with Alana and she is amazing! super sweet, knowledgeable, and really listens to what you want while keeping everything looking natural. I also do microneedling with PRP with the doctor, and my skin has honestly never looked better. I've done 5 sessions so far and have noticed a huge improvement in my skin texture, glow, and overall appearance. The treatment is very tolerable, just expect some redness afterward, so I'd recommend scheduling it on a day you can stay home and relax. The results are definitely worth it!

I randomly selected this clinic because it was convenient for us to drive from Tracy, CA. We went…read morein for my son's hair loss consultation and met Dr. Andy Nguyen. I truly don't have enough good things to say about him. For a very nominal consultation fee, he provided an incredible amount of information about hair loss and clearly explained the treatment options we should consider. He patiently listened to all of our concerns and walked us through the entire process in great detail. We were never rushed, nor did we experience any sales pressure or pitch. I am extremely impressed and highly recommend Dr. Nguyen. It's rare to find a professional of his caliber who is willing to spend so much time with patients while making you feel completely at ease and unpressured. If you're experiencing hair loss, don't wait, go see him and at least get yourself checked out.

If I could give this place a million stars I would. Late 2024, I got double eyelid surgery and I…read morehad to get steroid injections for scarring. Unfortunately, my skin had an extremely poor reaction to it and I got acne like I never had before. My self esteem plummeted and I didn't want to leave my house due to my skin condition. Tried literally every product under the sun and nothing ever worked. I decided to give this place a shot, and it's incredible how quickly the results are. You can see photos from my first appointment in June to a few days after to the last week of the month. Lina spent so much time in crafting a dedicated plan for me and she has extensive knowledge of Chinese medicine/practice. I go once a month now for facial/extractions and every three months for microneedling. I barely break out now and my skin has never looked better! I cannot recommend this place enough (Biggest shoutout to Lina and Karen! These women are pros and their work and care sincerely changed my life!!)

I've been coming here to see Karen for YEARS, and cannot believe I haven't written a review yet!…read more Years ago, I had been struggling a lot with adult acne, but was a little cautious and wary of prescription creams & medication. I had also tried various recommended skincare from Sephora and other beauty influencers on Instagram, but none of them seemed to work. On a whim, I asked my skincare-addict friend if she had any recommendations, and she said her friend had gone to this place in Fremont that does acne extractions that she spoke highly of. Before this, it hadn't even crossed my mind to see an aesthetician for my acne. Karen was my aesthetician, and she performed a manual acne extraction + other hydrating treatments afterwards. I'm not going to sugar coat it, the extraction HURTS! But it's only in the moment of the extraction, it doesn't keep hurting afterwards. Karen was as gentle as she could be, but also meticulous. I felt as if she was digging into every one of my pores (in a good way)! After years of struggling with acne, I decided to bite the bullet and just trust the process with Karen. Instead of other facial places, I don't have to pick and decide for myself which treatment I want -- Karen takes in the current state of my face with every visit and suggests the treatment that she thinks is the best. It took a little while to fully see the results, but it was so worth it! After a few months, I already started see a reduction in my normal acne. In around year or two, I not only barely had any acne, my skin was so much healthier, and I swear my pores seemed to have shrunk! This is no doubt a splurge on myself (I now routinely go in for monthly facials), but has honestly been so worth it. I do feel like Beauty Legend uses quality products & technologies, like nice Italian skincare & modern Korean technology/machines. I almost exclusively use their products in my home skincare routine now. I'll try some other products every once in a while, but my skin seems to not like them as much!

I recently got the Diamond Facial at Renew MD, and I honestly loved the experience. From the moment…read moreI walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. The facial itself was incredibly relaxing yet effective. My skin felt deeply cleansed, smooth, and noticeably brighter right after the session. The diamond exfoliation was gentle but thorough--no irritation at all, just that fresh, glowing skin feeling. What I really appreciated was how knowledgeable and attentive the provider was. They explained each step, customized the treatment based on my skin, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. If you're looking for a facial that gives instant glow, improves texture, and still feels luxurious and calming, I highly recommend the Diamond Facial at Renew MD. I'll definitely be back!

TLDR; the location is convenient and staff at the Fremont office are fantastic! They have been so…read morepatient with me and have shared so much wisdom about skincare in general. Every product they have recommended has worked shockingly well for my skin. I was skeptical about it all at first but that has been proven otherwise. I've gone through a complete transformation and I was once one of those people who used Nivea and a soap bar for my face. It worked while it did but after 30, not so much. I looked in the mirror and my face was so dry and my budding cracks so... prominent? Obviously no longer good enough. I did research on many places in the east bay and chose here because of its boutique-like charm and upfront prices. I wanted a personalized experience and that's exactly what these ladies delivered! My goal was to preventively restore the skin under my chin to delay my growing jowls and smile lines. Since joining RenewMDs Beauty Society, I have had Ultherapy on my lower face/neck, 4 months of Trizep, Potenza and Picosure, and a lot of Skin by Dr Sethi! I actually look better now than before I had my son having lost the extra lbs and taking more care of my skin. I get stares in public and complements again my coworkers ask me for my beauty "secrets" (lol no secrets). My husband is handsier too! All this was by no means painless - beauty is pain! And expensive! But if you are looking for a transformation/ restoration project like I was, this is the place to achieve that! Thank you Dr Sethi, Ruby, Syenna, Stephanie, and Ms Joy
