    Had an IPL facial by heather and my three week results are amazing! Heather explained everything each step of the way, within an hour we were all done. Freckles and redness have significantly lessened. I feel like my skin is glowing. Very happy with my results and would definitely do another round of IPL. Bottom pic is my "after" no makeup or product on the skin.

    I saw Shiva for several years and her services have always been incredible, warm, supportive. I am leaving this negative review for two reasons. First, I began receiving constant emails, texts, and solicitations from a former employee of Nubo who left the business and started their own. I never consented to have my contact information shared in this way, and had to ask *repeatedly* across platforms for them to stop texting/emailing/soliciting me. This incident made me very uncomfortable. Second, I made an appointment online for an appointment with Shiva for Thursday this week. I received a text from the business (the person didn't identify themselves) saying that Shiva worked Thursdays and Fridays. Which of course would be fine...the appointment I made was for a Thursday. After some very confusing back and forth where the mystery person kept telling me she worked on different days (photos attached) they cancelled my appointment and told me to make another. I did. They cancelled it. They rescheduled me for some random date and time I didn't pick in the future. I asked them to remove me from the schedule. I received an email for another random date. When I called today in frustration to ask to be removed from their system entirely, the person didn't respond to my complaint about the back and forth or the fact that I'd been scheduled for a day/time I never consented to schedule and didn't ask to schedule. She was like "ok you're off the schedule". Okay! That's fine. But I also haven't had a cancellation confirmation so part of me is bracing to either be rescheduled or charged for the appointment when I don't know up. Who knows! Anyway, it's not that deep. Shiva is fantastic! But the prices here are higher than most places in the East Bay and a) the unprofessional way the business handles client information and b) the hassle with scheduling and deeply unprofessional behavior of the front desk lost my trust and business.

    Facial burns that are bleeding or encrusted over. This is the result of a Brightening Facial at Nubo Spa.

    There's a reason this place has such high reviews. Everyone here is experienced, professional, and…read morethey go the extra mile. I've had filler once, Botox once, and two RF microneedling sessions and it's like the technicians are OCD. Three full passes, every patch of skin is covered, and the results are the best I've had. They give you time to numb, and they do a great job distracting you from the discomfort if you do decide to go for a more intense setting. Also, really helpful with the GLP, clear labeling on each syringe, and easy FaceTime with the doctor. I've never had to wait past an appointment time and there's always parking. Really grateful I found this spot. Note: Sheila did the rf microneedling if you end up scheduling that service. I normally have some white spots but after the service with her my entire face is covered and it shows in the results.

    I booked a consultation with Dr. Shay with the intent to purchase a skin treatment package since…read morethe $200 consultation fee can go towards the treatments. The interior of the medspa is clean, minimal, and thoughtfully designed. The consultation was pretty short and confirmed what treatment I was looking for. I felt uncomfortable about the various treatment and product recommendations because I didn't feel like I had a say in what I wanted to opt in or out of. Dr. Shay informed me that a package of 5 was recommended (since packages are usually at a discount vs individual) and that it is typically $950/session for the face, but that she would honor the 5-package sessions to use for my arms as well. When I was walked back up to the front desk, I was quoted a different (higher) price for the package. I wish there was more communication between the staff because I definitely felt cheated. I was ready to purchase the package of 5 as quoted by Dr. Shay, but after hearing the discrepancies I felt hesitant to commit to Kintsu for so many sessions and opted to purchase just a single session which I used the next day instead. Additionally, a skincare product box set was brought up to the front as if I was going to purchase it when in fact I never agreed to it. Thankfully the ladies respected my decision and didn't try to push the product, although I did feel like I was being judged in the moment. I was also recommended a facial which I was not interested in and again felt like I was cornered into purchasing. The day of my treatment went much better, but could still use some improvements. It would've also been nice to have a clock in the room where the prep was done. I was sitting in there for what felt like ages and didn't want to move around too much reaching for my phone. The treatment itself felt pretty straightforward and the nurse had a calm demeanor which was appreciated. I couldn't remember what the aftercare instructions were, so a post-treatment care sheet would've been helpful. The nurse also said she would give me an ice pack afterwards to help sooth my skin, but I wasn't given one and just went up to the front to pay - oh well, no biggie but sometimes the details are what makes the clients feel appreciated and coming back. Overall, I wouldn't be opposed to coming back here if I wanted the convenience of going somewhere close by. The treatment itself was fine, but just be aware that products and services may be pushed on you and to just be firm about what your focus is.

The difference is saddening. Five months later and I have now decided it will not settle anymore and look any better and that I've come to reality that this was a big mistake. Do not trust them to enhance your beauty. They will ruin your looks so that they can make an extra buck. I thought I could trust them because of the good reviews but this was clearly not the case.
