If you are struggling with acne look no further than Pacific Touch. They are the best at what they do and if you don't believe me head to their instagram to see before and afters. They look to the root of your skin issues and address the problems instead of suppressing your acne like most dermatologists do. I had tried a lot of common acne treatments prior to coming to Pacific Touch: Dapsone gel, Tretinoin and Adapalene. Unfortunately, none of them worked. I started my acne clearing journey with Pacific Touch in February of 2022 by paying for a product recommendation consult with Nichola. I was blown away immediately with her kindness, compassion and knowledge. I then began seeing Jeanine and Nichola for regular facials. Each visit they adjusted my routine as needed. Jeanine and Nichola listened to me and treated me with the utmost care and support. I came to to Pacific Touch with horrible chin and forehead acne and a year out I am completely clear. It's a marathon, not a sprint, but I promise you if you listen to the wonderful women at Pacific Touch they will give you clear, glowing skin. read more

I was a client of Pacific Touch for almost 9 months and worked with Kim, Bella, and Ariana. I came to PT seeking help with my frequent breakouts and a new regimen to treat my sensitive, acne prone skin. Unfortunately, the Roccoco Botanicals products didn't agree with my skin, and made my skin worse than when I started. I stayed consistent for 9 months, but had no choice but to stop using the products entirely. When I stopped, my skin started improving gradually. I believe PT has good intentions and the education they provide on products and lifestyle/diet changes can be helpful. However, if your skin doesn't agree with certain products/routine, it won't make a difference whether or not you eat certain foods or use a specific laundry detergent. This isn't meant to be negative- just an honest review of my experience after staying consistent with both products and treatments for 9 months. read more

Amazing experiences year after year! Ariana is always such a pleasure. My time with her is very relaxing but still informative. She gives me positive feedback and reinforcement for my skin and the goals I want to achieve. She follows up after every session with a detailed email. I'm so appreciative for Ariana and the whole PT family. This is why I've been a client since 2021 and never plan to seek anywhere else for my skin needs. A BIG thank you again! read more

Pacific Touch has been my saving grace as somebody who is acne prone. Before PT, I had seen numerous dermatologists who just gave me birth control (a bandaid treatment), tretinoin, and other products that just ruined my skin barrier & broke me out even more instead of getting to the root of the problem. I also ended up spending hundreds of dollars on skincare products trying to get rid of my acne. My confidence was shot, my bank account was drained, and I still couldn't figure out why I was still dealing with acne. Before my first appointment at Pacific Touch, I had to fill out an extensive questionnaire regarding the things I used on a daily basis. Who knew that toothpaste and laundry detergent could be contributing to my acne? I have since changed all of my products (hair care, makeup, toothpaste, skincare, laundry detergent, etc) and finally have clear skin. I am so lucky to have found a place with estheticians that truly want to help me figure out how to heal my skin, and I promise that they are better than any dermatologist when it comes to healing acne. I highly recommend Pacific Touch if you are struggling with acne. Facials at PT are one of my favorite forms of self care--I always leave feeling so relaxed & looking so glowy. There's truly nobody else I would trust with my skin. I'm so grateful to have found Nichola and her amazing team at PT read more

I am disappointed by my experience here. I read the reviews and was very excited to get an appointment at Pacific Touch. I've been dealing with hormonal acne and endlessly searching for a solution. The appointment was good. My skin felt clean and smooth after. It ended up being very expensive because you need to buy a lot of products to follow the natural regimen provided. I was told I should follow up with pictures of my progress or issues. I started breaking out worse than before and I followed up twice with pictures. I received no solution or even acknowledgement of the issue the first time, and I didn't receive a response the second time. My skin has not gotten better, possibly worse. I felt very frustrated that they convinced me to buy hundreds of dollars of products and sold this to me as a supported investment in my skin. There was zero support or follow up. I was ready to commit to this plan and book frequent facial visits. Some of the product recommendations were great. I have bought a few of their products again from other vendors because it's hard to support a business that isn't returning the support. read more

I'm a Los Angeles esthetician with over 20 years experience, and this is my favorite place to refer my clients when they move or travel. My clients report back that they receive excellent treatments here, so I'm confident with my referrals. read more

Pacific Touch has become my favorite place in NYC to visit. For years, I've struggled with non-inflammatory acne. I did not know what the root cause was and I was using a multitude of popular skincare products that I now know were causing more harm than good. I I started going to Nichola for facials in early 2022 after I saw an instagram post about their acne safe facial. I loved that their philosophy was treating acne from the inside out, not just topically. From the start, she was so knowledgeable and provided me with a holistic approach for treating my acne that included not only acne safe product recommendations, but also lifestyle changes to aid my gut and hormonal health. When Bella joined Pacific Touch, I started going to her for facials as her journey with her own acne resonated. She learned the details of my skin quickly to continue providing thoughtful recommendations. Her facials feel heavenly and they are customized to what's going on with my skin currently. I always leave with a glow and that glow continues into the upcoming weeks. I recently got married and Bella helped get my skin into an amazing spot beforehand. I've never felt so confident with my skin! She's also just a lovely person in general. Although my skin is in a much better spot and my routine is very simple at this point, I will continue to go to Pacific Touch every couple of months because I simply love it there so much. The staff is so friendly and they always respond to my questions quickly when I reach out. If you are struggling with acne and are ready to commit to finding a solution, Pacific Touch and Bella can provide just that. read more

Nichola has the warmest aura and voice. You'll feel how passionate she is on what she's doing. I was planning to sleep while getting a facial, but it was just amazing talking to her about skin concerns. Love the smell of the place too!! read more

Over the past year, I've struggled greatly with my acne. It wasn't until I discovered Pacific Touch and starting having monthly sessions with Jeanine that I have seen an amazing shift. I've been seeing Jeanine for 5 months and my skin is truly changing for the better. Her energy is calming and her treatments are extremely effective. As someone who has tried everything for my acne, I've finally found a solution that is working for me. Going to Pacific Touch has been the best investment I've made this year and I can't wait to see how my skin looks in a few months from now. Thank you Jeanine for everything! read more

Being on the hunt for a great esthetician can be tedious. I remember coming across an IG post with Pacific Touch tagged. I decided to reach out due to the pictures of before and after for micro needling. I first needed to get a facial to have my skin assessed etc. The facial was great and I felt relaxed. I gain a lot of information on how to maintain great skin from the inside out. I already scheduled my next appointment. I am already counting down the weeks! Can't wait. read more

Before I met Nichola, I was in need of a miracle. Since I was 15 I had suffered from acne. Then two years ago, a series of nasty illnesses and multiple hospital visits seemed to kick my acne into high gear. For those of you who suffer from cystic acne, you understand how hard it is to step outside your door every day. You've figured out what light you look the worst in and you've become an expert in the art of hiding your face. You've maybe shied away from any dermatologist or esthetician because you're too afraid you could come out looking even worse. Nichola understands all of that. She stood out to me simply because she was the first one to listen, to relate. The first time she saw me she said she could see my clear skin glowing underneath and after a few short months and her 12 treatment program, she's pulled it out. Through gentle extractions, organic products, red light treatments, epic hugs, lifestyle coaching and adjustments, and yummy green juices, Nichola has helped me restore faith in myself. She's been by my side every step of the way, she's incredibly kind, and when I'm on her table I feel every worry melt away. Most importantly, she has my utmost trust -- something I never gave to any esthetician (before her, I had a series of botched facials/experiences). Thank you Nichola for healing me. It's difficult for me to do this as I've never done something like this but I've decided to share a before and after picture to show all you beautiful people what I looked like in April -- before pic still doesn't really do it justice. read more

So grateful to have found nichola! She's the best aesthetician/therapist in town! I used to be really insecure with my skin and She helped me figure it all out with diet, skin care regimen and all the good stuff. It's always a treat to see her, I'm in a state of total euphoria every time! Thank you nichola!! read more

I had my very first facial ever with Nichola this week, and I'm officially hooked! As others have noted, there's something really relaxing and comforting about being in her presence (she even gave me a big hug when I left!). She is obviously very knowledgable, and was happy to answer my questions and give advice throughout the treatment, so I felt like I learned a lot from the session, while still having plenty of time to just rest and relax during the facial. She followed up after the facial with additional information for me, which I really appreciated. Also liked that there was no pressure to buy additional products, etc. - her approach and customer service is top notch! read more

I am an incredibly low maintenance kind of girl, and happy to defer to professionals for things I know little to nothing about. So when I was a few months out from my wedding and realized my skin needed a little extra attention, I paid a visit to Nichola based on a friends recommendation. My first visit was was great, Nichola was soothing, the setting was comfortable and most importantly there were results! I booked a follow-up and soon became a devoted client. My skin has improved heaps, and my eyebrows (another service she offers) are consistently great. She is happy to give advice on skin, she doesn't push product (though I am now a Janesce user) and she is gentle and effective. Oh, and I have never walked out with overly red blotchy skin or had breakouts afterwards! read more

Crystal is fantastic! I was referred to her by my former aesthetician and had my first 75-minute facial about a week ago. I appreciate that as a first-time client the paperwork I filled out prior to the treatment was very comprehensive (includes nutrition, diet, family history and skincare issues). Crystal also spoke to me briefly before we got started to understand my current needs. Crystal is very friendly and welcoming and the treatment room is comfortable, clean and relaxing. Throughout my facial, Crystal explained each product she was using, its function and whether or not I would feel anything after it was applied. Extractions were thorough and the facial and scalp massages were relaxing. I'm fairly certain I fell asleep! When I walked out of the room, I felt rested and my skin was clear and rejuvenated. 5 days later my skin still looks fantastic. I've already booked my next appointment, this time for 90 minutes so I can add LED light. I can't say enough wonderful things and should add the front desk staff at Omni Wellness is great as well. They are patient and welcoming-overall a lovely experience. read more

Nichola from Pacific Touch is an amazing human being & healer. I swear her energy and hands are magical. I started struggling with painful persistent cystic acne all over my face at the start of the pandemic. After constantly being put on acne suppressors/medications, I was finding myself very frustrated with the lack of help & guidance I was getting. Thats when I found Pacific Touch on instagram and immediately reached out. Not only were they super responsive and understanding but they helped me virtually at the beginning of the pandemic. It has now been about a year and my skin has never looked or felt better & stronger. Most importantly I have learned to be patient with my body as it heals all while becoming more self-confident in my skin. At Pacific Touch NYC they help you clear up your skin and educate you on how to heal from within. read more

I recently invested in the full Breakout Bootcamp and it is one of the BEST investments I've ever made in MYSELF. I have experienced dramatic improvements in my skin, my confidence, and my wellbeing overall; to me, that's priceless. Working with Nichola has been such a blessing; she holds a space for her clients unlike any other. I appreciate her holistic approach to skincare and wellbeing. Not only did we address what was happening with my skin on the surface, but she worked with me and supported me through understanding what was happening beneath the surface - with my diet and emotions. Her approach is truly unique! With Nichola, I feel that I can be my most authentic self; I've both laughed and cried in her office, as well as experienced deep meditation and trance-like states when she works her magic! I always leave feeling refreshed, recharged, and more myself. Her care and dedication both in and out of sessions is remarkable. Receiving a facial from Nichola is far beyond average. Her intuitive senses allow her to give you recommendations for facial care and for overall self-care; some of my best journaling prompts have come from my work with Nichola! I feel truly grateful that my work with Nichola has resulted in a deeper connection with and love for myself! I would recommend her over and over again and have sent many of my closest friends to her. This is more than a facial, it's self-care and self-love! I am so excited to continue working with Nichola and know that I am uncovering my most radiant skin and most radiant self! read more

HUGE fan of Nicola! I just had my first ever facial last night and it was incredible. She's knowledgeable, gentle, and answered all of my questions so well. The facility is gorgeous and clean, and all of her products smelled delicious. I felt completely comfortable with her doing extractions, and she really erred on the conservative side, which i liked. She gave me a free sample of a product to use on my face afterward, and didn't push any products on me. My skin was PERFECT when i woke up this morning! I WILL be back! Very big fan of Nicola! read more

I booked a facial with Nichola very easily (using the online booker). The office manager called to confirm and helped me out. Nichola even texted me before the appointment to answer any questions and confirm as well. I went to the facial dealing with my own personal troubles at home and cried throughout almost the entire thing. Nichola was very professional and didn't pry at all. She made me feel warm and cared for throughout the whole thing, which was exactly what I needed. I was so impressed by how passionate Nichola is about her work - she looks at the entire individual and offers so many suggestions without pushing any products at all. She is kind and doesn't make you feel terrible about your large pores or scars. The extractions were gentle and she only extracted what was needed, which I appreciated. At the end of the session, she gave me a hug, water, and some free homemade energy snacks that were incredible to eat. All in all, I was having a terrible day and I'm just so grateful to have been blessed by this experience. My skin today feels clean and healthy without being overly dried, and I see it renewing itself now. I feel like I did something great for my body and mind. I will be going back monthly, for sure! read more

I have been a client of Pacific Touch for years but wanted to share my experience regarding this new service offered by Pacific Touch - Micro-needling. I struggled with acne when I was a teenager and in my early 20's. Nichola helped me thru the battle and my acne has completely cleared. But my acne scars made my skin uneven and I was always very conscious of the scars. Recently Nichola recommended this awesome treatment against acne scars and after just 2 sessions my skin looks fabulous!!!! I keep getting compliments from friends about how fabulous my skin looks! I can't wait to finish the treatment! read more

Where do I begin Nichola is fulfilling one of her divine purposes on this earth, she is in MASTERY of working with acne/problem skin I've come out on the other side of this journey and there's so many details that my words and a short review could not give justice and due credit to the service Nichola offers. I speak whole hearted and with truth when it comes to my experience at Pacific Touch and I hope that anyone reading this receives the comfort and confidence to trust Nichola. From the moment I found Nichola after years of trial and error and depression and all the things that come with breakouts there was a shift, I never had a doubt when I booked my first appointment, and when I met her I felt like I could finally breathe, she has helped transform my skin, my confidence and in turn my life, and I mean that very literally. She is gentle, caring, nurturing, holistic, intelligent, intuitive and is progressively perfecting her method. She knows skin, she knows what she's doing and she helps you address and identify the cause, she is the first aesthetician I know to do so and I've been to many in my journey. I saw results immediately after the first treatment the inflammation and pain on my skin subsided, after about 3 treatments I really started noticing results I didn't think were possible within that time span, by the time I was 6 treatments in I was obsessed with the new skin I would look in the mirror in disbelief We are now doing microneedling for the scars I HAD, we've done only 2 sessions and my skin is GLOWING and healed My advice to the person reading this who is suffering from skin issues is this Be patient and believe in your ability to heal, be kind to yourself and go see Nichola so you can see and experience healing and confidence for yourself Peace Here are my results over a series of monthly treatments read more

Pacific Touch is an urban oasis for distressed skin!! I started going to Pacific Touch about 2 months ago for my acne prone and sensitive skin. Prior to going I had been in the care of a sought after dermatologist for 7 months and absolutely nothing was working, in fact my skin was getting worse and worse. From the moment I walked in, Nichola put me at ease and put me on the path to beautiful, healthy skin. It's now been 2 months and my skin is feeling clear, radiant and nourished - worlds apart from what I walked in with. Thank you, thank you! Can't recommend enough. read more

If you're lost about your skin and need answers, Nichola is your lady! I had a virtual consult with Nichola a couple of weeks before my wedding when I was dealing with red, inflamed, broken out skin and she guided me in the right direction in such a calm and kind way! She helped me strip back my skincare routine to only the essentials. She so kindly sent me samples of the Rococo Botanicals skincare line that she uses in the treatment room which has been a complete game changer for my skin. I recently finally got to meet Nichola in person for a facial and it was phenomenal. I have very sensitive skin and usually leave facials red and blotchy, especially after extractions but after this facial my skin was calm, clear and so glowy! RUN to book with her! read more

Nichola is one of my favorite people. She really cared about the skin issues I was having and took time to understand every aspect of what I was doing with my health and my body. We dissected my routine and created a brand new one. Before I came to see her I was really in a bad place with my skin. I was paying hundreds of dollars for products, other facials etc. I had to wear a hat in Miami as my forehead was so bad. I don't like to wear a lot of makeup and I found myself having to put it on to go to the gym because I was too embarrassed of my skin. It was really taking a toll on how I felt about myself. Nichola changed my entire regime, gave me all new products and really encouraged me that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Once I started making her changes (including a green juice every day!) We TRULY noticed a huge difference. I say we because she was really my partner in this journey and I am so thankful that for her. She doesn't use any chemicals and has developed her own system of treating skin, no matter how dismal that skin may seem. Every problem that bothers you, she has a soulution for it. Even when my skin got MUCH better, we discussed next steps. But she was always encouraging me and telling me how great it looked- and it really does look great compared to where I was a few months ago. She's also just a lovely person and we laugh all the time about crazy things going on in the world and our lives. I really love her so so so much and know you will too. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to change the way their skin feels from the inside out. read more

I had an amazing 90 minute facial with Jeanine at Pacific Touch! She was gentle with my sensitive skin and knowledgeable on products, skin conditions and treatments. My skin feels and looks amazing. I can see my skin healing and is healthier than ever! read more

I have been meaning to write this review for a long time, as I've been going to Pacific Touch for awhile now. Nichola is the kindest person, who really cares about helping your skin. She goes above and beyond, even now during this pandemic. I haven't seen her in awhile because of it, but I know that I can reach out to her and she will still be there to help me, which means so much! I can't wait to finally have another facial with her again! read more

Love love love! Had the best deep cleansing facial today with Nichola. It was a rec from a friend and 2 blocks away from my work so I decided to check it out. My skin looks amazing! Nichola seriously has magic fingers. Not only was her facial so relaxing but it got the job done. She is so sweet and has the best vibe about her. Plus the price is great for Manhattan facials. read more

An AMAZING experience. I have been coming to Nichola at Pacific Touch since she brought her unique services and Pacific style to New York City in November, 2009. I have had facials regularly for the past twenty years and had never before received the treatment that I experience each time I'm with her. She is so knowledgeable and takes the time to inform you of what your skin needs to be nourished. Her treatments are not only relaxing, but healing and nurturing. And for NYC, her prices can't be beat for the time she spends with you" read more

Holistic facialist and skin goddess, Nichola, gave me the best facial I have ever had. It was soothing, nourishing, invigorating, fun, incredibly informative, and on top of all of that, I have had incredible results with her work and products. It's been almost a week since my facial and my skin is still glowing. She's one of the only people I've encountered in the beauty industry who can actually explain and teach you how to take care of your skin from the inside out. She also took the time to talk to me about my current skin products to see if they are the right fit for me and my goals for my skin. It was such a wonderful experience and I can't wait to go back! Do yourself, and your skin a giant favor and go see her asap! Enjoy! read more

Wow, I can't express enough gratitude to Nichola for her wisdom and talents in helping to treat my acne. As someone who has tried so many products to clear up my skin, this is the first time I found someone who can really help. I had just one 60 min facial session and I experienced deep relaxation, crazy improved clear skin, and a total shift in the way I try to treat acne. She had me fill out an in-depth first-time client questionnaire that gave so many new insights about potential links to my acne. She really took her time to listen to my concerns and try to find the root causes. She also didn't try to "push" any products. I just felt a deep sense of compassion from her and she authentically wants to help you love the skin you're in! I'm excited to sign up for her mini-breakout boot camp program! read more

I have been going to Omni Wellness for a while, and saw Nicholas card in the office and decided to give her a try and treat myself to a facial since i have incredibly dry skin. I am so glad that I did. There is something innately calming about being in Nicholas presence. She makes you feel comfortable and really pays attention to exactly what you are looking to get out of your facial. The products that she uses smell devine! I left the facial feeling fabulous and glowing the way a woman should! I am someone who likes to talk while getting treatments and she was more than happy to obligue with all my questions about skincare. She is extremely knowledgable! I highly recommend coming here for a day of pampering or if you have skin issues. I trust her immensely with my skin! read more

I've suffered from acne since around age 12 and have tried every product you can imagine. A few years ago I was recommended to Nichola at Pacific Touch by my acupuncturist. I'd never had a facial before and was blown away with how wonderful it was! Nichola is so sweet and warm. She uses all natural products which is huge for me. Everything is incredibly gentle. She even talked me into getting a facial peel - which I'd been terrified of. I was willing to try it because I knew she had my best interest at heart and wouldn't suggest some treatment just to make more money! You can tell she takes her clients skin personally and works to achieve amazing results. She also sent me additional info on what foods I should be eating to improve my skin and is easily reachable if you have a question. Online appointment scheduling is also super east. I'd absolutely recommend her to anyone! read more

Nichola at Pacific Touch is AMAZING! she is a true healer. I see Nichola for facials and eyebrow waxing. Every time I leave her office I feel like I just spent time with a great friend that heals. She really understands how the body works and will work with you to balance your skin on a deep level. My eyebrows have also been completely transformed by Nichola they went from being little and sparse oddly shaped things to lovely full and beautifully shaped. Nichola really cares and is very present with you when you are in her care, she is a gifted healer and I am honored to be in her care. read more

Finding a good spot for a facial is always pretty tricky. Yelp brought me and I could not have been happier. Nichola is wonderful. She is very friendly and learned me a lot about my skin. Not only does my skin look better now (she gave me a sample of a cream that actually works!), I also really enjoyed the treatment. The personnel at Omni Welness are so helpful. A little piece of heaven in NY! Too bad that I never received the email with some tailored tips as promised.. read more

I've ben getting a facial every month for the past year and one day I had to cancel my appointment with the usual lady I was seeing and I couldn't reschedule. I decided to try Pacific Touch and have been seeing Crystal for the past 3 months. My face has never looked better! She is so meticulous with her work and she is always working on your face. For example, while your face is under the steam she is massaging your face with gentle products and even when your face is under LED lights she gives you a scalp massage too. She is very thorough with her extractions which I appreciate. The glow from one of her facials lasts all month and I get so many compliments on my complexion. Crystal is very kind and welcoming and makes sure your comfortable the whole time. I look forward to getting facials from her because not only do you feel relaxed your face comes out amazing. read more

This esthetician is one of the best with acne . She doesn't chastise you or what you were using she's honest with you on how long this will take to clear. Like the other population I went to dermatologist they don't know healthy skin they are just going off of the textbook . I love how how Nichola is in communication with you as well checking in to see what's working what's not I have had one treatment but before I saw her my face was full of pustules if you have acne please go see her she's so nice amazing and will guide you on what's correct for your skin thanks so much looking forward to more treatments . read more

Nichola is the best! She has miraculously changed my skin in 6 weeks! I have suffered with cystic acne on my back since I was a teenager. Her compassion and knowledge dramatically improved my skin, using all natural products. I have also had facials for combination/oily skin, and had the typical T-zone break-outs which have now disappeared. I highly recommend her techniques, products, and services. read more

Crystal and Nicola are absolutely fabulous. I wrote a review last year, but felt the need to write another one because I have seeing Crystal on a regular basis and she is so accomodating and friendly. I got a facial on Monday and then had a minor break out after and she allowed me to come in a few days after for more extractions and LED light at no charge. They really care about their clients and the customer service is amazing. I will continue to come back here. read more

Nichola is AMAZING!!! I've been going to her for years and her facials are pure bliss. She is a ray of sunshine to be around and true healing goddess. I recently had a series of facials done to prepare for my wedding and it was a wonderful experience. First, we did a cleansing facial that included, gentle enzymatic exfoliation, extractions, toning, deep penetrating serums picked for my skin type, hydrating mask that smells amazing and LED light. A few days before I left for my wedding in California Nichola gave me the Microcurrent therapy facial and it was Incredible! so relaxing! and I left with toned, dewy, glowy skin that lasted for the big day. Nichola sent me off with a bag of creams and masks to use the days leading up to the wedding as well as some tips in the case of breakout that I, fortunately, didn't have to use! My skin looked amazing and I am so grateful for Nicholas care leading up to our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend seeing Nichola before your wedding or special event. read more

Going to Nicola is the best and kindest thing you can ever for your money maker. Her facial room is a mini zen palace, and in there she lulls you in a balmy trance while giving you the best facial massage of your life. So incredibly dedicated to her clients and not at all a product pusher, she is always thinking on how best to help your skin unfold to it's full glowy expanse. I started going to her when I developed allergies for the first time last year when the meds, incessant sneezing, parade of tissues had left my face a parched, irritated mess. A year later through a combination of her curated products recommendations, magic hands, and educating me how to better take care of my skin, my skin is healthy and moisturized even through the height of spring. So thankful to have her in my life and she's worth every penny. read more
