Front desk mentioned a deposit was needed and I was happy to pay that, but then she said that I might as well pay the full amount while I'm there. So I paid the full amount for the service. Something came up the next day and it wouldn't have been worth injecting a zit days later. So I called to cancel and am then told they couldn't refund me. I can still come in and get the service done any time, but since it was for a one time acne lesion, I won't really be needing it. Plus I work at a nearby med spa and was only in the area. It would have been nice if someone told me upfront that if I cancelled, my money would be kept. Especially because I understand that being the case for the deposit, but I was encouraged to pay the full amount and all of it was kept. Of course I couldn't dispute the charge because it's in their fine print... A little upfront honesty and clarity would have gone a long way though.

I feel like because you're getting a discount for the service they give you the worst service imaginable . I came in today , and immediately the front desk was trying to have me purchase additional extractions or a different type of facial that is more expensive , she said " you have acne this facial isn't suited for you" I told her kindly I actually don't have acne , I have a dermatologist and yes I do have acne scars but I have not a single active pimple or skin that needed many extractions . She said they would only do extractions on my nose and lips and I said that was perfect for me . They take me to the room and leave the room so I can change out of my shirt . MIND YOU THIS IS A 60 MINUTE FACIAL . I paid for a 60 minute facial which means I expect 60 mins worth of service . It took her 5 minutes to come back to the room . There was no sink for her to wash her hands and I didn't see her put on hand sanitizer . She washed my face and then applied an exfoliator that felt like tree hut scrub . She then left the room for 10 more minutes at this point we have only gotten to exfoliation and she already hasn't been on the room for 15 minutes ..... she comes back and puts this ultrasonic device that is usually used for extractions , she put no pressure and no extractions nor dead skin was taken off . She then gives me the shittiest facial massage . No technique , no pressure , just slathering thick cream on my face this goes on for about 10 minutes and then she slathers a mask on me and leaves for the rest of the appointment . I laid there for 15-20 mins just wondering where she left . Usually during a mask , estheticians will find something to do like a scalp massage or anything really that is providing a service in that downtime . She comes back takes off the mask and this point I'm really upset . I try to walk out the door , and the front desk harassed me about a tip I told her it was the worse facial I have ever received I will definitely not be tipping . Not only am I going to dispute this with my bank but I am absolutely reporting this place to the board of Estheticians. There is no way this lady went though any formal training . You guys should be ashamed of yourselves for this SCAM . You should t have to scam people out of money . Definitely did not receive the service i paid for .

I tried friends' recommendations in Beverly Hills, but a ritzy zip code doesn't guarantee technical expertise. I found a trusted resource at Skin 365 in Torrance. They have won my heart and more than a decade of loyalty. From the welcoming and uber-efficient Brandy at the front desk to the superior skills of nurses Elizabeth and JoLyn, Skin 365 is luminescent in the world of skincare. Not only do they make you feel comfortable and relaxed, but you leave feeling thoroughly pampered and cared for. Elizabeth always takes time to customize a treatment plan based on my goals - and most importantly, my budget. She is exceptionally knowledgeable on new and existing products and procedures, continually educating herself in the latest skincare techniques. She knows exactly which products would be best for me, and deploys her needles with a gentle and intuitive touch that instills confidence. The Skin 365 team is exceptional. Their product recommendations are thoughtful and on point. Brandy always takes care of the things I routinely forget, like helping me keep track of my product Loyalty Points, and validating my parking stub before the elevator doors close. Those customer experience touch points make a difference. So, you can stop furrowing your brow. If you seek a trusted team of specialists who truly know skin and care deeply about clients as individuals, look no further.

What did I Love Most about this place and my facial experience? Um, Everything! I feel like I have a new face. I loved my old one, but I wanted to glow honey, and yes I did. I was ready for my "After Close-Up." I love Kay the Magnificent! She was gentle and kept me calm, even through the extraction period... I want that youthful glow, but down 1 notch please. :) I felt comfy and welcomed because she knew what she was doing. That helps! All of the staff members are super friendly, the products are top quality and they have so much to offer for all skin types. I felt that the nurses knew exactly what I needed and I felt completely refreshed. The environment is calm, it is very clean and you feel at home. All services were thoroughly explained. I had questions about my skin and which products/services were necessary (or not) and they gave me honest, straightforward answers. All hail the Queen! Queenie is amazing and gave me a skin consultation with recommendations with no pressure. QD Skinnovations is Highly Recommended for your self-care skin needs. I am ready to try more services. You can leave here feeling like a Hollywood Movie Star, right in beautiful Torrance, California. Tell them Kellie K. sent you. read more
