This is my experience at this office. I arrived five minutes before my appointment. It was the receptionist and my self at the front office. The nurse checks in with the receptionist and sees me there and disappears. As I'm walking around the office observing the products they offer I noticed the receptionist was into her cell phones....about 15 minutes later the nurse calls my name and asks me if I filled out the paperwork. The receptionist runs towards the nurse and says no she hasn't. The nurse asks the receptionist if she is alone. The receptionist responds and says yes so and so is out of the office today. Here is where I want to say, "you have been busy on your phone". Finally I'm with the nurse and she apologized because she "didn't realize" It was me there for my scheduled appointment. I will not return to this office. This is an unorganized office and unprofessional in terms of not paying attention to providing the paperwork necessary for my care because staff is distracted by the cell phone. Again, this is what I experienced but I'm sure others may say the opposite. Wishing this practice future success. read more

I wouldn't recommend this place for Botox treatment. Go somewhere else where they treat you with respect and appreciate your business. They act like they are doing you a favor . :( read more

Been coming here to get my lips done with Melissa. One day I made the mistake of going with Shelby because Melissa was fully booked and I disliked the way my lips looked and I had to go back to get them dissolved. Thankfully, Melissa was kind enough to fix my lips. I would highly recommend Melissa, she's highly qualified, and is known for her meticulous attention to detail! read more

I had went in for a consultation and was told I needed to pay $100 for my deposit to go towards my appointment which I did. So I proceeded to make an appointment for a laser treatment and when it came to the day of my appt they had told me there was no $100 deposit in my account. I asked to speak with the manager and she told me there was nothing she can do since I didn't have proof since I wasn't given a receipt to begin with which is so unprofessional it's their job to give a receipt and keep everything neat and on file. Worst place ever !!! They pretty much stole my money. read more

I received my IV revitalessence drip here an it's a powerful amazing treatment.. only takes about 30 min and you feel So energized afterwards... the staff are super friendly and accommodating. Everything is clean and the have the most up to date equipment. Not only do they offer Botox and fillers but laser treatments as well! Like halo, tattoo removals and hair removals. I highly recommend revitalessence for all your beautification needs! read more

I noticed Botox/fillers last longer when I don't see Melissa... There has been two other ladies I saw and they took their time, the injections lasted longer while inside my skin. Plus, the effect lasted long too. Last few apt with Melissa I didn't heard/feel the usual cracking noise/sensation while injecting the Botox. Not sure if I'm being cheated with the product quantity... read more

Buyer beware. Just experienced a bait and switch here. I was told one price over the phone. I got in there, they numbed me up and everything, and then told me it was almost double the price. They should have honored the price I was quoted, but completely disregarded that fact. Needless to say, I walked out. Lost my business altogether, as I just had botox a couple of months ago there. Clearly not smart.... read more

This review is well overdue, about 5 months ago I got my first Botox treatment and lips done at this office. I'm so glad I had my treatments done here, they didn't make me look like one of those girls that you see and can tell they had a lil too much Botox and fillers injected in their faces, where it doesn't look as natural. My forehead was smooth from the Botox treatment and my lips was nicely enhanced to look natural not like a duck or a fish, my worst fear It's been 5 months and my Botox is still lasting They also have an office in Monterey, which makes it easier for me read more

Fast and professional with their services. My first time getting a tattoo removal of a tattoo and my face, next to my eye, and they did an excellent job would recommend for tattoo removal every time anybody asks now. Best part about it is that no one knows I had a face tattoo and I don't have to worry about covering it up anymore to hide it. read more

I had my first time treatment done several days ago at the Monterey Office--Revitalessence. The staff are warm and welcoming beginning with my first call. Shauna is the RN Aesthetic Nurse who performed her magic. The experience was so much better than expected. She's clearly gifted with an eye for perfection while having a very gentle touch. I highly recommend the practice and especially Shauna, for those fine tune-ups! read more

I went here because they were having the $10 per unit botox if you donated to a non-profit like SPCA. Normally I get 40 units in the forehead, the glabella (between the brows) AND crow's feet. Here I was told that I needed 40 units for the forehead and between the brows, crow's feet was going to be additional. I agreed to just do the forehead and glabella since I was already there and paid the $400. Four weeks later the botox effect was gone. I called to let them know and set-up the appointment . When I get there they want to charge another 20 units. The lady who did it first (Melissa) was not there, she was sick with Covid and the office manager couldn't authorize to get it for free. She could only give me a $100 discount but I had to pay the rest. I told her that I didn't think it was right, that maybe the product they used on me wasn't botox. She said that if it wasn't good product other people would've had complained. I told her that I recommended two people and it didn't work on them either. She tried to give an attitude and said that if I wanted it I had to pay again. This is a place I thought I could trust, but I am not going to be wasting my money and be given my time and risking my health if they are not using good products. read more

Staff super friendly and professional. Did a great job with my procedure. Family members have been there and all feel the same way.

Today was my second visit for laser tattoo removal. My first visit I was offered a patch that helps remove more ink, it's an extra charge and they said using it would make it more likely that I wouldn't have to return for a second treatment. Today I wasn't offered the patch. I heard a bunch of things unwrapping but j figured it was cause or necessities for the laser treatment. I was quoted $100 more my tattoo removal and when I got to the front desk I was told my total was $175. I asked why and they told me it was because of the patch. The lady at the front desk told me I could talk to her manager and her manager proceeded to tell me "you saw her open the patch and you had it last time and you didn't tell her anything?" Another employer who was standing behind watching then told me "you get the same treatments every time unless you say otherwise". I was never told once I used this patch I'd need it for all treatments. I told the manager "I'm going to be charged for a service I didn't ask for?" And she said YES. I won't be back here. Please know that you should know what products they are opening during your treatment and any extras you purchase for your first treatment will be considered your wishes for the next. The manager was extremely rude and aggressive. What's the point of talking to a manager if she's going to chew your head off? So unprofessional. , read more

Really nice when i went to my consultation. Want to get tattoo removal and very confident in them just pricey.

What an amazing place! The office is amazing and the entire staff is friendly and professional. I've had several procedures done and couldn't be happier with the results. Melissa and Angelica are amazing at what they do! Sara Marinelli, the patient coordinator is amazing at her job and I couldn't ask for better! read more

I had a great experience today in the Monterey office they were so nice and the girl at the desk was super accommodating I highly recommend this office read more

The surgeon was professional and explained everything in a good manner. The ladies at the front desk we're not very welcoming.
