I had such a lovely experience getting coolsculpting done at Finesse! Anne was my clinician and she…read morewas very kind, easy to talk to, and really spent the time to get to know what my goals were. I still have a few more weeks until my full results set in, but I'm already very happy with the outcome! I couldn't recommend Finesse more!

TL;DR: I spent over $17,500 at Finesse for liposuction that completely failed--and was left with…read moresevere scarring and zero results. I had an unsuccessful liposuction procedure with Dr. Shektman at Finesse. During my initial consultation, their salesperson, Kim, assured me that the procedure would dramatically improve my postpartum body. Based on these claims, I spent more than $17,500--with no positive outcome whatsoever. After the surgery clearly failed (which Kim, Joanna, and Dr. Shektman all acknowledged), they offered me a Morpheus8 treatment, claiming it could correct the skin folding caused by the liposuction. They said they'd "only" charge me an additional $500. I agreed, hoping to improve some of the damage done by lipo. That treatment was performed by their esthetician, Rachel--and it made things significantly worse. Six months later, my abdomen is still covered in severe scarring (see pics). When I sought help, they insisted I come in for a five-minute evaluation by their nurse, Joanna, and esthetician, Rachel--neither of whom has the medical expertise to handle the kind of deep tissue scarring I experienced. Dr. Shektman's only recommendation was hydrocortisone, which is wildly inappropriate for subdermal scarring caused by a failed RF microneedling procedure. The bottom line is: I'm not wasting more time listening to cosmetic "professionals" who are clearly out of their depth and caused the damage in the first place. I've waited nearly a year to write this review, hoping that someone at Finesse--Dr. Shektman, Kim, anyone--would take responsibility and at least offer a partial refund. That never happened. I was misled about what results I could expect, and I now have permanent scarring and an even greater financial and emotional burden. I've since seen two board-certified dermatologists and spent even more money trying to fix the damage done by Dr. Shektman and Rachel. I feel betrayed, taken advantage of, and deeply disappointed. Please--do not trust this place. They'll say whatever they need to say to close the sale, but once you've paid and signed away your rights, you're on your own. The results don't matter to them. Your health and satisfaction don't matter to them. Ironically, I've had substantially better results using Semaglutide (Ozempic), which cost $400--not $17,500--and helped me lose 30 pounds in 5 months. No scarring. No lies. No emotional trauma. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone.

I have very thin hair that has a mind of its own and have great difficulty getting a good cut. A…read morefriend recommended Hanh Ivas to me and I thought I would give her a try since I'm usually disappointed with my haircuts. Armed with some pictures on my phone, I showed Hanh basically what I wanted for a cut. She listened carefully and looked at what I had brought. She is truly an artist! After explaining why some of the cuts I liked would not work with my fine hair, she asked me about the approximate length I wanted and other specifics. At this point, I felt very comfortable leaving the decision in her hands. I am SO glad I did. Unquestionably, this was the BEST haircut I've ever had. She was able somehow to make my hair look more voluminous even without product. This is why I call her an artist. Hanh recommended some products to me and I have been able to recreate the look on my own with the products. If I could give her 10 stars I would!! I tried several stylists since I had moved from the area. My thin lifeless hair looked thin and lifeless. I was so excited to find Hanh again! She took the mess the other stylists had made and transformed my hair, once again, to look fuller and have no cowlicks sticking up all over the place! It's over an hour drive to get to her, but it's what you find at the end of the drive that counts! The pot of gold at the end of the rainbow! She's THE best!

I just have to give a huge shout out to Gwen who absolutely saved the day! I came in super…read morevulnerable, nervous, and completely defeated after receiving a horrible haircut from another salon. She validated why I was upset, listened to exactly what I wanted, gave amazing advice, and used her expertise to make my hair appear healthier, fuller, and beautifully and effortlessly blended the choppy layers I was given previously. She was so gentle and calm with her approach and went slow with me which was exactly what I needed. I just can't thank her enough.

It is very easy to give a 5 Star Reviews to Restorative Massages and Wellness, LLC. thanks to two…read moreoutstanding massage therapists, Steve and Sharmese. Steve is fantastic! Best massage I have ever had and I highly recommend to everyone! Steve is clearly #1, and Sharmese is a close second. Both Steve and Sharmese are very experienced and spend the time with you to understand any issues before you get a massage. They are truly amazing! The space is crystal clean, welcoming, and comfortable and every precaution taken. I have never had any issue about safety. Both Steve and Sharmese's approach is warm, kind, and compassionate and they take the time and each has extensive expertise to understand and meet each client's needs and goals. The massage is always outstanding ... their skill is incredible! It was immensely therapeutic for me as it helped me greatly reduce my stress and relax deeply, as well as decrease my neck and back pain and increase my flexibility. I would strongly recommend both Steve and Sharmese at Restorative Massage and Wellness. Steve is a thoughtful, dedicated therapist that provides personalized treatment to his clients. He draws from a wealth of knowledge and experience along with completing the full doctorate program in physical therapy so Steve is beyond masseuse trained. I would highly recommend Steve to friends and family. I am regularly booked with Steve and find out well in advance if he is on vacation so I can book Sharmese as a backup. The desk staff is also excellent in working to get you in, if there are no openings, and you are waiting for a cancellation. True professional staff all around! I met Isaac my first time here who is the owner and a licensed trained masseuse too. Isaac treats the staff professionally because he truly understands what it takes to be #1 in this field! Parking on Washington Street is free, and if you cannot find a space, the side street has plenty of spaces as a backup.

Came back after awhile to work with Wiallace as Isaac has always been my go to. He was pleasant and…read morekept checking in on the pressure during massage. He incorporated stretching techniques as well deep tissue pressure. I'm sore but in a good way as I needed to release tension in body and back (I work as an event producer, I'm a dancer and work out a lot)! Seeing him next week to continue my bodywork.
