I'm a longtime MAC…read moreCosmetics fan, especially Studio Fix, but lately I've noticed my complexion has been changing with the summer warmth, sun, and dryness, and my usual foundation just wasn't blending the way I wanted. So I decided to stop in and see what other options were available. While I was browsing the different shades, Elsa asked if I needed help. I explained what I was looking for, and she was so sweet and patient. She grabbed a sponge, tried about three shades with me, and found one that was PERFECT! It blended so naturally that you could barely tell I had anything on--which is exactly what I want. I don't like heavy makeup; just enough coverage to give me that natural glow. If you know, you know, ladies! I also loved that I could browse without feeling followed around the store. Everything was clean, organized, open, and easy to explore, from cosmetics and skincare to perfumes and more. I was especially impressed that the makeup line I was considering was very competitive with MAC. I didn't purchase anything that day because, honestly, I wanted more than a few things and decided to come back later as my husband walking in from Trader Joe's next door which ended my shopping trip a little sooner than planned!

I came into Ulta looking for help with both my skincare and haircare, and Luis was absolutely…read moreamazing. He was incredibly helpful, understanding, and made me feel comfortable talking about the concerns I've been having. I really appreciated the time he took to listen and help me find what I needed. Unfortunately, my experience with one of his female colleagues was the complete opposite. While I was explaining some of my skincare concerns, she repeatedly gave me very disrespectful and judgmental looks. It made me feel extremely uncomfortable and even more insecure about concerns I was already self-conscious about. I work with people every day who have different health concerns and insecurities, and I would never make someone feel judged, embarrassed, or disgusted with themselves simply by the way I looked at them. When someone comes into a beauty store asking for help with something they may already feel insecure about, they should be treated with kindness and professionalism--not made to feel worse about themselves. Luis deserves recognition for how kind, patient, and professional he was. However, I really hope management addresses the behavior of employees who make customers feel unwelcome or judged. It only takes one negative interaction to make someone not want to return to a store, regardless of how wonderful another employee may have been.

Let me first start out with I was originally a patient of Dr. Pousti. I cannot believe Dr. Pousti…read moresold his clientelle to Dr. Chou. I'm embarrassed to say I had 5 procedures with Dr. Chou in a matter of 1 yr 1/2 time span and with every procedure there was complications after. It seems like he was initially trying to help but I honestly don't think he's capable of good results. In March of 2022 my 1st surgery with Dr. Chou I developed a capsular contracture within a month. June of 2022 under local did a steroid shot and scrapped scar tissue, this did nothing. Felt like my boob went even higher after that. 2nd surgery was November 2022 changed out right breast implant only, did steroid shot along with a mesh fish skin internal bra and stem cell injection. My boob bottomed out almost immediately afterward. So I went from one boob normal and the other boob really high to super low. I tried to disguise my unevenness for over a year. I thought my body was rejecting the implant so I chose to explant. April 2023 was my explant with capsulectomy. He could not do a lift at the time because my skin was so thin, creapy and I was left with big creases in my flat chest (could fit three fingers inside crease of my boob) I was completely devastated. In July 2023 my 4th surgery I had a lift with fat transfer and I specifically said if I do lipo I want to do the J Plasma type lipo. I don't find out until a week later they he did regular lipo because he said my skin was tighting that I didn't need it. It was very disturbing that a Dr. made a decision with out my consent while I was under. He could have called my husband but didn't. He did end up reimbursing me back for the J Plasma upgrade. After this surgery my breasts were still deformed and asymmetric. None of the fat from the fat transfer stayed. I had what felt like a stone of scar tissue on right boob which was a sermona. During this time these problems really affected my self confidence. For 2 years it was not a good outcome and felt like I was still masking the problem. During the time from my very 1st surgery to my last with Dr Chou I went in prob over 80 times to get ultrasound treatments on boob and I have to say the only thing good about this office is that the girls are nice. I decided not to give up on myself and explore other doctors after all the procedures with Dr. Chou. I didn't want one doctors failure to discourage me. I got another fat transfer in April 2024 with a new Doctor and now my boobs are even with no problems. Turns out I still had my capsules in my boobs which I thought they were taken out with my April 2023 explant ( I requested a few times after explant to see pictures and never recieved) and also had a detached pec muscle. My new dr said that as soon as he took capsules out my boobs released and dead fat from my previous fat transfer was stuck to the capsules along with a bunch of blue sutchers (not dissolvable) left inside of me. I do not recommend Dr. Chou.

I saw Dr. Chao for an explant & lift about 6 months ago and it had to have been one of the best…read moredecisions of my life. A little backstory - I had breast implants for about 12 years and truthfully after year 5 or so I started to feel they didn't look good, had gotten bigger, were not lifted anymore and just didn't suit my small frame. I went back to my original plastic surgeon about 2 years ago and told him I hated my breasts and was considering just removing them. He convinced me that all I needed was a lift and we could put a new implant in but that it wouldn't look good if I removed the implant entirely. So of course, I was convinced and went through with the surgery hoping and praying I'd love my new (smaller) breasts. Fast forward a few months, my breasts looked the EXACT same. They didn't look any smaller, the lift had barely done much and I just internally felt so defeated and depressed about it. I kept trying to convince myself this is just the body I have to deal with now but ultimately I was so unhappy. About 7 months ago, I researched new surgeons and found Dr. Chao. Upon meeting with him he actually LISTENED to what I had been through & what I actually wanted. He asked me to show him images of what I physically wanted my breasts to look like and that was that of a small B cup. He told me he completely understood and he WOULD get me to look exactly like my inspo photos. I felt so relieved and excited. He ended up removing the implants, capsule & did a lift. Immediately coming out of the surgery I remember waking up, looking down and terrified that it would look the same. When I looked down this time although swollen post surgery, I could have jumped with joy because they were significantly smaller. I couldn't believe it. Fast forward 6 months I now have the EXACT breasts I wanted - a small B cup. The breasts are actually lifted this time and look BETTER than when I had implants although the previous surgeon told me they would never look good. Long story short - I am so grateful for Dr. Chao who actually LISTENED to me and gave me exactly what I wanted. I've truly never been happier in my skin.

Ely took her time asking what I was looking for, and when I explained, she not only introduced me to the newest scents but also included my sons by showing them some of the men's options. I really appreciated how she explained the current promotions in a way that made it easy for all of us to benefit. I also had a reward to use and picked up a Brazil travel-size spray mist--such a good choice! While they didn't have the Peach Blossom in a gift set just yet (I'm still holding out until closer to May 10 ), the visit still gave me great ideas not just for myself, but for my mom too. I love that that Bath & Body Works stores have fragrances, lotions, car fresheners, skin oils, candles, linen fresheners etc. Another standout was Susie, the store manager, who was just as sweet and helpful. Neither Ely nor Susie made me feel pressured to buy anything that day. In fact, they even took the time to show me how to navigate the app so I could have my mom's gift shipped to a location near her--now that's customer service!
