But honestly, it turned out to be fantastic and one of the best experiences I've ever had. Ling started with a scalp analysis to check the condition of my scalp before and after the treatment, and the improvement was amazing. I chose the stress head spa treatment, and it was incredibly detailed and deeply relaxing. Joann performed my service, and she was absolutely wonderful--my scalp felt fresh and my hair felt so smooth afterward, and the tonics and products she used smelled incredible and felt even better. Beyond the scalp treatment, she also included a neck and back massage along with some stretching, which was far more than I expected. My mom had a facial with Lily, and we both also got massages from Ling--she was absolutely thrilled with her experience. I can't wait to book my next session. The environment was peaceful, clean, and welcoming. The service was immaculate, and their equipment is modern and top-of-the-line. If you're looking for a truly relaxing and high-quality experience, this is definitely the place to go!

The products they use smell divine while being gentle on the skin. Conveniently located with tons of parking. I've been twice for a scalp massage. Absolutely amazing. My hair felt so soft and my scalp was very happy. They even gave me some tips on how to take care of my scalp in the future. This time I went for a 45 min massage and 45 min facial. I will definitely be back. My face is glowing and the knots in my neck are gone. Great spot for self-care or as a gift.

I can't believe it took me this long to write a review, but I just saw Patty again for probably the…read more20th time at least, and realized I hadn't done one yet. Patty is so sweet and knowledgeable, and I always look forward to my monthly facial with her. She knows my skin and keeps track of things she has tried and what I like. She never pushes any products unless I ask her about something first. When I first met her she offered for me to bring the products I was using so she could look at the ingredients, and tell me if there was anything that might not be good for my skin type. My skin has definitely improved since i started seeing her, and it always looks amazing after a visit. She uses Yonka products mostly, but sometimes a few others. I don't want anything invasive and have sensitive skin, so I have been sticking to dermaplaning and microderm during my visits. I will sometimes tell her which I prefer that day, or she'll tell me which one she thinks would be better for that session. She not only works on your face but also gives you a quick shoulder, arm and hand massage. Her prices are very reasonable, especially compared to some other places, and each session lasts around an hour. She's the only one that is in her suite, and it's just her, so it's quiet and relaxing with no other people talking or making noise. I've referred multiple people to her and they are always happy. I can't recommend her enough!

I was left completely gooey and needed to wash my face, neck, and shoulders when I got home. A hot towel wipe down would've been nice. I agree with another reviewer that this is not a relaxing facial. Sabine is witty and funny but will talk the entire time about how great she is at waxing, skincare, etc. It was slightly offputting. I am absolutely furious with my eyebrow wax. I declined multiple times because I prefer to do my own. She insisted she would not change the shape and would just clean up. My eyebrows are completely ruined. She overly thinned them, shortened them, they're different lengths from the center, reduced my arch, and have completely different angles. After crying most of yesterday because it's my face, I'm just livid every time I look in the mirror. I'm mostly angry at myself for letting her pressure me. I'm just hoping that they grow back nicely and not patchy so I can fix them. Now, I have to deal with months of the awkward growing out phase if they grow back properly with any luck.

Update 4/25/26: I truly cannot say enough good things about Katie Martin. She is not only…read moreincredibly sweet and warm, but also highly skilled, detail oriented, and professional. From the moment I met her, she made me feel so comfortable and completely taken care of. I have seen her for Dysport and RF Microneedling (twice). She explains everything clearly, answers every question, gives you clear written after care instructions and you can just tell she genuinely cares about her patients and their results. What I appreciate most is how much she prioritizes safety. I've had to rebook appointments more than once, because I still had remnants of spray tan on my face and another time because of my tretinoin use. At the time it felt like a bummer, but it showed me how much she truly puts her patients first and will never cut corners. That level of integrity is rare and so appreciated. I trust her completely with my skin, I love my results afterwards and just highly recommend Katie. I also want to add an additional note about the sweet girls who also do my check-in/out. They are super friendly, so genuine and very helpful. I like to going and always seeing their familiar faces. Next time I'll remember to get their names.

I have been a customer for years, have had several sessions and have always had a great experience. The nurses are super nice (especially Krysten!!), the clinic is very clean & the results are worth your money. Usually I have nothing bad to say, except I tried to call them through phone to reschedule my appointment in which I spoke with Nicole at this Escondido location who came off very rude, sarcastic and standoffish. I usually have a full body session in which it came to my attention that they are no longer allowed to do this. Usually I do up upper body and then they let the machine cool down for a bit and then do lower. If this is an issue then I don't understand why my last 6 sessions has been scheduled like this. I totally understand Nicole if you can't do this, and I don't want you to get in trouble but the customer service and sarcasm is completely unprofessional and makes me not want to come back as a loyal customer.

I'm not sure how long it lasts- online it says $120 for first time clients (a $15 discount than the honest essential facial) so make sure you book asap to get this price. I was greeted by the cutest lady at the front desk, (wish I remembered her name-she was also the person I spoke to on the phone) and she just broke down everything for me from the expectations, the machine, the masks, massages, etc. I have been burned in the past getting a facial so I was skeptical but I truly felt so comfortable after speaking with her. My appointment with Alicia who was wonderful! this was my first time going and she was very informative and kind. I told her my issues with hydration, dry skin, and bumpy patches. she suggested the oxygen trifecta that came with a jelly mask. I'm not sure the oxygen did much to my skin so I'm not sure the extra $40 was worth it but the jelly mask definitely felt so good and I enjoyed that. I know you can't expect amazing results after going just one time so I think in a month or so, I will book another facial. Stay tuned.
