This review is based on a laser hair removal treatment I received several years ago. Looking back, I realize how poorly I was treated by one staff member. For clarity, review is not about Jessica. I originally tried to book with her, but my appointment was instead handled by an older Korean woman who appears to be the owner. This owner kept pushing my boundaries and overtime, her behavior became passive-aggressive and unprofessional. For example, I felt pressured to purchase a Brazilian laser hair removal package and when I declined, she made a comment along the lines of "people would find it ugly if you didn't," which I found completely inappropriate. On another occasion, she brought in another customer or acquaintance during my appointment. I overheard the person ask (in Korean) why she was working on a Saturday, to which she responded "because of this girl," as though I were an inconvenience forcing her to be there. This made me uncomfortable and felt very unprofessional. Just because I prefer speaking in English doesn't mean I understand what you're saying! At the time I didn't speak up, partly because she was older and appeared to be the owner of the business. But looking back, I regret not addressing it sooner. I also noticed another reviewer described a very similar negative experience, so this clearly wasn't a one-off situation. Again, this review is not about Jessica. However, if you're a first-time Korean-American customer like me and you're given the option to book with the older Korean woman, I honestly wouldn't recommend setting up the appointment at all. It's not worth it. read more

I'm so grateful to have found Jessica after floundering a bit in the wake of my long time esthetician's retirement. My bar is so high, and I have no tolerance for Manhattan hubris or Manhattan pricing. The facility is spotless and private. The treatments and modalities are all top of the line. The pricing is fair. The parking is easy. And the results speak for themselves. I gatekeep most things, and it's already hard enough to book into an appointment here, but if you really care about efficacy and value, you're home. Just a 10/10 experience every time. read more

Jessica is one of the best esthetician I've been with! She personalizes each facial depending on the condition of your skin when you walk in and explains each step of the procedure and the various machines and tools throughout the appointment. So sweet and knowledgeable! After just two sessions, my skin is looking brighter and better than ever. Once you start coming, you won't want to stop! read more

10 out of 10 experience today was my first time going. I got a micro needling facial and I will definitely be going back. I already see a difference within the texture of my skin and it's only been a couple hours! She was awesome. read more

After returning from a long trip in France, my skin was so angry at me from wine and cheese. I had painful cystic acne all over my face. Jessica was so thorough, she asked me details about my regimen, my diet, and sleeping schedule. She got me on a routine that was manageable and effective. I saw her monthly for a regular facial, light treatment, and micro needling. My skin took a total 180 so quickly. The facility is clean and private. If I lived closer I honestly would see her way more often. To top it all off, her services are SO affordable. Highly, highly recommend! read more

This spa is a hidden gem! The quality here is ten times better than big spas like Red Door or Bliss, which I tried but was disappointed for the lack of quality... I suffered from sudden hormonal breakouts and after several treatments like IPL and basic deep cleaning, I saw significant improvement with my acne and discoloration. I no longer suffer from breakouts and received many compliments about my skin. I also had the laser armpit hair removal, not only did it removed the hair but even out the skin tone. read more

Located slightly off big streets, this place seems a small operation, which makes it quiet and personal. I have troubled skin and been getting facial regularly for many years and Skin Sarang is one of the best places I have tried. I love Jessica. She is really really good. She is so gentle and knowledgeable. I went in for micro-needling and she numbed my face, making the experience comfortable and painless. I'll be back in 2 weeks!! read more

This review is long overdue. I have been coming to Skin Sarang for years. I absolutely love Jessica she is the best Facialist around very professional and I have tried many places. I have been following her since she worked in Manhattan. Her micro needling facials make my skin glow for days and fade my fine lines my skin looks dewy and plump. All my friends think I get Botox and fillers but it's all bec I come monthly and do different types of facials as well. All are amazing. I can't thank her enough for my glowing skin!!! read more

My experience with Jessica was phenomenal!! I've received facials and skin treatment from many estheticians throughout the years and I must say, I am by far most pleased with my experience at Skin Sarang! I had the aqua peel (exfoliates and pushes in nutrients into the skin), LED light therapy treatment which helps reduce inflammation and speeds healing process for the skin, oxygen therapy which is good for healing and hydrating with vitamins,minerals, peptides and hyaluronic acid. The reason why I am so well aware of the services I've received is because Jessica was very knowledgeable and had thoroughly explained every step she was taking which I've never had any other esthetician do for me. She also included the Gold mask at the end which was very cooling and relaxing. I've already made my follow up appointment with her and can't wait to go back! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Had an amazing facial with Jessica! She was very personable, thorough, and informative. I'm a huge skincare enthusiast and was just very impressed with the facial, which included micro-current and oxygen among other things that lift and tighten the skin. I left looking great, and was thrilled with the whole experience. Can't wait to go back for more! read more

I had the most wonderful facial with Jessica. My skin is glowing and feels ever so soft! Inviting atmosphere and conversation!

I have definitely enjoyed my numerous visits at Skin Sarang. The estheticians are professionals, the place is SUPER clean, and their machines are top of the line!! I have sunspots and super dry skin. I got the IPL laser to remove my pigmentation which got lighter after one visit. I recommend the aqua peel which made my skin soft and super hydrated. If you have been looking for an honest esthetician, I recommend Skin Sarang!!! read more

This place is a jewel in Flushing! I have acne prone, very sensitive, and dry under the surface skin, and I'm currently on Accutane, which is pretty serious stuff to help with my acne. The esthetician, Jessica, was very knowledgable about my skin's condition and knew what procedures I could and could not have performed on my face. I had the Light Treatment and a mask; my skin felt so hydrated and moisturized!! For those of you who have ever been on Accutane, you know how tight and parched your skin can feel, but after the mask, my skin felt so supple and refreshed, AND my skin didn't freak out to any of the creams or products used on my face. Definitely going again! read more

***HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*** Just got my facial and RF treatment done today and it was an experience I will be addicted to soon! First off, the atmosphere of this place was SUPER clean and it's truly hard to find places in this local area where there is not only terrific service but also a clean environment. The employees were so kind and friendly. They helped make the process simple and eased my nerves by talking me through each step. The first time I got a facial at another place, it felt very cheap and not worthy of my time and money. However, there is a clear difference here. Skin sarang gives you the service you can get at an expensive spa in the city. It saves you time and money. Can't wait for my next treatment! read more

Amazing, warm, friendly, and cozy facial spa to go to. The owner is really genuine so you don't feel like she's trying to rip you off. She uses brand name products which makes me feel better. The lasers that she has are amazing! The light therapy treatment truly helps with my acne. One great thing about this place is that they feed your car meter while you're getting a facial. She makes sure you don't get a ticket. But if you do, then she pays for it. Who does that?! No other spas do that! I love the newly renovated place. Even more reasons to go often! read more

My first review on Yelp. It's been a while since I got a facial being that I decided to go back to school and funds limited. Maybe 5+ years since my last facial so I was really looking forward to a facial. I've had unsatisfying facials on some occasions, but this is the first time I left with a bad taste in my mouth (after my experience with the owner.) I didn't get her name because with Korean culture, we don't address older people by their names. Anyways, I understood/believed she has been in the business a long time, has regulars, and uses the best products as stated by her, but the nuances of the experience she offered were not right and some comments were pretty snide. I went in with very light make up as I was out running errands and in school until 2:50pm and in my past experience with facials, my skin would be cleansed and make up removed in the case I had some make up on. The owner of Skin Sarang just left the mascara on the entire time. I didn't say anything thinking it would be removed at some point. After the facial was over, I got up and saw there was still mascara under my eyes smudged. Skin barely/minimally extracted. Granted, there was light therapy and a mask, but the basics would've been appreciated. The owner told me the facial would be $150 before the start of the facial and lowered it to $120. I would've paid the full $150 for the facial if it was worth it. I gave her a $20 tip as that is the average of my tips if the facial is $100-$120, but it was not a reflection of the service provided. She suggested I receive a $300 micro-needling facial as there is nothing that can be done for my skin because it is so poor as stated by the owner which is false. And if it were, I would not return... My first facial experience here out of many elsewhere where I left feeling just bad. read more
