Oh gosh I wish I had spent more time doing research about this process and place... losing inches via this res light does NOT work. Save your money. The claim is you can loose from 2 to 10 inches per visit. Not true. They do not measure you each visit as they are aware it does not work. Sort your reviews from less satisfied to view all true comments. read more

I am so impressed with my experience with Skinny Beam! Considering that I was originally looking into getting Cool Sculpting first, I have to admit that I am more than happy that I made the decision to try out this new innovation first! I was recommended by my mother of whom was a patient recently and was more than happy with her results. A couple of days ago, I decided to purchase a package and got scheduled to see Dr. Salyer right away. After going in, I was greeted with hospitality and spent 20 min lying down under the LED light. Afterwards I found out that I lost a total of 5 inches off of my stomach, waist and thighs combined. I definitely felt the difference at the time too and could see the difference the following morning. I am scheduled to go back tomorrow and I cannot wait! Note: My husband can also see the difference which is a HUGE plus! read more

I should have left this review sooner... Dr. Don is a fraud, the millennium's version of a snake oil hawker. He uses high pressure sales tactics and then shaming, if you decline. Non invasive laser lipo doesn't work, it's a scam. Save your money and self respect! read more

I bought a Groupon with them right before the pandemic. When I was about to use it we had the lockdowns. They told me they would open it and that way I could use it in the future. A couple years went by because of the lockdowns and Covid, and I contacted them about using it finally and got no response. I ended up buying another Groupon because it was the only one available and I wanted to lose some weight on my legs. I went in and was put on some kind of a machine under a blanket with red lights. The ad said laser Lipo, which is done with a machine that targets specific areas. When I ask him why I didn't get the laser Lipo he said he didn't have enough staff. He then sold me an alkaline water pitcher for $55. When I got home I looked it up on Amazon and you can get them for around 30. He also sold me a supplement for candida and then told me to go home and do a test. When I did the test at home it showed I did not have candida. I would avoid this place if I were you. read more

Great service, professional front desk staff and very helpful! Katie is always so sweet.

What a racket! Glad I was able to get out of that high pressure sales pitch quick. Don't do it ladies! Do not buy the groupon!!!!!! I told them I wasn't concerned about weight just how I feel and how my clothes fit and this piece of garbage looked me up and down. His office manager was high pressure too and the dr is just a sleeze ball. He was running late therefore running me late...made excuses for himself and tried the hard sales pitch to keep me listening to his garbage about supplements even though I had told him twice I was already on a program I was happy with but would hear him out some other time and his lack of ethics and integrity still pushed. Don't do it!!!! Wow!!! I just received a call from Tony at the office where he tried to berate me!!! Thug as garbage.. see pic of this guys number. I just listened to a voice mail this guy left me wow!!! Disgusting. I will post that too. That means this office manager called me twice! Now called me for a third time from a different number! Say repulsive company.,. read more

See all

I lost 4 pounds in 4 sessions with dieting and exercise and lost 5 min on my session for coming a few minutes late . It worked to help me get the kick start in my weight loss journey tho I would say the staff is very laid back about not wearing a mask. All the customer so far that I have seen have worn mask would like the same from staff read more

Excellent experience! Very honest presentation of possible results. Not really a fan of supplements, however, I do think the two that I chose, helped. I used a Groupon, and had no problem scheduling. They actually scheduled my five appointments, on the first call. I lost a total of 6.5 inches and 2 lbs. I plan to continue the sessions. read more

Completely disappointing. Terrible service. No return call from the doctor after he missed and appointment and didn't return a call after 4 requests for additional information. Completely unprofessional. When I requested a refund because of the 10 sessions I purchased I only completed one, I was refused and they actually lied to the credit card company and told the, I received all the sessions (since I was in a different state when they said I received them, I'm really confident I didn't ). So, needless to say, I didn't appreciate the Howell of products with no communication as promised. Most of the positive reviews are paid for - which you will clearly understand after a visit to the office. Spend your money somewhere else, this isn't worth it :-( read more

I just want to say that I went to skinny beam and I absolutely love the results I got from it. I wish I lived closer that I could go more often. It's worth every penny. I wish I could afford all the drops because they made me feel amazing and I just can't afford them anymore. But I highly recommend going to skinny beam. I found everybody there very pleasant easy to deal with I didn't feel pressured into buying anything at all I just wish I could go more often read more

I purchased the diet program for $1600, most of the cost is based on providing me with a service for coaching/monitoring me while on the diet program. Their service was lacking, at best. I complained verbally at the office once - you would think that would've snapped them into some action, but it didn't. When I asked for my money back on the service, they refused. I feel that I'm being completely reasonable as I'm not asking for a refund on the products that were consumed - just on the service that they did not provide. I actually liked some of the products and would've continued to use some of them; however, their response of "sorry, no refunds" has turned me off completely from buying anything from them again. read more

WOW!!! I am in shock after reading all of these negative reviews by individuals that obviously didn't follow the program and/or didn't even give it a chance. What a bunch of uneducated lard a_ _ losers that expect miracles on their first visit!!! WOW!!! Here's my story, first of all I have "NO TIES" to Dr. Don or any of his staff. The first time that I had met any of them was yesterday (4/28) at my first visit. They were all three very knowledgeable and professional regarding the products and the systems behind the Skinny Beam Program. Oh yeah, I was NOT paid to write this review by Dr. Don or any of his staff. In fact, I wrote this because I was very upset with the unbelievable bashing they all took when I just experienced the total opposite. What's wrong with people!! The office manager Mikelti (sp) was awesome from the time that I booked my appointment last week until I went in to meet with Dr. Don at the end of my first visit. She walked me through every step of the way and for those of you that say that this program doesn't work just stop and take another look at her and I rest my case. With Mikelti's (sp) participation and knowledge of the program she is a major asset to the company!!! I will admit, at first, I was a little bit shocked at the total cost for everything. But, with that said, I never once felt pressured to buy everything that Dr. Don recommended to me for my individual program. Dr. Don is obviously very knowledgeable in this industry and spent over an hour and a half in our meeting answering my questions and concerns regarding Skinny Beam's program. Finally I met with his office guy at check out and he was also very knowledgeable with the products and the Skinny Beam program (sorry I didn't catch his name). He seems to be a very nice and kind person though on first impressions. In closing, I also bought the Groupon 10 session package at Christmas time and had absolutely "NO" problems in booking my first visit. As a matter of fact, when I called Mikelti (sp) last week on (4/23) I mentioned to her that I was a few days past my Groupon expiration deadline and I guess with everything going on in the world right now she was able to make it work. So thanks again!!! We booked the first visit for yesterday (4/28). After I checked out yesterday I went ahead and booked my second visit for tomorrow (4/30). So as you can see, it is pretty hard to get your visits set up, ugh, NOT!!! HMB read more

I went it for my free consultation and felt pressured into buying the products. I'm disappointed in the products and felt it was waste of $200 on supplements plus $150 for the sessions I purchased. Total of $350 wasted!!! Plus I don't think there is a refund either so I strongly encourage people to save their money and go to a place that actually backs their products up. Plus they tell you that you lost inches but when they first measure you they do it loosely and after the light therapy they measure you tightly so of course it comes off like you lost couple inches total...... it's a scam!! I wish I did more research before going. Now that I've paid I feel like I have to keep going. read more

I absolutely LOVE skinny beam. Staff is so welcoming and polite, and the concept is so fascinating. I have been using the laser light pad's for a couple months now and have seen amazing results ( also haven't been working out as much due to COVID-19, still great results). Love this place. read more

I wasted my $400. Don't waste yours. Terrible just a joke of an operation. Bought the groupon and was told I needed to spend even more money to have the program work. And I mean $100s and $100s of dollars. When I told Dr. Don I was not going to spend $1,700 on his diet plan and supplements he scoffed at me. I went minimal if you can call $400 minimal. Then I could never get an appointment to use the one crappy broke down machine they had. Just awful. I was so mad at myself. The reason "Dr. Don" has so many commercials is because of dummies like me funding him. read more

Worst experience ever! Interesting that other reviews returned product since they apparently have a no return policy now. I guess they were tired of losing money on product that didn't work they way they said it would. I was lied to by the side kick of the so called doctor. He was so unprofessional during a phone call that he hung up on me. Seemed that I was talking to an unruly teenager. All the products they sold me cause me migraine headaches. They promised that I could return them if I had a reaction as I let them know I had celiac's disease. Then when I got sick, they refused to allow the return. I sent all the products back with sign delivery so they could have them and they still would not give me my money back. I consider this stealing. Unbelievable that these people run a business. Don't get fooled! Not worth any of the money or time! read more

Been working with the team at Skinny Beam for just over 3 weeks. These guys are incredible. I am not using the Skinny Beam myself, however my wife is, and she loves the results. We are both on the supplement and food management plan. The 24 hour support and coaching really has made this a relatively painless process. I have lost over 20 lbs and my wife is over 10 lbs. The staff has given us high expectations and the support to get there. Their promise is to guide us until we achieve our goals and beyond. Highly RECOMMEND !!! If you follow the program, It will work!! **** I was not paid for this and I truly am writing about my positive personal experience. read more

Be careful when buying a Groupon for Skinny Beam. They will schedule you 4 months out and mark your Groupon redeemed. I have health reasons that make it impossible to go in 4 months, so now I was tricked into buying a Groupon that can never be used. I would like a refund and I think they should warn people before taking their money that no appointments are available in a reasonable time period. This is very disappointing and not a good business practice. read more

They really worked with me on scheduling because I missed so many appointments had a hectic schedule anyhow I enjoyed the people who work there they seemed very pleasant and the doctor was kind as well very knowledgeable one thing I did not expect was to be up sold $1,500 worth of stuff now that being said I haven't utilized it yet so could be worth it but I'm a single mom I got a Groupon for a reason and can't really afford anyting even if they were able to help me out a little bit but that being said let me give it a shot I gave him four stars because they knew no delivered everything they said they would I just didn't like being blindsided at the end it's hard for me to say no because I feel embarrassed and I'm in sales so but like I said I'm going to give it a shot I do see a little bit of results and I'm feeling a little better so hey I don't see why it wouldn't work I just think there should be a more tactful way to transition into the products read more

I started the program on March 4th and so far I'm very happy with results because it does work as long as you drink the water, stick with the diet, and take the supplements. On my first visit You get a lipo laser treatment and a consultation with Dr. Salyer. I met the staff while I was there and they were professional, efficient, and friendly. The business Manager, Mikelti, is very helpful in setting up the lipo-laser procedure and answer questions. My consultation was okay except for the price was a sticker shock!! I asked what that covered and could I have an itemized invoice? I was told it would be too hard to itemize the supplements and the hours of professional service. I didn't pursue the issue because I was in shock with the price Later when I was reading some of the reviews, which I should have done before I went, I found that a lot of patients were charged a lot less. I don't know what method they use to charge patients? I also returned two products that I could not take and they assured me I would get a refund. That hasn't happened! read more

I am losing inches of my lower abdomen that had been a trouble area for me. It is difficult to exercise with arthritis and fibromyalgia. This gives me the boost I need. Also they offer supplements, I highly recommend the anti-inflammatory drops. I have seen a dramatic decrease ìn my peripheral leg and feet pain. I no longer take Lyrica. I also have been able to reduce my pain meds. I am a retired nurse and would not recommend it unless it had a benefit read more

I lost over 15lbs in 4 weeks and it would have been more had I followed the plan the whole time. Funny when I read reviews I noted a lot of people mentioning groupons. I heard through friends about Dr. Salyer's knowledge of hormones and weight loss and after three doctors (2 OBGYNs and one fertility specialist) did nothing about my hormones, Dr. Salyer reviewed my labs, got me on the proper course of hormone treatment and within a week I was feeling better, my depression went away, my moods stabilized and then I tried the skinny beam and lost several inches. Since my hormones were a mess for over two years I had gained 40 lbs. To help with the weight loss I started on the metabolic plan and followed the diet and water consumption. I had a few weekends with some things not on the meal plan and big surprise I did not lose weight those days. Everyone that sees me thinks I have lost about 25lbs when initially I only lost 15. The weight continues to come off, but it doesn't surprise me it is not successful for everyone, people know so little about diet, nutrition, the amount of food they actually consume and water intake so they don't follow it and don't get results. Dr. Salyer is a wealth of knowledge and for those that truly want to be healthy long term this is the place to go! read more

I have been going to Skinny Beam for a few months now. I love the benefits of LED red light therapy. My sessions are extremely relaxing and I get a "feel good all over" from the session. My first visit, I lost 7 inches. I have continued to lose. My daughter had sessions for her acne. Those sessions helped start the healing process of adult acne. Dr. Don S is extremely knowledgeable in hormone therapy and in processes for weight loss. Not only medically trained, he's also a body builder and understands weight loss and gain from a personal aspect. Tony, the office manager, is a great guy who made me feel comfortable being there. Brooklyn and Jade are the ones I have contact with each visit and they are so sweet and do their jobs well! The rooms themselves are sanitized after each client, which makes me feel safe, the process itself is painless, and the results received when following Dr.Don's weight loss plan are worth going to Skinny Beam. read more

I have tried several different lipo laser treatment centers in Austin, and my experience is that Skinny Beam gets the best results BY FAR. I believe it is because their machine is much more powerful than other machines in town. I am particularly pleased with the belly fat that I have lost after a few treatments. I am 63 years old, and it is not easy for me to lose fat at this age, but Skinny Beam DOES work. The entire staff at Skinny Beam is pleasant, responsive, and professional. I highly recommend this place. read more

I am on my 4th treatment and will definately book more sessions. Dr. Don and his staff are very pleasant and professional. Yes, you may have to wait to start treatments but staff worked with my schedule even through the holidays. Try Skinnybeam, you will be pleasantly surprisec. read more

I love this place! I bought on groupon too, was a little skeptical at first because of the long wait to get in. But after the first treatment I was HOOKED... Love Love Love the shaker !!!!! You want great results buy the product and you will be HOOKED as well !!!! read more

I am losing inches the easy way, every time I go in for this painless, relaxing, effective treatment. Used to feel I should sweat them off at a gym, now I've gotten over that & exercise when I want as supplements to my Skinny Beam sessions. The staff, Allison, Ann & Tony are efficient & so great to work with. Everyone cares & I've been going to Dr Don Salyer for years for my chiropractic adjustments. Highly recommended all the services available!!! read more

Worst service ever and Dr. Don is just as pushy as a car sales man. During my consult I showed and informed Dr. Don that my skin is very sensitive and I can not use many products on my skin. Despite what I said he still pushed his creams on me which came out to be 400$ worth. Then when I expressed to Ann, the receptionist, that I had broken out in several sever rashes, she stated that she would contact the doctor and get back to me....well she never did and I asked multiple times. Then after calling several times and leaving several messages, I finally called one more time and spoke to Katie about canceling my membership because of the following reasons..1. I had an unlimited membership but could never get a session time because they where always booked 2. I haven't seen any difference in loss 3. I find it really gross that they do not sanitize the bed that naked people get into 4. I don't want to pay for something that I can not use 5. I plan on moving. If you like being taken advantage of and spending money on a scam then by all means sign right up otherwise save your money and invest it into something useful. read more

I've left 3 messages since Thursday to schedule my first appointment and no one has called me back. I've heard great things about this place, but I am highly disappointed with the lack of responsiveness. read more

I had my first consultation yesterday. The office staff was friendly, and very willing to accommodate several past reschedules due to a hectic schedule without any cancellation fee or loss of session (bought a package from Groupon). One of the female staff members measured me before my first laser session, which lasted about 18 minutes (I did the body and facial treatments). They provide a face cover and eye protectors (what you would use in a tanning bed), and play relaxing music while you go through the process. She took measurements again afterwards, I didn't see drastic loss of inches but I did lose a few overall! I also know that it takes time, like everything when you want long term results, and must be combined with healthy eating and exercise to get the most out of it. I then got on a vibrating exercise machine for 10 minutes, and it honestly did feel like I got a bit of a workout on my muscles. I then met with Dr Don, who reviewed my initial health inventory and was able to pinpoint why a. My energy has been so low and b. Could speak in detail as to why I was having the issues I have had for awhile. I haven't felt the level of relief in awhile, and after having other doctors and tests show that "nothing was wrong" I actually felt heard. He laid out the different options that they offer, and was adamant that he would work with me to reach my health and weight goals quickly, while also providing a detailed explanation of the supplements and plan. I chose to start with the supplements and see how they work, I am unsure why people are saying he was pushy and nasty as that was the opposite of my experience with him. I will provide an update after a month of treatment to share results! read more

Skinny Beam is great! I was skeptical at first, but Lost 2 inches in my first visit. The staff is amazing... Helpful, friendly, knowledgeable & gives realistic expectations! read more

A Rip off Took 600.00 from me and delivered nothing. Refused to give me my money back read more

Don't be fooled, the weight loss doesn't come from lying on the pad for 20 minutes, but from the $1500 worth of products you will be pitched. I liked 1 of the 5 products I was sold, but returned 4. I had a difficult time getting appointments and appointments are only available during the day, during the week. read more

This is the worst place i have ever been to. The staff is more than rude when trying to make an appointment. Obviously these reviews come from their own staff trying to make the place sound lovely when it's not! It does not work and what made it my worst experience is the rudeness of the staff!! Their racism and rejection towards people is out of this world. These are the type of people who look down on others.!! I was born in California i speak perfect English yet the lady kept telling me she couldn't understand my accent???! Just because I look Mexican? Like seriously!! Would never recommend this place to anyone. read more

I am happy with the results! I am losing inches off my lower abs which has been my problematic area for years. I took the supplements that was recommended to me in conjunction with diet, exercise and direction of Doctor Don Salyar. Office staff is extremely friendly and I did not have any issues scheduling my appointments. I would recommend Skinny Beam. read more

Happy with my results! I bought 5 sessions and started to see results soon after the first one. With diet, exercise and the supplements that was recommended to me I am satisfied with my results. read more

Trying this for the first time and seeing initial positive results. Want to wait till last session for final review. The staff is incredible specially Allison and Tammy. read more

Love the team here at Skinny Beam. I started at 20 size and I am at a size 16. They are amazing and professional team. Definitely recommend their services. . read more

Great experience, definitely going to buy more Groupon vouchers in the future! Staff is friendly and professional.

Buyer beware. I had the same experience as a previous reviewer, where they wouldn't give me my first appointment for more than 3 months. They rarely answer their phones, and I only heard back from them after I called Groupon to try and get my money back. That got their attention. I went to my consultation today, and got a bad feeling when I read the paperwork they asked me to sign. You have to agree to buy their pills and supplements: SUPER SHADY. Also, in the fine print it says you need a minimum of 19 treatments to see results. My groupon was only for 5 treatments. Seems like bait and switch to me. The paperwork also said you should cut down on carbs and fat and exercise every day as "part of the treatment". Well DUH, of course you will lose weight if you do all that! As I waited to see the doctor, I could hear him talking to another patient in the next room. I heard him ask her how she wanted to pay for her supplements, and I heard him say something about it being $395 and she could pay up front or in installments. It sounded like he was pressuring her to pay up front. My bad feeling got worse, so I took my paperwork and left. NO ONE called me to ask why I left. What kind of doctor acts like that? I also found it shady that they didn't have the business name on the sign in front of the building, just the dr's name. I will be canceling my future appointments and calling Groupon back to complain. Nothing about that business seems legit. read more
