Here is an update. The spa is great and I find the staff to be professional and very attentive. I've been back there for other procedures that I am thrilled with. However, after enduring the uncomfortable cool sculpting procedure I was optimistic about the results. But, sadly it did not work for me. After spending $6000 on a procedure that gave me minimal results, I opted to try a different procedure from a well known competitor that does micro liposuction with 2 day recovery time. I am extremely happy with the results of that. Out of respect for the company I reviewed I will not post the competitors name but feel free to Message me privately read more

THIS BUSINESS IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED AND DID NOT REACH OUT TO ITS CUSTOMERS TO LET THEM KNOW !! I am reaching out regarding the remaining sessions that my family and I have prepaid for at Sonterra Laser Med Spa. I have been trying to contact the office at 210-545-3327 by phone to schedule these services and send emails, but have not been able to get through. Additionally, I recently noticed that the website is currently unavailable and that Google lists the business as closed. THEY DID NOT CONTACT THEIR CUSTOMERS TO LET THEM KNOW OR REFUND THE REMAINING PREPAID SESSIONS!! read more

The staffs warmth and professionalism made every visit enjoyable. I highly recommend for anyone seeking a top-notch treatment and exceptional results. Thank you ladies!! read more

I prepaid for services, contacted the numbers I had been provided and no luck. How do I get a refund?!

I prepaid several thousand dollars, and they closed before I got services. There's no way to contact them, number doesn't work and their site is down. What the hell!!!!???? I want a refund!!!! What can I do? read more

Why is this location closed? We paid upfront for 3 skin treatments. How will we get reimbursed for unused appointments?

HORRIBLE service, tried to speak to the receptionist on the phone about being 5 minutes late. She canceled my appointment and hung up on me. Lacking professionalism and common manners. Trust me I will never be back here again. read more

I had the best experience at Sonterra with Blake. I had two separate appointments, at the first I had Botox brow lift, check fillers, and a bottom lip filler. My two week follow up she touched up my cheeks, adjust my brow arch, and filled my top lip. I'm already in love with my new look! Thank you so much!! read more

Jesse did an amazing job with my lip filler. She was super thorough, intently listened to what I wanted, provided professional medical advice, and provided very professional technique /skill. She was not just concerned about the aesthetic, but the health care behind the procedure- which is exactly why you want and need an actual nurse/licensed medical provider performing this procedure! Super happy with sonterra! read more

EDITED: after my original post Dr. Kumar did contact me and asked me to remove my review. He promised a medical grade cream would resolve the scars and repeated burn tissue. At first he was so eager to help but then I called to leave messages and never heard anything back. The person I talked to wanted me to make an appointment but I mentioned, no I need to speak with the person who is aware of my situation. It seems as though whoever is at the front desk is completely unaware. Perhaps there needs to be better communication. I'm not certain. In any case, I paid a lot of money and now on top of a partially removed tattoo - I have a very large keloid scar. It swells in the sun and itches - it still stings a bit when I lay on it wrong. It's SO much worse than having the unwanted tattoo. Each visit cost anywhere from $600-275 and that's to the tune of 6 visits. I'm a regular working mom just hoping to correct a regrettable tattoo. Now I'm left trying to hide. Perhaps this is all a bit personal but I wish I knew what I know now to avoid a costly and extremely painful mistake. The cream did very little, if anything. I at this point I'm just so discouraged. It doesn't help that when my scar/tattoo combo shows that coworkers, acquaintances and strangers make comments - ask what happened -- and any other number of unwanted comments. Of course I always tell them where it came from. Dr. Kumar asked me to take down the original photo and review because it wouldn't be fair if he was helping me to post that. After 1 visit he down played how I felt about the scarring and was mostly concerned about placating me. I did remove it though and waited for the medical grade cream to do its magic. But I'm still left feeling very upset and saddened by the whole ordeal. ### read more

Sonterra Laser Med Spa - Tattoo/keloid scar combo after 5th treatment. Swelled triple the size b4 burn boils surfaced. 4th treatment caused skin to slough off - Skin Care Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The staff here is so friendly. I've been going for my laser treatments and have enjoyed my visit each time. The ladies are very accommodating and knowledgeable, the rooms are very clean. I'm always early for my appointments and they are so wonderful about seeing me on time or early. Definitely a plus for me! I've been seeing Angie each time and I couldn't be happier and more comfortable. I can't wait until Winter so I can get more laser treatments done with them. read more

About a week later, I was contacted and told that I would not be able to receive any future services here. Therefore, they refunded my money. Absolutely ridiculous! read more

I can't recommend this place enough. I've been to other spas and I never had this awesome of an experience. Not to mention caring and helpful the staff was. This not place that is going just inject you and then toss you out the door like you ain't nothing but a dollar sign. They take time to get your treatment set up, get you exactly what you want, and make sure you are happy when you leave. I got Botox and let me tell you what, barely felt the injections and that's without numbing, ice, or anything. I felt so comfortable the whole time. I will never use another spa for anything and look forward to get more Botox and other treatments from them very soon.... I'm thinking lips injections or laser hair removal next! read more

Beautiful, relaxing, and a friendly environment. This was my first experience at a medspa and I'm definitely coming back, Jessie did an amazing job. They make great recommendations without any hard up selling. read more

This was the first place I came to get juvederm lip injections. I researched and believed it was A good place to go. NEVER AGAIN They didn't numb my lips and just injected it straight in... ridiculous. I was completely unaware at the time that the lidocaine inside the actual injection doesn't work until minutes after it's been injected. Horrible fucking service I now go to superior aesthetics where it's cheaper a Physician places the product and I get my lips numbed 30 minutes before they are injected. Do not go here.... just ridiculous read more

I'd highly recommend this company if you'd enjoy a trip to the emergency room in intense pain from third degree burns. I'd gone in for my under arm and bikini area to have laser hair removal. The first couple of appointments went alright, I'd thought. I'd been burned pretty badly, but she handed me baby powder and some knockoff lotion to put on the burns. My skin peeled and blistered, but like a fool I'd returned because I wasn't sure if this was expected. The following visit, the tech was training a brand new girl. She'd never done it before. I was left alone with her while she'd left the room. The machine was turned up and she went to town on my private parts without supervision. She was not supposed to perform the hair removal without supervision, but did so anyway. After a brief cover up by the staff I was sent home. After two days of icing my girl parts due to the intense pain I'd gone to the emergency room where they'd told me I'd had third degree burns and a severe infection. I'd called the "spa" several times with no response until I'd threatened a law suit. They met with me then never answered my calls again. I'd called dozens of times. They get your money and cause permanent bodily injury then ignore you. Is this where you want to spend your money? I went through Hell with the pain and my tattoo is ruined. The hair removal never worked and never got a refund. What a lovely experience. Since posted this review I have basically been called a liar by the owner of this business because they have not found my "yelp alias" in their system. Their information was saved in my phone. There is no mixup as far as which clinic I'd visited for services. It's offensive to claim I'm not intelligent enough to know the difference. Of course I don't use my full name online. I've also been publicly accused by the owner of "targeting" their company. Look at the photos and see for yourself. They cannot be faked. I was injured by this company and ignored for months. Now they threaten to have my review deleted because it shows what could really happen when you use a laser on a client and the technician isn't properly trained. Removal of true and honest reviews is unfair to the prospective clients. If my review is deleted I'll only post it again because y'all need to know what to expect if things don't go as planned. It's a LASER. There're serious risks. Please do your research before attending any clinic. And I still have the same hair growth as before treatments because they REFUSED any more appointments after my burns, yet I got no refund. My emergency room bill was never paid which was thousands of dollars. I paid up front and in full, got burned in more ways than one. NOTE: They claim that this is a FAKE REVIEW due to the fact that my photos are not in their system. They never took photos. Nor do I use my real name on social media. My review is NOT FAKE. read more

I am really skeptical about Groupon, so when I purchased an IPL treatment in order to correct sun damage I really was desperate to remove I was glad I found Sonterra Med Spa. I appreciate the customer service Cori my favorite esthetician provides. She suggested a micro needling after my IPL and because her own skin is flawless I trusted her. She makes the experience a pleasant one even when it can be a bit of a discomfort. I am on my second treatment and really can't wait for my third. My skin looks much more even and firmer from the two I have had. read more

very disappointed. six treatments and $3,500 later, more hair than before I started. feel completely bamboozled

I love Sonterra Laser Med Spa! They are always on time and their staff is friendly and helpful. My technician always makes me feel comfortable and is careful with my treatment. I have seen wonderful results in both laser hair removal and skin treatment. I had no idea that I could get rid of the sun damage that I have on my face and neck--but it is disappearing so quickly! I am amazed!! Thank you! read more

*** I'm still waiting to hear from the owner regarding resolution re treatment area. I paid for a small area AKA full abdominal Trail and I only received half, below the belly button. I don't have a hairy chest ssooo....yea? For all 6 treatments. I attempted to clarify it with the tech on my last visit and she said something about every time except the last time it was full. There was never anything above the belly button. I will also be contacting Groupon about this*** I, like several others purchased a Groupon for laser hair removal. I wish I had read the reviews. Oddly, these reviews of Sonterra's customers consistently indicate (not ironically) they have been underwhelmed at best with the laser hair removal service. I will be adding to that. Having gotten numerous "successful" Laser Hair Removal elsewhere, (yes, even while using Groupons) paired with numerous dissatisfied customers like myself there is clearly something mechanically happening with their laser or their Groupon is a scam. Either way, their machine does not work REMOTLEY close to how it should. I agree, the tech was rushed, even while I was stating my concerns about it not working she wouldn't turn the laser fully up to see if that would allow a better treatment. I purchased a "small" area for my abdominal trail... she would literally get the handheld attachment and do one line down the middle. I would be in and out in less that five minutes. Again, having received laser hair removal before, this is NOT how it is to be done. It makes me wonder if there is a contest happening about how many negative laser hair removal reviews she can rustle up, because if I were her manager and saw this pattern I would one, update my machine that is clearly not functioning (properly) and two, speak to her about customer service. I have become loyal customers to spas that I found using Groupon based off their customer service and results. Bottom line: minimal if any results. Poor customer service (emails were sent detailing incorrect service, several times). I would not recommend until the doctor addresses the ineffective machine and employee. They do however have a water cooler you can get a cup of water from while you wait... read more

I have had several treatments here over the course of a year and I am satisfied every single time. I have had IPL which turned out great, a great micro needling session, Botox and now lip fillers. Jess does my botox and now my lips. She is so nice and so is all of the staff. The products and technology is great and the office is always in order. I had bad lip fillers with at a surgeons office in town a couple years ago so I was nervous. I am so happy with how Jess did my fillers and she truly has the clients best interest at heart. I highly recommend Sonterra laser for your skin care nerds. There is no where else I would go! read more

Sonterra Laser Med Spa - Lip filler before and after. Looks natural and exactly what I wanted! Thank you! - Skin Care Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Jesse did amazing today on my cheek filler! Thanks again for checking my peaks and valleys! Super knowledgeable and up to date on current techniques! Very pleased! read more

Wish I could give ZERO STARS for this grasping, greedy doctor only out to maximize patient spend. I had a serious complication from a routine injection of filler about six months ago and my face swelled up like a balloon! I had to call back SIX TIMES and threaten to see a specialist at their expense (complete with lawsuit), before the doctor would call me back. Imagine how scary it was to have your face swell up and you paid money for that! Oh, my, as long as they had my check they weren't interested in following up, they told me I'd have to wait three weeks to come back in. Finally, when I was able to see the doctor, he followed the issue and it eventually the swelling calmed down. Do you think they offered a refund? Oh, please!! You're making me laugh. Their concern for their patients is exactly NOTHING. This is reflected in the behavior of both the doctor and the staff. Months later, (now a few weeks ago) I missed an appointment because I had a sudden death in my family. Today when I called, they demanded to charge me $25 for a missed appointment, not caring even that my sister just died suddenly and I missed the appointment because I was at a funeral! Of course, it WAS silly of me to think my personal dramas of death etc. are more important than "doctor"s revenue stream. I can't believe I might have imagined a death of a loved would be of the slightest concern to any of them. Does concern their revenue? No? OK then let's move on. "Sorry, If we excused you missing an appointment due to a death in the family, we'd have to excuse every other missed appointment. People die every day, ma'am." WOW. I recommend you go someplace else - any place else - and get a doctor who treats you like a human being - with understanding, responsiveness and compassion. Only go here if you'd rather be treated like a personal ATM. read more

I have been going here for laser hair removal on chin and neck. My hair has gotten out of control as I am trying to treat PCOS. I was skeptical bc of the PCOS but even so far after one treatment it's significantly reduced. My tech Corey is theeee best and I highly recommend her. Does a wonderful job and very knowledgable. read more

A few months back I surprised my fiance with some services from Sonterra Laser Med Spa and she absolutely loved it. I don't always pick out the best gifts, but she has literally thanked me every day since. It is always a win win situation when we both get to enjoy it:) The staff was very friendly and helped me pick out the perfect laser hair removal package. If you are looking to get something that your sweetheart will love then look no further. They use superior products and I am even considering using their services for myself. If you are looking for a quality laser med spa with competitive prices then you should give them a call. read more

I have had a great experience coming here so far. I decided to do laser hair removal on my legs and brazillian. My technician is absolutely lovely and she makes me feel so calm and relaxed in an uncomfortable situation. She's super down to earth and make sure you leave knowledgeable and know how to care for your skin afterwords. I now want to continue the removal and do armpits as well. I did the series and it's so worth it. They also do specials so make sure to ask about them. The ladies at the front desk are friendly and the wait time isn't long at all. read more

From the moment you walk in the staff makes you feel super comfortable and at home. They are very knowledgeable and also didn't treat me any differently when I used a Groupon. The technician, Megan, puts you right at ease and gave me detailed suggestions on the best treatment plan for me. I have been going there nearly 3 months now and I could not be happier... I recommend Megan to all of my friends and family... It is such a great price and really a great experience. She truly is the best Technician I have ever worked with and I've had several other technicians in the past. I highly recommend!! read more

Hands down the BEST Medi Spa in San Antonio! The girls at the front are fantastic and are more than willing to help you in any way they can! This is my second time going in for injectables and I am more than satisfied! Blake is outstanding, she is always incredibly informative and attentive to any questions or concerns you might have. Also, her work is really beautiful! My lips are full, plump, and fabulous! read more

Jessi was AMAZING! I was a Botox "virgin" and she made me feel so comfortable and at ease. She truly took pride in her work and I really appreciated that she always asked what I wanted, but gave her honest opinion about how she thought it would look at the same time. VERY happy with the results and will definitely be back! I highly recommend making an appointment with Jessi! read more

I can't say enough good things about the experiences I have had at Sonterra Laser MS. I've been 4 times, and plan on going in for another session. The decor is serene and beautiful and all of the staff are sweet and friendly. Kerila and Blake have been so awesome. I'm quite shocked to see a review about the staff giggling. They are so professional and friendly, and I'm sure that it was unrelated. BTW, since going to them for IPL treatments, I have had numerous compliments on my skin and how youthful I look. GREAT EXPERIENCE AND GORGEOUS FACILITY! read more

Had my first session and it went great can't wait to see the outcome. Staff was extremely friendly and nice. Laser did not hurt that bad. Highly recommend this place! read more

Blake is the best! A true professional and just overall sweetheart that I trust 100% I wouldn't go anywhere else in all 50 states! All the girls up front are so sweet and the atmosphere when you walk on is just very cozy and welcoming! I love my SONTERRA Laser Med Spa! Keep up the heavenly work, dolls!!! read more

Quick and friendly service, Chelsea was beyond thorough, answered all my questions and put my first timer anxiety at ease . She was absolutely amazing. read more

Beautiful office. Upset with the front desk. I arrived for my appointment and one girl checked me in and told me to hurry up with the paperwork so I could be seen. I get it I'm late but why tell me to hurry?? Then another girl told me I'd have to be rescheduled because I was too late. That's fine, they told me in the phone if I was 15 minutes late they would have to reschedule me. I mean I was late but you all don't have to be rude about it. Interesting staff. read more

I've been using Sonterra Laser for about 5 years for various aesthetic skin improvements and I have always been pleased with the outcome! My latest procedure, an IPL with Angie, ranked right up there with one of the best procedures I've had to date! Prior to administering my IPL, Angie conducted a thorough skin analysis and consult . It was extremely helpful to be able to see the areas of my skin which might benefit from personalized treatments. That being said, Angie performed the IPL with confidence, care, and to my satisfaction. I will definitely be seeing Angie for future procedures and recommend her and Sonterra Laser if you desire skin treatments from highly qualified aestheticians. read more

I worked with Corie. She was totally professional and explained thoroughly what was going to happen. It put me at ease. I will be back. I only feel bad that I didn't tip. There is no pressure here and I didn't realize until I checked on-line that it is a normal courtesy. I will make up for it next time. The service was great! read more

Linda was professional and warm. She was patiently explaining the process. She suggested several options which I thought was very considered and caring. Therefore, I felt comfortable to move forward with the treatments. read more

Blake is the best injectionist in the San Antonio area in my opinion. She is extremely knowledgeable about different facial structures and muscle groups. She constantly seeks education about the latest methods and products available. She always requests feedback and urges you to come back if you are not 100 percent thrilled. To top it off, she is warm, caring, personable, and hilarious! You have to book her early because she fills up and it's totally worth it. read more
