After my dermatologist prescribed special D-light therapy for my eczema and related skin…read moreannoyances, I started looking for an alternative to their very expensive, clinic-provided, tanning booth sessions. Lo and behold, Bella Body and Sol, in the Fairhaven end of Bellingham Washington, has two of these same special tanning booths, which they promote as "D-Light Therapy" (as in "Vitamin D"). They also have very competitive (aka generous) pricing options for tanning sessions. I've been coming here for almost 2 years, and love the results! I feel wonderful, my skin feels and looks much better, and my dermatologist and primary doc tell me: "Whatever you're doing, keep it up - your skin is much healthier, and we see no melanoma issues". Living in the Pacific Northwest, I don't always get as much sunlight as I need or want. I used to look like I visited a "paling booth" until those special 2 weeks after July 5th, when the sun comes out (just kidding - it's at least 3 weeks). Bella's D-Light tanning booths not only help me feel good, but I end up with a great tan. The only side-effect from coming here is having to tell folks that, "No, I didn't just get back from Hawaii". Or else, making up a good travel-to-an-exotic-locale story... Heather Gauf, spa owner, intradermal cosmetic technician, and all around wonder-woman, describes her business perfectly: "Bella Body & Sol is a unique combination D-Light Therapy Tanning Salon & Organic Spa". She and her team of talented estheticians, massage therapists, and front desk staff do an amazing job of helping all of their clients feel welcomed, pampered, and well cared-for, in an inviting and relaxing environment. I strongly recommend Bella Body and Sol to anyone looking for ways to heal many of their dermal dilemmas. And you can also take advantage of their many other services to help you look and feel great!

Ok so the review I thought I was going to leave last night is different than what I'm leaving now!…read more Yesterday I got a spray tan. I'm naturally very fair and going on vacation. I've had good and bad spray tans before, never with d-light. I conveyed that I was concerned about turning orange. Heather was so delightful and comforting. I get my spray on. I look crazy. It's purplish gray. Heather said Trust the process. I drove home. I'm streaky, I'm sticky, I'm frustrated, I'm worried. 3 hours later I shower off and I have a very light greyish tan. I was initially a little disappointed it wasn't very warm. I thought "bummer this was not worth the money." I go to sleep on it, wake up....Bronze (for me) goddess!!!!! I don't know if it was the lights I was standing in the night before or if it continued to develop overnight. It's a warm tan but not crazy and not streaky at all. I love it! Trust the process! Thanks Heather!

Wow. Where to start about Sarah? I did not plan originally to have my makeup done professionally…read morefor my wedding until my hair stylist suggested it on my practice session. I was planning on doing myself. I don't wear a lot of makeup anyway, I can do it myself. Yadda yadda yadda. This is one of those decisions that in hindsight I would never question again. I wasn't really interested in futzing with fake eyelashes on my big day. We paid for a good photographer and even though I have good skin, every single imperfection and discoloration and anything will show up on the high quality photos and BOY AM I GLAD I sprung for getting my makeup done. I can tell as my photographer took pictures of me before and during my makeup application and I saw flaws and spots and pinkness in my skin (around my nose etc) that I never realized was there. All of that vanished under flawless makeup Sarah applied. Sarah took my suggestions for color and ran with them. She is meticulous and has the utmost attention to detail. She does not rush. She does not over do it. In the end my makeup was FLAWLESS and added beautiful shades of color to my face without looking like I was wearing too much. I have never felt so beautiful in my life. Her application of fake lashes will put any other makeup artist's to shame! I couldn't even tell where my lashes were and where the fake lashes were upon scrutinizing in the mirror up close. They would have stayed on for DAYS. So would the rest of the makeup. She uses MAC/high quality waterproof that will not come off in rain or with the inevitable tears, etc. On a side note, she is just the type of person you'll want on your big day. You really feel like she is focusing on every detail and she is not rushing or distracted. She really makes you feel like she is dedicated to doing her best work for you and 100% focused on you. She was early to our appointment. I could go on and on. Sarah has a working relationship with Honey Salon and can do makeup in their *beautiful* space. Very convenient as I did both my practice sessions and my big day hair and makeup in the same spot. She charges a fair price - you really get what you pay for with this one. Just hire her for your event. You will not regret it.

What makes her special is talent, pure and simple. You can't teach someone how to heal if they don't have the gift, and she has it. But don't get me wrong, her technique is flawless. Like a magical fairy, she flutters over your skin and takes care of anything that cries out for help. There was none of that painful digging you find in some skin clinics, and yet somehow, she managed to remove all the little flaws that had been bothering me. My skin has been neglected for some time, as I've had many preoccupations over the past few years related to family health issues. After my facial with Laurin, I went straight home and had the best nap I've had in YEARS. The friend who recommended her warned me that I may fall asleep during the session, as she always does, and she doesn't want to because it FEELS so wonderful but the relaxation is irresistible! Laurin's workspace is so very peaceful and comforting, her personality is joyful and kind, and her abilities are unsurpassed. Everyone should go to her at least one time in life. You won't regret it.

The procedure included an upper blepharoplasty, platysmaplasty of my neck, and SMAS facelift. In addition, I underwent an CO2 laser treatment. Prior to these procedures. I had a meeting with another plastic surgeon in Del mar, California. His estimate was startling and well beyond what I could afford. I then went to see Dr. Lichtenberger and he explained to me that I didn't need to undergo unnecessary procedures to get what I was looking for. Instead, he felt that I could attain a natural look and that's exactly what he did for me at a reasonable cost. The office staff at Life Aesthetic Center, including Erin, Debbie and Dana, made me feel so much at home and so comfortable while undergoing the initial consultation, the preoperative appointment and finally the procedure and follow-up appointments, putting me at ease with lots of great information. Dr. Lichtenberger is one of the most sincere, patient and truly caring people I have ever met. He is an outstanding listener, and I never felt like I was asking a stupid question. Despite my nervousness prior to the procedures, he said that was normal and on the day of my procedures, he put me at ease the entire time. His surgical staff was also top-notch and I am grateful to them as well. We here in Bellingham are extremely fortunate to have Dr. Lichtenberger in our community. I am so happy with my results as I heal more and more every day and can't wait to see my end results in the next few months!
