I was a little anxious walking into my appointment, but all of that melted away as soon as I was greeted by an incredibly kind concierge. She was warm, attentive, and welcoming, and I felt comfortable from the moment I walked in. The environment was relaxing, clean, and inviting. I didn't have to wait for my appointment and was escorted to a private room, where I met with a very kind physician assistant. She simply asked me what had brought me in. As I explained my concerns, she asked thoughtful follow-up questions about how I was feeling, what I was concerned about, and what I hoped to achieve, rather than trying to just sell me some "magic solution". She walked me through all of my options and provided a lot of helpful information that made me feel confident in my decisions. I had mentally prepared myself for a sales pitch, but it never came. Instead, she listened carefully, explained how she could help, and let me decide what would best fit my goals and lifestyle. I left feeling relieved, informed, and genuinely excited for my next appointment. Most importantly, I felt heard.

I have to say she is wonderful, attentive and overall a kind lady. The atmosphere is very relaxing and calming. My skin has been doing very well since I've been to her.

I like Peggy. She's a nice person. However the cot she uses for some of her treatments is very…read moreuncomfortable. There appears to be a more comfortable bed that she uses but not for every treatment. I came in for a facial with extractions which is one of her more basic treatments. I hurt my ankle climbing onto her small cot because my foot made contact with the heavy metal frame (big bruises on my ankle after impact on metal frame). There's several blankets but no mattress pad on a hard metal frame and the blankets were lumpy and uncomfortable to lay on top. She should put a thick pad on top of the metal cot so people don't get hurt like I did. Be careful if you have to use her small cot or request to use her more professional bed which she has on display next to this uncomfortable and dangerous hard cot. I have never seen anyone use this kind of cheap and unsafe set-up for a facial bed. Sad. The treatment itself was 50 minutes and involved a lot of hot towels, steaming and chemicals. Since I use tretinon which is a prescription strength retinol, my skin is very sensitive. Everything Peggy put on my skin including aloe vera burnt. The experience was unpleasant. Peggy herself was coughing a lot in the beginning of the treatment. The prices have increased a little bit from the website. Peggy gave me the website price after I pointed it out and I tipped her too. Update: I told Peggy that I wanted one particular milia extracted and this morning I noticed that it was not completely gone. Very disappointed, especially after her cot hurt my ankle.

Heather's facials are renowned for their effectiveness in treating acne scars and pigmentation. I've struggled with acne throughout my life, and as I age, my face requires more attention to address these issues. After just one visit to Heather's studio, my skin looked remarkably improved. I've had the pleasure of experiencing two amazing facials, and during each session, Heather goes above and beyond to pamper your neck, shoulders, and décolletage. She applies peels, scrubs, and a variety of nourishing products to your face, massaging and cleansing your chest, neck, and the entire area. One of the standout features of Heather's facials is her genuine knowledge and passion for skincare. She genuinely loves what she does and infuses each treatment with love and care. I feel well-cared for after her facials, and she's always willing to offer advice on how to address specific skin concerns or areas you want to improve. Heather's facials are a self-care treat for yourself. I leave her studio with my face fully extracted, cleaned, and glowing from the treatments I receive. I've also tried her Hydro facial platinum facial, which includes a relaxing session under the LED light. The LED light is particularly beneficial for brightening your face, making it an excellent choice for those with upcoming weddings or special occasions. I highly recommend getting this type of facial before an event to achieve radiant, glowing skin. Heather is an incredible small business owner who's a true girl's girl. She's passionate about sharing skincare products for the face, body, and home. I can't say enough positive things about her, and if you're serious about improving your skin or looking to treat someone to a luxurious facial and self-care experience, I highly recommend giving Heather Johnson Studios a try. Heather's studio is located in a hair salon and when you arrive you need to push the doorbell to alert her that you're there and make your way to the stairway and she will let you in to her studio. Located on 65th St. there's usually parking that is free outside of her studio and that's always a plus to not have to worry about parking in a safe neighborhood.

I have always been extra sensitive when it came to physical touch. I could never get a massage because I was too ticklish and the feeling of knots on my body made me cringe! A few years ago,  I booked a massage with @skinbybrittany__ . She knew my situation and let me know that if at any point I started to feel uncomfortable,  we could stop.   She was the most gentle and most professional massage therapist I have ever encountered!   She literally took away my fear of massages (crazy enough, it really was a fear of mine). My body is thanking me right now, after my AMAZING massage with Brittany today.   I'm telling you... book your appointment with her now!  You won't regret it!   She's also responsible for my amazing skin!  She gives the best facials and I am loving my new skin care routine!
