I went here twice and really enjoyed the process. The esthetician listened to my concerns, the place was clean and relaxing, and the dark, calming environment was perfect for unwinding. My skin looked super glowy afterward, and the extractions were excellent. However, I did find the price point quite high, especially since I'd expect that level of pricing from a larger, more luxurious salon that offers extra amenities like coffee or a fancy atmosphere. Since this is a smaller unit within a building with other small businesses, like nails or hair, I felt like the price was a bit steep for what's offered. read more

I've been coming here for more than a year now and have had several treatments. I would say this was the best decision I've made for my skin. Yun was very thoughtful, professional, friendly, honest, and knowledgeable. I had several problems with my skin especially in terms of texture and hyperpigmentation. And the difference from before I started to until now is a lot! I also appreciate the clean and relaxing atmosphere of the place and I always leave feeling rejuvenated. I will continue to keep coming back and have recommended this place to my friends as well. Thank you - Cyndy read more

After months of pushing out my treatment, I finally made it! I was so happy to be seen by Katherine on a Wednesday afternoon. I was pretty much her last client of the day. She's super knowledgeable and was very nice. I loved her vibe and the ambience of her treatment room. I fell asleep immediately. She told me I had sensitive skin and that I do have some visible capillaries on my cheek, which is something I've always noticed. She also told me that she did a few extractions and my face is a lot better. Which I completely agree with! My next appointment would be around 4-8 weeks for the same treatment. I'll gladly come back. My skin has never felt so bright and smooth. For sure I'll be able to achieve the "glow" I've been wanting. read more

Thank you Yun for making me feel so relaxed. Seriously needed a facial and since my original esthetician closed without notice. I found Yun esthetics through yelp a while back and have her a try. She's located inside SOLA SALON #15 behind the bank. Prior to starting, she asked me my concerns/what I was aiming for then got started. The facial itself was very relaxing! After the facial, she gave me recommendations on how to take care of my face and showed her some of the products I use. She even has some products straight from Korea you can purchase from her. Considering the convenient location and quality, I'd be glad to come back. read more

Yun is amazing. For my first few appointments, I booked a custom facial which is great for first-timers! Yun took the time to analyze my skin needs and decided that the microdermabrasion facial was the way to go. Not only did she address my skin needs but she also offered advice on how to maintain my skin till our next appointment. Within 3 appointments I can see a difference in my face. My skin texture has become soften, my acne scars are fading, and my acne has gone down a but. * I have concerns with acne scars, texture, and acne. I also have combo skin but on the oiler side.* At every appointment, I can subtly see my skin improving- with the advice she gives me on how to maintain and keep my skin under control. *I also appreciate how I don't feel pressured to buy anything or a particular brand. Yun is very transparent for EX: she will say any brand is fine as long as it's a foaming cleanser.* During each facial, she is very gentle, and when we are implementing a new routine she explains her plan. Yun is the sweetest, she is the first esthetician to work on my skin. Not only is she professional but she provides such a relaxing and gentle environment at every appointment! Thank you Yun for listening and addressing my skin needs and concerns! Please book with her! She is amazing. read more

I have been going to Yun for a year and she never disappoints! She is very attentive and knowledgeable. She will also take a good look at your skin esp if it's your first time and lets you know in detail what she will be doing during the sessions. Her place is 100% clean and the background music is soothing. The facial itself is so relaxing that I even fell asleep too. After going to Yun for facials, my skin has improved a lot and has been a lot brighter since! I've also been breaking out less. I can never replace Yun with anyone else. read more

It's my first time to have a facial again after 4 years due to pandemic and I have came across Catherine's facial thru yelp. Luckily, there was an available slot right away. Catherine is very knowledgeable and honest. She is very straightforward and tells you what treatment you need. Which I think is personalized. Before the facial treatment, she takes her time to explain the process so you have an idea on what to expect. Will highly recommend her and I will definitely come back! Maybe, this time with my teenage daughter. Thank you Catherine. read more

I've been coming to Yun Esthetics for a year now and have seen definite improvements in my skin! She takes her time to examine your skin and determine your needs and will make recommendations for a more personalized treatment. The ambiance coupled with her soothing treatments have put me to sleep a couple of times... I always leave well rested and glowing read more

Amazing esthetician! My acne scars are fading after one session of microdermabrasion and a peel. Can't wait to see her again!

Highly knowledgeable and cares for her clients. Provided a custom treatment based on my skincare need. Did not pressure to buy any products but educated on how to maintain skincare. Highly recommend! read more

After moving from Denver to the Bay Area , I was on a hunt for a good facial spot.After reading the reviews on Yelp, I decided to give this place a try. That was 2 years ago. I've been coming to Catherine ever since and the experience is stellar each time. The salon has a serene and calming atmosphere and Catherine is warm, friendly, and knowledgeable, making me feel instantly comfortable and well taken care of. She takes the time to understand my unique skin concerns and goals, and tailors the treatment specifically to address my needs, ensuring that every step is designed to achieve optimal results. She uses premium products and cutting-edge techniques, precisely selecting each component to address my skin's individual requirements. The combination of deep cleansing, targeted serums, and specialized masks have always left my skin visibly transformed, hydrated with a radiant glow. My acne and hyperpigmentation has visibly reduced in the last 2 years thanks to her monthly customized facials. Pro tip : Book appointments online weeks in advance cuz she gets booked fast. read more

My face was smooth and supple after my facial and had no breakouts. Would love to come back and buy a package as I've heard it could be cheaper, but she said we can discuss that the next time I come back. Will update my review when I have the package details read more

I've been seeing Yun for over two years and I can't live without her. She is the best of small business. Even though I bought a package of treatments I can't even remember, she always starts off asking me what I want to do that day. We never nit pick at the small details, and she is so thorough. I moved here from NYC and found Yun on Yelp. Her treatments are longer and feature more equipment and care than the "specialized" facials in the city. read more

Professional service. Definitely left with cleaner skin. Not super helpful recommending a skin treatment for ongoing maintenance. As part of the facial, the scalp and neck massage virtually had no pressure and wasn't impressive. read more

TBH I stopped doing facials for years because they didn't seem to make any difference despite all the time and $$. Recent hormonal drama sent me in search of professional help & I found this on Yelp. I mean, if you want skin care -who better to help than a Korean?! Been coming several months now & it's always very relaxing, professional. Gentle but thorough work. I trust her judgement as she alters which treatments every time depending on what my skin looks like it needs. I'm looking fresher & it's worth the monthly expense ( package deal available). Easy street parking. Located inside a big hair salon. Bombass Panaderia close by. Easy to book online. Text reminders. Highly recommend. read more

I found Yun Esthetic through Yelp, and I'm glad I did! It's been almost a year since I got a facial (due to COVID), and my pores feel a lot cleaner. I look forward to embarking on this journey of clearing up my skin with this place since they have a great package deal (and they're also super sweet and nice)! Crossing fingers that after several treatments I'll see even better results. read more

Update review in the times of covid. I had been going to Katherine for my facials since October of last year. As I mentioned in my last review, I was going consistently (once a month) and my skin was improving so much! My last appointment with her pre-covid was in March of this year. During the period since my last facial until now (September), my skin had literally gone downhill - like a burning car flying off a cliff. This was due to stress from work (who knew working from home would result in longer hours...), not exercising like I used to, and all the craziness going on in the world. It seriously did a number on my skin. Great news is that Katherine is now back in business and I had a MUCH needed appointment with her today. She has taken the extra steps regarding health/safety and sanitizing protocols. As soon as I walked in (I was wearing a mask), I was given some hand sanitizer and she checked my temperature with a no touch thermometer. Katherine herself is wearing a mask as well as a face shield. She let me know when it was okay for me to remove my mask before we started. The whole time I was getting my facial, I felt safe and at ease. I know it sounds silly but getting the facial gave me nostalgia of times before covid... It was a nice little escape and felt so nice to relax after a crazy week. Now my face feels extremely rejuvenated and I'm so happy to continue my routine with Katherine. read more

My first time facial was amazing. So relaxing. Great vibes & more importantly visible results. I noticed a difference right away. My new go-to fave for my facials. Thank you Yun! read more

Yun is very nice and super skillful. She explained everything before we started and explain again during the whole process. She solved some of my skin problems and gave me suggestions. I'll go to Yun Esthetics again. read more

I received a facial from Sunny. She's super friendly and clearly knows what she is doing. She took her time and I really felt like she was focused on doing a good job. When our hour was almost up, she asked me if it was alright we ran over on time so she could make sure she was able to finish the facial and not rush. The only thing that wasn't great was I had to pay an extra $20 for extractions. I felt like it was money well-spent; however, I wish that it was listed on the website. Sunny did inform me when we started the facial so I felt that it was fair. All in all a great relaxing experience. read more

Sunny was amazing. I have been suffering from hyper sensitive skin and last week my face was extra red and flaky. She quickly attended to all my skin concerns and thoroughly treated my face with very detailed instructions on what to do at home to calm my face. My face was instantly calmed down and her home care recommendation (not to use any sticky gel or waxy type of liquid to use on my skin to minimize irritation & other useful tips) worked beautifully. I strongly recommend sunny and will be going back for regular facials! read more

My radiofrequency/cryo facial was wonderful - nothing negative to say! Thorough, gentle, relaxing. Yun is knowledgeable about her craft and clearly cares about her clients getting good results. read more

Not sure about service, but mostly was disappointed on the interaction of blame put on me and cancelling my appointment, without as much sending me any email or text about cancellation, wasting my time. I had booked an appointment at a specific time/day based on Yun's message on yelp on availability. Then, I received an automated message previous day confirming my appointment, and when I arrived, she said it's cancelled and that I had given the wrong phone number, even though she pulled my right number on the phone. She said she sent an email which on checking later , did have info that I need to deposit but has no cancellation notice either or information that it will be cancelled without deposit. Instead of saying how their apps may have gotten it wrong in this scheduling mix up, she kept insisting it's my fault by saying there is a 40$ deposit which was not mentioned at the time of booking of the appointment. read more

I found Yun Esthetic on Yelp, she's professional I felt like refreshed every time, and she knew what I need, she takes great care of my skin so I just brought another package and I don't have to search where else, the environment very warm and comfortable, I absolutely 100% recommended to everyone. read more

Highly recommend Yun. Facials are great, she is very good, easy to book, clean location and all covid precautions.

I made an appointment for 4:30pm on a Sat at 9am on the same day through it's website. I got an email confirmation and arrived on time, but found an empty shop - no customers, no facial specialists, even the lights are off. I called the number listed on the door and no one answered. The lady at the hair salon called perhaps the cellphone of the business owner for me and finally reached her. I was told she "thought the appointment was cancelled". She can probably be here in 20 mins. I have other appointments afterwards so decided to leave instead. I'm not sure how this business operates and how it got these 5 star reviews, but I don't think I'll come back again. read more

I was so excited that I could book online and get a same day appointment for such a highly rated facial. This lady has magic hands!! She was personable and communicated everything she used, and in the end I walked out of there looking like J.Lo. Ok maybe not, but I felt like Angie from the block. Can't recommend this place enough. read more

I have been coming consistently for a little bit over two months now for biweekly facials with Katherine and I am extremely happy. I have struggled with acne my whole life so naturally, my skin is very damaged; dry, patchy, with scars, etc. Finally, Katherine has been able to bring my skin back to life and I am very happy with the results. The key is to be consistent. And believe me, I am very cheap with myself but I decided to make an effort and invest in my skin and I couldn't be any happier. Now that I am past my 4 treatments i plan on keep coming back every 3 weeks or once a month. Thank you Katherine for being so kind and simply amazing. read more

Best facial ever! I have really bad skin break out these days. I found her place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. Katherine is warm, nurturing, and was extremely welcoming of any questions I had. Katherine made sure that the products that she was using did not irritate my skin, and she was very careful and explained the procedures while doing them, which I appreciated. Listen to her recommendations! My entire routine has changed based on her knowledgeable approach to my skins' concerns. While I'm still a work-in-progress, things have drastically improved from her care, products and advice. I would highly recommend this place to others. Can't wait to go back and get another relaxing facial soon! read more

I was in need of a last minute facial and called around to see if I was able to come in asap. Katherine was the first one to call me back so I scheduled an appointment with her within the same week and I was so glad I did. This place is actually inside a hair studio. You have to walk in towards the back and you will see her shop. She is very thorough and knows A LOT about skin and products in general. I spent 75 minutes with her and I learned a lot! She will take her time and make sure you understand what you're getting, how long it will take and how much it will cost. There is no shadiness here. The last time I had a facial elsewhere was 2 years ago and I'm already scheduling an appointment in a month to see Katherine! read more

This place is no non-sense. Katherine took her time to get the best treatment for me! My skin feel so much better afterwards, before my pores were clogged and the skin looked dull. The extraction was really good too and it's just 20 dollar extra. Katherine is the most careful, considerate and experienced master in skin care I have ever met so far. Great experience. read more

It's embarrassing that it took me 3 years to write a review, but then again I don't normally do reviews :-) I have been going to Yun for skin care monthly for 3 years now. I am in my 40s, have oily skin, prone to acnes. From blackheads, to whiteheads to cystic acnes, I have struggled with that all throughout my life. It was a game changer for me since I started my monthly facial with Yun. She is so knowledgeable, professional, and sweet. She monitors my skin, creates facial plan for me based on what my skin needs and balances the plan with a variety of facial treatments. In contrast with the constant breakouts I use to have, my skin now looks so healthy and glowing. My family and friends often tell me how good my skin looks. In addition to having good results, my facial sessions are so relaxing, therapeutic, and refreshing. I know that I will not go anywhere for facial ever as long as Yun is there. read more

Yun gave me a wonderful and sincere service. I have been to many other national esthetics shop but Yun got the best technical skill and cosmetic products. My first visit at her shop already changed my skin much brightened and fully moistured. I feel10 years younger and will definitely come back. read more

I've been getting facials from Sunny for the past couple of months -- hands down best facials that I've ever had! Sunny is very thorough and knowledgeable, not only my skin looked much improved after the appointment, I also got practical advice on things to add to my daily skincare routine. Highly recommend! read more

I agree with all these positive reviews! I've been seeing Katherine and Sunny for the past couple months and they are so amazing. This place literally gives the best facials and uses high quality products! Sunny also does a little massage therapy during ur facial which makes it so relaxing while you have masks on. They are flexible with your schedule and make sure to take care of your skin properly by evaluating our face before and then suggesting what to do. I love going here and will continue coming for all my skin needs read more

I have been looking for a good facialist in the area for a long time, and am so incredibly thankful to have found this place!! I come to Yun Esthetics consistently and have seen the most amazing difference in my skin, thanks to Katherine and Sunny!!!! I have met with both estheticians - both are miracle workers. Sunny takes the time to listen to your skin concerns and will provide honest and helpful solutions to improving it. She is passionate about her work, very gentle, scientific about the ingredients in skin care solutions, and just a wonderful person all around. She is also a massage therapist, and does mini massages while masking, which is amaaazing!! Katherine has been doing facials for a long time, and is very experienced in several skin-related issues. She will also be very honest with you on what solutions will be the best for your skin, and explain why. This place is located inside of a hair salon. The room is really small, but that's one of my favorite things - it's soft, cozy, and feels so relaxing!! Book time with these ladies now!!! You won't regret it!!! read more

This facial was so relaxing! The face and neck massage was amazing. Definitely agree with all the other reviewers, highly recommend.

I've been to Sunny twice for a facial and I've been so happy with the service and results. For reference, I'm 30 years old and have very sensitive, combination skin. Sunny has taken great care to make sure that she didn't use any harsh products. I haven't experienced any flare ups after each facial; on the contrary, my face looks less red and more refreshed. Her massages are also the best! She took the time to massage my upper body and my scalp in addition to my face. I highly recommend getting a facial from Sunny. read more

I have been seeing Katherine for facials since last summer when I had just moved to the Bay Area -- hands down, she is the best facialist I have ever received treatment from! When Katherine told me that she will be opening up her own place in Sunnyvale, I was so relieved and glad. During the few months that I didn't get to see her, of course, my skin definitely was not at its best. Here are a few reasons why I would strongly, whole-heartedly recommend her services to anyone: (1) She only uses high-end, premium products (GM Collins) for her facials. Being a huge skincare product junkie, I've had my share of experiences with various products, and GM Collins is definitely one of the high-end, professionally-used skincare brand that is less well known to most people. You can even buy any of the products Katherine uses directly from her as well. I purchased the Essential Oil, which I can use for spot treatment on acne trouble spots and it's worked wonders. (2) She does not cut short on the 1.5 hour for facials. With this said, her facials are SUPER thorough. I stopped asking her what she's doing to my face during my facial, because I trust that she is doing what's best for my skin. Every time I've had facials, she examines my face and determines what treatments are needed. (3) She is knowledgeable... and continues to educate herself on the latest techniques, products, etc. I've asked her what she does to keep up-to-date on all the latest skincare fads / trends / introductions of new products -- she says she attends conferences and researches to educate herself. Unlike some facialists I've worked with where I received a rotating cycle of several facials, I can entrust Katherine to identify the latest and the best products and treatment methods for my skin. (4) Her price is reasonable. It's definitely not cheap, but for ALL that she does during a facial session... the price tag is very, very reasonable. This was definitely a mouthful... but I'm a firm believer in getting regular facial treatments and will continue to work with Katherine! read more

Got an amazing facial from Katherine. It was 90 minutes of relaxation and pampering. I walked in with dry cheeks, and felt like I walked out with completely new skin. Katherine was great about taking time to assess what my skin truly needs (I requested a brightening facial). And that jaw massage was to die for. Amazing work, and thank you! read more
