If you’re considering a new facial clinic, I highly recommend avoiding this place. The team doesn’t work well together. They applied a strong numbing cream on my face for 2 hours (which generally shouldn’t be used on sensitive areas for more than 1 hour, usually 15-30 minutes). What was supposed to be a 1.5-hour treatment ended up taking 3.5 hours. They charged me $750 instead of the $350 plan I had reserved, and I was made to wait for another half an hour for a 20% discount for my next visit at reception. The doctor, nurses, and reception staff definitely need to improve their efficiency.

I'm still waiting for my receipt, and after a month, the treatment has not had any medical impact after mid Nov treatment. I would never go back again (classy hair salon's $75 treatment is 10 times better, effective and staffs are sincere); they lack hospitality and effective medical care, integrity, and loyalty. Check reviews carefully.

** Response to the team:
I would appreciate it more if you could send me the receipt first instead of focusing on public reputations. I'm not here to destroy your business etc just sharing the facts. If I had been in a bad mood, I could have updated my review that day, but I took some time before responding(1 month +!), and it still doesn’t make sense for me to go back at all unfortunately.

Emilia (the nurse) was sincere about she was distracted by a previous customer who arrived late, and forgot about leaving numb cream on my face for a long time. I hope the whole team, including reception staffs (Francis and Taahsini), can receive better training in hospitality. I never requested any discounts, but Francis(if i remember correctly) tried to offer me one for a future visit while speaking with her manager after my treatment. It didn't / doesn’t make sense to make me wait and only offer a discount for next time. If it is for next time, you could have just emailed me with receipt if you know my driver has been waiting and I was in rush even after disappointing excessive hours experiences. I hope you dnd your team take this very seriously. You nearly ruined my facial skin with too much numbing cream hours, and I cannot accept these unprofessional response either.
Thank you and look forward to hearing the update as a team, and please feel free to reach out if you find any further discrepancies in my comments.

Dr. Mehdi Tahsini was amazing. He was very informative and respectful. Furthermore, he took his time with the injections and explaining how the specific filler worked. He even gave me an extra syringe without charge just because he thought it would look better. His work is amazing. I would highly recommend and will definitely be going back!

I had a really great experience as a first time patient at this med spa. The facility was absolutely beautiful, clean and modern everything felt well-maintained and inviting. The staff was incredibly helpful and informative. I did not have to wait to be seen and They took the time to explain each step of the process and answer all of my questions.

The second time I visited, I was a bit under the weather and feeling drained from a recent vacation. I was able to squeeze in for a weekend appointment and the IV vitamin therapy truly helped revive me!

I had an amazing experience at Skin Works Medical Spa for my Botox treatment. The staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and made me feel at ease from the start. The staff explained everything clearly and answered all my questions, which really boosted my confidence. The procedure was quick and painless, and the results are fantastic—natural and refreshed, just like I wanted. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and will definitely be returning. If you’re looking for a professional and caring place for Botox, I highly recommend Skin Works Medical Spa!

I went back for my second Botox treatment today. I am so pleased! First time I received Botox, it really stung. I shared my experience with the staff. They were very professional and caring. My visit today was excellent. I did not experience any stinging sensation and While it still remains to be seen, I’m sure my results are going to be great. I know I will return. The entire staff is friendly. And Dr. T really does a good job explaining how he will apply the treatment in order to get the best effect for me.

I've been a patient at Skin Works Medical Spa for three years and have consistently had outstanding experiences. Dr. T and his team have provided exceptional care, helping me with treatments ranging from lipolysis and hair PRP to facials, Botox and fillers. The results always exceed my expectations, leaving me extremely satisfied.

Beyond the quality of the treatments, the team is consistently friendly, helpful, and proactive. Dr. T, in particular, goes above and beyond to ensure I feel comfortable and well-informed. He answers all my questions with thoroughness and transparency, making sure I fully understand each treatment. His responsiveness and genuine dedication to his patients set him apart--he's always available and willing to go the extra mile, even beyond the scope of my treatments.

I highly recommend Skin Works Medical Spa for anyone seeking exceptional care and outstanding results.
