I grew up in a much cleaner environment than Los Angeles, in terms of the air and the water, and never had any trouble with my skin until I moved here a few years ago. Since then, it's been nothing but breakouts, general spottiness, uneven tone, discolored patches... I got intrigued by an ad I saw a while back in Image magazine and decided that a free 'consultation' at this place couldn't hurt, all I had to lose was a half hour of my time. I was extremely impressed. I'd been feeling like having any kind of procedure done on my face would just give me a different reason to feel self-conscious about my skin, which was definitely not progress. But after taking care to really tell me about how the processes work, I felt really comfortable having my acne and sun damage treated, to fantastic results. Best of all, the issues I started having almost immediately after moving to LA haven't started creeping back in. I have my face back! I got a great facial, and am looking forward to learning more about some other kinds of medicine they offer, like oxygen treatments. I was most impressed by the personal care I received (they remembered me, and I felt important), but a close second was the fact that they're really not a one-trick-pony pushing some miracle cure-all treatment. They really regard their various technologies as tools and took a lot of time to get to know what I wanted, as well as making sure I knew what I was getting. Can't wait to go back for my next facial :) I didn't think anyone other than my bodacious greek hairdresser back home could make me feel this hot ;)
