Allure Skincare

Three months ago I had liposuction on my thighs, lower abs and calves. There were several bumpy, uneven bruised area. As excited as I was with the shaping, the skin did not look right. My doctor recommended endermologie. I cannot begin to thank Valerie enough for giving me the confidence to wear short skirts! Within just a couple sessions, the difference was unbelievable. My skin is 100% improved in appearance and feel. I am so grateful to Valerie at Allure for really knowing her craft and having the expertise to break down my scar tissue and swelling. She set the pace of my healing way ahead of schedule, just in time for summer...thank you Valerie more

I admit it, I have cellulite - I'm 34 and I recently had a child - go figure! Now is summer and is rough if you have less than a bikini body for summer so I trained for and ran a marathon. Didn't work to get rid of the ""cotttage cheese."" Then one of my co-workers told me about Endermologie! My girlfriend told me she was getting it done at Allure Skincare and Laser Clinic . I agreed to go with her and book my ( 20 session package price was a little less expensive than what I had researched for cost. My first session was a bit awkward (think about your first bikini wax). You get a body stocking to dress in that covers you from neck to feet. The technician instructs you to lay on your stomach and then goes to town on your backside with a small, hand-held device connected to the Lipomassage machine that sucks your skin and fat in and massages it. Then you flip over and she repeats on your front side. During the session you'll probably perform some leg-lifts and crunches in order to target specific areas - by tensing your muscles it forces the fat up and more readily available to the hand-held device. The intensity is dependent on you - what you feel comfortable with. So I've had 14 sessions now and I've lost 8 lbs, a pant size and my cellulite has been visibly reduced - WOOHOO! I just splurged and bought some sexy cheeky panties from Victoria's Secret and my husband is very appreciative :). I have been eating healthy and drinking tons of water (as was recommended by the technicians) but as far as exercise is concerned, I hurt my hip (probably due to running the marathon!) so I haven't been exercising and I'm still ecstatic with the results. My hip is feeling better (due to acupuncture but that's another review) so I'm eager to see how adding exercise to my repertoire will affect the results! Highly recommend Allure Skincare and Laser Center in Astoria Queens location. if you hate dimpled, orange peel, cottage cheese butts and thighs! more

Allure Skincare in Queens was my first experience with Endermologie. I read a lot online before I came into meet with Valerie, but I still had a lot of questions. She was great at explaining what Endermologie can and cannot do. Valerie never pressured me to do more than I was willing. When I explained to her that I would buy a 20 session package if I liked my results after the first few sessions. She agreed to have me pay the full price for each sessions until I decided if I liked it and then if I bought the package, she would take the cost I had paid out of the package price. This is exactly what happened. I did 20 sessions (2 - 3 times a week) and then continued to 'maintenance mode' once I hit 20 sessions, moving to once a week and since have moved to once a month. After 20 sessions, the cost stays at the package price per session. :) I have loved the results from Endermologie. My thighs look great! In addition to the actual Endermologie, Valerie was great at giving me health tips which have really improved my quality of life and and my looks to boot. I thoroughly enjoy my sessions with Valerie. In addition to being a great endermologie technician, she is a pleasure to talk to; I have never met a more real and honest person. more

My dream, to be as smooth as a baby's butt. Reality sets in, and I notice that I have less than a hairless body. Time to get to work. I see Valerie at Allure Skincare . She's fantastic, and it is easy to warm up to her. She's quick and to the point and at the same time genuine. She also doesn't make any qualms if you are getting unmentionables treated, and somehow makes you feel less than awkward while you are in the most awkward poses. Another bonus about Valerie is that she is not pushing the next sale, she does her work and sets great expectations. I will be seeing Valerie until I am as hairless as that imaginary baby. more

've had the laser hair removal & a chemical peel. I'm a bit beauty obsessed, and this place is now in my rotation. I had laser hair removal before while living in San Diego, but was still seeing hairs. The laser they used at Allure was less painful and the best in technology and already I like the results better. I talked to the technician about her lovely skin, and she suggested a chemical peel for me. It didn't feel high pressure- though it was undoubtably a sales pitch. I decided to give it a shot, and the results really surfaced after a week- VERY happy with it. I'm going back this July for some sort of laser to the face thing- will probably re-review after that. And figure out it's official name, I don't think they advertise it as ""laser to the face thing""..... If you're looking for laser hair removal, Allure Skincare in Astoria Queens is Legit- I recommend. I also recommend the chemical peel- my skin looks and feels great. more

I try almost all spas in Astoria and this is a truly a winner. Highly recommended !!! more

Being a shy guy with back hair, my girlfriend finally talked me into going to Allure. I was greeted by Anastasia and Valerie who explained to me how many sessions it would take for my back hair to stop growing, and all about the treatment. At first I was skeptical b/c of all my other guy friends telling me I would need 20 sessions. To my surprise three weeks after my first session hardly any hair grew back. The technicians told me I still had to come in for five more treatments to insure that the hair would be completely gone. It's been 3 month since my final session and no hair not even one, thanks Anastasia and Valerie I'm sending you guys all my friends. Pros: Very professional and confidential more
