ARTFUL AESTHETICS REVIEWS
I have been going to Irina and trusting my face in her hands for over 15 years! I moved 8yrs ago and now drive almost 2hrs for appointments, I wouldn’t go anywhere else (I had some bad experiences before finding her). I work on photo shoots and look at models as part of my job so I am pretty particular about how I like to look - Irina never does too much and she knows how to inject without bruising (it’s very rare I have to cover anything up!) Basically I arrive and ask Irina “What do you think I need?” and then I leave it to her. My husband (who hates the concept of me not “being natural”) compliments Irina’s work, that means everything to me. I’m 54 years old but get told a lot that I look much younger. Obviously I highly recommend Artful Aesthetics!
I’m 52. I have had the absolute best experience and results working with Artful Aesthetics to achieve my best self goals. I get so many compliments out in the world on my skin glow and youthful appearance. I have had various treatments; Kybella, Sofwave, and do tox and fillers, PRP with Lily for facial balancing, lifting and skin quality and Janine for PRXT33. So thankful I found them! Thanks ladies!
Irina is the best... she took time to understand my concerns and presented options to obtain the goal. She was very patient with my nerves during the injections, never making me feel ridiculous during the treatment. I love my results and will 100% be back!

SKINSPIRIT REVIEWS
Great experience at this spa! I made an appt for micro-needling+ dermaplaning + peel. Lauren suggested to get a power facial with a light peel. Wow what a nice facial and she went step by step with what she did. It was my first time there. I even got a light shoulder and back massage. I sure needed that. Just had a baby 3 months ago and just wanted a pick me up. I purchased 3 products and it cost more then the facial. I really like the exfoliate by obagi but the rest I can do without. I will be back for a facial and maybe micro needling but will not be purchasing any products. Thanks!
I’ve had a number of practitioners at skin spirit Montclair for Dysport- most recently Kristine. Everyone, including the non-medical staff, is wonderful. The practitioners explain everything, make sure the patient is comfortable and okay during the procedures, and the rest of the staff are friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend Skin Spirit, Montclair. I’m planning to have IPL there next..!
Beautiful spa like setting. Extremely friendly staff. Ilka is truly amazing. She does an excellent job with extractions and the entire facial is wonderful! I am now driving to Oakland (from SF) to see her:) Recommend Ilka above and beyond.

REFINE ANTI-AGING MEDICINE AND AESTHETICS REVIEWS
Have been going to Dr. V for about a year and a half to address issues I had with menopause symptoms and the inability to lose weight despite hours and hours of exercise. I felt like I was spinning my wheels. Dr. V took a pragmatic and careful approach, asked numerous questions and looked at bloodwork/hormone panels before suggesting a good course of action. After initial testing, I began BHRT (Testosterone and Estrogen pellets and Progesterone) and I feel like I have my life back -- worth every penny!! Once you are begin, she routinely follows up at regular intervals to retest and ensure the dosage is still right for you. Individualized, personal care-- tailored to your specific needs and very responsive to any questions you have. Highly recommend, if you are on the fence about trying a bio-identical solution --don't wait or suffer unnecessarily. I felt the difference after about 3 weeks.
Dr. V and her team are the best. As I age I work with a variety of different doctors, trainers, and medical professionals. None of them are as attentive and thorough as Dr. V. She generally cares about her patients and the way she operates her business. She treats patients with kindness and respect and Refine is the BEST life hack in the Bay Area.
It was an amazing experience. Nurse Fletcher was super attentive during the entire procedure. Lorra was very accommodating with my schedule. The office is organized and clean. There is ample free parking in the residential area close to the clinic. Highly recommended to get your IV drip.
