1- A R., New York, NY 8/14/2016

“… my skin has never looked better. My esthetician Hannah is very patient and kind and does a very thorough job with extractions. I never feel pressure to purchase products, in fact, Hannah seems to take a "less is more" approach which I appreciate. Highly recommended.”

 2- G R., Astoria, NY 7/27/2012

“Hannah is such a sweetheart!

I basically saw immediate results (after my skin recovered - took about 4 days) and have gotten so many compliments on my skin since seeing Hannah.  When I go there, I always get the glycolic peel and Hannah massages my face and neck (very relaxing).

Hannah didn't push me to buy these products.  I let her know what I could and couldn't afford and she has been very receptive to that.  She also remembered exactly when I will be getting married so that we can prepare my skin in time.  Very personal, warm, and expert at what she does.  There is no pore left clogged when I'm finished!”

“Wow! Hannah really made my skin glow.

…the best facial I have ever gotten.”

“The only people I trust when it comes to skin care. I have been seeing Hannah for facials for over two years…

…especially Hannah because I have worked with her the most. It's an investment cost-wise, the facial extractions are very painful (though the first is the worst - they're cleaning out all the build up from over the years), and it will take a few days to a week for your skin to heal (again, the first facial will need the longest recovery - I think my face took 5 or 6 days to heal the first time).

Totally worth it. I had tried everything to clear up and nothing worked until I began going to Hannah, following her advice. “

“My facialist was Hannah and she was amazing from start to finish. She accessed my face and told me that she needed to do a lot of extractions and I would probably need a green tea mask afterwards depending on how my skin would react to all the pricking. She said I did not need microdermabrasion. She took her time to make sure that I was comfortable and explained every step of the process. Word to the wise, any extraction is not without a little bit of pain. I let Hannah do her thing and get rid of all the impurities in my pores. Because I do have sensitive skin, I looked like I was straight out of a horror film. She did recommend some products for me after the facial but wasn't pushy about it. Three days later, my face was not only smooth, but also dewy, soft and glowing. It's amazing. This is definitely my new place to go and have been recommending it to all my friends who have been asking for a great place to get a facial.”

 

5- Michaela P., New York, NY 5/14/2014

“Hannah walked me over the process. She suggested I get a microdermabrasion as well as the facial because of the condition of my skin.

I had a great experience with her and she was kind checking on me to make sure I was fine. Definitely coming back!”

 

6- Maria Jose E., New York, NY 9/20/2015

“I went in with Hannah who looked at my skin and my scars and expressed extreme concern. She went on to tell me that there are areas of my skin that have already developed scar tissue above them which is extremely hard to get into even during an extraction. She did NOT recommend microdermabrasion to me.”

 

7- Birgull O., New York, NY 5/13/2015

“I appreciated the level of detail and effort devoted to the facial.

It's little pricey but honestly once a month facial and microdermabrasion is really worth it. I especially recommend…  Hannah. 

…made my skin look amazing. It's not your typical facial more than that it is clarifying and rejuvenating."

I’ve gained the trust of my clients by recommending the most suitable services and products for their skin. I would never use pressure or try to upsell. The focus is on the final result.
