“My friends brought me here to get Botox & I am beyond happy & impressed with my injections. I saw McKenna & she was AMAZING. It’s been 2 weeks & my forehead looks so good. All the front desk girls were all so nice, friendly & welcoming. Molly told me about products at the front & there was no sales pressure for anything at all just knowledge. Def will be coming here in the future for all my medspa needs.”
“McKenna was wonderful. She has a great eye for facial balancing. She was thorough in her consultation and I felt confident in her skill set. She did not over suggest anything and i left feeling how I wanted.”
“I highly recommend San Diego Aesthetics and MedSpa. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. It can be uncomfortable in medical environments but I felt very comfortable and cared for. Kristen did an incredible job with my procedure! I love my results !! She took her time, explained what she was going to do prior to doing it and she consistently checked in with me to make sure I was tolerating the procedure well. The clinic is just beautiful. It tastefully decorated and incredibly clean as well. I will definitely be back for any future needs.”
“I had such a great time here doing a group appointment! The nurse we had, Kristen, was wonderful. I was a little bit nervous getting lip filler for the first time, and Kristen was such a calming presence. My lips are still very swollen at the moment but I’m loving them so far! The new location on Baltimore is clean and spacious. I’ll definitely be back!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about San Diego Aesthetics Med Spa and my nurse, Molly. I’m not usually one to write reviews, but I wanted to share this for anyone who, like me, was looking for a trusted place with highly skilled nurses. I searched for a long time as a total newbie to the Botox world, and the amazing reviews are what finally led me here. Let me just say, those reviews are spot on. The space itself is beautiful, clean, and instantly welcoming. Total good vibes the moment you walk in. And Molly… she is truly exceptional. She takes the time to explain everything, answer every question, and make sure I feel completely confident and informed. She’s not only incredibly skilled, but also genuinely kind and easy to talk to. If you’re looking for someone who checks all the boxes, Molly is your girl. She’s an absolute gem. I’m so glad I found this place and honestly can’t recommend it enough!”
