Best Skin Cleansing Raleigh Near Me

Paige Saunders: I have been receiving monthly facials from Kathleen for a while now in order to prepare for my wedding this month. Kathleen is absolutely phenomenal. I have already recommended her to numerous friends and can't possibly speak highly enough of her. She does an amazing job, gives great guidance on your skincare regimen, and also has a wonderful, kind, caring personality. Her prices are extremely reasonable for the quality of service and products she provides. I have definitely seen an improvement in my skin!

Stephanie Whedbee: I had my first facial with Kathleen last week and the entire experience was above and beyond my expectations. I have never had a more relaxing hour in my entire life. Just enough description of what was being done and then total zen and relaxation. Kathleen was so sweet and well educated on every question I had. I can't wait to go back!

Shawna Goins-Hayes: Kathleen is very knowledgeable and experienced! Skin looks and feels better. Awesome customer service!

Iwatch Security: Great service from Kathleen who was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was VERY relaxing and I felt a big difference after service, I would highly recommend it and I will be a regular there for sure!

debrazification Miller: Wonderful and relaxing care, highly recommend it!

Robert Kick: I've never had a major facial before, but decided to go as I'll try anything once (or more to prove it). Kathleen is the owner and she is wonderful! She was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She didn't try to sell me a bunch of products and gave me great advice. I left with my skin looking fantastic! She was even thoughtful enough to call me later in the day when she remembered an everyday lotion name one of her other clients told her about. I will return!

Mo Baker: Excellent experience. Facial is amazing and Joi is the ultimate professional/- skilled- knowlegable- and creates amazing therapeutic environment. Highly recommend !!!Dr. Maureen BakerService:Facial massage

Anthony Laffoley: Positive:Professionalism,QualityI highly recommend Joi to anyone looking for a quality facial or a personal treat. Joi cares and this comes through in the service that she provides, taking the experience to a whole new level.

J Hutsell-Starling: Joi is the best. She is highly skilled, has a gentle touch, and uses a top-notch, all natural skin care line. My birthday gift to myself was a Jade microcurrent + facial experience and it was blissful, and my skin is glowing!

Valerie Remhoff: Joi is extremely skilled at what she does. Not only does my skin look fabulous, but it is an incredibly relaxing experience!

Andrea Caceres: I highly recommend Lina for all of your skincare needs. I trust her more than myself when it comes to my skin. She’s so knowledgeable and willing to help you reach your skin goals. I had no idea where to start and I’m so grateful I found her spa. My skin has gotten much brighter, smoother and clear. After another spa cancelled on me last minute b/c the owner didn’t feel like taking in clients anymore, Lina saved my day. Without knowing me she booked me a last minute appointment and serviced me after hours. I haven’t looked at another spa since. I’ve been with her for over 4 years. 10/10 recommend. From chemical peels to brazilians. 10/10.

Diane Dunston: Perfection! Lina spent time talking about how I wanted my eyebrows to look and selecting the right color. I was extremely nervous about the microblading process, but Lina’s attention to detail and meticulous focus put me at ease. I'll recommend Ms. Lina to all my family and friends.

LaDarius Satterwhite: I’ve had the pleasure of trusting Mrs. Lina for over two years now with ALL of facial care needs and products. With 22 years of experience, she’s earned the title of EXPERT in the field of aesthetic care. She’s kind, knowledgeable, patient, and trustworthy. Even when I moved away, she kept my skin care regiment in tact and I would fly in from Atlanta routinely JUST to see her. I suffered from mask acne during the pandemic and can confidently say her treatment plan worked beautifully. There is no quick fix to facial care plans unfortunately. BUT quality work makes the difference and I can proudly say I’m in great hands with Mrs. Lina. If you’re contemplating seeing a professional to aid in your skin care journey, look no further.

Lisa S: Love it!

albertine voza: Definitely 10/10 .. have been getting services from her for a bit over a year, from waxing to facial. Even referred my bf to her for facial. The type of waxing she Lina uses is painless and she also talk you through it and make you comfortable.

Milica Lakobrija: Lina is the best! I've been a customer since 2020 and Lina has always been very professional! She made my first Brazilian so quick and painless. She also always helps me with any facial questions and/or products recommendations! Highly recommend this place!

Ellen Strazis: I had a wonderful experience here. My esthetician was so kind and thoughtful. I had come for a wax and left feeling great about myself mentally and physically. Lina is so quick and my wax took almost no time at all, which was a big change from other estheticians I’ve been too. FABULOUS!!

Jean Brooks: I went there for a micro dermabrasion her work was outstanding she would tell you it’s going to cost you $200 and she would charge you more $300 to $400 I had to stop going it was a big rip off

Shantel Watkins: I don’t know how I feel about this experience yet but I decided to leave a review now in case I do not have a good one to leave later. I do recommend coming here. I don’t recommend you being naïve and uneducated as I was. I booked a For Her package that consisted of a massage, facial and foot detox. I’ve never had any of these services done nor have I been to this establishment before. I went in with no expectations and little to no questions , definitely my mistake. I got there, the ambience was on point! The music, the way I was greeted, the oil diffusers, all of it tied in together so well. I had my massage first. Absolutely NO complaints, Kelly did amazing! Then I got to my facial and everything went so quickly I can’t even tell you how we got from the standard facial to a chemical peel. There were so many steps I couldn’t tell what was what. I had no idea this process would be as painful and restrictive as it is. I should’ve spoken up but I was left in the room for 15-20 minutes alone in between each step. I always find it hard to be rude to someone in the service industry. I am more displeased with myself but definitely displeased with the facial because I apparently allowed myself to be talked into a wayyyy more expensive experience that requires wayyyy more maintenance. I can’t be in the sun, there is a whole process I have to go through to wash my face AND my skin is peeling. I’ve had to go to work all week like this. Now I respect that this is a place of business but as a first time client that knew nothing before arriving I feel a chemical peel was highly unnecessary. I had maybe 3 bumps on my face and some dark spots. That’s it. Also, probably partially my fault as well, I had something to do that afternoon. I booked my appointment at 10am, thinking I’d be gone by 1p, no later, since the services combined were only 2 1/2 hours. I was wrong again. I had to leave without the door detox. I feel if I’d gotten the standard facial I thought I was getting, there would’ve been time for it. I was also charged for all this, of course. So expensive! I paid half at booking only thinking I’d have to pay the other have and it really put a damper on my funds for the day. She THEN made 2 additional appointments. She was going to do that foot detox at a later appointment but I’m not interested. I have since cancelled them both. I just wanted a regular day at the spa but I think I’ll stick to doing spa days at home. This 4 star rating is solely for the massage.

Maria A. F.: Amazing service!!!

Tracy Lee: Lina was amazing. I now have beautiful brows. Well worth it. Thank you

Trinity Gantt: Lina is absolutely amazing. I got to her for my Brazilian wax. She’s so quick and efficient at what she does, you’re honestly in and out. The service is always unmatched. I highly recommend skin essence!

Miz Pizzy: Awesome massage

micole hanulak: I am a satisfied customer that goes to Lena and has sent many people to Lena who were also satisfied.My girlfriend from New York will not having anything done to her face unless it’s Lena. And she’s been to many different specialists for different procedures but none were as good as Lena and that’s why she spends the money to come back to Raleigh from New York. She won’t take a chance of anyone messing her up. She is older and it’s hard to get good results with someone her age.Lena got rid of black spots on my face that she said tend to be with people of color (like Morgan freeman has) and my mother’s face was covered with those spots. They plagued the both of us.My mother and I are satisfied. These are spots I THOUGHT I could never get rid of!!! makeup didn’t cover them, nothing covered them. She totally removed them. A dream come true!! And with very little discomfort. I know we’re all different with skin texture and color. It worked for my mother and me. Lena has improved my skin texture and overproduction of oil and big pores.Am I happy, oh yeaa!It’s not just me saying it, she was awarded the best facial in Raleigh for her microdermabrasion treatment.If you’re interested I have the before and after photos to prove to you the removal of the fibromas , that’s what Lena calls them, people think they can never get rid of.

Cathy Thomas: I highly recommend Lina and Skin Essence. This spa is so relaxing. During the past 6 years I have had many treatments here including waxing, eyelash dyeing, glycolic peels, facials, detox footpaths, exfoliation and recently, microblading of my eyebrows. Lina is an artist and was able to perfectly shape my brows, fill in and match the medium blond color for a more natural, symmetric and youthful look. Everything is so peacefully and hygenically clean.

Amber Alasha: I can't say enough GREAT things about Skin Essence a Day Spa! For years, I searched for an Esthetician that could improve and maintain my skin type-- while properly explaining needed regimens and products. Well, I found that in Skin Essence. I have been a customer here for almost 4.5 years. Lina is extremely knowledgeable and her level of customer service is TRULY unmatched! She cares about her clients and the well being of their skin by creating customized treatment plans for each client. She knows exactly what my skin needs each and every time I come to see her. Honestly, no matter where I am in the USA I either fly or drive back to see Lina--she is JUST that amazing. I can honestly say I leave just as happy as I did the very first time I was ever serviced. Look no further for all of your skin care needs. You won't be disappointed!!!

Cynthia Richwine: Don't go for vichy shower. Table was wobbly shower heads were broken. What a waste. Dishonesty. I told them specifically I wanted the shower if the shower heads weren't working I wanted to cancel and they said no no no the shower heads would be working and the showerheads were not working 6 were working unevenly 2 we're broken the bed was wobbly the whole system needs replaced So dishonest to charge someone for service $80 they cannot provide that service... She did she did offer me another option of some infrared solid dad solid bed that I don't believe the infrared is working I refused pay my money and will not be going back

Veronica Douglas: I highly recommend Lina. I used a Groupon and drove more than an hour for my first micro blading experience. Skin Essence spa has a lovely atmosphere. Lina is a consummate professional with years of experience that shows in her work. I also returned for a touch up. I am very happy with the results and intend to return for a facial. Lina is the real deal.

Jackie Nichole: I have been a client of Skin Essence for a few years now and I am amazed. Excellent customer service. Knowledgeable of my needs and treatments. Great products that are always in stock. Very accommodating to my busy work schedule. I already have my next 2 appointments scheduled with Lena. I have have referred several family, friends, and coworkers.

Jessica Burroughs: Lina is phenomenal, I feel like she cares about getting my skin clean and clear as much as I do. Not only are the treatments amazing and effective, but she takes the time to teach you about your skin. I've struggled with acne for my ENTIRE LIFE! Two rounds of Accutane and every topical in the book, nothing worked. I'm finally seeing the results with Lina's guidance.

Lauren Mancuso: I highly recommend Monica and her Organic Purity Facial, you will not be disappointed! I found Monica's business while googling for organic facials in Raleigh. I've recently become more aware of the toxins that are in our beauty products, foods, household cleaners-just about everything! It's scary stuff and doing more research, I found it's really not difficult to try to live a more natural, non-toxin filled life. Monica's organic skincare provides just that.After researching a few companies, I decided I would call Monica and try to get a better idea of her business and the services she offered. Monica was so friendly, warm, and knowledgable when I spoke with her. I knew this was the place I wanted to go to and knew I would receive an excellent service.Well, after my experience, I can tell you Monica blew my already excellent expectations out of the water. She spent extra time with me to talk about my skincare concerns and goals, answered all my questions I had about making your own skincare products and what this carrier and this essential oil do for you skin. I loved everything about the experience, the facial was amazing, everything was clean and organized, and the price for what you are getting is unbeatable. I can't rave about Monica and her work more, she is a true expert and we are lucky to have someone like her in Raleigh.

Stephanie Chassin: Do not book with Tracy Cloninger PA- she has cancelled on two different appointments for both my daughters in the last 2 months.

Dustin Keaton: Best skin care center in the triangle. Can't say enough good things about Stephanie!!!

Lee Readling: Disappointing experience. It took a month to get an appointment. I went at the scheduled time and was told the provider was out. The (very pleasant) receptionist said I was contacted by phone according to the computer. NO, I was not. Everyone makes mistakes, however it’s still disappointing.

Meri Mitchell: This office did not take the time that they should to really diagnose the issue I came in for. It appears they are just trying to get as many people in and out as they can as fast as they can.It is impossible to get anyone at their front desk on the phone or to call you back in a timely way. I have had to call multiple times each time I needed to schedule an appointment.I saw Dr. Boyse a few times for a skin problem and every time she spent about three minutes talking to me and then left me with her assistant (each time I had to pay $50 to see her). She finally told me my only option was to get a really expensive laser treatment that my insurance wouldn't cover.The issue I was seeing her for turned out to be related to a problem with my thyroid that another doctor figured out. Had Dr. Boyse listened to my other dermatology related symptoms she could have pinpointed this and I could have been diagnosed a lot sooner but she didn't take the time.I have moved to another dermatologist who is wonderful and will not go to Southern Dermatology or Dr. Boyse again or recommend them to anyone.

Patty P: I had a really bad experience with Dr. Boyse on a case that she thought could be cancer. She referred me to a surgeon, and then had her assistant call me to set up an appointment with Duke to get an MRI. I asked to speak to her to explain the reasoning, but she would never speak to me directly and had her office to speak for her. I needed her to complete the paperwork for the MRI and it took a couple of months before it was all resolved. No followup to see how I was doing or anything else. I would not recommend this doctor for anything that was serious.

Jasmine. Jackson: I truly don't understand where the 4.8 Rating is coming from. I don't leave negative reviews but I did not feel comfortable with Dr. Boyse at all. She barely looked at my skin, didn't answer my questions and the medication she prescribed made my skin even worse. It's been a few months and I haven't seen any improvements in case one of you suggests that I be more patient.Everything in the visit was just so rushed.Would not recommend at all!

Teresa Carpenter: Very organized and was seen quickly and had a very thorough exam,. I would highly recommend Dr Boyse

Donald Hong: Timely and courteous

Cynthia Murphy: Very thorough exam, positive and professional staff makes this practice great.

Ann Dean: Very calm and efficient office. Personable and friendly staff. Love Dr. Wilmoth!

Christian Tillotson: Thank you Dr.Briley and staff for changing my life 3

Megan Lord: The staff was wonderful and friendly. They made my son feel very comfortable and provided great insight! Highly recommend.

David Saunders: Dr Laura Briley was very competent and removed a painful corn, when she gave me my yearly check up. Reason for only 4 stars is the awkward phone and text message reminders for my upcoming appt. Got no confirmation, when I'd pressed "1" to confirm, via phone. Text message had bad graphics; option for responding to confirm was almost hidden; it was not separated from the option to cancel; plus, requiring a "1" to confirm is too different for the typical option of responding Y/N

Wendy Johnson: I was so impressed at the thoroughness and professionalism of everyone at Southern Dermatology.

Dian Hovland: Dr Briley and her assistant were caring and knowledgeable with my care. I was taken back quickly and they took care of my issue. Recommend Dr. Briley and Southern Dermatology to everyone.

John Adams: Check-in was quick and easy and I was called right away. Had to wait in examining room only a few minutes before physician arrived. Physician answered my questions and reassured me about some concerns I had. Checkout and scheduling next appointment was equally quick and easy. All personnel were personable and helpful. It was an outstandingly easy and efficient experience for health care in this country.

Les Kafel: As first appointments go, this one was excellent. Check in went smoothly. I was seen promptly. Dr. Wilmoth was the Dermatologist who saw me and performed a thorough exam. Follow-up appointment was set up for a convenient time. I would recommend this practice for someone looking for a dermatologist in the Raleigh area.Second appointment went as well as the first. No long wait times. Courteous and professional staff. Thorough exam and understandable explanations. I highly recommend Southern Dermatology and Skin Center.2022 I reaffirm my confidence in this practice and recommendation for anyone in the area looking for a dermatologist.

Jim & Laura Kay: The only doctor’s office I go to that gets you in and out in a timely manner!

Pamela Edwards: Great provider!

Jane Scherr: Everyone was very professional and kind.
