Salinas Valley Medical Aesthetics

Rachael was wonderful!! She is very gentle and explains each step of the procedure. I am very happy with my results! Receptionist was very welcoming upon my arrival as a new client. Highly recommend this place😊

Very satisfied with all of Rachel's work. She listens to your needs and concerns and delivers results you want. Professional environment all around and would recommend them for any of your cosmetic needs.

Awesome experience! Injector is amazing and very personable listens to exactly what you want and need does not try to push extra things onto you for a sale.

Very friendly staff. Rachel explains everything very well. My procedure was pain free and no after headache. Would definitely recommend to my friends.

I’ve had the absolute best experience here!! Rachel and staff are amazing kind and friendly. Luz and Rachel always takes time to explain everything from procedures to skincare products. Highly recommend. I have struggled with acne and acne scarring for most of my adult life. Rachel has guided me through getting my skin smoother and healthier. I feel more confident about my appearance and my skin looks 10yrs younger and sooo much smoother all thanks to Rachel and her expertise. She truly is amazing!!!

Office staff was so helpful and Nurse Rachel was amazing! Very minimal pain and love love love the results. Definitely recommend!!

I do not recommend this medical spa for any services. Over the last few weeks, I have watched my face go from beautiful to deformed due to improper injection techniques and not diluting my Hyperdilute Radiesse enough. The provider stated they used a 1:2 ratio in my neck when it should be 1:4, which is why I have lumps all over it. I found out just how many calcified lumps I had when I had to get a CT scan with contrast and found out the hard way they show up on a scan, unbelievable (I could have let the doctor know before they did it if I had known, but I had to get a second scan to rule anything out). My primary provider does a 1:4, and it is on almost all information that a 1:4 ratio is the way to do the treatment properly (For treating neck laxity, a higher dilution (like 1:4) is often preferred as it allows for more even distribution of the product across the area). But they did a 1:2, so I have a lumpy neck now (not very attractive). For the under-eye filler, which I was reassured Rachel knew how to perform better than anyone (her words), both eyes looked different. The right side had an odd sack of filler under the right eye, and the left side stayed bruised for a very long time and was lumpy and uneven (both sides were not only different; they made my face look horrible, and it aged me). To make matters worse, I had a Hyperdilute Radiesse treatment done under my chin; I now have a heavy pocket filled with calcium (again, because it is not being diluted enough). I gave the provider a chance to refund the under-eye filler (which I paid $900 to dissolve, which she assured me she would take care of when we met, but she did not. So, I paid $1,200 for a treatment that deformed my face and $900 to have it all dissolved so I could look normal again. This means I am $2,100 out of pocket and will need to return to my primary provider to get things looking good again, so yes, more money. Even after meeting with the owner to discuss my issues, which she apologized for and agreed that my treatments were no good, she still only provided me with the last two Hyperdilute Radiesse treatments that I never received. Still, even that was not the right amount (it should have been $1,600, not $1,500).  I took time out of my day to meet with the owner on a Saturday, who took pictures of my face and wrote a note to my main provider about how to reduce the LUMPS on my neck from the improper injection technique by Rachel. It pains me to put this on a review, but I have allowed enough time to give this Medical Spa the time to make it right (not to mention my own time). I knew something was wrong, so I emailed on November 8, 2024, at 8:43 a.m. The office staff ignored my first email, so I had to call to explain how bad my face looked. She said to wait another week (which had already been three) to see what happens. Wait another week; I'm sorry. It's my face, for crying out loud. I am beside myself in explaining why they would not do the right thing. Please know you need to be careful here! Avoid this place if you can. They say they can do something but overpromise and underdeliver. What they did to my face was unacceptable, and I had to tell others what happened.
