Karlene is AMAZING as always!!!!
Had my first visit at Aesthetic and had the BEST experience. Raegan was SO sweet, knowledgeable and sent me home with some samples and lots of tips for my skin concerns. She tailored everything to my skin and no lie I got a compliment the first stop I made after the appointment! The barista asked where I got my facial and of course I plugged this med studio. Easy 5 stars ⭐️
