I bought a Groupon for 10 units of Botox, that was $85, back in July or August. The only reason I purchased the deal was because a good friend of mine had Botox injections there and her experience was good. I've been getting Botox for about four years now. I told the injector that 20 units was my max and that I did not want to be frozen, and I showed her where I wanted to see results. The injector used 10 more units, saying this was the minimum suggested for the forehead. The next day my forehead hurt, the injection sites were sore and I my forehead felt swollen. This was something that I had never experienced before. A couple of days later both of my eyebrows were peaking so intensely, my forehead had broken out so badly in a rash and I was still sore at the injection sites. I called to let them know and they said that an injector would not "touch me for two weeks after a treatment". For two weeks I had to walk around with a rash and looking like a freak until they would fix it. I was told by the receptionist that peaking was normal (never happened to me before) and that I would have to pay for the extra units they would have to inject to remedy my situation.
When I went in for my second appointment, the injector confirmed that I was peaking and that I did in fact have a rash. Her thoughts were that the first injector had used latex gloves (which I'm allergic and it's on my chart) and that must be why I had the rash, redness and itchiness. She couldn't explain to me why I had so much pain at the injection sites. She, again, explained that it was normal to peak and it was an easy fix, but that I would have to pay for the extra units she would have to inject to fix the problem that, in my opinion, was the first injectors fault. It seems obvious to me that she used way too much and that she didn't know what she was doing. In total, I ended up paying $205 for 22 units of Botox! Which is the most I've ever paid in the past with horrendous results.
Fast forward to today ( 2.5 months), I am still peaking and have frozen wrinkles above my eyebrows. My forehead is still broken out, sore and itches. I will never get Botox again! My hunch is that they are probably using generic Botox (thus the allergic reaction), and that they over-inject so that people will have to come back and pay more money to have the problem fixed. Needles to say, the last couple of months have been awful . I look like a broken out, old version of Bette...

My first introduction with Spa Bella came when I purchased a groupon service for Microdermabrasion. This groupon was purchased for myself and my girlfriend to celebrate her birthday. While I have had microdermabrasions, my girlfriend had not. She was skeptical and a bit nervous, I assured her after speaking to Monica Dupen, the director of Spa Bella, that we would be thrilled with our service and results
Our visit was spectacular as we were treated exceptional by a staff of highly skilled and certified esthetician who have years of experience. Even with a discounted groupon, we were treated exceptional from the moment we entered Spa Bella.
We are so pleased, that we both return to Spa Bella for individualized treatments that are designed to make us look our very best. Trust me, this...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI went to Spa Bella in January to enhance my lips and have been beyond satisfied with my results! I have been to this MedSpa in the past for Botox and always had pleasant experiences. The front desk gals are so sweet and are so knowledgeable, with stellar recommendations. Erinn was my lip injector and definitely took care of meāI was anxious as it was my first time, but she explained the process and reassured me the numbing takes care of things. She was right! I had nothing but a positive experience, minimal pain and the process was seamless. We decided on Juvederm, they answered every question I had on the product, aftercare and expectations. From start to finish they held my hand & helped me to feel my best. I absolutely love my lips, and they healed perfectly. This was the confidence boost I needed and I will...
