Worth the Flight from NC! My First Botox Experience with Krista at Prick'd Med Spa in St. Louis.
Let me tell you, I don't make impulsive decisions lightly, especially when it comes to my face! But after doing my research and seeing the incredible results Krista at Prick'd Med Spa in St. Louis achieves, I knew a trip from NC was in order for my first ever Botox treatment. And let me tell you, it was SO worth it! From the moment I walked into Prick'd I was impressed. The space is absolutely immaculate – spotlessly clean and beautifully designed. It felt both professional and welcoming.
Then there's Krista. Wow. She's not just incredibly skilled; she has this amazing ability to make you feel completely comfortable and confident. She explained everything thoroughly, and I truly felt like I was in the best hands. The injection process itself was quick and virtually painless. Krista has such a gentle touch and a keen eye for detail. I could tell she was focused on achieving natural-looking results, which was exactly what I wanted. Beyond the exceptional service and skill, the entire vibe at Prick'd is fantastic. It's clear that this is a team of straight-up bad ass babes who are passionate about making women feel amazing. There's a palpable energy of empowerment and positivity that's truly infectious. If you're in the St. Louis area (or even willing to travel like me!), and you're looking for a top-notch med spa experience with someone who is both an artist and a professional, look no further than Krista or any of the ladies at Prick'd Med Spa. My first Botox experience was phenomenal, and I'm already planning my next trip back to St. Louis! Thank you, Krista and the whole team at Prick'd, for making me feel like the best version of...
Read moreI have so many negative things to say about this place, but I waited to share my experience since they were my first with lip filler. After seeing someone else, I can safely say I will never be repeating prickd again. I came in to receive lip filler and my first appointment went ok. They numbed me and gave me something to spit out the numbing solution, but I was numb for over a week after the injections. It really concerned me because everywhere I heard that is way too long to remain numb after lip filler. In addition to that, I had purple bruises that lasted awhile and lumps that looked unattractive. The second time I visited prickd, they barely numbed me and I felt the entire lip filler procedure. In addition to that, the numbing they gave me the second time, they made me swallow and didn’t give me a cup to spit out. The numbing solution made me feel super sick and I was pretty disgusted. The bed side manner also of these people are terrible. She was always on her phone and had an attitude. I mentioned the lumps and she “dissolved” them but weeks later the lumps never dissipated and still looked bad. She mentioned I needed to massage my lips after a certain point, but I swear she nicked some nerve because I was in extreme pain where the major bruising was and it took a solid week for the pain to subside enough for me to comfortably massage my lips. After visiting a new place, and having a completely different and great experience, I can safely say prickd is the last place you want to go for any procedure. Edit per your response, check under Leona Kackley. My...
Read moreIf you’re looking for the best injector in the business you can stop your search here. I spent over a year looking for an injector that had a great deal of experience and could deliver the results I was hoping for. I struck out a few times with other injectors—the work just wasn’t right and didn’t do much to improve my overall look. After being referred to Krista by a plastic surgeon I trust I can honestly say that I am floored not only by my results, but by Krista’s attention to the very last detail. She never rushes and is beyond meticulous with her injection technique. She listens carefully to your goals and then clearly lays out the best plan to achieving them. Additionally, she is such a nice person! She goes out her way to make you feel comfortable and provides numbing prior to injecting (not everyone does this and its a game changer in the overall experience). When you make the decision to invest in your appearance you want a professional who is well versed in the different products and Krista really knows her stuff. I’ve had enough cosmetic injections to know the difference between the good and the great and I’m telling you Krista is one of the greats. There is no one else I’d even think about going to now that I’ve seen for myself what Krista can do. Krista, thanks for helping me feel amazing—the boost in self esteem that I got from your skill set has been so very worth it. Thanks a million for helping this busy momma get her...
