For many months before I discovered Gentlestar Medspa, I was breaking out like never before. I'm in my late 20's. A combination of work, relationship, family stress, late nights, and coffee binges were probably the cause for that. Despite trying to relax and sleep early, the breakouts didnt stop. I tried many different solutions recommended by friends to try to improve the situation, but it never worked. If anything, it made my face look worse. Soon I didnt even want to acknowledge what was happening to my face. I didnt want to see people because I didnt want to answer questions or hear people's suggestions anymore. I was even approached by complete strangers and their first question to me was, "Are you doing anything for your face?" I felt embarrassed and frustrated. I decided I needed professional help. After reading Citysearch reviews for dermatologists, I didnt think it was the type of service I wanted. I looked at some related references and discovered Gentlestar. I read the reviews carefully to see if Gentlestar seemed like it could help me and if there were references for Asian skin. It did, and I made my call. The office has a chic and relaxing decor. Nikko and Craig were extremely welcoming. My first facial appointment with Craig lasted approximately 2 hours. Though he had a lot of work ahead of him, he was so friendly, patient, and very thorough. He was extremely informative about skin care, giving me tons of tips. At the end, I completely trusted his suggestions. It has been over three months now, and my face has improved dramatically. After about 8 weeks of treatment, I didnt get anymore serious breakouts. Today my skin feels softer, it looks more moisturized, and I feel a lot better about myself. I am very thankful to have found Gentlestar! I hope my review will help other individuals discover this wonderful medspa as well.
Pros: Very close to BART, very friendly and accommodating staff
