Services
PDO Thread Lift
A minimally invasive procedure using polydioxanone threads to lift sagging skin and stimulate collagen production. Ideal for cheeks, jawline, neck, and body, it offers natural tightening with minimal downtime. Patients see immediate results that improve over weeks as collagen develops.
Botox Injections
Targeted injections to reduce dynamic wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. Commonly used for crow's feet, forehead lines, and frown lines, results appear within days and last 3-4 months with proper maintenance.
Dermal Fillers
Hyaluronic acid-based injections to restore facial volume, enhance contours, and smooth wrinkles. Effective for cheek augmentation, lip plumping, and correcting under-eye hollows, with results visible immediately and lasting 6-18 months.
Laser Pigment Removal
Advanced laser treatments targeting hyperpigmentation, sunspots, and birthmarks. Stimulates skin renewal while breaking down excess melanin, resulting in clearer, more even-toned skin across face and body areas.
Under Eye Correction
Specialized fillers or threads to address under-eye hollows and dark circles. Restores youthful brightness by filling shadows and tightening loose skin, with minimal swelling and immediate return to daily activities.

I came here for a Groupon laser hair removal treatments. The laser she uses works so well and I was so happy with my results. I only got 5 sessions on my Groupon and you need like 9-10 so I purchased more sessions. Definitely worth it!

Horrible customer service. Scheduled a zoom consultation and the Dr. never showed up. Called the office and they said " maybe she's busy" wasted my whole day by scheduling this around it, just for them to be inconsiderate of my time and I received no call back. Completely dissatisfied.

If you want excellence in non invasive cosmetic techniques and treatments this clinic is your place. Doctor Kim performs all procedures herself, you get the real deal here. She's proficient in everything. She's a true professional with a great bed side manner. She's simply a pleasure to know and I trust her explicitly. Not to mention how warm and kind she is.

This office is gorgeous, sparkling clean, and Dr Kim is really knowledgeable and really skilled at everything that she does. I've gone there for all kinds of procedures, but the one I've liked the most is the stem cell transfer. I barely felt the needles (as you are numbed) & it was a lot less complicated and painful than I thought it would be. I will write another review in 3 months when the effects are much clearer, but I'm really excited!

I did Botox, face threads and microdermabrasion with Dr. Nancy Kim. it was very smooth experience and each time she did and amazing job on my face. The office was always clean and the staff were very professional and sweet. Dr's approach and treatment was very soothing and efficient. I would recommend them to anyone.

Yikes. I never leave bad reviews but I feel the need to warn others. This place is not clean or sanitary or legit. The whole experience was super unwelcoming, I was left in the room for 45 mins, and then the doctor didn't talk to me or clean my skin at all. I would try to talk to the doctor and she would literally just ignore me. Also the place is HEAVILY fragranced, like what? Get with the times.
