I have been a customer at Corrective Skincare for more than 10 years. The treatments and products are focused on the health and well being of a person's skin. I consistantly get compliments on my skin. The Santa Monica location has all that I have come to expect at Corrective Skincare, a welcoming staff, spotlessly clean, comfortable treatment rooms, and a plentiful supply of their clean, can't live without products. Jennifer is constantly looking to improve her products. I'm so happy to benefit from her commitment! Thank you Jennifer!

Jennifer is amazing! I did one 30-minute virtual appointment with her and she was knowledgeable and helpful. I have to wear a mask 10 hours a day because of my job and I started struggling with my skin this past summer. After a month of following her advices and new routines I can say my skin looks much clearer. I know it takes time and a lot of patience but I'm seeing improvements and I'm really grateful. Super recommended!

Jennifer did an excellent job of educating me on skin. I'm glad I was treated with a very simple, comprehensive system to clear my skin. Although it's a marathon & not a sprint, I feel my skin smooth and appears to be clear within the first week of using the treatment.

I literally did ONE 30-minute virtual appointment with Jennifer and can honestly say that it changed my life and was one of my best purchases of 2020. If you have acne, I can't recommend this place highly enough.
I've had acne since I was a teenager, but mostly a breakout here or there. After going off of hormonal birth control a few years ago, I noticed that my acne flare ups became more frequent, though still fairly minor. It wasn't until last summer when I started to get acne along my cheeks and forehead constantly. I had no idea why it was happening out of the blue and I spent
