I’ve been getting laser treatment for my beard and hydrafacials by Cynthia for the last few months now and the results are insane! She is very meticulous and I always leave with great results. She showed me some products as well to help achieve my goal and they have been working wonders. Highly recommend Cynthia!

I visited AES Med Spa for the first time after being referred by a friend. I received the Glow & Sculpt Package and my experience was so relaxing. Carolina did my 60 min massage and Cynthia actually did my facial. Both women were awesome and I felt comfortable during my treatments. The space was beautiful, scheduling is easy, and the staff is friendly and welcoming! Overall, I had a 10/10 experience!
