Lauren Chavez, MD

Dr. Chavez and her staff were fantastic! And for people who are not into reading long reviews, I will just say that it was a great experience, and my eyebrow tattoos are now virtually undetectable to the naked eye after 3 to 4 treatments. Last year I opted to get permanent eyebrow tattoos, which I felt was the best solution for my middle-aged thinning brows (it was not!). After a couple months of unsuccessfully trying to fix/remove them myself (which only made it worse!) I reached out to Dr. Chavez via email in desperation. She took the time to write me a personal email, which convinced me I should at least go in for a consultation. When I went in for my consultation, I was immediately struck by Dr. Chavez’s complete honesty and professionalism. She explained the process and the difficulty of removing cosmetic inks. She did not set unrealistic expectations and explained that this might not be a quick fix. She also explained potential side effects, like potential skin darkening. She started with a small test area to see how my skin would respond, and I believe I waited a couple weeks before beginning treatment. Any skin darkening I may have experienced was short-lived. The layers of cosmetic inks disappeared with each treatment, transitioning from brown to auburn to yellow and finally back to normal skin tones. I am so thankful I took a chance on Clearwaves! Yes, I recommend them!

I have received coolsculpting on several areas. Am very happy with the results. I have gone down several pants sizes. Dr. Chavez's office has been great with everything. Would definitely recommend her to others

I started to become more self aware of my 2 wrist tattoos in my professional field, and started researching laser treatment. I am so happy I found Dr. Chavez and her staff. They are true professionals and the procedures are fast, and not as painful as I thought it would be. Don't wait any longer!

Updated on 15 Nov 2017:
Here are the pictures before my 1st treatment and after my 2nd one. My 'no regrets' on my right wrist is showing a considerable amount of fading again, and this is after the 2nd treatment. But I see the black one on my left wrist, doesn't seem to have changed much after the 2nd treatment.
I go back in January for my 3rd treatment, so I will update this page again afterwards.
