Dr. Espinoza is well trained in all aspects of medical aesthetics. She has an amazing relaxing Med spa. It’s modern and filled with up to date products. It’s well staffed. Dr. Espinoza and her employees explain all the options at a free consultation and never are pushy as Other Med Spas are. I highly recommend and Nominate Dr Espinoza and her team at La Chele.This review was created as part of a nomination to the RealSelf I Love My Injector Campaign.

I have been so fortunate to be a patient of Dr. Espinoza’s for the past four years and can confidently attest that my experience at La Chelé has been nothing short of perfect. As someone who has struggled with acne for over ten years, I have come to know that Dr. Espinoza has given me the best available treatment options with her use of innovated technology. It is a great feeling to have a doctor who is willing to work with you and think outside of the box in order to reach your skin care goals. My great experience at La Chelé does not only lay with Dr. Espinoza, but with her amazing staff, as well. As a client of esthetician Alex, I know I am in the best hands and that I'm working with someone who really cares about improving my skin. I could not be more thankful for all the things La Chelé has done for me over the years. Not only has my skin improved dramatically - through laser treatments and makeup tutorials - but more importantly, the staff at La Chelé has helped me reach a confidence level that I never thought I could reach. I could never recommend La Chelé enough!

Each time I visit LaChele Med Spa, I am treated to a relaxing afternoon in an exquisite spa, coupled with cutting edge technique performed by, whether Dr. Espinoza or another staff member, leaders in the field. This is the place to be. Reception is friendly yet efficient. I don't think I've ever had to wait more than five minutes!

I was referred by a colleague over 7yrs ago after seeing her results from Botox, Fillers and Facials. She looked so natural and I knew This Med Spa would be a good choice for me. Dr Lisa Espinoza listens and understands our needs and achieves excellent results with a gentle touch. Her lovely personality puts you at ease! The Esteticians are skilled for laser facials. The RNs are skilled injectors. Many thanks to her entire staff always professional and helpful. I drive 1+ hrs and always look forward to my visit. Thsnk you!

I’ve been going to see Dr Lisa for years now. She is the BEST person with Botox and the only one I trust with my face. Her staff is friendly and highly professional. I’ve had various procedures done and all yield great results. The Botox will last me 2.5-3 months. I use it mainly for brow lifting. Highly recommended!!

I have a fair amount of tattoos, but I don't know what I was thinking with this one. The sad thing is, I love the artist who did this, but it didn't turn out how I wanted. It doesn't look like his other work. I hate the shading and how it lays on my arm. It all started with a Friday the 13th tattoo I got on a whim with my best friend (you can't see it in the picture). For whatever reason, I got it on my arm. It's small. I hated it after a few weeks. So what do I do? Get a bigger tattoo around it, of course! So on Feb 3rd 2017 I got this monstrosity inked into my skin. I must have had a serious lapse of judgement for a few weeks. When I got home and removed the wrapping several hours later, I cried. I cried for days until I realized I could get it removed. Why the hell didn't I think of getting the Friday the 13th tattoo removed before this happened?! It would have been much easier and cheaper. Hindsight = 20/20. I let the tattoo heal and immediately scheduled an appointment: consultation and first treatment all in one. I am currently two treatments in. My last was two days ago. I keep dreaming the tattoo is much lighter, but then I wake up and it's still there. As of now, I'm hoping for complete clearance. I'm open to getting a cover up, if necessary, but I'll see where I am after a few more treatments before I cross that bridge. (*note- the cost I entered is per treatment of a 6" tattoo, plus the smaller ~2" tattoo I mentioned) Updated on 30 Apr 2017: They said treatment 3 is when you see the most dramatic changes. I'm trying to stay positive. This is going to be a long emotional road. Updated on 5 May 2017: The tattoo is peeling now and a little itchy. I think I see the ink breaking up in some of the darker shaded areas. The lines in the bud look like they're starting to break up too. Don't think the darker outlines are going to budge quite yet, but let's see what the next 5 weeks bring. Updated on 18 May 2017: Just shy of 3 weeks post treatment 2. Not seeing much difference. I need to stop looking at it every 10 minutes. Treatment 3 is scheduled for 6/23. Updated on 29 Jun 2017: Just wanted to post a little update before treatment 3, which is today. The appointment was initially supposed to be the 23rd, but I postponed a week. I picked up an 8 hour shift tomorrow morning and I hope it won't be too painful (my job is active-- RN in an ER). Updated on 29 Jun 2017: Updated on 2 Jul 2017: I had 3rd treatment on Thursday. The blistering is minor this time and I'm nowhere near as swollen and sore... I hope that doesn't mean it wasn't as effective?? I took 650mg Tylenol about an hour before and it really made a difference in the hours afterward. The laser tech said she thinks most of the shading will disappear this time. Let us hope! Updated on 30 Aug 2017: Here I am 8 weeks after my third treatment and I'm definitely seeing progress! I'm going to try to wait longer between sessions because I think the results didn't really become obvious until week 5,6 or so. I've also stopped staring at it obsessively which I think helps, hah! I'm aiming to get my next session around week 12 or so. My skin in this area has become so broken out and it's so difficult resisting the urge to pick at it! Updated on 31 Mar 2018: I had my 4th treatment in October and had my 5th treatment in mid-Feb. Every 4 months is the best way to go about this, for results, healing, and my wallet! It may be hard to see in the photo, but the lines are breaking up. The laser tech did a little experiment with the thickest line to see if going over it twice with the laser would help it budge. I can't see the lines breaking up, but the ink looks hazy, if that makes sense. I'm planning my next treatment for mid-June.
