Aesthetics Hawaii

My first visit to Aesthetics Hawaii was SUPER pleasant! The receptionists were very welcoming. Jenn took the time to talk to me, explain the TMJ botox procedure, show me how effective it can be, answered my questions and concerns, and was really relatable and approachable. She took note that I'm afraid of needles and was patient the entire time. When Dr. Yew came in, he had already gone over with Jenn what we discussed so he was aware of my questions and readily provided me with advice and tips on how he will help me rewire the anxiety I feel about needles. I had requested to use numbing cream and they never once told me "no" or dissuade me; rather, both Dr. Yew and Jenn provided me with encouragement and a very comfortable setting where they set up a meditation app to help with breathing exercises. Doctor was very mindful to hide the syringe from me, which was such a thoughtful gesture. The two of them make an amazing team- They never rushed me, I didn't feel any pain, my anxiety level was really low (no cold sweats, no fidgeting), and while they guided me with the breathing exercise, Dr. gave me all the shots- and it was done just like that! Again, no pain and super minimal anxiety. It's too early to see how much relief I will get from my TMJ pain (it will take 3-5 days for results) but I know from this visit alone that I will be returning. It's no wonder why Aesthetics Hawaii has great reviews. Dr. Yew and Jenn are such positive, kind, and caring people. The two of them truly made my day!

Doctor Yew and his team are amazing. The office is well run and the staff is always kind. At my first appointment with Doctor Yew, I wanted under eye fillers, but he explained why I didn’t need them (I don’t). In my past experience other injectors would just take my money and do it, but Doctor Yew is different. He cares about the individual and only recommends for a true need. I’ve been going to Aesthetics Hawaii for 3 years for a variety of treatments- botox, filler, skin pen, facials. Every treatment has made a difference and helped me look and feel my best. Dr Yew and his team take the time to get to know their patients and genuinely care. In the last year, my husband and I have been doing fertility treatments so I brought it up to understand what was safe and what I should stop doing now as well as later. Doctor Yew showed so much care for me as an individual and what I was going through, sharing something he does is to be thankful ahead of time for blessings from God yet to come. I never thought of that- I always just worried and hoped ‘if’ it would happen. I went for an aesthetic treatment, got great results but also left more hopeful in a happier more grateful state. What you find in Aesthetics Hawaii is rare- a genuine care for the individual and a team with a bigger goal beyond just excellent aesthetic treatments, to make you look, feel and live your very best. Thank you Doctor Yew and team. The photos are right before and right after receiving temple filler from Doctor Yew. My temples were starting to get that concave ‘peanut head’ look and the filler made a big difference in achieving a natural, more youthful look.

I was given the RHA1 for my upper lip lines by Dr Yew and it looks great! He explained the procedure step by step and put me at ease. The numbing process is always important for comfort and I felt very comfortable during the procedure with numbing and breathing exercises he shows you before starting the process! I’m loving the results and plan on getting more treatments with Dr Yew!!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Yew for a few years now and am always happy with the results. I’m in my late 30s and most recently came in with concerns about signs of aging on my face. Dr. Yew and his assistant took their time to explain the causes and treatment options. Dr. Yew even talked me out of some unnecessary treatments that I was considering such as lip and facial fillers. I ultimately decided on Sculptra, which was quick and relatively painless. It’s not a comfortable procedure but Dr. Yew and his assistant do a great job of creating a relaxing environment. It has now been about 6 months and the results look good- natural and long lasting. I definitely recommend paying them a visit. Dr. Yew books up 3 months in advance.

Dr. Yew is amazing. I am new to Botox and fillers. He put me at ease, answered all my questions, and did not push any procedures that I did not want. His philosophy is take it slow. Build a foundation for a more natural look. Highly recommend! As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.

I was amazed. I am terribly afraid of needles; I’m a real cry baby when it comes to pain. I had the most miraculous experience as I did breathing exercises and listened to worship music. Dr. Yew knows that I’m a pastor and the things that he talked to me about is what I tell people that I counsel. Dr. Yew was very respectful, yet truthful. They took pictures of me smiling through the whole process. I didn’t feel any pain I was just at peace. I felt totally safe and knew that everything was going to be great.

I heard of Aesthetics Hawaii through my girlfriend, which she highly recommended, I came here to get some Botox work done, this was my first time here, and I was pleasantly surprised. Upon entering, I was greeted with sincerity and Aloha. The front desk staff, Emily, walked me through the form filling process with ease. After about a 5-minute wait, I was greeted by Charity, who put my mind at ease with a very warm greeting. Upon entering her room, she walked me through exactly what we were going to do, and even asked my preferences, and if there were any areas that I wanted to work on. Throughout the entire procedure, Charity was very clear with every step in what she was doing, which very much put my mind at ease, as this was my first time doing this procedure. When we were done, she explained the healing process and what to expect. Sure enough, after a few days, the work she had done was perfect! Everything looked so natural, which is what I was looking for. They definitely put as much attention on the experience as they do the procedure. Thank you, Charity, I will definitely be back.

Dr. Yew is a board-certified physician with exceptional expertise. Depending on the state, various individuals can perform non-invasive procedures like injecting botox or fillers, but a board-certified physician is the only person qualified to inject anything into my face and, after visiting Dr. Yew’s office several times, he is the only physician I trust to perform these procedures. Although “non-invasive,” it is still your face. As a PhD and scholarly researcher myself, I conducted much research to find not only a qualified physician, but a doctor who is knowledgeable and who aims to help individuals who are seeking these services to be better versions of themselves and not have an unrealistic appearance. Safety and cleanliness were also of the utmost priority for me, especially as I sought these services for the first time during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Yew takes time with his patients and encourages you to think about what kind of outcome you wish to have and what is the best course of action based on your already beautiful self! He encourages starting conservatively, with a small amount (In my case, of fillers for lips and botox for fine lines between the brows.) and seeing how you like these results, and then, at your subsequent visit, you can discuss with him as he takes the time again to sit and talk with you and answers any questions, concerns, or inquiries you may have regarding how you wish to move forward in your next visit. He actively listens and responds not only with words, but with photos and visuals to help you understand various outcomes. One of my favorite aspects of Dr. Yew and his treatment team is the incorporation of mindful meditation, visualization techniques, and mindful breathing to help you to truly relax during the procedure. As someone who incorporates mindfulness and meditation into my daily life practices, I appreciate this unique approach that Dr. Yew encourages for his patients. It may seem a little odd at first if you are unfamiliar with mindful breathing, however, giving it a try with Dr. Yew’s guidance, is definitely to your advantage as research shows that meditation and mindful breathing help to reduce pain and anxiety.He and his staff are all incredibly kind, sincere, and welcoming. I have been seeing Dr. Yew every few months for 1.5 years and cannot imagine ever going to another office for these services (lip filler, botox). He is meticulous and keeps records including photos from various angles from each visit. This is integral as he can share them with you and you can visually see the progress and the evolution over time, and make an informed course of action for your current visit, collaboratively, with Dr. Yew. Fillers are not very painful, but they can be if you do not seek out a professional and Dr. Yew’s progressive techniques do wonders for pain management during the procedure, especially if you are feeling a little nervous, which is a perfectly normal feeling! You can read a myriad of horror stories with a simple google search as there are several ill-equipped and inexperienced individuals performing these services. Even experienced physicians may have poor bedside manner. When receiving a consultation about these services, you want someone who asks questions, actively listens, and is dedicated to the positive outcomes you will have as a result of aesthetic treatments.I am so incredibly thankful I found Dr. Yew and his staff. They make each visit a respite from my busy life. I also enjoy talking with Dr. Yew and his staff and learning more about these procedures as there are often new products to try and I trust Dr. Yew and appreciate the knowledge he shares when making a decision that is impactful. Dr. Yew and his team ensure that Aesthetics Hawaii is a safe haven that empowers patients to make informed decisions and ensures we are comfortable during any procedure. Take some mindful breaths and if you are considering aesthetics procedures, schedule a consultation with Dr. Yew, so you may experience these benefits and make your own informed decisions.As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway Updated on 17 Jul 2022: I realized it might be helpful to see before photos of my lips. Dr. Yew is very conservative when it comes to this treatment and it has been a slow progression for me just as others have noted in reviews. The first photo I posted with my review was from March 2021 and I had only seen Dr. Yew once in January of 2021 for my first visit and just a little filler to see how it would go. Now, I have been every 3-4 months for updates that are also conservative, sometimes adding very little to the lips. I also go for botox on a stubborn 1 line (not the “elevens” but 1 between the eyebrows). This has also been amazing and a great confidence booster for me! Updated on 17 Jul 2022: After seeing Dr. Yew once every 3-4 months, 5 appointments since my first in January 2021, this is where I’m at currently. A slow progression. This photo taken in April and my appointment had been in previous appt. had been February 2022. I have so much more confidence and I also notice my lips look much different and fuller if I am properly hydrated, have used lipstick/gloss etc. I still use a plumping gloss as well.

I feel that I found my angel. I was lucky enough to stumble upon Aesthetics Hawaii while searching for the Best Facial Injectors in Hawaii. Dr. Yew came highly-recommend, highly-rated, and was highly-qualified. So I made my consultation appointment. Most Med-spa's, Dermatologist, Plastic Surgeon Offices, and Aesthetic centers jump right to "what would you like". The typical conversation of freeze this, tighten here, and can you lift that. Dr. Yew DOES NOT DO THIS. He is a visionary. He studies your face. He and his team take a wide rang of photo's and measurements, also while palpating your facial muscles and structure. He then downloads your images into his very own designed software. He then VISUALLY goes over all modifications you would like and what would look best. With his software, he then he shows you what these modifications will look like. Dr Yew also has the best bedside manner. His approach is very spiritual and calming. I leave not only looking refreshed but feeling more mentally refreshed and connected with my beliefs. Mind Body and Soul. Dr. Yew is the future of medicine and he's available now. Do not think twice. Aesthetics Hawaii and Dr. Yew is the Best on Oahu!

This was a 5-star experience from the minute I walked in the office. The staff was warm and friendly, and Charity patiently answered all my Q’s so I felt comfortable during my process. She didn’t push unnecessary procedures & explained what to expect. I did Dysport for crows feet and Restalyn Kisse filler for my lips, and 3 days later I looked “refreshed”- exactly the effect I was looking for. Charity has excellent injecting technique & is knowledgeable with pain management. I’m definitely returning to her when I need refreshing again.
