What Our Clients Are Saying

I met with Courtney while doing a 3 pack of micro-needling. She is fantastic, she has beautiful skin herself, so you immediately want to know all her secrets. She takes her time to understand what your main goals are in your cosmetic journey and once determined, she is great at explaining the steps of your procedure. I started taking care of my skin at a very young age but I’ll tell you, she has given me information on different products and ways to treat myself to spa-like treatments at home. I even involved my family with the jade-rollers I purchased. My favorite part of the micro-needling session was when she applied a serum, face mask and rolled my face with refrigerated jade-rollers. I will return for more treatments and you should book right away if you haven’t visited – it’s worth every penny!

Courtney is awesome and very knowledgeable. Courtney helped my daughter and had great results on the first visit. Courtney explained the process really well and my daughter was very happy. I would highly recommend Courtney to my family and friends.

I met with Courtney Aldridge and cannot recommend her services enough. She is an EXPERT. She helped with multiple skin conditions. One of which has been chronic for the past 10 years. Absolutely brilliant professional with an incredible studio to boot!

She also was able to fit me in on short notice. Definitely don’t hesitate to contact her for a free consultation. Best part is you don’t have to worry about the stuffy gatekeepers that book you 8-9 months out! 🙂

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Courtney.! I am an esthetician and come to Courtney for micro needling regularly and recently finished up my 14 week process of their herbal tea remedies and love my results! They always take such great care of me and have helped the overall health of my skin. Goodbye pesky hormonal breakouts! I recommend all my clients to Courtney and always look forward to my own appointments too!

CB

I’ve been seeing Courtney for a few months now, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. After each visit, I receive constant compliments about my skin. They use only natural products made from scratch using herbs, which I absolutely love. The non-toxic approach to skin health aligns perfectly with my values, and the results speak for themselves. My pigmentation is almost completely gone after just four visits, and the best part is that there are no injections or harmful creams involved. Courtney’s expertise and the quality of care is truly outstanding. Highly recommend!

LN

Courtney really simplified all of my concerns I was having about my 1 year olds skin. She is very knowledgeable in her field and I was impressed with how quickly she was able to deliver her knowledge to me and in an organized manner. I honestly wish I met her sooner. She recommended some amazing products to bathe and moisturize my baby with and when I tell you she’s never been softer…wow.  I never realized how dry and irritated my daughter’s skin was until I started using the products she recommended and felt/saw the difference! As someone who has struggled with eczema myself, I used the moisturizer on an itchy dry spot on my hand as well and it cured it overnight! I am so so grateful 🙏
