Ambrosia MedSpa

I had my facial and microdermabrission with Susie today, it was great experience. She was fun to talk and so knowledgeable, and what i love about her was that she wasn't forcing me to sell their products unlike most of other salons and spas.
The atmosphere was clean and relaxing. I went with Groupon but will definitely go back to them for more services. Thanks Susie and thanks Groupon for introducing this place to me! :)

I purchased the Groupon for laser hair removal at Ambrosia. The laser hair removal itself went fine, and all of the aestheticians I had were professional in performing the actual services.

My gripe with Ambrosia has more to do with the customer service. I can't quite put my finger on it, but the customer service was just off.

First of all, the waiting area is almost nonexistent and the magazine choices are pamphlets for services and trade magazines-- not exactly fantastic reading. Second, the aesthetician would come out and whisper to the receptionist about whether I had arrived yet, when I was 5 feet away. It was just odd.

Finally, they must train their staff to interact with you in a sugary sweet way. I felt like they were talking to me in the voice people often reserve for small children and small dogs-- I am neither.

I can't say enough good things about this place and the staff, even after a year!

I have always wanted to be able to go make-up free (as in no foundation) but my skin was so bad there was just no way. However, today I only wear a mineral sunscreen thanks to Ambrosia.

That is a really big deal and makes every penny spent there worth it.

I am a frequent spa-goer, and Ambrosia was a very pleasant experience.

When I arrived, there was a person ahead of me occupying the receptionist, but a friendly Esthetician came out and offered to check me in.

I began my paperwork in a pleasant consultation room, where my Esthetician asked me what my skin goals were. She was extremely nice and not pushy at all.

I loved my treatment! She used Eminence products, which I had only experienced a few times before, but I loved all the scents of everything. My Esthetician was very knowledgable and was good at letting me know what she was doing.

Two complaints: one, my esthetician used an extractor tool on me for my extractions. It hurt realllly bad (My eyes were watering like crazy) and the results of it weren't any better than when I am extracted by an Esthetician using gloved hands and no tool. Also, I have red marks on my face, (I'm sure they'll be gone by tomorrow) but when I've been extracted without tools, I never experience that.

Two: The music was kind of funny...like aggressive violin and piano. But that certainly isn't a deal breaker.

Overall, the facility is beautiful, the service was outstanding, and the prices are fair. Definitely give them a try!

Ambrosia is a brand new med spa in Juanita Village. By nature, I'm opposed to these types of places on principle alone. "Swinging by for some Botox" is creepy to me. Maybe my tune will change in 25 years, who knows.

However, with gift certificate in hand, I booked an appointment for a Classic Facial with Bridget, gritting my teeth at the $95 price tag.

Ambrosia is decorated in hues of purple. A little too "grape" for my taste, but the place is brand new, and sparklingly clean, so points for that. The front desk seemed disorganized. The paperwork was incorrect, and the technician didn't know how to work the computer once the receptionist stepped away. However, since the place is new, I'll cut them some slack.

The facial was probably on of the most relaxing 60 min. I've ever spent. Great neck and scalp massage, soothing mask, steam treatment and she even powdered me afterwards so I could go back to work. I had to drag myself off the table at the end I was so relaxed!

My skin looked refreshed afterwards, and my laugh lines were definitely softer. However, if I choose to go back, it will be for the relaxation element, rather than the vanity aspect. It's worth at least one visit to Bridget, even at $95 a pop.

My review services from 2009-2011. I was a spa member for two of these years. Meaning I paid a monthly membership price and received a microderm or facial monthly plus other discounted services and botox.
I LOVE this place! The staff was amazing! They always remembered everything about me and acted like a good friend. They were so helpful and always made me look my best. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a med spa. Their prices are reasonable and their touch and services are amazing!
I MISS this place! I moved to San Diego two years ago and am still searching for a good med spa. :-( HELP!?

I did a lot of research before going with Ambrosia. Bridget and Marcy were key in my decision to go with this med spa over the others I had contacted. They answered my questions, gave me the information I needed to compare Ambrosia with other places, and are so friendly and approachable.

I've had laser hair removal and microderm abrasion thus far, and I'm actually looking forward to my next appointments. I've had laser hair removal in the past, but none of my past experiences were as good as the one at Ambrosia. Marcy was precise and informative. She has a process that she follows that lets you know she is being thorough and you are getting the best possible treatment.

If you have any doubts about where to go for laser hair removal, look no further than Ambrosia.

4 star for the aestheticians actually doing the services (i've only been to 2 people but they've both been good).
1 star for the front-desk staff. Unfortunately I don't have the name of the girl I spoke to, I think it started with a C...completely rude and unprofessional, talking with an "i-don't-really-give-a-S%#@!- what-you're-saying" attitude.
And this is after I've been going there for over 6 months!! Talk about treating your clients properly. As soon as my pre-paid package is done, I will definitely not be going back. There are a ton more medspas in the the area with just-as-accomplished clinicians and front desk staff with the decency and intelligence to treat clients with courtesy.

Susie gave me one of the best facials I have ever had. She explained everything and was very professional. I looked great when it was done and she even sent me a follow up email to check on me. FANTASTIC

The receptionist was horrible. It was impossible making an appointment and when I gave her my groupon she acted as if it was the worst thing on earth. Makes me embarrassed to use it! She was so rude and I could not believe this person is in customer service. Tip: make appointments online since being on the phone with her is definitely
a burden on her as well

Sue was amazing and very knowledgeable. The next day I had people complimenting on my skin. I'll definitely be back the place was relaxing and clean with friendly staff
