Beleza MedSpa

CONSUMER BEWARE!
I am extremely surprised to read such good reviews after my experience at Beleza medical spa today.
When I arrived, the office appeared disorganized– like I was the first client of the day (at 10:00). The receptionist greeted me with water and a MOUND of paperwork. My husband is a lawyer– I understand the need for legalisms and disclaimers; but many of the medical history questions were unclear and the paperwork was VERY redundant.
By 10:30 I was still filling out paperwork– by this time the receptionist was so distracted by an interviewee who had nervously shown up– that I blew off some of the repeat forms.
The facial was the best part of my experience– the therapist (April perhaps?) was thorough and explained ways to preserve the health of my skin. She offered an amazing face message and suggested some products for better hydration. I could see immediate results and it was well worth the cost.
My 11:00 appointment was for Botox (or a Botox consult). The therapist came in the room and asked «what I wanted.» It’s fine that she was cold and brash– perhaps it’s her personality; but it was nothing like I had ever seen in the medical cosmetics industry. This was not a doctor mind you– there was no doctor on site (as the pictures show) — this was a 30 something «injector» who wore a pager that buzzed loudly every few seconds of my appointment. She reviewed my problem zones and discussed the amount of Botox that should go into each zone. I had to ask several times what the cost per unit was going to be– which she didn’t know. At this pint I was weary– but she explained that she could not inject the eyes without the forehead also– so both zones had to be done at the same time.
By the time I left I had two BADLY BRUSED eyes and I realized I had spent around $ 120 – 160 more then the local costs.

April is wonderful and detail oriented! She is very meticulous!

It used to be good when Mindy was there. Now the turn over is too great. Even the front desk. No more Botox Tuesday. Expensive $ 12.50 a unit!
I won’t go back

Valerie is the best! Super sweet, patient, knowledgeable, and always has great recommendations. I will be returning to her for years to come, that’s for sure!

This might be my favorite med spa! Samantha is the sweetest person. She’ll make your day bright. She’s very helpful and puts you at easy. The esthetics of the building are gorgeous. They did an amazing job. The injector, Amber I think is her name… Is awesome. She will explain everything throughly. Very informative. She makes you feel comfortable. I highly recommend this place! I’m loving my botex also, try the hydrafacial.

I finally decided to try out the HCG Diet from Beleza after much encouragement from my sister and family! I cannot begin to tell you how comfortable and relaxed I felt after my consultation with Valerie at Beleza! She has been very hands on and encouraging through my diet process. I truly feel like she is available at any time to answer my questions. She was very thorough and knowledgable with the HCG diet so I completely trusted her with her expert opinions! I am in my first week of the HCG diet and I am so excited! Thank you to Valerie and Jamie Teykl at Beleza med spa for helping me to achieve my overall weight goal and making me feel very comfortable and motivated for this weight loss journey! I will definitely be using Beleza for post weight loss options once the weight starts coming off! Tall are AMAZING and I have already recruited a few co workers to them :)

Best place! Botox is always given appropriately and not too much. Very natural. I highly recommend over any other location. I have tried a few before settling with Beleza.

This was my first time at Belleza– I recieved a deep pore facial and a lash tint. April was wonderful ! I live in New York but will definitely be coming back next time I’m in Austin.

Been wanting to do something about my leg veins for many years and finally decided it was time. I was referred to beleza and saw all the positive reviews on Unilocal and decided it was time! I was able to get an appt for a consultation quickly and ended up getting service done day of consult. Super cute place that felt professional and clean but also warm and spa like. Receptionist was friendly and welcoming and April (my injector) was sweet and professional. Not the most pleasant experience physically but not terrible either. Any discomfort passes quickly! Worst part was the compression hose you have to wear after but that’s a given whenever you have sclerotherapie ;). Great experience at beleza though! Highly recommend!

This place completely turned my day around.
This morning was crap. My reflection in the stupid mirror was crap. My outlook for the immediate future was bordering on crap. Then my phone rang and it was Beleza calling me back to schedule me for a hydrofacial THIS VERY MINUTE! I had only made a request for an appointment through their website like ten minutes before!
So I put on my coat, swished some mouthwash and headed to the little cottage on S 1^st. Traffic was crap and I had a hard time believing it was okay for me to ultimately park in the back (turn into the driveway and you’ll know) because there were plenty of open spots. Easy parking? I didn’t even know what to do with that.
But as soon as I walked through that door, my grumpiness jumped ship. It smelled good! It felt good! It looked good! And there were like NO people there! The girl at the front desk even peeked around the corner to welcome me and offer me coffee. (There’s no sign on the back door, but if you see a zig-​zag wheelchair ramp, you did good.)
After I filled out my paperwork, April took me back and f*cking schooled me on everything old-​lady-​face related. Then she did the hydrofacial.
YOU GUYS.
I don’t even know why regular facials are legal anymore. You know when you look in the mirror and find yourself daydreaming about how awesome it would be to just suck the bullsh*t right out? THAT’S WHAT IT DOES! And then it puts good stuff back in! I honestly feel like I feel after a really, really great workout right now. It took zero effort on my part, but I feel clean and fresh and healthy and fantastic. And my day is no longer crap! And I don’t even care about mirrors! I’m probably going to go save some orphans and kittens this afternoon BECAUSE THAT’S THE WAY MY DAY IS GOING NOW. Thank you, hydrofacial.
In summary, the ladies at Beleza were sweet and funny and charming, the product line is legit and expansive, the hydrofacial is life affirming and I totally have a new spa home. I’m getting a damn IPL thing tomorrow because YOLO, my people. This is the springtime of our lives.

Had a Groupon for two photo facials at Beleza. They were so great working with me. The first two times I went in I couldn’t do the treatments. First because I had just been to the beach and second time was on antibiotics. They honored my Groupon well past the expiration because of that. They suggested face and chest and my results have been wonderful. Was surprised how much sun damage I had there and how much better it looks. Friendly people and excellent results

Had my first Hydro Facial today with April. It was an amazing experience! She really listened to me and answered all my questions so professionally! The whole staff was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!!!

Mindy is AMAZING!!! So sweet, so knowledgable. I could tell she is a perfectionist and that immediately made me trust her judgment. I will be taking all of my business to her from here on out. Thank you so much for making me look and feel my best! You are a doll!

I am really comfortable with the staff that works here. They don’t focus on selling their services to you, but focus on solving your concerns and delivering results. I will definately be returning soon.

Facial — April Campbell
April did great! She was very concerned about my well being. She was very swift and careful. One thing she could improve is not coming across rushed (although she probably was since i was late). She could also explain more proactively about what the product/​treatment will do and what to do to care for it. Again she was great!

Unfortunately I have a bruise above my lip from my last procedure, which has now been here for over 4 days. I’m sure it could happen anywhere, but this is just a reminder/​warning that treatment doesn’t come without risks! :(

I cannot say enough about how friendly, competent and wonderful Beleza is. I have had several IPL treatments for sun damaged skin at the South First location, with April. She is personable, extremely competent, caring and careful. The facilities are both clean and beautiful/​relaxing, like a spa. My experiences here have been wonderful and I would highly recommend Beleza to anyone.

I absolutely love Beleza and feel totally at ease. I’ve had a deep pore cleansing facial, Hydrafacial and an IPL photofacial all by April Campbell and have had amazing results. The IPL facial was basically painless. This combination has really helped clear, brighten and even my complexion. Its never too early or late to begin treatments. It is your only face after all! Beleza is a great place to become educated about preventative skin care. I can’t say enough good things about April and the rest of the Beleza staff!

They worked me in on a busy Friday for emergency fillers! The place on S.1^st is lovely and soothing. They greet you sweetly, unlike some of these places where the women can be as cold as Venus Freeze.
Sweet women who were so kind about my excitement over my upcoming party.
Mindy explained everything she was doing and had nimble hands. No pain. I would live in one of those beautiful South Austin rooms if I could.
Such a joy to find women who understand!
Highly reccomend.

I am updating my previous review because Dr. Broder personally reached out to me to find out what had happened. Suffice to say, Dr. Broder was not aware of most of the decisions and actions that the staff made– and that absolutely were NOT condoned by the doctor and/​or his spa. Again, In fairness to the doctor– he was not aware of his manager’s actions and sought me out to resolve the issues.
I appreciate that he called me and took a great deal of time in discussing all the issues and concerns from numerous previous experiences. Although there has been a bit too much conflict and aggravation to repair and restore the relationship, I can wish the doctor and staff well in the changes in policy that will make it a better customer service experience.
