I had the BEST experience!!! The entire office is so incredibly kind. They were incredibly patient with my fear of needles and so very accommodating. I love that I didn’t feel pressured to do anything and their recommendations were very realistic and modest. This office is fabulous and I can’t wait to go back!
Dr. Yew takes time to get to know his patients and create a plan tailored to them. I felt comfortable with him from day one - the atmosphere of the office, Dr. Yew’s personality along with the staff create an incredible experience. Dr. Yew goes above and beyond in all aspects of care. I have a history of feeling close to passing out when I receive several needle pokes. Dr. Yew walked me through meditation and breathing exercises that helped tremendously! Not to mention, I am so pleased with my results every time. I highly recommend!
Pandemic Zoom meetings made me more aware of my appearance despite any mask mandates. I am so blessed to be able to visit Dr. Yew and his professional Team at Aesthetics Hawaii. My first treatment with Dr. Yew began in Chinatown, in 2007, and I have followed his practice ever since.Recently, I called for a touch-up appointment, thinking I would eventually book within the month. It just so happened that Dr. Yew was available later that day. I was pleased since I would now have the chance to review all my progress that I have achieved with the help of Mi Seung, (the most precise) treatment technician. The bonus was receiving my treatment with a Doctor who cares and takes the time to listen.Dr. Yew came up with a treatment plan for my visit that day based on what my concerns were and my past treatments. I trust him so much to just do what I believe (at my age) to be what is best. My injection tune-up lasted a few minutes, and I experienced little to no discomfort because of his delicate and gentle touch.Before leaving, we arranged a plan for some spot treatment on a few acne scars. I truly value my care with Dr. Yew. I am grateful for his holistic approach to his patients and his wonderful team of professionals at Aesthetics Hawaii.
I have been a patient of Dr. Yew for many years. I started seeing him as far back as when his office was located in Aiea. I found Dr. Yew to be one of the most professional and kind physicians I have ever encountered. I am impressed that he takes time to know his patients, and gives them a thorough and realistic understanding of his patients needs. He listens and answers any questions. I never feel rushed because he allows ample time to make sure your results will be spot on! That is how patient and understanding he is. I am always impressed with his results. Dr. Yews staff have always been professional and friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Yews practice.
First time there, Dr was very nice, explained everything before doing anything. Made for a really good experience.
I am a health care professional who suffered from frequent headaches and severe migraines until I started Botox treatment of my chewing muscles with Dr. Yew. I have always worn clear retainers at night to serve as a guard against my strong clenching habit and would always carry my prescription migraine medication with me but that wasn’t enough. I needed to address the clenching muscles directly. Dr. Yew was very thorough with his evaluation and explained how the Botox treatment would help to reduce my migraines by relaxing the chewing muscles that are associated with my clenching habit. The Botox procedure takes less than 5 minutes and is completely painless. I am happy to say that I no longer feel the need to carry my prescription migraine medication and have been migraine free for over 8 months. Such a blessing and definitely life changing. Thank you Dr. Yew! :)
I have been going to Dr Yew for many years. He gives a wonderful experience with lots of information and great expertise. Yesterday I had facial filler which has been very successful. The office staff are great and Dr Yew manages to be humorous and proficient. Many of these procedures are expensive but he tries to find the most reasonable way of achieving great results. A++
I’ve been going to Aesthetics Hawaii for over a year now. My latest visit has hands down been the best experience I’ve had with any injector ever!! Dr. Yew has a brand new injection called RHA fillers and they’re just amazing! My whole life I’ve been insecure about having a cleft chin. I’ve always wanted to see I would look like without the defining line in the middle of my face. Most injectors just turned me away or said it was unnecessary until today!!! The RHA fillers were the perfect filler for a subtle tweak that truly changed my whole look! I’m super excited about the new more feminine feel my face has. Will definitely be back for more!(1st photo is my before and the 2nd is my after)
Five stars all around!!! I recently moved back to Hawaii after graduating from school and I knew Dr. Yew would be one of the first people I would be visiting.It always impresses me to see how much his practice evolves each visit; this time did not disappoint. He incorporated new meditation and breathing practices as he guided me through each injection. This made the whole process painless.It’s been ten days since I received Botox from Dr. Yew in my masseters and crows feet. And the results are exactly what I was looking for. When I smile, I no longer have wrinkles on the side of my eyes, one of my biggest insecurities when taking photos.My masseters now feel so much less tension (I have TMJ). I cannot wait to see the slimming effect, which he taught in previous treatments will occur over the next two to three months.One last thing I want to add is how much Dr. Yew and his staff go out of their way to help me with the reward programs for the products I receive to save me money where possible. Thank you Dr yew and staff!
I love, love, love this place! They always provide the best care. Friendly and caring staff. Dr. Yew is also amazing! He cares about you remaining comfortable during procedures, as well as providing the best results. I can’t wait to come back! In addition, they follow COVID-19 compliance to a “T”. I felt safe for sure. I highly recommend Aesthetics Hawaii for lip filler, as well as the other procedures they offer. Thank you again Dr. Yew!
If I could give this doctor less than one star, I would. He is dishonest and condescending. He will recommend more botox units than the injected areas actually need, therefore he profits more. I went back to him as a follow-up to let him know that based on his injections, a new problem that did not occur prior (it was obviously visible), happened... he was condescending and did not take responsibility. Just to let you know, even if you have set an appt. with him, he is concurrently working on other patients, thus continually gets interrupted by his assistants coming in and out of the room. He is unfocused and repeat, dishonest. This review was a long time coming but really, I dont want others wasting their money on a doctor that does not serve you with the highest integrity and expertise. There are other physicians worthy of your time.
Highly recommend. The goal is to get an injector that has a lot of experience but still is knowledgeable in the latest techniques and products and incorporates this into the services. Dr. Yew is that unicorn that is exactly that. On my 1st appointment, he really listened to my goals and problem areas and made suggestions but was not pushy about them, I opted not to go forward with them and just got the botox I had booked the appointment for. On my second appointment I came back and revisited his suggestions from last time and went ahead with what he suggested. OMG he was so right. I appreciate that he didnt push anything but I regret not having done them months ago! He and the staff and so sweet and he is his skill level is phenomenal
Shout out to Aesthetics Hawaii and aesthetician Pua’ena. The office is super sanitary and the staff make you feel comfortable at your first meeting. Pua’ena recently gave me a microneedling session using the SkinPen to help me with my skin texture concerns. The procedure was painless - I LOVE their numbing cream. Previously I would hesitate to have microneedling done because of the discomfort - not any more. I plan to go back regularly for maintenance. Bonus - lots of ample parking at Ala Moana center.
I have been seeing Dr. Yew for my migraines for over a year now. I can’t believe I had been living my life unnecessarily suffering through headaches for so long! Who knew botox could be used to cure headaches without insurance?! Dr. Yew is very thorough and explains exactly what he’s doing and why. It’s helped me learned the signs to get ahead of my migraines without having them interfere with my day-to-day life. 10/10 recommended for anyone suffering with headaches!!
Dr. Yew and his team are SO helpful and informative. I really feel like they care about my wellbeing and wants. I was a little nervous coming in (these things can be nerve wracking!) but my fears were put to rest quickly. Dr. Yew is not only great at what he does, he has foresight to make sure that you are set up for success going in to the future with regards to your beauty needs. Oh and on top of all this, they are supportive of service members and offer a military discount!! Wow! I am already itching to make another visit! Highly recommend!
Dr Yew and his staff are awesome. I found Dr Yew and was amazed by all the great reviews. Ive been seeing Dr Yew for over 8 years now I couldnt be happier with my results.For starters, his office is in a super convenient location next to Ala Moana shopping center with easy parking. Hes even open on Saturdays which is amazing for those of us who work M-F 9 to 5. I have tried both calling and emailing to make appointments and his staff is always super attentive and get back to me right away to schedule an appointment. Theyve been able to fit me in on incredibly short notice the last two Saturdays I went.Dr Yew provides initial consults for free and is incredibly honest and thorough. I never once felt like he was trying to sell me anything or pressure me to get extra procedures. I really felt like he cared about me as an individual and I was amazed how long he spent answering all of my questions at my first appointment. Even at my second appointment he was just as thorough and ensured that all of my questions were answered. He is all about setting realistic expectations and giving you a natural look. With all of the time and attention to detail that Dr Yew provides, I was expecting that he would charge more but his prices are incredibly reasonable. He also works to make sure you can get every manufacturer rebate and discount possible.About his injection technique - I like that Dr Yew draws up the Botox right in front of you so you can see what you are getting. I was also very impressed by his injection technique and learned a thing or two from him. I was expecting a painful injection experience reminiscent of a dentist appointment where I normally sit there tensing up in the chair. Instead, Dr Yew gave me meditation balls to hold and walked me through guided focused breathing exercises much like a yoga instructor. I actually finished my appointment feeling even more relaxed than when I came in. You can tell that he has given thousands of injections in his career. He is extremely efficient and knows exactly where to place the Botox to give you the most natural look. In the last two times Ive gone, Ive had zero bruising and the small amount of redness post-injection subsided within 20 minutes.Dr Yews skill and bedside manner is unparalleled and the customer service that his entire staff provides cant be beat. I would highly recommend Dr Yew to anyone.
I’m an active, healthy 28 year old. I go to the gym 5 times a week but haven’t been able to lose the inches around my midsection. I visited Aesthetics Hawaii looking for some assistance. After a thorough consultation, 2 treatments of Cool Sculpting to my “flanks” was recommended. I’m completely new to this field but Morgan, my coolsculpter, was very experienced, answered all my questions, walked me through my entire treatment plan, was sure to get the exact areas I wanted gone and was even able to do my treatment that same day. It’s only been 2 weeks but I feel like I can already tell a difference!!
Dr. Yew is SO AMAZING! I went to him for lip filler & botox. Ive previously gotten lip filler & botox with Dr. Shim Chings office but because I didnt have the best experience, I wanted to try somewhere new. And lets just say Dr. Yew has completely converted me. I wont go anywhere else now! He took his time with me to make sure I understood the process and he answered all my questions. He made me feel so at ease and I loved the vibe of the entire staff.For the actual injecting, the pain was not bad at all. The botox injection barely felt like anything and the lip filler was maybe a 2/5. He only used the topical numbing cream and Id still say it was less painful then with the other provider (who also did a dental block.) He really does have a magic touch and he knows what hes talking about.My lips are still slightly swollen from the injection but I dont look crazy & Ive had pretty much ZERO pain after the injections. Which to me is so amazing considering the last time I was left looking like a duck swollen for weeks and in pain for almost an entire week.Cannot recommend him enough! Will definitely be going back and I cant wait to try their facials as well.
Dr Yew used the plasma pen on my face to smooth the texture and lighten some age spots. My skin looks brighter and feels lighter. I am so pleased with the results. No pain and was a very easy recovery with very little downtime.
I have severe teeth grinding that, over time, has not only given me pain in my jaws but has made my jaws look larger. I decided to do something about it and made an appointment with Aesthetics Hawaii. I met Dr. Yew who explained in detail about my symptoms and concluded that I had severe TMJ. He suggested that I get Botox injections on my jaw muscles along with muscles near my temples. I decided with the procedure and boy, am I glad that I did! Its been only a week since the injections but my teeth grinding must have eased as I no longer have pain in my jaw. Also, I noticed that my jaws are looking thinner as a bonus. Thank you, Dr. Yew, for your outstanding professionalism and the Botox treatment. Ill definitely be back!
Phenomenal experience with Aesthetics Hawaii at their Honolulu location. I was treated by Dr. David Yew. Im 28 years old and it was my first time for Botox. The staff was pleasantly welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. I was also impressed with how knowledgable they were about procedures and all the products they carry. Customer service at Aesthetics Hawaii is top notch. The office was modern, stylish and very clean. Parking is free and easy at Ala Moana.But now for the important part, what I found that set Aesthetics Hawaii apart from other offices was their tailored consultation that focused on the aging process which gave me knowledge and an overall plan that took into account budget and realistic expectations. The integrity in the staff stood out to me most and made me confident that I was being cared for by a honest, caring staff that also clearly had good taste. I learned so much and felt I was being genuinely cared for. Their business philosophy was obvious: Treat others the way you want to be treated. My first visit was focused on doing dysport (botox) in my masseter muscles. I have noticed my face has gotten much wider as Ive gotten older and instead of a “V” shape - it now looks more “U like. Just 3 weeks since my treatment I noticed less clenching, headache and my face looks slimmer like a V!Ive returned and also got botox treatment for my #11s (between my eyes, forehead) and a consultation for ZO skin care line to use at home. Ive noticed a big difference in my forehead after the first week. No more angry face! The products I went home with are amazing so far, I feel a big difference in overall texture and brightness in my skin. After using my Zo products, my skin is no longer dull and a lot smoother. I’m so relieved I found this place and looking forward to future visits. Dr.Yew is an artist and a master of his craft. I really recommend this place.
Dr. Yew is amazing!
I have been seeing Dr. Yew for 10 years, and I highly recommend him for any of your aesthetic needs! He is professional, knowledgeable, and he genuinely cares about his clients well-being. His products are always high-quality and provide lasting results. He spends time to get you to know you, and what your health and beauty desires are. I really appreciate that he offers alternative techniques to make the procedures as comfortable as possible. For example, he will practice meditation with you and do basic breathing practices prior to injecting because it helps to calm the mind and body, and the entire process is virtually painless. He also provides grip therapy balls that help to lessen your tension. I really enjoy these creative alternative medicine practices, and they make the entire visit very enjoyable.
I have suffered from TMJ and headaches for years. I first got introduced to botox from another office where the injections were in my jawline (masseters). Of course I also wanted the aesthetic part of my jaw to look slimmer while helping with my clenching. I enjoyed my slimmer jawline, but still suffered tension headaches.I started working for Dr. Yew and I mentioned to him that I am still getting headaches and I believe it is caused by my clenching. He evaluated and educated me about additional injections to my temple area.I cannot believe how instant the relief happened!! Eye opening!!! That night I couldn’t believe how well I slept. If you find yourself a clencher/grinder and suffer headaches, please see Dr. Yew. You will not regret it!He used the FDA approved product Jeuveau on my temples.I am so happy to be working for an amazing and caring doctor and to be part of his awesome team! 😊Update on my treatments:My clenching has been improving with each treatment. My jaw feels so much relief and relaxed. I cant imagine my life without this treatment.I have also done other treatments at the office, I cant tell you enough about how much he cares about you as a patient. He will always spend the time with you to explain everything that will be done and make you feel comfortable. Always a great experience!New Procedure: FillersAs I have been aging, I have noticed that the shape of my face has been changing. 1. My temples have been getting a little more sunken in. 2. I have been getting botox in my masseters for my clenching and the result which has been fantastic is that the muscle is getting smaller, with it getting smaller it has been changing the shape of the lower part of my face. If you look at the frame of my face, it resembles a peanut shape. My desire is to have a heart shaped face.And......here comes Dr. Yew to the rescue! For my procedure he used fillers from Revance Therapeutics. The RHA Collection. (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) This is the only filler that is approved for dynamic folds and wrinkles.In my temples he used #3 RHA Collection (1 syringe on each side)For the bridge between my cheekbones and masseters he used #4 RHA Collection (1 syringe on each side). I AM SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS! I was a little nervous about the discomfort, but his HA therapy (breathing technique) helped me get through the procedure. I felt very little discomfort.Dr. Yews looks at your face as a masterpiece, I am so honored that I was able to be one of his pieces! THANK YOU DR. YEW!
I got lip fillers done by Simione last week and she made the entire experience awesome. She was so friendly and sweet but professional. And I love the way my lips came out.
I subconsciously grind my teeth and clench my jaw when Im sleeping and awake, leading to headaches that I would constantly medicate with Excedrin. Dr. Yew took the time to explain how Botox would alleviate the tension. The injections work wonders! Since Ive seen Dr. Yew (for almost a year), I dont suffer from daily headaches and I wake up finding my jaw is not clenched. On the aesthetic side, hes just as wonderful - keeping me in check so I still look like my natural self. He also put together a great team, his staff is personable and caring. I highly recommend, DrYew!
Aloha! I visited Dr. Yews office last week for lip fillers. With all the chaos in the world happening now I just wanted to do something special for myself. Ive had fillers many of times previously on the mainland and abroad - I can say hands down this was the best experience thus far! I instantly felt at ease on arrival. I was check in outside the office, had my temperature taken and paperwork to complete ensuring I hadnt been exposed to COVID19. Upon entering I was swiftly taken into Dr. Yews office to discuss treatment goals and expectations. Im 26 and usually go for a fuller Kylie Jennerish look. Dr. Yew kindly explained to me that a more natural look would be better fit for my face shape and overall be more proportional. I was hesitant at first, then he showed me the difference in the fillers I had previously had (Perfecta) and what he recommended for me (Kysse). After his explanation I decided I should try it, after all he is master in the field. All I can say now is WOW I am so happy I did! The difference is impeccable without being over the top. I feel so pretty and happy with my new lips! 10/10 would recommend Aesthetics Hawaii to anyone considering a lip enhancement.
Very friendly staff and helpful.made me feel very comfortable and was very knowledgeable about all their procedures.
Every dollar Ive spent here has been worth it and then some. The staff here are warm, professional, and so knowledgeable. I bought a series of treatments and worked with Leilani, who made me feel incredibly comfortable and at ease before and during the procedure. She patiently answered all of my questions and worked with me to reschedule when I had a conflict. I cant say enough about her personally. If you can book a treatment with her, you wont regret it.Additionally, every treatment has been extremely hygienic, painless, and even relaxing- and some involved a lot of needles! I strongly suggest you book your consultation with Aesthetics Hawaii- you will absolutely come out of there confident and willing to book a treatment with them. Amazing service and facility.
I had the best experience here!!! I have never had anything like this done before and I was very nervous. The staff and the doctor was so friendly and very professional. After just a few moments of speaking with the doctor about what I was wanting done, I felt very comfortable and confident. I couldnt be more happy with my results! So natural and I feel even more beautiful than ever. I will be coming back when needed! I would recommend this office to anyone!!! They are the best!!!
First ever Botox experience - it was phenomenal! I’m a 26 year old who has always suffered from horrible migraines, especially when stressed. I was skeptical for using Botox to treat migraines but after talking to Dr. Yew I was amazed to realize the benefits, and to find that I had been suffering from TMD without even knowing it! He answered all of my questions throughly and eased my anxieties over needles entirely! Together we decided on 50 units of Botox in my masseter (jaw) muscle and 30 in my temporalis muscle. I IMMEDIATELY felt relief in my frontal forehead area! I’m excited for my results to continue to set in. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for migraine relief!
Dr yew is a lifesaver. I went in originally to get Botox in my forehead. But he noticed that I had tmj so he recommended that I do my masseter instead. I have been suffering with bad tmj and migraine headaches everyday and thought that’s how I just have to live my life everyday. But I’m so glad that Dr yew recommended to do my masseter first. My headaches is almost completely gone and the pressure on my head that I had constantly is so much better. If you suffer from tmj I suggest you go to aesthetics Hawai’i. Thanks Dr yew!
The service started all good, then it just went all down hill. I still had one more treatment to do and scheduled for that treatment, the doc just called in to cancel the appt which was ok because they promised to re-schedule sometime during the week. BUT, I never received a phone call from them, so I had to follow up but they told me the doc was fully booked. So apparently the doc just didnt consider me at all. And I was so upset because I am going back to work soon and the down time is at least 10-14 days for me, i dont want to go back work with a red face, so I asked was there any chance to squeeze in an appt during the week, the receptionist told me to let the doc call me back but once again, she never did!! And when I tried to call again, my call went to their Voice Mail directly!! Worst experience with Dermatology Center EVER!! I will never go back to this center EVER AGAIN!!
Love everything about this place! The facility is so welcoming as well as the entire staff! Dr. Yew is amazing!
I want to commend Dr David Yew and his team. I have been a client since 2015 and had many procedures to include botox, fillers, and most recently PDO Threads. Dr Yew is truly a master of his craft and customizes technique specific to each person. If you are looking for the best on Oahu, look no further.
I received a treatment at Aesthetics Hawaii called the “Diamond Glow”, which is a new machine that exfoliated, extracted, and infused a serum into my skin. I received the pore clarifying serum which was perfect for my skin since I had some break outs. After the treatment, my skin felt so soft and I noticed my pores were cleaner. They also showed me the container of liquid with the dirt and gunk that came out of my skin and let me tell you, it was gross. Thank you for removing that debris from my face! Highly recommend! I also started using the ZO products that they sell and I noticed a HUGE difference with my acne and skin. Aside from the 4 days traveling into cold weather, my skin did fluctuate a little, but I am back on the regimen and my skin is so much better! I use the gentle cleanser, exfoliating polish, and the oil- controlling pads. Love the ZO products. Sunscreen is also a must and since I ran out, I tried out the tinted SPF 44 ULTA sunscreen and it is so smooth unlike other ones that feel so thick and hard to spread around your face. AND it gives me so added color. If you haven’t tried a service or product, I would recommend trying it because it works!
I’m giving this place two stars because I think that their customer service on the phone is poor. . The girl that answered my phone this afternoon was not helpful and not very polite. It definitely made me look at other facilities. I would hate to take time off work for a consultation and be treated with the same mannerisms on location as I was on the phone. Peoples time is valuable and precious it’s not an entitlement to get somebody service.
I love coming here for my dermapen treatments. Rita is the absolute BEST and will take great care of you. She is the utmost professional and the results are AMAZING. I have a small scar on my forehead that is virtually disappearing with each treatment.The staff is also wonderful and they make you feel as if you are family. I highly recommend Aesthetics Hawaii for any treatment you may need.Thank you guys!
So happy that I found Dr. Yew. Dr. Yew is knowledgeable and answers all the questions. The staff is amazing as well. They are kind and personable. Everyone in the office made me feel so special. Most of all, the result! This is the best result ever. No more jowls around my lower lips. Ive had aesthetic treatments in the past but this is by far the best. I will definitely return for my next treatment and am excited about it!
My first time experience with getting fillers, and Simione was great. She gave me the best bang for my dollar (So she s said) Initial I did see a little difference around my nasal folds. She asked what my main concerns were and I had told her the deep lines around my mouth. From what Ive read it takes a little time for product to settle. Its been 4 days.. except for around my nose there is absolutly no difference. The product she injected was Radesse. She told me it was calicum based thicker then some of the other products and much more product per syringe. The price was $1000 but gave me $200 off for first time customer. Bottle line For $800 and for not 1 person to notice a difference. So unhappy.
Im sure like most people, anytime someone is touching your face, you must really trust the person. You can trust Dr. Yew on every level from understanding what is best for you, cleanliness, and what to expect days later. David makes treatments comfortable and effortless.He will not give you anything that he feels will not benefit you.
Ive been a customer for the last 2 years with Aesthetics Hawaii at their Ala Moana location. My first treatment was with botox for my forehead and crows feet. Ill admit - I was nervous as I was a first timer - but WOW! The results were amazing. My deep lines and creases were gone after 3 days. The staff was very welcoming and I was also impressed with how knowledgable they were about procedures and all the products they carry. They have such an honest approach as they dont push anything but give information and education about the aging process. They gave me an overall plan that took into account budget and realistic expectations.The office is modern, stylish and very clean. Parking is free and easy at Ala Moana.Ive since returned and just received the Diamond Glow Medical Facial with Tanya and Simone. Apparently - they are the first practice to get this device! Its a 3 in 1 - simultaneous wet exfoliation, extraction and infusion of growth serums and hydrating moisturizers. Im amazed! My skin is no longer dull and looks a lot smoother. I’m so relieved I found this place and looking forward to future visits. Dr. Yew is an artist and a master of his craft. I really recommend this place.
This is a follow up from my first visit. (See below) I got Botox in my masseter muscle for the first time and it was a great experience. I suffer from tension headaches and I was a little nervous but Dr. Yew thoroughly explained what to expect and made me comfortable. A week after my treatment the Botox kicked in. It helped with my jaw tightness and headaches because it reduced the clenching in my jaw muscles. It made a dramatic difference bc I had less pain and tension. It also made my face look slimmer because those jaw muscles reduced in size, thats a nice perk! Its been 3 months since my treatment and Im starting to clench again. So Im looking forward to getting this done and feeling better again soon. Im very pleased and I highly recommend getting this treatment!First timer!Amazing first experience-tons of parking at Ala Moana and easy to find. A very lovely office-modern and has a cafe feel to it. Staff was warm, friendly and professional. Dr. Yew took his time to answer all of my questions and educate me on how fillers work and the different types available (I got the Restylane Refyne). I received a topical numbing cream and a dental block was placed to help alleviate the pain, I really appreciated that! Dr. Yew recommended to start off with a 1/2 syringe being that it was my first time and if I liked it to come back and get another treatment done in the future. I am very pleased with the results and like how it looks very natural, I will be going back!
Dr. David Yew over charged and doctor insisted that it was not, and hung up the phone first. terrible. He is very rude.
First time getting Botox and lips. Was very nervous but Aesthetics Hawaii made my experience run smoothly. The consultation was so thorough. They made me feel comfortable and I was confident that I wanted to get my treatments done with them. Love my results!
I absolutely recommend the PRP Micro needling treatment. My texture and tone has greatly improved since my treatment and the downtime was minimal. Thanks Aesthetics Hawaii for making my skin look and feel great!
I have tried this place for laser and I had really bad experience, first the lady didnt stop to say how much hurts it is, if you professional you shouldnt say something like that to your customers! She didnt stop to say it...I have luck that I did before laser so I know how to feel if not I been running from there. She was really really slow and not professional my aunt doing laser for many years and she teaching all over the world different technique, when she did to me the laser I never felt like I felt in this place, I never felt the heat so bad she burned me in my lips its really hard to see in the picture and its after a couple days but its really worst and deep. Plus theyre really expensive for nothing. Definitely not coming back there.
Dr. Yew is the best. Friendly, informative and always there for you with great bedside manner. I always feel comfortable and assured that any treatment I get will be thoroughly explained and professionally executed. From botox to laser hair removal, Dr. David Yew will help you put your best face forward and get to feeling confident once again. Ive recommended several of my good friends to him and they all agree.
I went to see Leilani for some injectables. I felt like I look tired and my face was losing volume. I went in wanting some injections in my cheeks and my lips done. Leilani was awesome. She took a look at my face & asked me what I didnt like or what I saw and she told me that she thought I should have the cheeks done and the chin/bottom of the face. She was honest about my lips and said I have volume already and she doesnt think putting any filler in will give me the volume Im looking for because of my lip shape. I wasnt exactly sure what I wanted but I knew I wasnt happy at what I was looking at.I wrote this long review to let you know you can go ask her what she thinks you need and she can look at your face and know whats going to work for you. Nobody would look at me and see a huge difference because its so subtle but all of a sudden now my face is full and it looks brighter and I dont look tired at all in fact I look extremely rested. Its very natural looking people will know you look better they just wont know why. Shes super sweet and she absolutely knows what shes doing. I will be back to keep this maintenance up.
My first time experience getting Botox and lip fillers and Leilani was super awesome! this is my new friend when it comes to keeping me look younger!!! Everyone is very nice and professional!
Decent experience Ill be back because Im starting to be more comfortable there and the ladies know what their doing. I dont give it 5 stars just because as a person who has never had botox or fillers ever I expected them to walk me through the process and I felt more like they expected me to already know everything. AMD the parking is just a little far away. Overall I like the place and will continue to go.
I went in for a laser treatment for my dark spots. Dr. Yew was very professional and his staff very courteous. I was amazed at the results, and will go back for more! I am also on the Obagi skin care regimen and Dr. Yew was very thorough in explaining how to apply the products.
The best place! So professional! I love my lips!!!!!!! They are the best! Great environment!! Full trust in their knowledge to make you look your best!
Hello my name is Maria, My experience with Aesthetics Hawaii has been absolutely Great. The staff are very sweet and knowledgable with the treatments and procedures.I had my Botox done with Dr. Yew, who has a gentle hand. We made a plan for the next 6 months to brighten and rejuvenate my skin. Im excited to see my results in the next months following!
I went for botox and fillers. I Just hit 40. DR. SAID NO! He said I didnt need it. I APPRECIATE HIS HONESTY. I still feel like Im getting older, but you know what, Im ok with that. When I do feel like I am getting all wrinkled, I will be going back for another consult, but for today I am happy. Great Dr., Great Staff!
I received a CoolScupting treatment at Aesthetics Hawaii 3 weeks ago. I was tired of my double chin and a friend of mine recommended me to go see Tanya the number one cool sculpter in the Nation! So I did. I called the office and scheduled for a consultation. Amazingly you can get a consult and treatment at the Dane time! The office ladies are very nice and helpful. It was bit hard for me to fit my schedule in with the availability but the front office worked very hard to get me in. I ended up getting 3 cycles on my chin and I will follow up to keep everyone informed on my results- bring that it’s too soon! I had a great experience at Aesthetics Hawaii and I would recommend everyone getting a treatment done! Thank you Tanya!
I am an RN at Aesthetics Hawaii and today was my very first treatment for Coolsculpting with Tanya Hall. I was dual sculpted (used 2 machines at the same time) and underwent treatment for my flanks and back fat. Tanya was very professional and made the experience very comfortable. I even took a short nap. The whole procedure took about 2 1/2hours for consult, photos and treatment. When the treatment was completed I felt a little itching and numbness in the area but I attribute that to the fat cells dying. I’m excited to see my results as it can take up to 6-8 weeks to see the full result. Before and after photos to follow. Overall, great experience will lilttle pain and absolutely no downtime.
I’m a 45 yo mom of 2 kids. I think I’m in good shape. I’ve always had that loose fat that hangs around the bottom of my arms. No matter how much I exercise - it just doesn’t go away. I think it may be genetics, regardless, I decided to try coolsculpting after meeting with Tanya for a consult. She’s so sweet and guided me through the whole process. I had 2 cycles and it was a breeze. I was scared at first but zero pain! Just cold for the first minute - after that no prob. You just sit in a really comfy chair and after they put the machine pads on and I was finished in about 30 min! I live in Honolulu and I walked over to the office is Ala Moana center. It’s above Bank of Hawaii. After 12 wks - the fat that was around my arms looks so much better! I don’t have that horrible jiggle when I work out! Im so excited now to do Cool Sculpting for my bra fat and then my flanks. As a side note, I love that they take care credit, they even gave me 20% off my first treatment!PS Tanya you’re the best thank you so much for all your help
We all know that getting older sometimes can be challenging for some of us egocentric ladies.. Because I refuse to go down without a fight I have joined the ranks of the best of um by doing a little sumptin, sumptin here and there to keep my outward beauty in tackt, making sure it matches my inward beauty ;0) . I have been getting the juice since 2011 first starting in a high-falutin expensive world renowned Dr.s office in Santa Barbara while visiting my son in college. I have continued my juicing practices ever since and making sure I test many different places here in Hawaii as well as around the West Coast. Now every fabulous lady who adheres to the same beauty standards knows that this is all about maintenance and to keep up you must go several times a year for your treatments otherwise you turn back into the old haggard lady with the wart on her nose, wrinkled to all high heavens, stirring the cauldron on the fire wearing mumu, dancing to the voices in our heads. So... back to my point of this post.. I have been to tons of Drs offices since 2011 here in Hawaii and hands down I will say that Aesthetics Hawaii was genesis to hire Rita Abreu! Not only did Rita pick my sagging face back off the ground but she fixed my concerns that I thought were unfixable in one session! She taught me with minimal effort (on her part) that I could look and ultimately feel 15 years younger in a matter of minutes. No joke! I paid less than I expected, was treated in 1/2 the time of my other Drs office visits and with 10 times more attention to detail! Aesthetics Hawaii you better give that girl a raise! Since going in to see them last year I had returned 2 more times for my maintenance and I will only go back to Aesthetics Hawaii for all of my beauty needs! I love the Aloha that all the staff exudes and I cant thank them enough for always squeezing me in while on a tight deadline to get to the airport (I live Maui). I call and I am fit right in. They even stayed late one night to accommodate me without my knowledge until after I left. They didnt make me feel guilty as other Drs offices would and that says so much about the culture of the practice. Again, I cant say enough about their service and the abilities of Rita Abreu! Mahalo for helping me feel and look my best Aesthetics Hawaii! Mahalo!#ritaabreu #aestheticshawaii #lookingfabulous #feelingfabulous
Im a 39 yo female - mom of 2 kids. Im tall and I consider myself full and voluptuous Since the birth of my children - Ive gained some weight but no matter how much I exercise - theres still some loose fat that hangs around my belly. Its been 3 years since the last child so I decided to try Coolsculpting after meeting with Tanya for a consult. Shes very professional and honest. She answered all my questions and guided me through the whole process. I had 4 cycles and it was much more comfortable than I expected. Just cold for the first minute - after that no prob. You just sit in a comfortable chair and after they put the machine pads on and I was finished in about 45 min! I live in Kakaako and the office was only 5 min to the office at Ala Moana center. (Its above Bank of Hawaii) After 10 wks - the fat around my belly looks so much better! I dont see as much of the fat and my skin actually looks a little bit tighter! Im so excited now to do Cool Sculpting for my my flanks next. The price was very reasonable - it was $650 per cycle. They even gave me 20% off my first treatment!PS - The front desk was very friendly, plenty of parking, the office very modern and clean. Im looking forward to my next visit.
Aesthetics Hawaii is my one stop shop for all things aesthetics. I have received botox and dysport, revanesse versa fillers, vampire facials and microneedling, and chemical peels.My most recent visit was for my first vampire facial with Tanya. I had received microneedling in the past but it is incomparable to my results with the addition of PRP aka platelet rich plasma.I was hesitant to try micro needling with PRP because I dread getting my blood drawn, but when Tanya did it there was no pain! She also numbed me twice for extra comfort when I told her I am sensitive to pain. She put numbing cream on me for twenty minutes, wiped it off then put it on again for another 15 minutes.The treatment itself only took about 25 minutes and was very comfortable. But what really amazed me was my healing time. It was significantly less than microneedling without PRP. Tanya explained to me that this is normal as the PRP have healing factors that speed up the process. So I had less redness and puffiness than usual, and I was only slightly red for three days.She gave me oxygenetix so there was no social down time. Oxygenetix is a concealer/foundation with aloe and antibacterial, my skin loved it and it didn’t make me break out! I went to dinner the next day and no one noticed! At the six week mark was when I could really tell a difference in my skin. I had tighter pores, more even skin tone, and a brighter appearance! Thank you Tanya!
For starters, the office is in a super convenient location at Ala Moana center with easy parking. Theyre open on Saturdays which is good for me bc I work during the weekdays. The office staff is friendly and they got back to me right away to schedule an appointment.Now for my lip fillers! I was nervous and scheduled a free consult just to get info. Dr Yew is very honest and thorough as he explained things I never knew - proportions, assymetry, how Asian lips are different in size, etc... There was no pressure me to get it done and I really felt like he cared about me/ I was surprised at how long he spent answering all of my questions! Even at my second appointment he was just as thorough and ensured that all of my questions were answered. Hes all about setting realistic expectations and giving you a natural look. With all of the time and attention to detail that Dr Yew provides, I thought he would charge more but his prices were very affordable.About his injection technique - Im a pharmacist and have given thousands of flu shots over my career, so I tend to watch other health care professionals closely. I like that Dr Yew shows the product right in front of you so you can see what you are getting. I was also very impressed by his injection technique as there was no bruising or pain. Instead, Dr Yew gave me meditation balls to hold and walked me through guided focused breathing exercises much like a yoga instructor. I actually finished my appointment feeling even more relaxed than when I came in. You can tell that he has given thousands of injections in his career.Dr Yews skill and bedside manner is really special and the customer service that his entire staff provides cant be beat. I would highly recommend Dr Yew to anyone.
Non professional and waste of time. I dont recommend it. And the front desk women are nasty.
Doctor David Yew is very rude! I will never go back to have Botox done with him! I have no idea what kind of Botox he used on me! He caused my under eye twitching and he said there is nothing to do with his injection. I understand sometimes doctor may inject a bit wrong and caused twitching! I wasn’t there to blame him, but to ask if there is anyway to fix it but he gave me an insulting look and laugh that I was too obsessed with it and said that the twitching was always there but I I didn’t notice till the Botox is done! So irresponsible doctor! And he said ‘’Botox is not for you in that case!’’I went to a different doctor and discovered that there are 3 types of Botox! He confirmed with me that a cheap brand of Botox or wrong injection can cause twitching! Before injection, make sure to look at Botox bottle with Allergan on it! My new doctor showed me the bottle of Botox that he would use on me and I got my jawlines done and happy with it!
Omigod Rita is my new beauty enhancing, filler injecting, life saving best friend ever! I’ve always wanted fuller lips, but the sheer thought of a needle stabbing my mouth was enough to make me cringe and cry. But then, out of nowhere this glorious syringe wielding angel (Rita) appeared and snuffed out all traces of anxiety that once doomed me to live thin-lipped for all eternity. She was super thorough during the consultation, amazingly delicate during the procedure and just kept it 100% real always. Oh and lemme toot my horn real quick: My lips, Ohhh MaGawwwd! My. Frikken. Lips. Luscious, shapely and soooo natural looking. They are, simply put, BEAUTIFUL! And not because I was blessed, but because Rita, sweet, genuine, gorgeous, Juverderm Ninja Rita is just that good.
I wanted to share my exceptional experience that I received Aesthetics Hawaii by Dr. David Yew. I have had 2 years of Botox, injectable fillers and lasers at several other medi-spas throughout Honolulu. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable and the customer service is outstanding. The office is modern, clean and professional and there is tons of convenient parking at Ala Moana. What was unique is they gave me a free detailed consultation that focused on the aging process, which gave me an overall plan that took into account budget, realistic expectations, and honesty. It was very different than any other place Ive been. I not only learned a lot but also felt they genuinely cared for. Their business philosophy was very honest: Treat others the way you want to be treated. That stuck with me. My first visit was focused on doing dysport (botox) in my masseter muscles. I have noticed my face has gotten wider over the years. It’s been several weeks and I now have less clenching, headache and my face looks slimmer like a V! I look very natural and even my husband didn’t notice. I also recently went back for my first lip fillers. I was anxious at first but was given numbing cream, a dental block and acupressure balls. We discussed the options between Juvederm (Volbella or Vollure) and Restylane (Refyne or Defyne) and we decided to do a half syringe of Restylane Refyne. I have naturally full lips so I wanted something conservative. I was told that I could add more later if I liked it. I didn’t want the big overblown “duck lips” and they reassured me that “less was more”. Wow! My lips look so natural and defined. There was a little bit of swelling (which I didn’t mind LOL) and the discomfort was minimal. I can’t wait to see what it looks like in the months to come. Finally, I’m really excited about the ZO (Zein Obagi) Skin Health products that I just started. I have tried many kinds of products before (SkinMedica, Skinceuticals, etc…) and my skin is glowing. It’s the new improved Obagi line and I’m a big fan of the exfoliating scrub and primer sunscreen! I’m just so happy that I found the right place for me. Dr. Yew and Amy Biggs are both true artists and professionals. Just ask for their honest opinion and theyll give it. I highly recommend this place!
I recently went to Aesthetics Hawaii and got a lip filler treatment with Rita. I naturally have full lips but wanted it to be a little fuller, especially on the bottom lip. She used 1 syringe to contour my upper lip and to add volume to my bottom lip. She also did a little on my chin for subtle overall balance. I love my results! I also purchased Oxygenetix with Rita, Oxygenetix is a anti-bacterial breathable post-procedure foundation that reduces social downtime, conceals while healing and great for daily use for healthy skin. It also has spf 25 UVA/UVB ✨There are a wide range of shades, my shade is Creme. This is an amazing product, I no longer have to worry about my foundation clogging my skin when wearing it all day in this island humidity. Great to use everyday, even when working out! I apply it daily with my finger tips or when layering for more coverage I use a foundation brush. Great service overall, I can’t wait to go back! 👄 💓
Dr. Yew is a true professional. I had a pleasure of witnessing a presentation by Dr Yew about the fillers and Botox, and I was very impressed by his attention to detail, and willingness to explain every detail pertaining to the procedure. His presentation covered in depth the background information about the procedures, all the whys, dos and donts of having fillers and Botox. At the end of his presentation not only I felt that my knowledge has increased, but I was able to witness his work in a live presentation. What I liked the most is the fact that he was using some kind of infra red device that allowed him to see where exactly where the veins were in order to avoid hitting them. My wife had fillers under her eyes done at another practice before and they hit a vein under her eye. It immediately bruised and for the next month I was getting funny looks when I was with her in public places. Well, this is not likely going to happen at Dr Yew. Following his presentation my wife booked an appointment with Dr. Yew and we are looking forward to having our first appointment with him.
Vampire Facial with Liquid Gold! Last week I went in to see Megan for another microneedling session. We added platelet rich plasma to the treatment; so she ended up drawing my blood, spinning it and using the PRP that was separated at the top. She also had numbed me twice for extra comfort. I put on the numbing cream for 20 minutes washed it off, then put it on again for another 20 minutes.The whole treatment was really educational and she made me feel at ease as she described what she was doing and the sensation I was feeling. The feeling of the microneedling at first is a little startling because of the noise and pressure but It really isnt bad at all. Id give it a 4 out of 10 and the treatment lasted less than half an hour.At the end of the treatment my face felt taut from the PRP she told me to keep it on for 5 hours and gave me all the post treatment recommendations.My face was normal within three days; Im usually pretty red and puffy for at least 5 to 7 days! Less downtime than Ive ever had with the dermapen, thanks to the PRP! And with the oxygenetix foundation she gave me (my color is creme) there was zero downtime! Typically I dont want to put on ANYTHING after my microneedling treatments but this stuff I slathered on because it felt so soothing and covered up any trace of redness! It has aloe, antimicrobial, and mineral sunscreen! So lucky to have found this place and appreciate all the knowledge they share about treatment as well as amazing results based treatments! Thank you Tanya!
This is for Dr. David Yew he is very focused and is very attentive to your needs. I highly recommend Dr. Yew at Hawaii Botox!
Let me start off by saying I never thought I would get Botox, especially in my 20’s. Recently botox (disport) was introduced to me by a friend and explained to me that it is a naturally occurring substances placed into the muscles to relax areas that are prone to wrinkles. And after some research of my own, all of the sudden it wasn’t so scary and intimidating as I thought. I went in for a consultation because I was beginning to notice lines across my forehead, which I felt made me look older, and the lines around my eyes were bothering me. Let me tell you first hand, Doctor Yew is meticulous and thorough. I thought maybe I was too young to do botox but he informed me that it is not about age but the appearance of lines at rest and the strength of the facial muscles.After a very long and detailed consultation we decided to treat my forehead, crows feet/laugh lines with Dysport. He informed me that in 3-7 days I would no longer be able to create the wrinkles because the botox relaxes the muscle causing them. Without the source causing the wrinkle I would no longer get lines at rest, and the look would also be much softer and boy was he right! I couldn’t be happier with the results. The crow’s feet injection made my smile look much softer. And I am so happy not to see those lines across my forehead. Overall I feel like this has given me a younger and refreshed look.
Fabulous practice! I received Botox on my masseters to help with TMJ (headaches and soreness from jaw clenching) from Dr Yew about a week ago, and Ive already stopped getting headaches and jaw soreness. Dr. Yew is extremely experienced and has a natural eye for aesthetics (he is a true artist!). Dr. Yew also used meditation and other distractions to put me at ease during my treatment which made the injections extremely easy and as pain free as possible.Today, I received Coolsculpting from Tanya Hall on my abdomen and flanks. Tanya specializes in coolsculpting and has many years of experience (she actually attended the Coolsculpting university!). The assessment was informative and Tanya made me feel very comfortable. Tanya explained the expected results, as well as any possible side effects and made me feel very safe and well taken care of. Although the treatment itself was not painful for me, the extreme cooling sensation was a bit uncomfortable in the beginning. However, after the first round I was able to get used to the tingling and slight burning sensation. Tanya also kept me talking and distracted me from any discomfort, as well as let me know what was happening during every part of the treatment. I am looking forward to seeing the results and will update my review in a few months!I have also been using Latisse (eyelash growth serum) for about a year and I cant even tell you how amazing it is. My natural lashes are straight and medium length Asian lashes. However, after using Latisse, the number one compliment I get is on my lashes. People are constantly asking if theyre real or extensions. I always recommend Latisse because it is a miracle worker. I started noticing results after just a month and now my lashes are probably doubled in length, are much thicker, and even half a slight curl now! Although the bottle of Latisse is small, because you only need to use a small amount it lasts me around 6 months!All in all, Dr. Yew and the Aesthetics Hawaii team are wonderful. All of his staff including the front desk are extremely welcoming and make you feel right at home. I definitely recommend seeing Dr. Yew and Tanya, as well as any of the other specialists for any aesthetic or non surgical needs. Not to mention, they also offer a wide range of amazing cosmetic products!UPDATE: It has been a few months since my masseter treatment, and Im thrilled with the results. Since summer began I have gained 10lbs, yet everyone keeps asking me if Ive lost weight. I can definitely see that my face appears slimmer, and even better, I no longer have jaw pain. I went in for a second treatment as I felt some stiffness in my jaw, and I can already feel my jaw starting to loosen.I also tried PDO threads (which help build collagen) in my neck and jawline to help with some laxity in my chin area as well as a preventative aging measure. Dr. Yew was amazing, and used a combination of meditation, ice, vibration, and acupuncture balls to make the treatment completely pain free and comfortable.At 8 weeks post-coolsculpting, I have already noticed a difference in my stomach. My friends have told me that my stomach appears tighter (despite gaining weight this summer). I am told that the best results are seen after 3 months, so Im excited to see even more improvement. I also got my double chin treated, and it was an even more pleasant experience than my first treatment, because I knew what to expect. As usual, Tanya was amazing and such a joy to be around. Im looking forward to having a nice sharp double-chin-free jawline!
I had CoolSculpting for the first time on my abdomen and flanks. I have had 2 children and I am 5’5” - 120lbs and am in good health. I exercise regularly, eat healthy and my weight is consistent. My main concern was to get the stubborn fat and loose skin from my pregnancies to go away in my belly. Wow! It’s been 3 months and my belly looks like it used to be before pregnancy. Surprisingly - the skin is tighter and I can’t see the loose skin anymore. I had 4 cycles at Aesthetics Hawaii with Tanya Hall - who was very informative and honest regarding recovery, pricing and expectations. I had DualSculpting which was using 2 CoolSculpting machines at the same time. It took only 25 minutes for 2 cycles on my belly and there was no downtime. They placed a gel and an applicator which was cold for the first minute but very tolerable. Like putting your foot in cold water - once you get used to it - it was fine. I was able to read my emails and got some work done. Then I had another 2 cycles on my flanks. It permanently reduced the fat in my belly and I could see results after 4 weeks. There was some numbness to the skin for a week but other than that - you couldn’t tell anything was done.The office is centrally located in Honolulu - at Ala Moana center (above Bank of Hawaii) with plenty of parking. The office is clean, modern and the front desk is so helpful and friendly.I am so happy with my results. I highly recommend CoolSculpting if you want to contour your body without surgery or any downtime.
I was so pleased with the results of my treatment. I had an IPL Laser treatment for pigment and some vascular problems on my face. The photo facial was painless with no downtime. They have the newest laser in Hawaii - and the technology is amazing. The skin rejuvenation given by the laser was by far the best Ive had. The brown spots are not gone - but much lighter than before. My pores look smaller and after 2 weeks - my skin texture is still glowing. Ive had botox in my masseters and my crows feet and forehead with Dr. Yew. Im so happy with the customer service. The office is conveniently located at Ala Moana in Honolulu with plenty of parking. I just got married and my wedding photos look amazing. I highly recommend coming here as they explain everything in detail and the results speak for themselves.
Ive been getting treatments done by Dr. Yew since April 2016 & Ive never felt so youthful inside & out as I do now! Not just do I look amazing he actually took my headaches away, Ive had TMJ my whole life & Ive always woke up every night with my jaw & temples in pain, I told dr. Yew about it while I was getting Botox done & he said he could fix it so he gave me a shot of Botox in each jaw muscle, 4 days later my headaches starting going away and by 2 weeks they were completely gone! Amazing!! Not only the pain is gone I noticed that my face started slimming around my jaw area, I didnt realize how large my jaw muscles were until I put before & after pics side by side, I used to look like Popeye the sailor woman! Lol! I love taking pics now which I never used to!In August I got Voluma cheek injections done, OMG! This was the best thing Ive ever done! Ive never had very visible cheek bones & now I have the perfect cheeks not too much so I dont look like a reality tv star! Dr. yew also gave me Sculptra which isnt a filler it rebuilds your natural collagen, he injected it all around the outside of my face where my skin is starting to sag & my laugh lines are getting deeper. Dr. knows Im really scared of looking fake or over filled so he recommended getting Sculptra instead of filler because its so natural and is more long term & the results arent immediate but are amazing cause I dont look puffy its like my laugh lines just started disappearing!The most recent treatment I had done was 1 month ago I had laser treatment for acne scars & brown spots, the brown spots are almost gone & theres a few scars still left, I was going to get another laser treatment but they told me to wait for at least 2 months because the results continue after a month so I may not need to do it again which I do see changes every week. What I love is the fact they turned down taking my money for another treatment until I know for sure I really needed it! What I also like about Dr. Yew that makes him very different from the other doctors Ive consulted with is that he does each type of treatment at different times, in stages, not all at once VS the others dr.s I saw wanted to do everything at the same time, I guess they make more money injecting everything into your face at one time but thats a scary thought!!THIS IS THE BEST PART OF MY REVIEW ................... Last week I took my 18 yr old daughter to 5 college tours in Boston & NYC and at 2 of the universities they signed me in & asked what Ill be majoring in because they thought I was the student!!! OMG! Im having so much fun at 41 yrs old!!! Ive never been one to boast about myself not ever but since Ive been seeing Dr. Yew I look absolutely fabulous, not reality tv fabulous, but real fabulous! LOL! I cant believe Im saying this but thats how I feel every day!Ill be sure to review on the results of the laser treatment I had last month after I get the final results!My advice to everyone is to get a consultation with Dr. Yew then youll understand what Im taking about, consultations are free & so worth the time!!!
I had a great experience with Dr David Yew and his friendly office staff at Aesthetics Hawaii. His office is conveniently located in Honolulu at the Ala Moana Medical Building. I had Kybella injected about 2 months ago but wanted to wait for the results before writing a review. Kybella is an FDA approved injectable treatment that would get reduce the size of my double chin. Im only 53 (140lbs, 55) and no matter how much exercise I do I cant seem to get rid of this stubborn fat under my chin. I didnt want to do surgery as I think Im too young for that. Dr Yew was very informative and set realistic expectations that it would take time for the fat to dissolve and to expect some swelling and numbness over several weeks. No bruising. Its been about 8 weeks since my first treatment and I can see my double chin has almost disappeared.Im writing a follow-up to my original review. I had my first CoolSculpting procedure 6 weeks ago. The makers of Kybella also do CoolSculpting. I used it for my abdomen and flank which were bothering me. I work out and exercise but I still have these love handles which my wife calls it. They used 2 machine at the same time - called DualSculpting. Its basically 2 CoolSculpting machines taking care of both sides at once. The procedure was very easy as they applied gel and then a device that gave an instant cooling sensation. 20 minutes later - they removed the applicator and they massaged the area. It wasnt painful - just felt cold in the beginning. But after a minute - you get used to it and then I started checking emails on my phone. There was NO Downtime! There was some numbness and that is to be expected. After several weeks - the numbness went away and so did 25% of my fat in that area. This is permanently gone. Im looking forward to coming back for another treatment.
I did a lot of research before I made an appointment at Aesthetics Hawaii. The location conveniently located in the heart of Honolulu at the Ala Moana Medical Building. I decided to see for myself if their reviews lived up to the hype. Ive been going to this practice now for a little over a year and I highly recommend coming to him for botox, fillers like (Juvederm, Restylane Silk), laser or Dermapen/microneedling.When I made my initial appointment, the staff was friendly and very clear on what my FREE consultation would be like and what I could expect from the procedure.The consultation was VERY informative and they answered all of my questions so I agreed to be treated with Botox and Xeomin (a newer brand of Botox). I had it injected on my forehead and my frown lines and I love the results! Next visit I decided to have my lips filled. His nurse and assistant made the procedure very comfortable. They went with the filler Juvederm and I love the results so much! Its been about 8 months since Ive had them done and I can still see the filler working.In the year Ive also had Dermapen which is microneedling for acne scars on my face and Sublative laser which is also for acne scars. Out of the two I believe that Sublative laser worked a lot better for the cost. I saw better and longer results. I respect Dr Yews approach which is to do things in stages - like art - while setting honest expectations.Im thinking about getting Kybella next to dissolve the fat under my chin. Its non-surgical and they are one of the first practices to offer this. I trust them as they always test their treatments on themselves first. If they see results - then they offer it.
I had a great experience. The Honolulu office clinic its conveniently located at Ala Moana with plenty of parking. The consultation was very informative regarding my skin care treatment with IPL (skin rejuvenation). Ive had 2 treatments and Ive noticed the brown spots are much lighter. I also had a sublative treatment for my acne scarring and its improved so much. I used it with their Dermapen microneedling treatment and my skin looks and feels so much smoother. I still have some scarring but was told the expectation is that deep scarring will remain but the collagen stimulation will make it less noticeable. I appreciated the honesty. The laser photofacial was very comfortable and there was minimal downtime. I highly recommend this laser (Syneron Candela eLos Plus) as its the newest one in Hawaii.
Leilani is the best!
Love Dr. Yew!
Ive been with this doc/office for 5 years now and have watched them grow!
