The lady that did the laser procedure was awesome. She explained things thoroughly and was very respectful. The ladies at the front desk on the other hand aren’t all that great. No smiles, no personality. Just blah. So that sucked. But other than that. Great experience.

Wow and double wow! I cannot rave enough about this business. Ive been to the San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Manhattan NY locations and they are all superb. The facilities are super-clean and the technicians professional and kind, always easy to modify appointments (before the 24 hour mark) and the office space is always elegantly styled and with a candle burning to boot! When I visit, I feel like Im a glamorous fictional fashion model in for a touch up before jetting off to Milan or Paris for my next big campaign. Lol The removal procedure itself is as effective as advertised (Im hoping that technology will eventually advance to be able to get those lighter hairs.), and shockingly painless! mild discomfort is how I would describe the initial de-fuzzings, and when the touch-up stage is reached - its absolutely nothing. Twelve stars and a big hug!

SEV came highly recommended from a friend and coworker so I thought I would give it a try. Since the Walnut Creek location was closed, I went to SF for my first appointment. I was pleasantly surprised. From the time I went on the website to see pricing and booking to the time and left my appointment I had a fantastic experience. Website is organized, user friendly, and has all the information you need and you can book your own appointment. The location was very clean and well controlled to limit people going in and out and I felt very comfortable and safe. Staff was knowledgeable and super friendly and answered all my questions and made it quick and painless. Definitely will be going back soon!

I purchased a Groupon for underarm and Brazilian. Alyssa did my laser hair removal. She’s great and made sure all the settings were to my liking and made sure I was comfortable the entire time! I definitely see a difference in my hair growth.

The person that did my treatment was very kind and she answered all my concerning questions. Very good job. However, the employees at the front desk were not pleasant at all. I felt like I wasn’t welcome there.

I would highly recommend SEV. I had previously done laser hair removal from a place in New York and thought it to be very painful. SEV was a completely different experience. The fan/cold air blowing on you takes away any pain of heat.

Review №12

I’ve had several treatments done at this location and have been going for nearly a year now. The appointments are very quick about 10 minutes max which is convenient if you’re someone who likes to be in and out. The nurses are different every time you go and some are more thorough and informative than others which is a con. The receptionists at front desk can be very dull and uninterested in serving you when you are checking in and out which is very disappointing considering they are a huge representation of the salon.The most important thing is the actual results which I’ve been pleased with thus far which is why I keep going. My hair growth has reduced dramatically and I can’t wait to see the end result. I’m only giving 3 stars because of the lack of customer service. I love the results but the experience has room for improvement. If the Walnut Creek location was much closer to me, I would have definitely tried that one out to see if they’re more professional.

Some of the nurses are thorough, but some of them aren’t. I wish they were consistent. The last one I had didnt cover the entire area.Front desk needs a lot of training especially in the SF location. I feel I would have been treated better if I was dealing with robots.

The best salon in the Bay Area. They take COVID protocol very seriously, I feel safe take my treatment here. The front desk is friendly, check-in and check-out are effortless. Nurses there are professional and knowledgeable, the treatments are always thorough.

Review №18

Hate the drive out to SF, since I live in Oakland, but those results HONEY>>> From session 1, Ive gotten awesome results because at Laser Away, on darker skin, they keep the dial down until the last 3... Now at SEV, they start it higher so you can get results. Ive referred about 30 people since 2019..8 sessions with laser away, and now I did 6 sessions with SEV, and my cooter has about 10% hair.. To shave it takes about 5 minutes, and when I do, I dont get any razor bumps, so OMG its worth it yall

Review №19

COVID safe. They are taking it very seriously and maintaining a safe environment for all. However, the reason for my rating is that the hospitality from the ladies up front was almost rude. No eye contact and very short with the guests. It was quite awkward interacting with them for they seemed bothered. I couldn’t wait to get out. My technician on the other hand was great!

I feel this place is a factory now. they book so many people and people in and out the rooms within 3-5 mins and not sure if the nurse clean the safety glass after ea person. This was my 3 time here. Last time my arm pits have hair lift after the procedure and this time the upper lip corners... Sloppy job! Will not go back again!

I went to SEV for my first ever laser hair removal session (brazilian) and I was super nervous but the staff was very nice and explained how everything was going to work. It really wasnt that painful, very manageable and so quick! Less than 5 minutes for the full treatment. They were very safe and clean in regards to COVID. I would highly recommend them!

Well I don’t know where to start so I have been going to San Francisco location from 1 1/2 year and I have got total 9 treatments for full body laser hair removal treatment but I haven’t seen any good result now my hairs are 10 times more thicker and darker after getting the laser from them so I would not recommend this place and not only that I was scheduled to have an appointment in April for another Full body laser hair removal after talking with the nurse she told me some people takes longer to shows the results you might need a couple more treatments. Since my appointment was in April they had to cancel my appointment due to quarantine and they kept a deposit $100 And now they’re making all the excuse not to give me my hundred dollar back ...I highly would not recommend this place...., plzzz guys save your money do not go to this place Don’t get ripped off.!!!! I spend my thousands dollars for nothing.!!

Review №43

My initial experience when I first arrived was good. I was checked in and called back rather fast. I spoke with the nurse briefly about how my first visit didn’t go as expected. Things were pretty good as she was explaining to me the process, which I already knew. I usually get my laser hair treatments from serenity Med Spa in SF so I’m no stranger to treatments. As she put the probe to my skin as I felt a very strong zap!! Now I know it’s normal to feel something but not like what I felt! She turned the machine down and said sorry and asked if I was ok. I told her yes, she put some cream on it and proceeded with my treatment. After she was done she gave me a little bit of the cream she put on the burn in a tin jar for me. She said make sure I put it on the spot so it doesn’t leave a scar. This was yesterday 9/2/2020 today I have a huge black mark right in the side of my face!! Not only is there a scar! My skin is peeling down to my flesh!! I will not be returning. Serenity Med Spa is not cheap by any means but well worth it! I have never had a bad experience with Serenity at all. All in all. If you want quality service don’t go here!

Review №44

I visited SEV SF for my first treatment with them and overall had a good experience - especially with my nurse who performed my treatment. My only reservations with the experience is that upon arrival, the check in process was very blunt, hurried, and somewhat unpleasant. I was hastily handed my pre-op creams, pointed bluntly outside or to the restroom by the receptionist. I understand COVID calls for certain procedures and steps, but it would have been nice if there was some communication around it instead of the way it was relayed. Kind of a weird vibe especially for my first time there. Lina, however, was super sweet and amazing at what she does!

Everything is properly set up for the safety precautions for COVID19, SEV installed an automatic thermometer to take the temperature of each customer before getting inside the facility. The nurses are always very happy and wear PPE properly.

Review №48

Best prices for Laser hair removal in the Bay Area, I had purchased a Groupon for them and then for my surprise the regular rates are similar to the offer I got. I have been to other places with Groupon and immediately tried selling me more sessions for a much much much higher price, lets just say after that experienced I only expected to afford this kind of sessions using multiple Groupon deals but with SEV Laser I dont have to jump around looking for the next deal I can do everything I want in this one location for a very affordable price. My experienced was good I only rate 4/5 stars because trying to communicate with them is extremely complicated even when you get on call back list may take hours to get call back.

Great Covid hygienic practices; clean location and very friendly staff. Krystal, the nurse, was absolutely fabulous! She made me feel comfortable, explained the procedures before starting, ensured I felt comfortable during, and made sure to give me all the aftercare reminders once my appointment was done. I would love to request her for each of my appointments.

I felt very safe with their new COVID-19 safety protocols. Clearly states on door they are limiting waiting room to 3 people. Places on floor indicate how to stay 6 feet apart. There is a large plexiglass window separating you from the person behind the desk. Hand sanitizer bottles everywhere. After you check in, they have you wash your hands. Masks are required the whole time by everyone.Thank you for making your customers feel safe in returning 🙏

Review №63

I’ve just started at SEV after going to LaserAway for a couple of treatments and I’m not really impressed.I’m truly concerned that SEV treats it’s Groupon costumers differently or in general just doesn’t try to help maximize laser results because at LaserAway, the tech zapped about 15 times on my upper lip whereas the tech at SEV zapped 4 times.....and just 4 times in each sideburn area. It honestly seemed like a waste of an appointment and I’m really happy that I used a Groupon and didn’t throw down a $700-800 for what I’m doing.Again I just had one treatment at SEV so I will keep you posted with any changes.

Super super super fast service. Youll be in and out in like 10 minuets. So far I have only done two treatments of Brazilian and underarm. I have definitely seen results after just one treatment, and I have lets say...a lot to work with if ya know what I mean. ;o

Review №70

The worst place i have ever been. First i had to be asked the same long list of question 3 times in a row. They should coordinate a bit more with each other and save our time. The doctor turns to be so unprofessional and rude trying to hurry up because my appointment was a squeezed one between two others. But this is not the worst. The thing is their laser machine is so bad and non effective. I didn’t see any effect after my treatment. At the end i just lost my money for nothing.

Review №74

I went in for my first appointment (to get a Brazilian) and the lady made me feel very comfortable because we all know that can be a little awkward. However, I was kind of second guessing of whether or not she got all the areas given. Only one thing I’d complain about: when she went in to do my underarms, I had been sweating a bit and she didn’t wipe down the sweat, she just went ahead with the procedure. Either way it was a good experience and I’m excited to see results.

Not sure if theres a laser hair removal equivalent to the 4 Cs for buying a diamond but ... this place has got quality machinery, effective results, pretty painless procedures, and affordability all in one.The only thing Id point out is that theres only one couch in the waiting area / the treatment rooms are pretty sterile-looking.Other than that, this place is realllyy awesome for laser hair removal -- and thats coming from someone whos been to LaserAway, a doctor who used the Halo machine, and another laser removal facility in East Bay.

Made appointment (if youre late or cant make it the keep half of your money.)Seems like they do what they can to make it difficult for you to make it to your appointment on time so they can collect.30 minutes of paperwork is required that you should get his email.. but good luck with that...I never got mine.Then Im told while in route Ill need to be there 30 minutes early to fill out paper after Ive already done a face time medical interview.This made my on time arrival impossible.This interview is when they (at no set time) call you.. if youre not available at this undesignated time you it could cost you half youre money.They wont allow this to be dont in office.. the person who did mine was in their backyard!!!Very unprofessional..

Review №87

I’ve gone to SEV three times now but this last time was by far my best experience. I got the most amazing laser technician, Pauline, she was FABULOUS. Wish that I could schedule every appt with her. She not only asked me about any problem patches I had but she went above and beyond to get all the hairs that previous people had missed. She also asked me how the hair grew if she needed to expand the area she was lasering, etc. Also made sure I had aloe on before I left and was the sweetest thing ever. Loved her!!!! Five stars to Pauline (-:

The service on site was quick and painless and the staff was really friendly! Minus one star for the appointment process. I received no less than 6 text messages within 2 hours saying I needed to confirm my appt or risk canceling. Stated I had until 6pm but kept sending the messages with extremely urgent overtones. Otherwise, looking forward to future appts.

Kaitlyn is the best provider Ive ever seen at this location!!! I wish I could request her every time. She gets 5 stars!!!!The only complaint I have about this business is the glade plug-ins in every single room. Its really over whelming and makes me feel sick to be inside for too long(I can barely handle the 15 minutes Im there). I usually show up right on time or a few min late(cuz theyre usually running a few minutes late anyway) Then I dont have to be inside the shop for any longer than I absolutely have to be. I bought a package so Im struggling through the overwhelming fragrance issue.If you are allergic or sensitive to synthetic fragrance you do not want to go here!!!

Review №96

I paid for 6 sessions for male Brazilian. My hair was very patchy and areas still had a lot of hair growing from them. The girl who did the laser the first time hadnt even done a male brazilian before. I was told i could come for a free touch-up but after speaking to the clinic i was told that i would need to pay for a 7th (and possibly 8th and 9th) session to remove the hair. Ive had my neck, shoulders, chest, stomach and arms lasered and i know how it should look after 6 sessions. Ive now had 7 sessions and need to pay $80 for future full sessions (which is cheaper than they charge for the $90 quick touch up session. All in all its been a bad experience. Im hundreds of dollars out of pocket and still hairy but now its patchy.
