Medical Spas in Santa Barbara

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I completed a one-year full-body laser hair removal package at Miramed DaySpa and had an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. I’m beyond happy with the results — truly worth it.

Renee was incredible throughout the entire process: professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel comfortable every single visit. The spa itself is clean, welcoming, and very well run.

I would highly recommend Miramed DaySpa to anyone considering laser hair removal or other treatments. Couldn’t be happier!“

“Dr. Payne is awesome. So down to earth, caring and very accessible.

My wife sees Dr. Liang and feels much the same about her.“

“I began seeing Dr. Edman in April of this year and have lost 50 pounds during the following 8 months. His approach is safe, effective and not as expensive as many of the other treatments people are getting online and elsewhere. My blood sugar and cholesterol are now in normal ranges and I'm no longer considered obese! Win/win!“

“I found Caren about a year and a half ago after getting fed up with still having adult acne in my mid-twenties. I had literally picked up my prescription for accutane, which I swore was going to be my absolute last resort after struggling with cystic acne for 10+ years, but decided to try her as my final attempt to clear my skin before trying accutane. After about 4 months of working with her and religiously sticking to the routine she put together, my skin cleared up. This is going to sound like a fake ad, but I have had ZERO cystic break outs once that 4 months passed and we got my skin under control. Something that I thought was impossible without internal medication given my acne was hormonal. I can genuinely say that Caren changed my life, and I feel so grateful for her help in getting my confidence back! If you have skin issues, even ones that seem impossible, Caren will help you figure it out.“

“If you're considering double jaw surgery, look no further than Dr. Michael Gunson and Lori Heinze in Santa Barbara / Goleta—they are truly the best in the field. They take on the toughest cases, and I am beyond grateful that my Ohio orthodontist referred me to them.
I had double jaw surgery (DJS) at age 56 with Dr. Gunson, and I could not have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The entire process—from my initial consultation in January 2022, to my surgery in March 2024, throughout my follow up care to my one-year final appointment in March 2025—was exceptional.
My recovery was easier than I expected, and the results have been life-changing. I no longer suffer from daily headaches, neck, or shoulder pain. My severe snoring disappeared overnight—I now sleep peacefully through the night for the first time in years. People often tell me I look ten years younger! But the biggest, most immediate difference? As soon as I woke up from surgery, I took one deep breath in and knew it had worked. My airway was increased by four times in size, and for the first time, I could breathe fully and freely.
Dr. Gunson is a brilliant, meticulous, and compassionate surgeon who specializes in these procedures, and his expertise is evident at every step. Lori Heinze and the entire team (Carol, Kim, Jasmine) are incredibly kind, intelligent, and hardworking—they made me feel completely supported throughout the entire journey.
My only regret? Not doing this years ago! I was nervous and kept putting it off, but now, knowing what I do, I would have done it sooner without hesitation. If you are considering jaw surgery, trust Dr. Gunson and his team—you will be in the best hands possible.
A million thank yous to Dr. Gunson, Lori Heinze, and the entire staff! You gave me a new quality of life, and I will forever be grateful.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly, highly recommend!

“This review is long overdue. I went to Glamour Laser Skin Center for a laser treatment 7 months ago & went in again for my 1st botox treatment about 2 months ago... My job requires me to travel once every couple of months and I was due for a laser treatment when I found myself in Santa Barbara. A couple of phone calls to find this wonderful place & a consultation later- they fit me in. I got my arms, underarms and upper lip done. Oh were they in need. The staff was so friendly & it was such a great atmosphere I wished I could make it my regular spot..... So I thanked them, dded then to my instagram page & said I'd visit the next time I was in town. Back in L.A I kept seeing them post on I.G and followed them.... Then I saw THE post. The post showing pictures of their new nurse with A list celebrities she had treated. Being as I was set to go to S.B for work the next month guess what I did? yes ! Called & booked my FIRST ! Yes FIRST Botox treatment. Here I am 2 months later & I still cant get over the difference it has made. Not only do I look AmazinG , my self confidence is thru the Roof! Thank You GLSC.... You guys rock! See you soon ;-)“

“Had a Ultherapy treatment with Pamela, my experience here was great. The office staff is friendly and welcoming and Pamela is kind, warm and very thorough. From start to finish I had a very positive experience. I am starting to see some nice results and I would not hesitate to return or recommend the services here. Exceptional.“

“Jessica is so skilled and gentle I've never bruised. She is also a kind and easy going woman- been going to her for years now.“

“Best in town for injectables and lasers! I trust all of my patients with her because I know she will be honest, safe, and execute the most natural results.“

“I’ve been to see Cody severe times for Botox and waxing. She is amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and heard.“

“Jacquelyn is compassionate and very kind. I have been seeing her for around a year and her acupuncture has been very helpful for my migraines and inflammation. I feel she genuinely cares for my wellbeing and does everything she can to support my health.“

“I've been a client for years now, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the care I’ve received. The staff is warm, friendly, and knows everyone by name. Their love for being at the clinic really shines through in their attitudes. Byron at the front desk always makes you feel welcome, and Matt’s passion for his work is evident in his attitude and attentive care he provides. Elaina is full of warmth and joy, making every visit a positive experience. With no appointments needed, it’s easy to fit into any schedule. If you’re unsure about their services, schedule a consultation—they offer genuine, pressure-free advice. This team is amazing!“

“Dr. Kristi Harter is simply amazing!!! Her lady that runs her front desk has only been there a few months now, but she runs that front desk with a lot of love and kindness. The front desk lady, has handled all my many calls, scheduling me non-stop and she always returned my call, I have referred others to Dr. Harter and I can honestly say they all say the same thing, Dr. Harter is awesome!! and her new front desk lady, creates so much beauty and glow that I hope she never leaves.“

“Amazing cryo chamber! The staff here are always so welcoming and helpful. Lots of great promos to take advantage of in a serene, clean and open environment.“

“I saw Kaitlin Williams the PA who I highly recommend. She did my full body skin check and was extremely thorough and also gave me treatment advice/options for my minor skin concerns. Very professional. Also the clinic was very nice.“

“I tried massage with Ani and it was very beautiful experience. My body felt super relaxed and really better. I will definitely come back and recommend !“

“I had a facelift last year with Dr. Lowenstein. I am beyond grateful for him and his entire team. Everyone was warm, knowledgeable and treated me like family. It’s been 6 months since my surgery and I am so happy with my results. Thank you immensely for everything ❤️“

“I’ve been to Evolutions Spa twice now, once for a med spa service and more recently for a day spa massage, and both experiences have been consistently exceptional.

My first visit was for a med spa treatment, and everything was handled with a lot of care and professionalism. Nothing felt rushed, everything was clearly explained, and as a first time client they took the time to walk me through all the options and pricing upfront so there were no surprises. It felt thoughtful, organized, and very comfortable from the start.

Today I came back for a day spa massage, and it was just as impressive, if not better.

For the day spa experience, they encourage you to arrive early and stay after your appointment to use the amenities, which makes it feel like a full reset rather than just a service. The sauna, showers, and locker room are all beautifully maintained and feel very clean and elevated, with secure code lockers, multiple robe and sandal sizes, and attention to every detail. The little details really stand out too, like hair ties, combs, razors, envelopes for jewelry, makeup remover, body lotion, and other thoughtful essentials available in the locker area. My favorite part was the sauna, it made such a difference in how relaxed and grounded I felt going into my treatment.

The tea lounge is another highlight. It’s softly lit with a waterfall feature, cucumber water, small snacks, and a curated tea selection, creating a calm, quiet space that naturally slows everything down before your service.

The front desk staff were also consistently kind and welcoming. Melisa was so kind and welcoming and really made me feel at home. She gave me a full tour during my first visit, never rushed anything, and made everything easy and comfortable while answering all my questions.

For today’s massage, I saw Vickie, and she was sweet too, truly an angel. I didn’t even have to explain anything, she just knew exactly where I was holding tension and worked on those areas perfectly. I work out regularly and also sit at a desk for long hours, so I tend to get pretty tight, but it honestly felt like she could read my mind.

What made the experience even more special was the atmosphere during the massage. There was a gentle ceiling fan running and at first I thought it was a sound machine because the sound was so soft and steady. It genuinely sounded like rain in the background, and paired with the music it created such a calming, immersive feeling.

After the massage they brought me a glass of cucumber water, which was such a nice finishing touch. I finished with another sauna session and a shower, and I left feeling incredibly refreshed. Sometimes leaving right after a massage you can feel a little dazed or groggy, but this felt like a reset on top of a reset. I walked out feeling completely clear, clean, and renewed.

I genuinely left feeling rejuvenated, like a completely different version of myself.

Overall, Evolutions Spa has been exceptional across both visits. It’s thoughtful, well run, and genuinely restorative. I won’t be going anywhere else.“

“Taylor, Kaylee, and the whole team are magical skin fairies ?‍♂️ highly recommend if you’re in the Santa Barbara area!“

“The Gspa Los Olivos is a great local med spa. I love that I don’t have to drive down to SB. I see Karen here, she is amazing. She takes her time and listens to what you want and does not go overboard, which was my greatest fear. She also is a good time and it’s always fun seeing her. Thanks again!“

“Nancy at Mudita was very professional and knowledgeable. She listened to my concerns, answered questions and spent time with me to discuss services that would be benefitical within my budget.“

““I went in for a Hydra facial today and Gianna took such great care of me! She’s so sweet, patient, and made me feel totally comfortable. My skin is literally glowing right now. If you’re thinking about booking a facial in Montecito, go see Gianna — she’s amazing!” I highly recommend her!!“

“I am grateful to dr Turner that he ordered tests and they helped me to take care of important issues“

“I cannot recommend Dr. Yegiyants enough!!!From start to finish, the entire experience was incredibly professional, efficient, and thoughtfully organized...

One of the biggest reasons I chose her was because she’s a female surgeon, and that genuinely made such a difference for me… I felt completely comfortable, understood, and safe throughout the entire process!!

She really listened to what I wanted, which was a very natural, subtle correction to something I had been insecure about for basically my whole life. She absolutely delivered!!! I can’t thank her enough

The surgery itself was quick and easy. Aside from taking it easy the afternoon of my procedure I was already up and walking around and even going out to lunch the next day. I experienced minimal pain, minimal scarring, and virtually no downtime, which honestly exceeded my expectations.

Her post-op care and recommendations were also amazing. She referred me to a medical-grade hyperbaric chamber for recovery, which was such a thoughtful and elevated touch. As someone who’s really into biohacking and optimizing recovery, I appreciated that level of care so much…. it made a noticeable difference.

Now four months post-op, I’ve had zero issues and feel like I truly have a new lease on life. I’m beyond happy with my results and so grateful I chose her!!“

“Great job - thorough and professional. Staff is warm and friendly, doc is considerate and patient.“
