Second Street Medical Spa

I’m glad I came here. The people here are wonderful and I am very happy with my results. I highly recommend Dr. Anna.

Staffs are all very nice. My issue with this place is they cancelled my appointments twice last minute. After waiting for the whole month to have IPL done, they called and cancelled couple days before my appointments.
Once I tried to reschedule, I have to wait for another 5 weeks for the next available day. The lady that helped me reschedule said” We have a really good machine and it worths waiting” …
I just laughed because it s not her fault but I thought «The treatment will not work if I have it done every 3 months instead of every 3 – 4 weeks as it should be !!»
It has happened to me twice during the time I have been trying to finish my 3 IPL sessions from Groupon
I would recommend to GO TO OTHERS PLACES to get the maximum results because I dont think you can have IPL done here every month as it should be.

Just arrived here for my consultation with Dr. Gevorgyan after a 2.5 hour drive. I received a phone call 3 minutes prior to my appointment, and was parking and when I answered they hung up. I tried for the next 10 minutes to call because I couldn’t find the place. I found it and made it in when they told me they had been trying to no avail to contact me and that they had a bad number but the Dr. Was not even in the office due to a plane delay the day before. Mind you, they had just called my phone, so they did have a valid number for me. There are terrible reviews under Dr Gevorgyan (mainly the staff) elsewhere on Unilocal,so I’m not sure if this is a new venture or a new business name but I absolutely should have listened to those warnings and not wasted an entire day making a long drive to get here.
Update: The spa manager did leave me a message personally apologizing and offered me a 20% discount. While I do appreciate this, it was still a long disappointing wasted day and I will look for something closer to home.

I’ve yet to see the results of the hair (too soon), but the service was excellent! Riza the nurse was patient, kind, and helpful with my baby who I had to bring because I had no sitter. They even squeezed in my appointment early because I was moving.

I am still undergoing treatment on a few areas, Dr. Anna & the girls @ Bixby are amazing!!, Tracy at Second Street is a miracle worker, so sweet & patient, all the girls are make you feel very comfortable, seriously the best staff ever! I had Smart Lipo on upper & lower abs, flanks & neck, had fat transfer from my abs into my butt, I am so happy with the results… not going to say that it is a painless experience, but the results far out weigh the pain

My husband got laser hair removal for his back. It was great at first, little to no regrowth, fast appointments, nice technician, but then it grew back. :-(we were raving about it at first but now I cannot recommend at all. Very disappointed.

I bought a laser hair removal package from here. Corrinna has been the person who treated me, I cant say enough about her professionalism and how well she does her job. I have received laser treatment in the past, and the process was slow and not effective. Corrinna does the treatment in a fast effective manner. I would not bring my business any where but here and I am glad that I was lucky enough to have Corrinna treat me. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SALON !!!

I bought a Groupon for six treatments $ 130.00
after five treatments the facial hair is still there this cost quite a bit considering I tip heavily each time and now I see no progress. I was told initially at consultation that six treatments would be more than sufficient for the type of hair on my face which is very fine and not thick course at all I do have the dark skin the dark hair as required and I am med skinned Hispanic. On my fifth and last visit I was turned away because they did not have my appointment in their computer neither for the man in front of me that was there for the same type of treatment they turn both of us away apologizing that somehow they must of made a mistake they changed computer systems. it’s to our loss not too theirs that we lose out on this appointment, having to drive clear across town from the other side of Long Beach. I have one treatment left its probably not even worth going back for so I guess they can keep it. Save your money and go somewhere else that has trained staff that knows what they are doing this can really run major time and, the money if you don’t.

I purchased a groupon for 3 ipls with microdermibrasion. I’ve done of 3 appointments so far. They are nice at office, treatment seems fine (though nothing happened with my 2 ipls, no flaking of dark spots, etc, might just not work for me). I then purchased a package of 6 lasar hair removals at first appointment which I regret.
It’s impossible to get an appointment for any less than 4 weeks out. So I’ve tried to move appointments that I originally scheduled 5 weeks ago, but if I want to reschedule I have to wait another 4 weeks for next available appointment leaving 9 weeks between treatments that are supposed to be spaced out 4 – 5 weeks. It seems to be poor planning in number of groupons sold.
I’ll finish these packages, but will not purchase another package that requires multiple appointments to see results.

I have been going to Second Street MedSpa for everything from laser hair removal to Zerona treatments for the past year. I love their staff, the lasers they use work better on my skin when I have compared services to another reputable MedSpa for laser hair removal, and I will continue coming here forever. I love this place, they offer great prices and professional staff for everything to keep you young and gorgeous!

This is a great little place. I bought a Groupon for 3 IPL treatments and microdermabrasion, and I’m really glad I did. I really like their laser, it got rid of some brown spots, and lots of broken capillaries, with 0 downtime. Everyone was really nice, and both technicians were very thorough.
One thing though, posted in the office is a sign saying if you’re more than 15 minutes late, you lose your appointment, but both times I’ve been, they kept me waiting 30 minutes.
Their prices are great, it’s a cute, clean place, I’ve already recommended it to a few friends.

I first discovered Second Street Medical Spa on Groupon and went in for laser hair removal. Initial impression was good, staff was friendly, office was non traditional, small and looked a bit like an apartment. Prices were extremely reasonable so I began other treatments such as B12/​lipotropic shots, which I get every Monday to keep my energy up as advised by general practitioner. 2 weeks ago on Monday I got an email letting me know the nurse called out that day and they had no one to administer the shot. I was disappointed that only one person was able to administer the shot but I understood and called and rescheduled to this Monday, December 14. I went into my appointment 10 minutes early, waited patiently and then 15 minutes later was told they «forgot to order syringes.» They also don’t do laser hair removal on Mondays so I am wondering if they didn’t have syringes and couldn’t preform hair removal what they were doing that day? They offered me a free $ 10 shot which I appreciated but I am still disappointed that they didn’t call me before I made the hour drive in traffic to make that appointment. I’m also surprised they didn’t check their apts for the day and see if they were prepared for each one. I feel that this place has potential but needs more/​better staffing. Certain services are not offered on all days, closed on Mondays, some people can’t do some things… I will finish out my shots and laser hair removal but will definitely go back to paying more and getting better service at DermFx ASAP.

I had my Laser Hair Removal done here, and I absolutely love it. Corinna, the nurse, and Lauren and Angel in the front were very pleasant, and accommodating. They have attention to detail, and are very friendly and hospitable. I highly recommend Second Street Medical Spa for anyone wanting treatment.

I was actually convincing my mom to come here to do laser hair removal on her underarms. However, after Friday’s visit, I recommended her to go elsewhere.
I was pretty disappointed the last time I came here for my third treatment for laser hair removal. The nurse did the whole thing so fast. I know it is a fast procedure, however, I’m accustomed to nurses going over a second time, and taking the time to go over the whole area. However, on Friday, the nurse rushed through the whole procedure, did not go over the area a second time, and missed quite a few spots. She paid no attention to what she was doing. After the first and second treatment, I did not see regrowth until the end of the third week. However, after the last treatment, I’m getting growth two days later. It’s like the nurse didn’t even do anything…
Update: Got a phone call and got an appointment to come in Saturday. Hopefully the nurse does a better job this time!

I lost my original tip, so I should rewrite a review. Dr Gevorgyan was nice, good bed side manners. My sister will be doing the same procedure with her in November.
Thank you girls!

I’ve been a few times and had no problems with my appointments or service. I don’t know why anyone would have any problems. Small office. Very clean and attentive. The nurses and aestheticians are very informative about the procedure and expectations. Used a groupon deal with no problems.

DO NOT PURCHASE LASER HAR REMOVAL HERE!!! I spent lots of money here. i purchased 4 different hair removal packages just to be left disappointed at the end. 75% of my hair has grown back and my facial hair i feel got worse because you have to shave with a razor prior to appts. The ladies doing the hair removal were nice but i think they all knew that their lasers didn’t work and they were ripping people off. I went through 4 different people in the 6 months I was there.

Other than they always grab the wrong chart for me, that’s just the receptionist not paying attention.
JUNE IS THE BEST!!! June has been doing my laser treatments for the past 6 months. And she gets every single one of these stars. With this being my first laser treatments she made me feel comfortable she has so much energy and love for her clients !! She really made it a pleasure to come into this business.
As far as the business itself it is in a really weird location so it was hard to find at first. But once you do make it inside. the office is small but clean and organized very very homey feel.
Now that my laser treatments are done, I need to find more hair to be removed off my body! I miss you June!

The laser treatments SUCK here. Overbooking, half ass treatment sessions, and a very poor quality laser. I went to another place and got a good 2 months of no regrowth. Here, it just kept coming back consistently. The power of the laser is old technology I found out. Three sessions, the woman went so fast, it was no wonder nothing happened. One treatment I complained and she took her time. It did help a little more, but when I went back, my session was a waste of time. She sped through again because I waited an hour, and more patients were waiting after me. DO NOT GET LASER HERE !!! You’re wasting your money. Go to somewhere with a YAG laser, and doesn’t overbook so you get quality treatment.

Excellent. I have been going for my underarms and am pleased with my two treatments I have had so far.
Before the first treatment I had a little trouble calling in as I had to reschedule, I was ‘forgotten’ on hold — but they were very apologetic.
The first time I went in, the person before me was late to their apt, therefore I had to wait around 15 mins for them to be finished with — with was ok as I had to complete some paperwork as a new client/​patient. If I didn’t have this paperwork to be done I would have insisted to go in first as I was there on time (actually around 5 mins early as I knew there would be paperwork) so ladies (and gentlemen) please arrive on time as there are other people who actually arrive at their scheduled time.
I have been seen by two nurses. The first was careful about ensuring I had prepared correctly (no deodorant etc) and explain what would be happening as I have never been layered before. She also applied some aloe or something after to help. The second nurse wanted to make sure that I didn’t have any bad reactions and see how I faired after my first treatment. She did not apply the aloe stuff but she was excellent.
