“Long overdue review - I have been coming to James in Burlingame for the hydrafacial regularly for a few years now and I love it. Before I started coming my skin was dull. Now I no longer wear makeup because my skin glows. All of the products they use and sell are top of the line. I actually end up saving money in the long run because I've stopped buying rand…”

“I’ve been going to James for Hydrafacials for the past two years and he has completely transformed my skin. He’s very thorough, and takes the time to really assess what your skin needs each visit. My skin always looks brighter, clearer, and more hydrated after seeing him, and I genuinely trust his recommendations. I also recently had a consultation with Nur…”

“I had an amazing acne facial with James at Moda Aesthetics in Burlingame! He was incredibly thorough and gentle, and I could literally feel my face getting lighter as he worked. He took the time to remove buildup and congestion I didn’t even realize was there, and my skin felt so clean and refreshed afterward. James is professional, knowledgeable, and has su…”

“I had a HydraFacial at Moda Skin Care with James, and it was such a great experience! He is very gentle, professional, and made me feel completely relaxed throughout the treatment. The spa is spotless and welcoming, which adds to the comfort. My skin feels amazing afterward, and I’ve already decided to come back every month. Highly recommend James if you’re…”

Screened means the public record holds up: their identity matches, their site is real, their copy doesn’t lie.
GlowRanked Verified is a separate service, and a different question. It reads what the public record cannot see: who the medical director is, whether malpractice insurance is current, who’s actually holding the syringe, and whether the spa has written protocols for emergencies. The owner submits those documents and a person reads them. It is not part of what I checked on this page and it does not change it.
So — this is a records check, and it can be withdrawn when a record changes. It is not a judgement about the care in the room. Ask the questions below before you book.
What to ask before you book.
- 01
Who’s the medical director?
California requires every med spa to have a licensed MD or DO supervising. If the front desk can’t name them, that’s your answer.
- 02
Who is actually injecting me?
RN, NP, PA, or MD — get the credentials in writing. Estheticians cannot legally inject. Ask before you sit in the chair.
- 03
What product brand and concentration?
Real Botox / Dysport / Juvederm with a lot number. If it’s vague ("a similar neurotoxin"), walk out.
None of these three is part of my screen — I have no way to see a licence from the public record. All three are on you to ask, and if they fumble any of them, that’s your sign.

This spa cleared all three website checks: a website that holds up, details that agree, and advertising that stays legal. I report them here; since 2026-09-01 they do not decide the mark, because a spa's own website is not a public record.
I wasn't able to verify a license for this location. Read 2026-09-04.

I checked the state's licence file, the federal provider registry, the Medical Board's public record, this spa's own website and Google's listing — the lines above say which came back with a record, which came back empty and which I have not read — and I do not rate this spa or recommend it.
