“I had my first microneedling treatment done here with Dr. Santa Maria and absolutely love the results. She did a phenomenal job explaining the process and adjusting the settings to achieve optimal results for my skin. I love how glowy I look after 1 month post-treatment and will definitely be back for more! :)”

“I had one round of microneedling done with Dr. SantaMaria and I highly recommend! It was completely painless because of the lidocaine cream. My skin now looks completely dewy and gorgeous! She set me up with very explicit and realistic expectations for the healing process and she checked in a few days after the procedure to see how I was doing. I will be bac…”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐<br><br>This was my first Botox experience, and Dr. Santa Maria made me feel completely comfortable from start to finish. I was a little nervous going in, but she took the time to explain everything, answer my questions, and make sure I felt confident about the treatment plan.<br><br>I wanted to address my crow's feet and achieve a subtle eyebrow lift,…”

“I went to The Aesthetic Atelier for NAD injections and had a consultation with Dr. Santa Maria. We talked about everything from supplements to weight loss and overall health, and I left with so much helpful information.<br><br>Dr. Santa Maria is knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely kind. What I loved most was that she gives it to you straight—no fluff, no…”

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So — this is a records check, and it can be withdrawn when a record changes.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 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.
