“I completed a course of three prp microneedling sessions over the course of 7 months and am really pleased with the results. I had some hyperpigmentation from old acne scars I wanted to fade and some unevenness on my face. The scars have faded and my skin is much more even toned than before. Thank you Dr Deskins!”

“I've been seeing Dr. Ashika at Avena Aesthetics for microneedling with PRP for about eight months, and my experience has been amazing. From my very first consultation, she took the time to understand my existing acne skincare routine and thoughtfully explained how microneedling would fit into my overall treatment plan. She provided detailed pre- and post-pro…”

“I had an amazing experience with Dr. Deskins. I came in for PRP and microneedling treatments on a large surgical scar on my knee, and the results have been incredible. By the third session, the visibility had reduced drastically, much more than I expected!<br>She’s also extremely kind and professional, and made me feel comfortable throughout every session. I…”

“I had my first microneedling treatment done here and the experience was fantastic. I’ve struggled with hyperpigmentation, and even after my first session, I noticed my skin looking smoother and more even. The environment was clean, relaxing, and professional, and she made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. I highly recommend her services…”

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So — this is a records check, and it can be withdrawn when a record changes.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