“It has been so wonderful to work with Amanda after feeling so confused about what has been causing issues with my skin over the last few years! I finally feel like I am no longer alone in the struggle thanks to all of the information and guidance I have received in addition to treatments. I am just over a month in and already noticing huge improvements to my…”

“It's so hard to even know where to start because Amanda is so amazing! When I first came to Amanda, I had never had a facial before and it couldn't have been a more pleasant experience. As we went through my first facial I had all sorts of questions and Amanda did an amazing job of thoughtfully explaining everything she was doing. It made me so much more com…”

“Amanda is so sweet and knowledgeable! I feel like she's so relatable and the products she carries don't break the bank - which is rare to find these days in skincare.”

“I went to Amanda at Truckee Skin and Acne Clinic for a 'refresh' and had an amazing, relaxing facial in her warm and welcoming studio. Amanda is very knowledgeable and has the tools and services to help with any skin want or need. I love that it includes in-depth consultation, skin assessment, custom double cleanse, chemical exfoliation, custom mask, Celluma…”

“Amanda is extremely talented and knowledgeable with examining skin type and providing the best treatment and product recs that were personalized for me. My facial was so relaxing and left my skin feeling so much more hydrated and calm than when I walked in. She took the time to go over my entire skincare routine and point out the items that are not as suitab…”

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So — this is a records check, and it can be withdrawn when a record changes.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