“If I may say something a little selfish, I hope Dr. Choi never retires. Dr. Choi is not only a phenomenal doctor, but also someone who feels like a respected senior figure in my life, with both compassion and wisdom. Every time I visit his office, I feel a sense of calm and comfort. I have received Botox and Kenalog injections from him, as well as invaluable…”

“Dr. Choi is best in class as well as best in his field. I wanted his opinion if I should get my eyelids done as well as a mini lift, and he told me I didn’t need either. Instead, he suggested some innovative non surgical procedures that would take care of what was bothering me. He earned my 100% trust and loyalty in that moment as I know no other surgeon in…”

“I had double eye-lid surgery with Dr. Choi and the whole procedure went incredibly well! Dr. Choi truly cares about the results and is very meticulous in his work. I really appreciate how patient he was in explaining the process in detail and what the result may look like. He made some wonderful suggestions and I (as well as my family) am very pleased with t…”

“A very Happy customer 😊<br>I had very uneven monolided eyes and was looking for a natural double eye-lid crease. I specified to Dr. Choi that I wanted the crease to touch the inner corners and look as natural as possible. During the consultation, he was very patient and really listened to what I wanted.<br><br>On the surgery day, the nurse was very kind and…”

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So — this is a records check, and it can be withdrawn when a record changes.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