What Raleigh Says

★★★★★

"Mara is incredibly professional and detail-oriented, and her bedside manner is excellent. She gives honest, thoughtful advice and never tries to oversell treatments you don't actually need. Before coming to her, I went to another medspa for masseter Botox for TMJ pain and was given 40 units on each side of my jaw. Mara took a much more personalized approach, using only 10 units on each side."

Yuet C. · Botox

★★★★★

"Mara was extremely professional and friendly. My lips look better than they ever have. I've gotten lip filler for years, and she did more in 1 session than I got out of 7+ sessions. Definitely book with her!"

Sydney S. · Lip Filler

★★★★★

"Very grateful to be in such good hands. Honest, kind, and extremely professional. I've been to Mara a few times now, I was nervous about Botox at first but really felt I had all my questions answered before starting anything. She makes you feel beautiful when you walk in and when you walk out."
