MAI Client reviews

"I will not go to anyone else in town for the treatment of hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating) other than Dr. Chang. I’m also excited about the recent results of my IPL treatment with Alissa, RN. They are both honest about expectations, treatments, and goals. It’s also fun to visit with the high energy and kind team before services."

"Alissa has completely revamped my confidence. I was so insecure about my deep wrinkles and disappearing lips. She gave me my face back! And Robyn has purified my skin to a point I didn’t know existed. I’ve never looked better thanks to these ladies!"
Y.B.Patient of Alissa Goodman RN
"I cannot begin to say how extremely pleased I am with the results I received from Alissa at Modern Aesthetic. Alissa not only met my expectations, but exceeded them! She took to the time really understand the desired look I was seeking and was able to deliver exactly what was requested! I highly recommend anyone looking for aesthetic work to her and truly believe you will be just as pleased as I was with the results."
