V-Star for Rosacea

by charmed90277

My dermatologist actually referred me to Celibre. He was using an IPL for my Acne Rosacea and dry skin and I was not improving. I did not get my hopes up because I have tried a lot of treatments. My skin always looks chapped and nothing has been able to improve it. What I liked about the approach was that Lori, my nurse, did not start me on the laser treatments until we went over everything I was using on my face first to determine if something could be making the dryness worse. I was using a lot of products and we eliminated a few of them before starting the laser treatments. Three months later, I am happy to say that my skin has improved by leaps and bounds. The dryness and cracking is gone (maybe because of both the products I eliminated and the lasers) and my skin looks much fresher and younger with no irritation. I am sticking to a maintenance program of laser treatments every couple months to keep my skin looking the way it is now and I would recommend that to others with Acne Rosacea.

• Pros: Time spent with nurse (Lori)

First time botox patient

by salleeatdisney

I went to Celibre the first time I tried Botox. I didn't know what to expect because it was my first time, but Michelle the nurse that treated me was very knowledgeable and willing to take the time to share her knowledge and experience and I liked that. She helped to get rid of the anxiety I had. I was worried about the lines around my eyes on the sides and after the treatment they were gone. I will be visiting again soon.

• Pros: Took time to calm my anxiety

Was Very Dissapointed

by mcorb

I was very hesitant to move forward with this company because I got the feeling like I was being rushed. But my sister was treating here and we carpool, so I figured I would go ahead.

I have been to other places in the past and frankly this one really pales. Almost every time I have to wait a LONG time and sometimes I feel rushed through the treatments - how can I get results? When I expressed my concern the nurse wasn't mean exately, but I kinda felt ignored. I would pass on this one.

• Pros: none for me
• Cons: unhappy with service and too pricy

Response from this business

Celibre– September 28, 2009 at 16:34:56 PDT

While we can't comment directly because we do not know if this is a patient and if so, who it is, we will comment generally. Many years ago we initiated a program whereby if a patient waits more than 20 minutes for their treatment they are issued a $25 service credit. In all of 2009, we have issued less than 10 credits, an indication of how seriously we take wasting our patient's time. If we cancel or reschedule a patient appointment within 24 hours of their appointment (for any reason) we issue a $50 service credit. Finally, patients are scheduled in blocks of time that are generally 15 minutes longer than their appointments. The first reason is so that we have time to perform a thorough treatment and the second is so that our nurses may have time to properly chart the treatment afterward. While we take reviews on Citysearch very seriously, the lack of details about treatment and the manner in which this review conflicts with the way we run our business calls it into question.

Botox and Restylane Excellent Teaching

by mckessen51

I went to Celibre for Botox and Restylane to look younger. Lori in the Torrance office did my treatments and I was very pleased with the results. I felt I looked 3-5 years younger after the injections. One of the best parts was the education about the procedure. We spent lots of time talking about different options and I really felt a part of the decision process.

• Pros: Great Information from Lori
