I really appreciate the staff at Skin Ovations, they really go above & beyond to make me feel like my concerns are important and they also really take the time to talk with me in detail about what's going on with my skin, and as nervous as I was the first time, Tina & Jason really made me feel calm. All of the staff are very knowledgeable about what's best & the office is relaxing, I am super happy I discovered this place.

Being in healthcare myself, I am extremely picky about any sort of provider, let alone my face. I have been to numerous consults over the past years and never have gotten any treatments done. I meant Wendi when I was working in a office in their building, and Wendi’s geniunity, knowledge, and experience is the reason why I keep coming back. I trust her to do anything that I feel is needed and know I’m in the best hands. I recently saw Tina and she was just as phenomenal. Not only am I in great hands, but supporting a women owned buisness is something I strive and aim to support! Thank you guys!

I got lip filler for the very first time with tina and I couldn’t of asked for better results. Tina answered every silly little question I had and talked me through everything she was doing. The numbing made it painless and I had very minimal bruising. You can tell that Tina knows exactly what she is doing and everyone there was so sweet and helpful. I would recommend skinnovation to anyone on the fence about fillers and will definitely be returning here in the future.

Tina was such a peach! She has a welcoming personality and you feel like you already know her upon first meeting. I'm slightly neurotic about my injections as I don't want too much, but just the right amount (who doesn't?!). It being our first time working together, she was understanding of my needs and let me know she would mark the muscle map with how much we used and see if it worked out when we meet for the two-week follow-up. You can tell she really loves this work and takes pride in it! I'm looking forward to working with she and Wendi (IPL photo-facial) in the future!

Wonderful experience today at SkinOvation! I consulted with Wendy today and feel so much more informed about skin care. She’s great! We started today with the first of three IPL photo facials. I’m very pleased with the professionalism of the office and the service provided. I already have a darkening of the brown spots so this tells me it’s already working. I have hyperpigmentation and rosacea, and in the past IPL worked very well for me. I’ll update later to advise on the results! Can’t wait I return in February and hoping to try the micro needling in the future. Very happy customer!

I came in yesterday with my skin very irritated and broken out! Emillie took care of me and did a treatment that left my face feeling calm and less red. By today the results are amazing! I’m so happy to continue my skin journey with Emillie and the team at Skinovation!! I’ve been frustrated over the years with my skin and general skincare routine and these ladies have given me hope! I couldn’t be happier!

I have been going to Skinovations for close to a year. From day one, Tina Franklin has shown professionalism, kindness, support, and lended a listening ear regarding my plan of care and what I wanted. She takes her time during all of our sessions and explains the treatments thoroughly. She even went as far to call and text me after hours to see how I was doing. Skinovation offers a wide variety of services. I would highly recommend Skinovation to my friends and family as I am completely satisfied with all the services I have received.

I had a wonderful experience at SkinOvations! Friendly check-in, easily navigable online registration, convenient and comfortable location. I came as a newbie for a consultation and left with my first round of toxin administered by the amazing Tina, RN! I already see results and can’t wait to come back for my facial peel, all included in my affordable Skin Ovate Me membership. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my face!

I’m so impressed with my treatments at SkinOvation!! I received a series of PRX treatments and it has completely changed my skin!!. I suffered from post inflammatory hyperpigmentation from acne. The kind of hyperpigmentation that makes you still feel like you’re battling the acne even though it’s gone.The PRX Peel helps to tighten, resurface and tone without peeling the skin and there’s absolutely no downtime!!I will definitely be back!! these ladies are so knowledgeable and sweet. I especially loved working with Tina she makes you feel right at home and has your best interest at heart. 💗

Wendi is truly an injector magician. I’ve been a patient of her’s for years. She works with you to achieve your goals and enhance your natural features. I continue to trust her judgement, advice and professional expertise.

I had a great experience. The follow up after my appointment was awesome. They wanted to make sure that I was happy with my service. Which means a lot. I highly recommend SkinOvation. I was happy with my results.

Really excited about this practice! I have followed Wendy for years, traveling many miles to seek treatment! I've never been disappointed. Unlike other med spas, you are treated as an individual and not as the often rushed next appointment. These ladies create a personalized experience and offer innovative care that you will not find elsewhere. Highy recommend.

Tina and her team are absolutely wonderful. I wouldn’t trust any other person with my face besides this talented woman. She listens to exactly what you want and guided with her expertise she gives you exceptional results. Can’t recommend enough.

My love affair with Wendi began years ago and I will follow her anywhere. Skinnovation, with Tina and team is the very best endeavor for her, and I’m so happy to watch her grow and take on this new role. She is the only injector I trust explicitly with my face and aging process. She makes highly educated recommendations and listens to my needs without judgement. Everyone always wants to know how I stay so young looking. No secret. I have a master working with me every step of the way.

Tina is the most talented injector I have ever been to. She has completely changed the game for my skin . I noticed my skin starting to look more mature, my makeup wasn’t going on right , my pores were out of control . She changed all of that for me with PRX treatments. My skin is so smooth and lifted and I feel like I have my 20 year old skin back . She has my pout perfectly plump . Just go try her ! You won’t be disappointed!
