“First let me start by saying that Tina is absolutely the best at what she does. I have been going to Tina for years for my brow and lip waxing and more recently facials and peels. I have had the hydra-facial and I loved the way my skin felt and looked afterwards. I have also had several of the oxytrio peels and they are my favorite. My skin looks brighter, tighter, and my brown spots are much less noticeable every time. If you want superb results, I highly recommend Skin and Brows by Tina.”
-Kim Mittemeyer

I never thought that I would be able to wake up feeling confident in my own skin. After countless visits to dermatologists, antibiotic prescriptions, and every facial treatment out there, I thought that I would never find a way to clear my skin. That was until I met Tina. I saw her ad in a magazine and since that day, my skin has only gotten better and better. Her hydra facials are INCREDIBLE and she is so warm, welcoming, and knowledgable. She took me from severe cystic acne to a clear face that I’ve always DREAMED of having. She genuinely wants your skin to glow, and won’t ever give up on you, even if you want to give up on yourself. So many of my friends and family go to her, and once you do, you’re hooked! Whether it’s a peel, hydrafacial, brows, or anything else for that matter, she’s got you covered. I haven’t seen one dermatologist about my acne since meeting Tina, and I don’t intend to. The best part is that because of her: I don’t need to.
THANK YOU TINA!!!

“HydraFacial™ has made such a difference. My skin is so much softer, the pores on my nose are clear and I no longer get break-outs on my chin or have redness on my forehead. Best of all, it has helped clear up my allergy-induced puffy and peeling eyelids.”
-Janine S.

“To my surprise, I noticed a difference in my skin after my first visit. The dark spots were much lighter and my whole face looked moist and glowing. I am so happy because I am getting married next month and my face looks totally different.”
-Carole C.

“Since my HydraFacial™ treatments, I have seen significant improvement with my skin, and received numerous compliments on how nice it looks. My skin is clear, and I no longer have breakouts and problems with my pores. The treatment is simple, relaxing and most importantly, effective.”
-Elmina P.

“My first HydraFacial™ treatment has blown my mind. My skin is incredibly soft and well hydrated and the tone is far more even. I have never used any other form of exfoliation that has such dramatic results. I’m sold!”
-Rachael B.

“I am extremely pleased with the results of my HydraFacial™ treatments. Unlike glycolic peels, there’s no pain, no discomfort and no inflammation at all. I can’t believe how smooth my skin feels now; I am very impressed that the hydrating effect lasts for a week, and the lifting effect is amazing! My forehead and nose used to be oily all the time and now my skin has definitely improved.”
-Lori T.

I’d like to preface this review by saying Tina will make your skin look amazing, plump and smooth… I went here for a facial. I cannot speak on her brow shaping, but I’m sure it’s lovely. She was friendly enough and uses all sorts of innovative products and techniques. I enjoyed how my skin looked for weeks after my appointment with her. The salon doesn’t have a front-desk person, and when you arrive to her suite, you should just wait at the chairs. If you walk into her space, you will walk in on another client. I learned that the hard way.

Since I’d never been there before, I had no idea and there were no signs or warnings or anything, so don’t be a dummy like me. This isn’t a frilly, relaxing type facial. You will be in the clothes and shoes you showed up in and in bright lights the entire time. She explained every step of her process and even mentioned the ingredients she was using, so that was good. I mentioned that I try to only use natural products and she recommended an herbal supplement that I am very happy with. I am extremely confident you will love going here if you don’t want a fru-fru facial, and just want glowing skin!

Tina is a real godsend. My son came to Tina with a severe case of acne. After just 4 acne facials his skin looked amazingly better. He was thrilled with the quick results. She is very professional and she really knows her “stuff”. He regularly uses her products and the products have definitely helped him manage his acne. What we really love about Tina is that she truly cares about her clients.

I’m very impressed with my experience at Skin and Brows by Tina.

Tina is an amazing esthetician. She is very knowledgeable about skin and skin care. For the first time my skin looks great!

Tina is professional, honest and will make your face glow!

I have been seeing Tina for a good year and a half for my brows and HydraFacial, and she’s a perfectionist at both with years of experience.   Her attention to detail always leaves my skin with the best results, and my brows looking perfect. Probably because she trained years with only the best brow guru to the stars, Anastasia Soare, and has worked with the best!

The HydraFacial is really amazing. It’s non-invasive with no downtime, and I have very sensitive skin. When she combines this with Microderm, you can’t go wrong. I feel like my skin is so squeaky clean after I see Tina, like my skin was vacuumed clean!!   The HydraFacial just deep cleans my pores, exfoliates, extracts, and hydrates all at the same time. I’m sold.

After I get it done, my skin looks hydrated, smooth, and plump! Pores are smaller, my face is hydrated, and my makeup goes on amazing. Coming from a fellow Esthetician myself, Tina is one of the best!

Tina is an absolute God sent for someone with problem skin like myself. Since age 10, I have hosted an endless parade of dermatologists, endocrinologists, naturopathic healers, and nutritionists in desperate attempts to heal my savage cystic acne. None of whom ever managed to make a difference in my skin and all of whom told me to simply accept a life of pustules and pock marks. The latter had all but consumed my face before I finally met Tina.

I began seeing her for Dermarolling to level out the scarring I was left with. It was a time of rediscovery for me. I had spent ten years in a relationship where I was either verbally berated or ignored, and had resolved to simply neglect my appearance. The acne that had already been a problem became devastating. When the relationship finally ended, I was left disfigured inside and out.

My mother suggested I try dermarolling, something she had heard about on a local radio program. I searched online and found Skin and Brows by Tina. She immediately made me feel welcome and comfortable. She prepared me for the treatment, and walked me through each step, making certain I understood what she was doing.

After my initial Dermarolling treatment, I was astounded. For the first time in my life, I saw a break in my acne and was actually able to visualize the face that had lay hidden under the rolling and boxcar scars. I had simply come to accept them as “building character”.

Trusting in her skills, I have since adopted her own skincare products “Tina Assi Medical Skincare Acne Control System.” For the first time in my life, feel like I’m not wearing some kind of scar buckled, acne ridden mask, but have a face of my own. It’s truly liberating to talk to another human being and have them actually look you in the face rather than catch their eyes drifting to the latest carbuncle or icepick gouge you’ve acquired.

Her system is by far superior to anything pushed on me by doctors. I only wish I had discovered her product before years of tetracycline discolored my teeth and Accutane rendered me a depressive mess. I consider myself on the road to recovering my life, and Tina is the person who made that possible.

I currently see her for Inno Pen, to help manage residual scarring and acne. I will continue to use her Acne Control System so long as I am living in this skin! I have even begun seeing her for eyebrow waxing/shaping services. It’s funny, but before, I never would have bothered with something like my eyebrows. My face was such a mess I would have thought it pointless. As I rediscover myself, Tina has guided me in proper cosmetic brow shaping techniques, so that I can have them looking great even on the days I’m not lucky enough to see her.

Although we become wiser with age, our appearance does not always comply. This new year, I made the commitment to myself that I would take care of me the best I could. When I met Tina, I asked for her professional observation to help me in this new journey. I had been forced into menopause at an early age due to battling breast cancer, and with this, I had felt extreme hormonal and hydration depletion.

Tina knew immediately that before I started any treatment, that she would need to prep my skin and guide me on some external healing before we could go any deeper. She knew my skin better than I, and her objective was to help me feel and look healthy again. The first treatment I had with her was a Hydra Facial, which gave me this incredible skin back that I had not seen or even felt in over a decade. That puts me back to my 30’s! When Tina knew that my skin was ready, she would consult with me again before we proceeded with any peels which I desired due to hormonal changes.

This past week I had my first VI Peel which was absolutely amazing. The appearance of my skin has given me back the confidence I truly needed to feel great again. I will follow up next month with a procedure called Innopen, to help smooth my fine lines and the small patch of scaring I had left from a minor bout of adult hormonal acne. When this is complete, I will commit to a series of Hydro Facials. What woman would not gift herself a series of Hydra Facials while aging? By far the best gift you could ever give yourself to stimulate and retrain cell growth.

My daughter’s are also clients of Tina’s, and we feel beyond grateful to have her here in San Diego!
