My first facial with this location and it was nice. My technician was very careful with me but she did a great job. A little pricey but it was worth the extra pampering that I did for myself. Clean and professional. Thank you!

Colleen is wonderful, and I always look forward to seeing her for my monthly treatments! She is very professional and knowledgeable, always ensuring that my questions are answered. Colleen also understands that skincare is not one size fits all, and makes certain to tailor her recommendations to suit each clients needs. Whatever plan we choose together for my treatments, I know that Colleen stands by her professional recommendations and is actively working with me towards my skincare goals. I appreciate her help! The rest of the staff at Artavi is also great - they are personable, professional, and effectively communicate both before and after treatments. Great experience all around!

Alexa was wonderful! I’ve had diamond glow and laser genesis, and Alexa does a great job at making me comfortable and explaining the process and what would work best for my skin. The entire office staff is warm and welcoming. I will be back for sure!

Today I received the Red Carpet facial which includes dermaplaning and a diamond glow facial with a serum of choice with Alexa! She was very sweet and attentive!! I chose the Vitamin C serum and my skin feels smoother and is visibly brighter. Front desk staff was very welcoming as well. I will definitely be back!

I loved my visit with Dr. Desai. It is clear that she is very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. My consultation was very informative and she took the time to talk through my concerns and answer any questions I had. She was very professional and personable, and her staff (Tara) was as well. The office is beautiful and clean. Im excited to see the results of my treatment and look forward to my new skincare journey with Artavi.

Experience was great; a clean, stylish office with an informative and helpful staff (which I find rare in Houston, in any industry). Rather than take my money now for the fillers I had signed up for, Dr Desai advised me to consider a less costly treatment later for a better effect. Prices aren’t cheap but aren’t outrageous and your injector is an actual physician which is worth it to me. Botox was absolutely painless and bruise-less compared to my last Beauty Doc (pic is after 15 hours). It takes a week to take effect so I’ll have to re-review about the results to give 5 stars. I’ll definitely be back.

Colleen and the ladies at the front desk are wonderful. Colleen is knowledgeable, thorough and kind. She always makes me feel like a million bucks when I leave Artavi and the glow lasts a long time. Her technique with all her services is extremely patient geared to improve your complexion while you’re there and to advise you on what you can do once you’re home. She is never pushy but is always happy to help whenever I have any questions about my skin or any products. I would highly recommend Artavi to anyone!! Thank you Dr Desai for bringing this level of service to the Heights!!

Really nice lady. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. She wasn’t able to help me with dissolving my Bellafill in my lips (something I got done somewhere else) because apparently it’s a permanent filler. She said the only way to get rid of that kind of filler is with surgery. I was very disappointed to hear this but also very grateful for her honesty and assistance. I lost a lot of weight so my face-shape has caved in and therefore makes my lips look huge. My lips no longer match my face. She gave me wonderful recommendations with balancing and softening my face-shape. I signed up for the monthly membership with them so I can do the suggestions she made.

I promise you, you will not be disappointed!! This has been my best experience in a med spa ever. The service was so quick and on point. The Doctor was AHH-mazing. She was sweet, knowledgeable, and took her time to explain things to me. The office was beautiful and location was a new and upcoming bougie area! Idk if you can tell, but I loved my experience. Definitely 5 stars! And no… I am not an employee or family member. Lol

Review №18

My personal experience at Dr. Desai was great the first time. Dr.Desai, made me feel comfortable and at ease. She’s a good listener and understands your needs. However, today’s visit which was a follow up had me feeling uncomfortable. The receptionist that was helping me made me feel awkward about asking questions regarding lip fillers. She has to work on her customer skills while she is at work. She is nonchalant and did not make feel welcome. Sorry to say, I won’t be going back again.

Review №19

I’ve been seeing Dr. Desai at Artavi for 3 months now, and I’m extremely happy with my Botox, laser hair removal, and facial product recommendations. I initially chose Artavi, because I wanted the board-certified physician to be the one administering the injections, which Dr. Desai has done all of my Botox injections herself. For reference, other med-spas allow anyone with a Botox certification to give injections, whether or not they are a doctor. I really like the membership option. I pay $100 per month that stores in my account, and then when I come in for a treatment, the amount credits to my services. There’s also a points system, where you can additional discounts. The location in the Heights is just unbeatable - easy parking and so close for people who live inside the loop. I highly recommend Artavi for any first-time Botox-ers or other beauty medical services.

Review №21

Dr. Desai is great at explaining and making the patient feel comfortable. She communicates well and goes the extra mile to figure out and then explain what’s best for the patient. The pricing seems to be a bit murky and I’ve been surprised by final cost for both of my visits. The patient portal is also very repetitive for paperwork required per procedure. But those are my only complaints. Overall a good experience and I’ll be continuing to use Artavi for my aesthetic needs.

Review №23

Dr. Desai at Artavi is the first doctor I have been to for cosmetic injections, now I will never go anywhere else! She’s always so informative on the treatments and honest about what results to expect. Her results are some of the most natural I’ve ever seen. After my first visit 6 months ago I signed up for a membership, it’s such a great option if cost is a hindering factor for you.

Review №24

I’ve had IPL twice and my friends have commented that my skin is glowing. Colleen is incredible, she talked me though the procedure and let me know exactly what to expect before, during, and afterwards. It’s not a comfortable procedure, but Colleen is REALLY good at what she does and has a kind, gentle touch. Dr. Dasai did my Botox and the results are incredible. I highly recommend Artavi. You won’t be disappointed with the service or the results.

I just finished my first diamond glow facial at Artavi Med Spa and let me just say...it was wonderful! The staff is very kind and professional. Colleen was extremely knowledgeable about all things skin care! She recommended products that will help my skin in the long run without pushing any products. Really had a great experience and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a reasonably priced, quality med spa in the Heights/Houston area.

Dr. Desai and everyone at Artavi are absolutely fabulous. Dr. Desai is very thoughtful on her consultations and takes her time to ensure shes doing whats right for you and your skin. Im very happy with the results. In addition, while they have great products available, Dr. Desai doesnt try to push them on you like some places. She provides good guidance about products, regardless if theyre available at the spa or not. Just an overall great experience.

I really enjoyed my experience here. The front staff was very professional and welcoming, and the physician was super attentive to what I wanted. The staff did not try to upsell products or pressure into additional services. I had an appointment at the end of the day and did not feel rushed and the services were throughly explained. I would absolutely recommend!

Dr Desai and Colleen were great! I came here to get Laser Genesis done as this was something I was already getting from my regular dermatologist. Colleen was very thorough and explained the entire process and Dr. Desai was able to give me a few recommendations with skincare. Love how convenient this location is and that they have appointments available on the weekend. Plus, you can talk to a real dermatologist/ doctor. Their scheduling process was also really easy.

Review №36

I am so glad to have found Dr. Desai! I scheduled a consultation with her to discuss fillers (specifically to address my jowls.... thanks Dad) and I was surprised that we actually took the full 45min. I say surprised because it was a full 45 min appointment for just a consultation- she walked me through everything, addressing questions I hadnt even come up with yet, and overall made me feel very comfortable. I snagged her next filler appointment and it went easier than I had expected. I have been doing Botox for years but was very nervous about making the jump to fillers. She made the procedure a breeze and explained every step along the way. Its been a couple weeks now and I am very happy with the results! Your face is important dont trust just anyone with it; I promise you will be thankful you went with Dr. Desai!

Artavi is a gorgeous space which is completely reflective of how youll feel after leaving. I came in for Botox and Dr. Desai really took her time discussing where I wanted it and what I could expect the results to look like.I came back a couple of weeks later for a full consultation as Im getting married in about 7 months. She spent so much time with me addressing all of my concerns and didnt pressure me into any treatement at all. I did pick up a few skincare products that she recommended and I am noticing a huge difference after only a week.Cant say enough wonderful things about the Artavi staff and Dr. Desai!

I have been going to Artavi for almost a year now and cannot say enough good things about them! Dr. Desai is fantastic and very honest and knowledgeable. She does my Botox and keeps it natural and on point! Emily is professional, helpful, and always gives me pointers on what products to use. She does all of my facials. The membership option is awesome and a great deal and I look forward to going every month. My skin has really improved from having regular facials and better skin care products. They use skinceuticals which are very highly rated. There are so many other services that I want to try and look forward to continuing my membership!

My experience at Artavi was very seamless from booking till the very end! Lily, the aesthetician, made sure I was comfortable the entire time I was getting my dermal infusion.

Everyone at Artavi makes every visit so enjoyable. Gabi at the front desk is so sweet and helpful getting checked in and out and walking you through service options.Emily is my facial queen 👑 I walk out of there feeling not only so relaxed and beautiful but more knowledgeable about my own skin and skincare. It makes a huge difference to actually understand what my skin goals are and how to reach them. Emily deals with my 100 questions each time and my ever changing mind.Dr. Desai accomplishes my Botox goals in ONE visit. I’m two weeks out and LOVING my the way my results look.This entire team is getting me wedding ready and I can’t say enough about how much I recommend them!

Review №55

I had a great experience at Artavi! I would really like to see how my skin would be after a couple of treatments. Post dermal infusion, my skin was soft and refreshed. I have sensitive skin and very acne prone skin, so I was a little nervous. I did notice some new breakouts a couple of days after (which could be from anything honestly) but I would love to try the acne treatments that are offered by Artavi. I highly recommend this place! Great experience and definitely want to go back for more!

Review №80

Honestly never thought I would have visited a medspa before but I was recommended by a close friend. I must say I’m very impressed with the location and the appearance of the med pspa. But what made the experience even better was the professional mannerisms and confidence Dr Desai possesses. She goes above and beyond to make sure the treatments she recommends are needed and done appropriately. I had Botox done to eliminate wrinkles to the forehead and the results were amazing! Also had PRP injections done to treat my receding hairline and thus far can definitely see improvement. The most recent treatment I received was the trusculpt to eliminate belly fat I’m having difficulty getting rid of. This was definitely my favorite of all three treatments I had done. Have seen some results but as per Dr Desai will see best results in 12 weeks. All in all I can definitely say this med spa is one of the best places to get aesthetic treatment whether you are a woman or a man. Oh and I totally forgot that all these treatments are done by Dr Desai herself so you have confidence the treatments are done the way she explains it during your initial consultation.

Review №81

I did a lot of research before deciding on Artavi MedSpa. The injections are done by a medical doctor, which is a plus, as MDs are held to a higher standard.My first appointment was today and my observations are: At the front desk, I was greeted professionally and made to feel welcome. The office is immaculate, Dr. Desai took her time to learn my medical history and make sure there are no contradictions before the procedure. The Botox was given expertly. Aftercare was explained (no rubbing, stay upright for a couple of hours afterward, etc.) and she will call the next day to check in. I’ve had Botox years ago and never experienced this level of care. There was no pressure to add other services, but she did answer my questions about what was available.They do carry skin care products and offer an array of services but they didn’t try to upsell me or push their products - which I truly appreciated.All around excellent experience in a clean, professional, beautifully decorated facility. I came for just Botox but I will be back for other services in the future. Highly recommend Artavi MedSpa.

I had an absolute wonderful time at Dr. Desais place! The ambiance is gorgeous and inviting, everything is super new and clean. I went for botox consultation (prevention is key!) and ended up getting both botox and fillers (for my tear trough) because I felt so confident in Dr. Desais knowledge and technique. everything went well! Im satisfied with my result so far but looking forward to my f/up visit to see what else I can get done :) Highly recommend this place!

I have been wanting to get my tear troughs and lips done for awhile now, and Im so glad I went to Dr. Desai at Artavi Med Spa. It was a gorgeous space, her staff put me right at ease, and it was a really relaxing experience even though i was so nervous. Well, i didnt to be, as both procedures were completely painless and I LOOK AMAZING!!! I look 10 years younger and I have the lips I have always wanted - not overly plump so that people can tell, but just right! people keep asking me ive changed my makeup, and cant even tell I had fillers because of Dr. Desais artistry! Thank you, Dr. Desai! Cant wait to try the other services at your beautiful Med Spa!
