Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had a variety of services here and every experience has been exceptional. Laser services from Jose—who is an absolute professional—were done with precision and care. I’ve enjoyed microneedling and facials from Tiffany that were both effective and incredibly pampering. Jennifer’s sugaring services are thorough and gentle. The entire staff is detailed, professional, and consistent in the quality of their work. They’re also impressively organized and responsive, making scheduling and communication effortless. The space is exceptionally clean and welcoming, and I always feel my needs are handled with meticulous attention. I leave every appointment confident, comfortable, and well cared for. Highly recommend!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kristin was amazing! The best in the business!

Jose did an amazing job and was so good at explaining everything:)Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jen is the absolute best! She’s super knowledgeable, totally professional, and hands down the funniest esthetician I’ve ever met. Every product she’s recommended has been a game-changer for my skin. And when it comes to sugaring? She’s a wizard—seriously the most painless sugarist I’ve ever been to. If you need hair removal, stop searching—Jen’s your girl! Can’t recommend her enough!”Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing group of individuals - just had a chemical peel and boys - feel great!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I only have amazing things to share about Jose. His care as a RN is fantastic. He practices with empathy, gentleness and knowledge. I came to Jose seeking relief from chronic pain. He recommended a treatment plan of glutothiane shots. The series of shots plan have greatly relieved my pain and accelerated my healing. Jose has an easy way about him. He explains and answers all questions. He reassured me that healing will take time. He has been able to tweak and customize my care to maximize progress. Jose’s loving and gentle demeanor combined with his knowledge and ability to explain is the hallmark of his care. Jose is a healer first and foremost. His knowledge is deep and he integrates mind-body-spirit philosophy for sustained healing. I highly recommend Jose! I feel confident that anyone would benefit from his care. The entire team at Blu provide exceptional care.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jose Jen and Tiffany are some of the best people I've met, it makes me really look forward to Coming here not just for the many services I can do but to see them and catch their amazing vibes. This is a one stop shop and a whole lifestyle. I always find new beauty products to buy as well whenever I come in. I visit this place weekly!!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started coming to Blu Monarch for men’s treatment. What I didn’t expect was the elite level of professional service and care I receive on a regular basis. I have come in with some challenging skin issues and Tiffany, Jen and Jose work together to ensure I am getting the best care which meant discontinuing, or altering, some services. It was refreshing to know they are more committed to my health and well being than selling services. The Team at Blu Monarch is the Best!!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Outstanding, Professional, clean as a whistle and lovely atmosphere! You are missing out if you don’t use Tiffany,Jenn and Jose! I am a PIA RN critical care nurse of 40 years and very picky where i hang my money for services rendered! This place is run by the beautiful and talented Tiffany and she is a diamond in the rough. She is so professional, kind, humorous and knows her skin products and how to deal with clients. Her team of players in the professional team is Jenn who is a gem: professional, educated , has a sense of humor and is able to pick up on people’s silent clues of anxiety during treatments. Jose is beyond professional and an RN plus a Marine and highly educated yet kind and compassion to clients. He is a great listener and has a sense of humor during the lazor or other skin treatments! This is a place that runs smoothly and the place is a team approach which is totally perfect! So run to sign up for treatments and you won’t be disappointed! Plus they have delicious candy treats ! 💐

Still Have Doubts? Let’s Clear Them Up.
Is microneedling painful?
Most clients compare the sensation to light sandpaper. We apply a medical-grade numbing cream to keep you comfortable. Post-treatment, expect mild redness, like a light sunburn, that fades within 24–48 hours.
What’s the downtime?
Very little. You may experience temporary redness, slight swelling, or dryness, usually resolving within 1–3 days. Avoid makeup and sun exposure for at least 24 hours to maximize results.
How soon will I see results?
Most clients start noticing changes in just a few days, like smoother texture and a healthier glow. Firmer skin and reduced acne scars typically appear over the next few weeks as your body’s repair system kicks in. And because we’re working with your biology, the results build naturally over time.
Is microneedling safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Microneedling avoids heat-based damage common in other treatments, reducing risk of pigment changes in darker or sensitive skin types.
How is this different from dermarolling at home?
DIY rollers have shorter needles and can risk uneven results or infection. Professional microneedling uses medical-grade tools and sterilized serums to inject precision without compromising safety.
What about side effects or risks?
Temporary redness, swelling, or mild irritation is normal and short-lived. Serious risks like infection or hyperpigmentation are very rare when performed by licensed professionals who follow strict safety standards.
Who should not get microneedling?
If you’re currently using retinoids, have active cystic acne, eczema, or are on certain medications (like isotretinoin), it’s best to wait until cleared. Your esthetician will determine suitability during your consultation.
Stop Covering. Start Fixing.
Smooth scars. Brighten tone. Tighten skin. Powered by your body’s own repair system, not injections.
