Clearwaves

I knew I needed to leave a review as soon as I left ClearWaves. The staff is INCREDIBLE and so kind and friendly and genuinely want to help you. I was given tons of information and checked on lots during the process as laser tattoo removal isn't the most painless thing in the world. You could really tell the staff here want nothing more than to make you happy, and I'm amazed with how well my first session went! I'll absolutely be recommending them to everyone.

Long, painful process, but we are getting there! Very grateful to Dr. Chavez and her amazing team for customizing my treatments to get me the best results. Still months to go, but someday I will be free of these stupid tattoos. If you are considering tattoo removal, I highly recommend! Dr. Chavez is a real MD. This is not some med spa!

I've been doing cool sculpting here at ClearWaves and I cannot say enough about Dr Chavez and her amazing staff. As one reviewer noted, this is NOT a med spa; it's a medical practice and you are assured the most professional treatment and results which, yes, may cost a little more, but you are assured of the best treatment and follow-up which is priceless.I am achieving the results I had hoped for. There's no woo-woo here; it's factual and laid out for you piece by piece so when you enter a treatment room you know you are in the most knowledgable hands. They know their job, they make you comfortable, they check in on you continuously throughout the treatment and, in my case, offer the perk of a mini post-treatment that spurs results. They are there to make you succeed in your goals.I travel 2-1/2 hours to the office and it's worth every minute on the road. I know I am going to be greeted and treated by the best staff EVER, in a wonderful space made more comfy with complimentary bottled water, coffee and tea, and small treats. The entire space--office and treatment rooms--is immaculate.For any cosmetic procedure they cover, I would go no where else and I encourage you to do so, as well.

Great experience! I had my eyebrows tattooed with permanent cosmetics years ago. I wanted to switch to microblading instead, which I think looks more natural. Clearwaves removed my old eyebrow ink beautifully and carefully. They were professional, friendly and reasonably priced. I'd highly recommend them. Can't wait to go get my microblading done now!

Years ago I started getting treatments here. The results are night and day. the laser treatments work on acne, scars, and oily skin. It was a no brainier when my daughter started to suffer.Totally worth every penny! The results are perfect. My daughters self confidence has improved and her skin looks beautiful. You would never guess from the results how bad her acne was and how much it improved, 100% improvement, and we have even seen her scars lighten and disappear. She does not have the oiliness she had, it is just amazing. I would recommend anyone who suffers with oily skin or acne to invest in the laser treatment, you will not regret it.

My son was treated at ClearWaves in 2006 for severe acne. It was amazing. I believe it took 4 or 6 treatments. He has rarely had even a single pimple in the years since. His skin is very nice looking, he does have some scaring but even the scaring was minimizby the treatments. My daughter may have a tattoo removed and if she does she will probably go here.On the other hand, I got a quote to remove some cherry angiomas. I then got a quote from my dermatologist. Using the same laser. Clearwaves said it would take at least 4 treatments and was 6x the cost of my dermatologist. I'd also recommend the topical anesthetic for any work you have done. It's an extra charge but well worth it. Really numbs the pain. It's not horribly painful but when they are zapping you 50-100 times in a small area it does sting a lot.

I've reviewed this place before, but somehow my review got deleted??I was seen here a few years ago for acne/acne scarring. I had 6 regenlite lasers, which the doctor should have not allowed me to get since they knew it would not yield any results. I was also on retin-A, which apparently inactivates the laser. Retin A was not on the list of medications to avoid, but I am not a medical professional and like others, may not know what an "anti-inflammatory" is. But anyway, I'm on my journey again to restore my skin and what I've heard from other places is that clearwaves is way overpriced. Their erbium laser is like 2k for the full face, where at others it's only 950 for the same. I rely on reviews to guide my purchasing decisions and wanted others to be warned that they need to be careful and almost know as much about the treatment as the facility does so you know if its going to work on you.

I've had a great experience here removing my tattoos! I'm working on removing a back and hip tattoo. My back tattoo is almost completely gone (I decided to stop treating it because you can't even tell it is there unless you know exactly where to look for it). My hip tattoo needs a few treatments still, but Dr. Chavez was very upfront with how results work at my first appointment, so I knew what to expect. As far as staff goes, Dr. Chavez is wonderful and caring and will answer all of your questions! Staff is good about checking on you and getting the laser done quickly. Office is clean, comfortable, and they offer water and chocolate, so that's important to know.

Friendly professional service! I am so glad I came here for my tattoo removal. They gave me all the information I needed and were quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. The office is very clean and comfortable and staff is wonderful ! I definitely recommend Clearwaves!

I was in Albuquerque for business and went into Clearwaves to try Zerona as a friend was raving about it. After speaking with Dr Chavez about all the options, I tried Vasershape. It worked so well and the experience with the staff was so great that when I returned to DC I sought out a local place and scheduled appointments. Totally different experience, more expensive, extremely uncomfortable and yield little to zero results. They said try Vanquish, so more money, not uncomfortable, no results. When I was in Albuquerque again, I revisited Clearwaves. Awesome results again and everyone was concerned for my comfort given the unpleasant DC experience.What can I say other than I now travel to Albuquerque for Vasershape, cool sculpting, and Vanquish. The knowledge Dr Chavez and her staff display is awesome. They are constantly researching, training, and staying up to speed with the latest and greatest technologies. The professionalism and client care is phenomenal; they are kind, caring, and truly interested in getting the best results for each individual.And the best yet, Dr Chavez personally answers emails and phone calls to answer questions and ensure you are fully informed and know the pros and the cons. Her prices are great too!!!Seriously, I now travel from DC, a major metropolitan area with lots of options when it comes to these types of services, to go to Clearwaves. They are that great!
