My Honest Experience at Skin Institute Dermatology Centre, Abu Dhabi
This was my first time writing a bad review, but I had a genuinely disappointing experience. My friend and I booked an appointment for a chemical peel after seeing many good reviews. However, during the consultation, the doctor suggested many other treatments instead, which left us confused about what to start with.
When we told the reception we needed time to decide, we were pressured to do something immediately or else we’d be charged a fee. Because of that pressure, we said we will start with a HydraFacial. They then gave us an appointment 3 weeks later. When my friend called asking for an earlier slot, she was told nothing was available but later we found out there were earlier openings.
Two days before our appointment, they suddenly cancelled, saying the doctor was sick this happened just because we paid in advance. After we requested a refund due to all the confusion and poor treatment, suddenly an appointment became available again.
On the HydraFacial day, the experience was just as disappointing. I came straight from work with makeup on, and the aesthetician didn’t properly remove it just a quick cleanse and double cleanse. She used one cream, a machine for a few minutes, did some extraction, applied a serum and a mask, then left me there for over 25 minutes once I finished there was a makeup in my face. If this is what they consider a HydraFacial, I honestly don’t know what to say.
Overall, it was unprofessional, confusing, and far from the service I expected. I don’t recommend it based on my experience
