Client Reviews

“I had never considered doing any skin treatments before, but my wife had been using Sarah R. for a while and I was honestly quite impressed by how some of the results looked. Getting into my mid 40s, I figured it was worth a shot. Sarah made me feel at comfortable and at home, knew exactly what she was talking about without being pushy, sales-y, or verbose. Like goldilocks, she was juuust right. I’ve been going for a few months now and it’s time to leave a review. I love how she got rid of sunspots, ‘volcanos’ and some of the broken veins that were starting to appear around my nose. I’m not sure how prices compare, but it’s very much within reach. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“I started going to ABD about eight years ago after a suggestion from a friend who had great skin. The difference that they have made in my skin is amazing. They have de-aged my skin by like 10 years (even and glowing tone, smaller pores, fewer breakouts, et cetera). People tell me I look ‘so happy and relaxed’ and the only thing that’s changed is ABD! Sarah is so knowledgeable and experienced...

Until I discovered ABD, I was pretty clueless on skincare and products—I browsed the drugstore, malls, and the internet randomly. Do I buy this expensive moisturizer? Is this eye cream worth it? Do I really need vitamin C/AHA/insert-trendy-product. I didn’t know what I needed and ended up with an expensive and ineffective hodgepodge. Now, I visit the professionals ABD a few times a year for skincare services, use their recommended simple skincare routine using a few excellent products, and the difference is very visible.

I realized, skincare is a professional service so why was I trying to figure it out myself? And cost-wise, it’s pretty much the same as when I was buying/doing all that random stuff, except now it works! It’s so easy to get confused by all of the skincare noise and marketing that’s out there. Entrust your skin to the professionals at ABD and everyone will notice.”

“I have been a client of Aesthetics by Design’s Paramedical Aesthetician, Sarah Rutherford, for 6+ years and I have never had someone care about my skin as much as she does. Sarah takes her time asking questions, evaluating your skin and providing exceptional advise and services. My skin is clearer and vibrant because of the services provided and the products she recommends. She is extremely knowledgable and thorough. I have recommended Sarah to many friends, and will continue to do so, because of the wonderful experience I have when I see her.

I won’t go anywhere else because I know I am in good hands with Sarah and Aesthetics by Design.”

“Love the place, the atmosphere, cleanliness, and Sarah is Awesome!! She’s very detailed, listens to what you want to accomplish/achieve with your skin/face, and gives recommendations. Sarah is a great, professional aesthetician and a very nice, friendly, smiling lady overall. Love getting pampered by Sarah :) Highly recommend this place and Sarah!!”

“Sarah is absolutely wonderful! She listens, answers questions regarding the treatments and generally cares about her clients. I am so thankful to have found her for my facial treatments!”

“My experience with Sarah Rutherford was beyond outstanding! What a knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, esthetician, who is an expert in CO2 laser treatments. I had a CO2 laser treatment to the face and neck 16 days ago. Prior to the treatment, I appreciated her thorough explanation of the procedure and what to expect afterward. She explained the care routine that I would be doing afterward, and all the products I needed to do this routine were given to me at the conclusion of the procedure and the products were included in the quoted price. Sarah was spot on with the information and instruction she gave me.

Following the procedure, Sarah asked me to check in with her daily, via text, for a week, which was really helpful because I had questions along the way and this daily check-in allowed me an opportunity to ask her my questions without feeling like I was intruding on her personal time.

If you want to have facial services of any kind done, and especially if you are considering a CO2 laser treatment, I would highly recommend Sarah. She truly is outstanding in her field. She trains physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and paramedical estheticians, on a national level, how to use Lumenis’ CO2 laser. That is pretty impressive to me and it tells me she knows what she is doing!

I was told that it will be 2-3 months before I see the total results of the CO2 laser treatment, but just 16 days in to this process I can already see improvement in my face with diminution of the deep and fine lines in my face.

Sarah, I’m grateful to you for your knowledge and care!! Thank-you, thank-you!”

“The docs and staff are wonderful. A standout is Ashley Zhivotosky. We had a consultation with Dr K. who spent a lot of time giving us options and answering all the questions we had. My granddaughter is getting a procedure, she’s 17, and typically is a little uncomfortable with doctors and dentists. Ashley was patient, kind, and understanding regarding my granddaughters issues. I greatly appreciate it the respect and warmth she showed her. Overall it was a very good experience.”

“Aesthetics by Design is a well-run practice under Dr. Mario Imola, and Aesthetician Sarah Rutherford is great to work with. Friendly and knowledgeable, Sarah is my point person for microneedling and chemical peels, and always makes me feel valued as a client.”

“Sarah R. is amazing. My skin is so appreciative of her expertise, her kindness, and her skill. She offers quality and much needed talent for my aging sun damaged skin. Thank you Sarah!”

“I have been going to Asthetic By Design for almost a decade. Sarah has taken such good care of me both physically and emotionally. She makes you feel comfortable through the compassion she shows and her professionalism. She talks to you in great detail about the procedures you are interested in and you will be experiencing. I trust Sarah completely and know that I am in very good hands when I go for my treatments. Asthetic By Design is an office where you are treated like family. From Paxton at the front desk to the rest of the lovely professionals you will encounter, you feel good immediately when you walk through the door. It is clean and comfortable and when you walk out you feel so much better than you did when you walked in. Thank you to Asthetic By Design and to my dear Sarah.”

“I had a broken blood vessel on my face. My dermatologist wanted an exorbitant amount of money to fix it. I decided to try aesthetics by design and was very pleased by the results and the price. Everybody was extremely nice and professional in the facility was top notch. I would return for any ther cosmetic or skin problems.”

“I got my first hydrafacial with Lisa and it was beyond amazing. My skin feels so soft and hydrated. Will definitely be going back to see her. She was so kind and informative. Loved everything about my visit.”

“Everyone at Aesthetics by Design is very friendly and professional. I always see Sarah for my facials she is awesome, so down to earth and very knowledgeable. She provides the best feedback and product suggestions that will help my skin feel and look better. Sheri is very nice and also gives suggestions to get the results you want without making you feel pressured or uncomfortable. I have recommended Aesthetics by Design to family and friends and they are also very pleased.”

“I have been using their services for many years. I find them to be extremely considerate, helpful, kind and they provide a high level of skill and customer service. I don’t EVER go anywhere else for facials, products, or injections.”

“Lisa is the best! Professional, caring and very knowledgeable. I have been going for about 3 years and will continue!”

“As my first time getting injections, I have to say the entire staff was (and is) so warm and inviting that I was barely nervous at all. I felt so cared for in the most gentlest way, which put my fears to rest as a new client start her new skin care journey. I’m excited on this new path of my life and will bring in my 27-year old daughter to start her healthy skin care journey as well. I can say enough about this outstanding group, other than, it’s a place you can trust and really feel good about yourself! I’m so looking forward to my facials, injections, and more with these incredible ladies. Thank you! ”

“This was my first time there. Staff was friendly, and the office was clean. I like that there seems to be a lot of services offered and that the staff seems to be knowledgeable of minority skin”

“I have been going to Sarah Rutherford for facials for many years and she is, quite simply, the best! She knows my skin better than I do, choosing appropriate treatments when I go to see her each month (even while pregnant!), and helping me to choose the best products to care for my skin in between visits. My skin looks the best it has ever looked, which I fully attribute to Sarah’s in-depth knowledge. She is worth the time and money!”

“I highly recommend Aesthetics by Design. They explain everything in detail, do not push you to purchase anything, answer all questions and make you feel welcome and relaxed!”

“I received services for acne scars. They are clear about the price, and the service was thorough.”
