La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic & Dermatology

I’ve been to so many dermatologists and gotten so many laser treatments, and Dr. Grushchak was hands-down, the best. Usually my laser treatments are so painful (I know, why do I do this to myself but the results are worth it), and Dr. Grushchak asked me to come in an hour early for extra numbing which helped so much! She was also super efficient with the laser, the procedure went so fast I hardly felt a thing. I also had a vein on my temple that had been bothering me for years. I’d asked every plastic surgeon, vascular surgeon, and dermatologist about it, and they said nothing could be done. I asked Dr Grushchak, and she lasered it, and it was literally gone 5 seconds later. I’ve had it for YEARS! And she handled it in seconds! ? Also highly recommend the post treatment PRP. It helped with the pain and speed up healing.? I’m really picky about my doctors and usually only see dermatologists in Korea because Asian skin is so particular, but I trust Dr Grushchak any day! Thank you so much!

I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Grushchak. She is highly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and immediately puts you at ease. What stood out most was how present and attentive she was throughout the appointment. She took the time to explain what she was doing as she went, which made me feel informed and comfortable every step of the way. I never felt rushed, and all of my questions were answered with care. Dr. Grushchak has an exceptional bedside manner—kind, approachable, and incredibly down-to-earth. In a specialty where it’s easy to feel intimidated or like just another appointment on the schedule, she makes you feel genuinely heard and cared for. She never comes across as pretentious or transactional, and her authentic, patient-centered approach is something I truly appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Grushchak to anyone looking for a dermatologist who is both highly skilled and genuinely invested in her patients.

I was referred to La jolla Laser Clinic by both my doctor and my facialist. I finally took the plunge and made an appointment with Dr. Mani. From the minute I walked in, I was greeted with a smile. The paperwork was pretty painless and I was seen right on time. The office is extremely organized and well run. Having had my own dental practice for 30 plus years, I know how hard it is to make such a seamless and positive experience for patients. Dr. Mani and her amazing team definitely have the customer service down to a science. Dr. Mani was so careful with my condition which is very difficult to treat. She didn't jump in and start going at my face. She took her time, consulted with peers and when I finally got my laser procedure done, I couldn't even believe the results. I have spent so much time and money on products for years to resolve my issue . Nothing has worked so far except the amazing result I got after just one treatment! I am so happy I can't stop staring at my skin! I highly recommend La Jolla Cosmetic Laser clinic and Dr. Mani's expertise.

I had such a great experience at La Jolla Laser Clinic & Dermatology ! I recently got lip filler done by Dr. Mani and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. She was so professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to make sure everything looked natural and balanced. My lips came out beautifully enhanced while still looking like me , exactly what I wanted. The entire staff was welcoming and made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked in. The clinic itself is clean, relaxing, and very professional. I’ve also been using their skincare products for acne and I’m genuinely impressed with the quality. My skin has been looking smoother, brighter, and healthier overall since incorporating them into my routine. You can tell they really care about both cosmetic results and long-term skin health. Highly recommend La Jolla Laser Clinic and Dr. Mani if you’re looking for natural-looking results and amazing care!

This review is only for Dr. Nasrin Mani. I went in for a consulation for sun spots and suspected melasma, as a 31 y/o female. I have done my research and I know my stuff. I only wanted a few small really dark spots addressed with IPL laser. She kept trying to sell me on $1.5 - 2K whole face treatments, which I kept telling her I did not want. I work at a surf camp, and am in the sun all the time, so staying out of the sun long-term isn't an option for me. I understand that with these treatments, you need to be out of the sun for weeks leading up to the treatment, and weeks after during recovery. I kept telling her this. I asked what would be the price for just this one spot under my eye that's really dark. She said we can't do one spot, and that I would have to buy the whole treatment. I said ok thank you for your time, I will think it over. She then told me "Look. I'll be honest with you, you look like you have dirt splashed all over your face." as I was leaving. This was over a year ago and it still makes me feel incredibly insecure and felt compelled to write this review. I'm sorry to the clinic, I'm sure everyone else doesn't deserve this review but I had to write this about Dr. Nasrin Mani. To add to this, I have since seen another facility, and they did IPL laser on my one dark spot I requested, for free, during a consultation - no payment, no questions asked. I ended up doing IPL on a few other spots with this other facility, with great results.
