Christine Ngwazini, NP | Aluma Medical Aesthetics

I got micro needling done for the first time today and I’m so glad I went to Christine! She was very patient and knowledgeable during our consultation as she explained the procedure, what to expect, and how to care for my skin afterwards. She answered all my questions and even made recommendations for how to achieve my skin goals for my upcoming wedding. Her passion for making her clients look and feel their best is exhibited by how thorough she is, her dedication to her craft, and her commitment to honoring natural beauty while improving overall confidence. As a woman of color, I can truly say I appreciate her inclusive approach to skincare and aesthetics. I’m looking forward to my next appointment!

Christine is truly the best! Her passion, energy and expertise makes her so easy to work with. She is so knowledgeable, caring and most importantly amazing at what she does. I am so incredibly thrilled with the outcomes. I consulted with a number of professionals but so grateful I landed with such a gem! Thank you Christine!

Christine is amazing!! I flew from out of state because I trust her work so much. I appreciate her candidness and approach to medical aesthetics - enhancing what you naturally have and not overdoing it. Will absolutely be returning for touchups! I first met Christine when I wanted to have my lips re-done after having them done by a provider in Seattle about 7 months prior. The provider in Seattle had botched my lips from over-filling and I went to Christine hoping she could fix them. She was honest with me, letting me know that the look I wanted to achieve could be done after my current filler was dissolved, because adding more would make it worse since my lips had already lost their shape from being overfilled. So, I had my filler dissolved, but I couldn't have it refilled on the same trip since I was only in San Diego for less than a week. I flew back about a year later and I am so happy I waited! Christine is an artist. She understands facial anatomy and where to place fillers in a way that compliments a person's face. She is also great at educating and explaining the process as well. I was so relaxed while sitting in the chair because 1) little to no pain and 2) I trusted her work that I knew it was going to turn out amazing. You will love how your fillers turn out if Christine does it for you!

Microneedling: I’ve never had serious issues with my skin, but it had been feeling oily and just “off”. I’d gotten a facial, hoping that would get things back to normal, but the result only lasted a couple of days. I’d seen Christine’s posts on social media about her own microneedling experience and I decided to give in a try with very little research. If I’m paying for a service, I hate to spend my own time trying to become an expert on it. Christine was extremely thorough in her explanation of the process and the expected results and they DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! I couldn’t be happier with my results! I have only had one session so far (she recommended at least 3) and I can’t wait to see the final results. Christine is extremely skilled and knowledge. 10/10, you won’t be disappointed!

Christine is awesome! She was so patient and helpful helping me figure out what I wanted. She didn’t push me to do more and gave me great advice. She knows her craft well and I LOVE my outcome. Highly recommend!
