Village Skin Care (Meadowridge Park and Shop - Cape Town)

Dangerous misinformation and inferior products...all in the name of making money!

Very disappointed that the owner and manager herself recommended IPL for numerous times, amounting to hundreds of Rands wasted, on two dark spots on the bridge of my nose which she "diagnosed" as sun damage and said would break up and disappear with IPL, knowing full well that they were NOT what she said they were. A dermatologist luckily diagnosed them quickly enough to be caught in time: pre-cancerous spots! I had them frozen off and they did not come back. My dermatologist said she was furious at these so-called beauty salons that tricked clients into having useless procedures when the issues could hacel serious consequences without the proper treatment. Shocking....it's all about money for these posh, snooty places. Another bone of contention is the eyelash and eyebrow dye used - it was heavily diluted and the effect lasted less than a month ......now I buy German products from a health and beauty Store and my eyelashes and brows look and stay pitch black for three months! Will never recommend this place and have dissuaded friends from going there. Never again!
