The best facial I have had in new york city. Brilliant. 5/28/2009

i would like to start by saying that the awful review below "by bellagamba22" is fake and untruthful. this is clearly from a competing salon or a very sick and twisted person who is trying to bring another persons quality of work down. I know for a fact that zina is the most professional and best facialist I have ever come across and this would not occur in her salon. Pros: zina Cons: i have not found one problem with this salon more

PLEASE DO NOT GO, WORST EXPERIENCE EVER 5/20/2009

I made an appointment after reading the below reviews on Citysearch. Unfortunately, I firmly believe that the 5 star reviews are written by insiders - I cannot believe that the traumatic experience that I had was unique. Case in point - look at the poor grammar and similar praise used throughout the review. Pros: NONE. Cons: Extremely painful extractions, scarred skin, dishonest owner more

Best Facial in New York City! 10/5/2008

I found Aphrodite Skin Care through city search. I had extremely sensitive skin and breakouts. I have visited numerous dermatologiests but there were no results. After having facial with Zina, I immidiately felt the difference. She is a true skin expert. She combines regular facial and oxygen treatments with her twenty plus experience in the industry. Not only I got rid of my breakouts and blemishes, but my entire face has changed. Its simply flawless! more

Eyebrow Threading...the next best thing to perfection 7/21/2008

I have been getting my manicure done with Yafa but have recently tried threading my eyebrows with her. It is a little painful at first but the results are SPECTACULAR!! My eyebrows have never looked this good. The plus side is that with eyebrow threading the hair grows finer and takes longer to grow back than just waxing it off. It's reallly amazing..... I'm just upset I haven't found out about it earlier. Pros: Yafa the waxing, eyebrow threading, manicure lady Cons: none more

NO MORE CELLULITE!!! 5/22/2008

I have been struggling with embarrassing cellulite on my lower body for years; I have tried mesotherapy and endermologie in the past without results. Although, I was skeptical when my girlfriend recommended I try it again; I did. After, the first time I; I was convinced it might work because my muscles felt sore as if I had just gone to the gym (no bruising). Zina has her own unique technique of using the machine. I purchased a package of 15, I am on my 8th appointment and I barely have cellulite! more

best facials 5/22/2008

I completely agree with the commentary below!!! I have never rated anything on citysearch, but these facial truly deserve a recommendation. I have sensitive and somewhat problematic skin, therefore I get facial frequently. I have tried a lot of different places including; Glow Spa, Mario Badescu, Elizabeth Arden, Bliss, Mandarin Oriental and La Prairie at the Ritz-Carlton Spa. Unfortunately, decorations and atmosphere is the only thing that most of these places are good for. The ?benefits? of all these facials only last a few days at best. Aphrodite spa is not pretentious; its appearance is plain, clean, and comfortable. It prides itself on the amazing results of its clients have. NOTHING has ever helped my acne as much as the Oxygen Facials. Zina wonderful and knowledgeable. She makes some of creams herself, my friends and I swear by her acne cream. more

You Have to try Zina's Oxygen Facial, OMG!!! 5/13/2008

Oh My God, where do I begin! First of all I want to Thank Zina - you are awesome. I am so happy with the quality of your work and the complete transformation you have made with my skin. Zina you truly have a wonderful gift, your intuitive touch and knowledge of the skin and more importantly what you do with problem skin is absolute golden. I have been searching for a great facialist for some time now; I would say I have had at least 30 to 40 different estheticians over the years and Zina has the complete package. Pros: Zina, Her Knowledge and use of what works best, Evening Appts, On Time!!! Cons: I honestly can't see any area's that need improved! She's terriffic more

I tried out Aphrodite a few months ago after looking up spas totally blind on Citisearch. Wow, did I get lucky choosing Aphrodite!! Pros: Everything.... not a single complaint more

Joy 2/10/2008

I had read great reviews of this salon and was excited to try it. I made an appointment for a Saturday late afternoon, but when i arrived they told me they were unable to take me because they'd double-booked someone else. Not only did they fail to call me beforehand, they were extremely rude and unapologetic, after I'd trekked all the way from downtown to get there. I didn't bother to reschedule and don't intend to give my business to such an unprofessional and discourteous salon, no matter how well they are rated otherwise. Cons: Rude service, cancelled my appointment without notifying me more

Lovely Zina! 2/7/2008

This was my first time to Aphrodite. I have been to a million salons and I know what a good salon meant to be. I have finally found the one that is just right! I made an appointment with Zina for a facial and I am so glad I did. She is very confident and knowledgeable about skin care. My skin is very problematic I have a major impurity problem. Zina removed all of them with great care and patience for about two hours. She considers the skin type and then makes suggestions accordingly. Believe me, I am extremely picky when it comes to skin care and haircut. Make an appointment with Zina, I am pretty sure you will love her. She has a skin of a 20 year old (she is over 50!) When you saw her skin you would realize you are in good hands. Definitely, she is the BEST and I trust her. I would definitely come back again even tough I live 90 miles away! Pros: ZINA ZINA ZINA! Cons: none more

Best Results -Oxygen Facial EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 12/2/2007

I have been going to Zina now for the past six months and I have been absolutely thrilled and amazed with the results I have had. I have suffered with Acne for some time and have tried everything from medications to expensive lasers at the Dermatologists office but without any success. I came across Zina's reviews on City search and decided to give her a try. And that was the best thing that I did. Zina was so courteous and knowledgeable and knew just how to treat my sensitive and breakout prone skin. We started with the oxygen facial series and and I saw dramatic results in just one month of starting. One month!!! I have been going to dermatologists for years now and paying high end prices without seeing any results. I was so excited and blessed that I found Zina. I continued my oxygen facials for several months and noticed my skin became clearer, more even toned, hydrated and more firm every time. I have never had clear skin until now after the facials with Zina. I am completely hooked on to Zina and her facials that even though my breakouts have stopped now - I still continue to go back every month. Not only does she have very skillful hands but Zina is very pleasant , warm, and makes you feel very comfortable in your own skin. And Zina is on the cutting edge technology with the oxygen facials. She is the best thing that ever happened to me. And the spa is very clean, warm and cozy. I will always remain loyal to Zina and I am so glad that I found her. If you are like me and have serious skin concerns, please don't think twice- come and try out a facial with Zina and I promise you that you will be simply amazed with the results. Zina- you are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pros: Amazing Services- especially Facials with results,plesant and professional Cons: NONE more

Nowhere else but at Zina's 8/16/2007

I have rosacea, so my facial treatments are as easy to find as a good man in this city. I went to a number of high class spas and every time they did a facial my face would get much worse. That stopped when i got introduced to Zina. She convinced me let her try to do facials and deep extractions before beginning treatment, and you know what? - she was absolutely right! after a few sessions my breakouts, which were severe on my jaw line, went away and not i do oxygen and ipl treatments to combat the redness. I get compliments on my radiant and young looking skin, and i am 33! Most people think i am in my early to mid-20s. So i have to say thank you to Zina, she is the only one i trust. I also do endermology there, which is great. I am forever loyal to Zina. Pros: Qualifications, Skill, Enthusiasm, Latest technology Cons: None more

A+ Facial - great atmosphere 8/4/2007

I generally do not write reviews but this was a must. I have been trying to find a place like this for a while. I found it on citysearch a couple of weeks ago and gave it a shot. Let me just say that it is not just a facial treatment that I received, it was the whole experience. The aesthetician name is Zina (I guess everyone knows this from the reviews) and she does her job with great pride. She examined my face first and gave me recommendations on facial treatments. All the technology that she is using is top of the line (she goes in detail and explains each procedure). She tries to make customers so comfortable that when she was done I almost told her that I wanted another session right away. Pros: Great service, good value, personal attention Cons: Should have more locations more

Why go anywhere else? 8/3/2007

Being new to the area I had reservations on where to go for endermologie, and exactly how the process worked. After doing my own research I stumbled on Aphrodite and decided to check it out. During my first visit Zina was nothing but cordial and upbeat. She explained everything in detail and I felt very comfortable and at ease. Not only has Zina been doing my endermologie for quite some time, she began doing my facials...that's how much I trust her. The reason why I continue to go to Zina and give Aphrodite my business is the place is extremely clean, and Zina has always been caring, curteous, and honest. I travel for work and have visited many spas around the US, even if I decide to move out of the area I will continue to work with Zina. She's the best! more
