My experiences with Glow Theory have been wonderful! From the moment I walk in, I always feel welcome and comfortable. The atmosphere is relaxing, and the staff are incredibly friendly and professional. Lisa is amazing! She takes the time to explain everything, answers all my questions, and makes sure I'm comfortable throughout each visit. You can tell she's passionate about what she does, and that makes all the difference. I'm so happy with my ongoing experiences and results. I'll definitely continue returning and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality care in a welcoming environment.

Matt at Glow Theory is a master sculptor. He has helped me transform areas where I was not seeing results after rigorous training and regular workouts. Everyone at glow theory is super nice and helpful. Very happy with my results so far!

Today is Disport day! Insiyah knew exactly what I needed done! I've very happy to put my face in her very capable hands. If you don't want to keep looking older you better come see Insiyah at Glow Theory, so she can put you on a regimen for life so that you're happy with how you look as you age. Of course we're going to age but there are some things you don't have to tolerate... so why look older when you don't have to? Sincerely, Renee

Insiyah has such a good eye for natural facial balancing. I’m 38 years old. I have received filler, botox and Laser. I’m always so impressed with her recommendations and how knowledgeable she is with new procedures. She is spot on and I never feel overdone. So much of what she recommends is preventative. I used to be so anxious with other injectors, but not her! I trust her inevitably and because of that, I’m so relaxed during my appointments. I absolutely love her and all the girls there! One million star review!
