the L.A.B. aesthetic institute

This was my first visit. I'd been going to another med spa. I had my first consult with Sonya and was really impressed! Not only did we talk about what would be best for me, but she shared a lot of tips based on her vast knowledge, that I can implement, to make my current beauty regime work better.

Possibly one of the best trainings I have attended. Sonya and Shelby are two phenomenal trainers. As a new injector, I felt like she taught my group and I at a level that I understood but also at a level that an advanced trainer gained benefits from. Shelby, had immense knowledge of RHA product and had great advice on technique and placement. Sonya had a warm personality and is so patient and understanding. She made me feel comfortable while injecting and was very validating. The office staff are friendly and courteous. All and all, I give this experience a 20/10. I will be back for more!

I went to the Bishop Arts location on a lunch break and saw Shelby for a quick consultation and Dermaplane. I love how the suite is right around the corner (prime location for Bishop Arts/Oak Cliff). Shelby was amazing! We started off talking about long term goals and finished with a Dermaplane that left me feeling refreshed and glowing.

Shelby does an exceptional job with various procedures…her skill set is perfection. She attentively listens to your concerns/needs and executes with precision. The staff is helpful, caring about ensures you have an awesome experience. I’m a frequent client so I highly recommend going!

I had a wonderful experience at The LAB Medspa. Shelby and her assistant were both incredibly professional and compassionate throughout my treatment. They made me feel comfortable, informed, and genuinely cared for from start to finish. Shelby’s expertise and gentle approach really put me at ease, and her assistant was equally attentive and kind. I highly recommend The LAB Medspa to anyone looking for high-quality care in a welcoming and supportive environment.

I adore The L.A.B.. Would not dream of going anywhere else for my aesthetic needs. Sonya is a straight shooter and always has your best self in mind. Her clients mean so much to her and it’s obvious in 5 seconds after speaking with her. I have been told that I don’t look old enough to be a grandmother and I owe the compliment to Sonya and her staff! Thank you so much for taking a few years off, y’all are the BEST!!!!!

Shelby has been amazing in analyzing my face and making recommendations that are both subtle and effective. Everyone at LAB are so nice and never push a service or product that you don’t need. Highly recommend for all your functional medical and aesthetic needs.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Shelby at the L.A.B.! From the moment I met her, I knew I was in the best hands.

Sonya is a top notch educator! I appreciate her kindness and knowledge in technique and rheology. As a newer injector, she made me feel so comfortable and was able to explain things to me that was easy to understand. Thank you so much for your hospitality and knowledge. It was so worth traveling to train with her and her team! She did a great job to making us feel like we were apart of her team that day and she is also hilarious! You can really tell how passionate about her patients and the work she does. Shelby was also as amazing. She really inspires me with how knowledgeable she is. I love the dynamic her and Sonya have created together. They really share both perspectives on what works for them and it allowed me to feel like they cared about my learning without any bias. Shelby has a very calm demeanor that made me feel at ease with learning from her. Thank you so much to the LAB team and educators. It makes me excited to learn more from them in the future!

Their techniques, focus on safety, and attention to detail made the trip from St. Louis absolutely worthwhile! I left feeling confident and ready to apply what I learned.

Shelby has been doing my facial balancing over the past few months and I SWEAR she’s a witch. She completely transformed my face in the best way. Everything looks super cohesive, feminine, and I have never felt prettier. Go see her!

I’ve been going to LAB Med Spa for years, and every visit continues to exceed my expectations. The entire staff is truly 10/10—professional, welcoming, and always attentive. I see Natalie for my treatments, and I honestly can’t say enough about her. She is incredibly skilled, precise, and has an eye for natural, beautiful results. I just saw her today for a lip treatment and a quick touch-up, and once again, I’m blown away. Natalie is simply impeccable. I trust her completely. Her talent and consistency keep me coming back every time.

Sonya is the asthetics queen! I've seen her for over a decade, I won't have anyone else touch my face. She is so kind and knowledgeable, I trust her completely. Everyone in the office is so nice and welcoming. Chelle is amazing for all your laser needs(I do Halo & BBL every winter) as well as, weight management. Don't hesitate to make an appointment, you're worth it!
