"I had an amazing experience with Dr. Balgobin! He and his staff are so knowledgeable, kind, and make you feel so comfortable during any procedure! Lucky for me, I made friends with a couple of his other patients before hand so I knew I was going to be in great hands! I will be back for more services!!! Cannot wait to try skin tightening!!!"
"I always look forward to my treatments! Alexis gives amazing facials and Dani is an expert at injections and fillers. And their staff is very helpful and courteous with bookings, payments, and helping you learn more about your treatments."
"I won’t go anywhere else - so lucky to have this doctor and team - I absolutely love this place! I have been going here since 2019 and haven’t ventured anywhere since. From the moment I walk in, Libby or Melissa are so welcoming along with Chris the office manager. I have been in for Botox, filler, and 360 lipo with BBL. Dr Balgobin is the master of what he does. I feel so fortunate to actually be local to someone that really cares and enjoys what he does. Always adding the latest procedures and the first in the country for permanent booty filler. My friend just had it done and loves it! She also had lipo and no BBL and the ab etching on her is so hot! I’m so happy to have introduced many people here. When it comes to the walk through on procedure, Aftercare and overall experience with the surgery of lipo/bbl I felt in very good hands. Highly recommend Arijai! They have definitely help turned back the time clock for me and I feel so confident. Also I must add the facials, skin pen and ZO skin care are a must."
"Dr. Balgobin did his thing with this body - I was so afraid to do this! I've always wanted to especially after my 2nd child. This was the best decision I made! Dr. Balgobin did his thing with this body! I'm so serious. I look great! His staff were extremely professional and so welcoming, my consultation and everything went smoothly. He's so wonderful and kind. I had no issues whatsoever besides the pain after surgery. He was completely honest about the procedure that I really needed which was a tummy tuck but decided on lipo 360, jplasma skin tightening and bbl. Im 6 weeks post op now and still can't believe the skin on my stomach retracted the way it did. I'm still healing as far as scaring but WOW! THANK YOU SO MUCH DR. B!!"
"Liposuction, BBL and J-Plasma - Dr. Balgobin is simply the G.O.A.T , hands down. He is a real life Superhero. I chose Dr. Balgobin , after following his work for years. I had Liposuction, BBL and J-Plasma skin tightening to the abdomen. I trusted he would do an amazing job and I was not disappointed. I’m only one month post op , I look and feel amazing, I couldn’t be happier!! You only get one chance of getting your surgery and results right! Dr. Balgobin is beyond the best!!"
"Nicole is the go-to for injectables! Since finding her and Arijai I wouldn't go anywhere else. She fixed filler that were done at a different place and gave me amazing results with other facial fillers. You can tell the expertise and care by the amount of time and precision she takes to make sure the best results. The membership program is a great way to save, but they are worth every penny."
"Nicole did a great job with my facial fillers! I did extensive research for months prior and already had an idea what would be best for me beforehand. My goal was to add volume to hollow tear troughs and minimize appearance of dark circles. When I went to my consultation, Nicole recommended exactly what I already had in mind! I knew then I could trust her with my face. She’s very honest, gentle and comforting. I highly recommend her. My treatments: Voluma to structure cheekbone and Restylane L for my tear trough filler. 25 units of Botox in forehead for frown lines."
"Found Arijai Aesthetic though Instagram page under dr.bbl from a friend. Watching Dr.Bagobin for three and half years or so. I finally booked my appointment for Feb 3 . Right after my Son’s 1st Birthday & I turned 41. I did a Lipo 360 +arms & BBl with Recovery house + Jplasma skin tightening technique. But I had to qualify first with blood test & Dr history. So they know your healthy before surgery and I did . I was traveling from California. Got picked up by care taker Tamika (who your going to love) from airport in a very nice Mercedes SUV on the second of February. Went straight to recovery house. Witch is a 6 bedroom 5000sq house . That is well taken care of . Sanitation at its highest. My room was spacious and comfortable. Had a welcoming chocolate and folder on my pillow, right when I walked in. Folder had information on my next steps before surgery day . Witch was the next Day . Also had supporting words of comfort . Everything is very well thought out. Caring for your wellbeing and not just your pockets. I never felt like a number . I can’t tell you how nice everyone was in the office the next day. Prepping for surgery was a breeze. Meeting Dr.B was amazing. You can sense the genuineness and the passion he has for his work. You just know you in good hands. They make sure your mentally ready , witch I was . Very much so. Waking up after surgery feeling some pain but that’s to be expected. You just had major surgery duh . My nurse Edna helped me with my meds & though the next 5 days of my healing. She’s God sent and a beautiful soul . Listen to hear and trust your in good hands . You can feel the love in her care , conversation & cooking . Having other ladies in the house with me really helped mentally get though the days . We laughed together and gave Supporting words of encouragement. It was truly a life changing experience in so many ways then one."
"Don’t Go Anywhere else - I had been going to Dr. Balgobin for roughly a year for Botox and Filler but initially was drawn to his practice from seeing his Lipo and BBL on social media. I was in awe to be honest on the transformations he does! Like damn! I never thought that was possible! I reached out to him and he directed me to where his office was, I had gone elsewhere for Botox prior but I was just so impressed with their work I had to check it out. So first I tried the Botox and filler like I mentioned, his esthetician is amazing, I have brought all my friends to her as well. She also suggested this anti aging face regiment called Zo Skin Health by Zein Obagi. I’m on my third kit (comes in a pack with 5 products) and it makes my skin look and feel like I’m glowing. Finally after a year of going to his practice I finally pulled the trigger and scheduled my Lipo 360 and BBL. From the beginning when scheduling I was given so much information on what to expect, what to do before and after and they even offer a Recovery House for a very good price. If I wasn’t local and lived 20 minutes away I would have for sure done it. I was called a week before the surgery to be consulted again, what to do, what to expect/prepare, and after care information. Throughout the whole journey they were right there with me to answer any questions I had, which I didn’t have too many because they already answered most of them. I can’t really think of any cons.... Numerous girlfriends of mine have had the same surgeries by other Dr.’s, with no after care instructions, no recommendations on lymphatic massages or garments to wear following surgery, nothing!!! I feel bad even telling them how well I was taken care of because they payed good prices but had botched jobs. Dr. B does everything right and would not go or recommend anyone to go anywhere else. They are actually considering redoing theirs just to go to him and get it done right. My results are simply amazing it’s brought happy tears to my eyes and I’m only a little over a week post opp. I have felt this way since the day out the door. It’s everything I’d hoped it would be! And it’s only going going to get better! Looking forward to enjoying this for the long term."
"Scheduled my appointment with Dr BBL - I scheduled my appointment with Dr Balgobin on May 27th. I am super excited. I will be doing the 5 night stay in the recovery house. Current weight 184. Height 5'4. Between now and then I am trying to lose as much weight as I can just so the skin tightening will look better. I am going for lipo 360 bbl and skin tightening.Updated on 19 May 2020:My procedure is in 7 days, Wednesday May 27th. I am required to test for covid 48 hours before my appointment but I was unable to schedule Monday due to it being a holiday. The clinic is closed on the weekend so I will be doing my covid test Friday. Super nervous!Updated on 20 Jul 2020:I am 8 weeks post op and love my results so far. I stayed in the recovery house and I am so glad I made the decision to stay there. Tamika is AWESOME. my curves are poppin, my booty is poppin. My stomach needs some more work but dr B did let me know ahead of time that I would probably need a TT or round 2. He really did his thing though! I’m impressed. He is such a kind person he made me feel super comfortable. "
"Amazing Experience! - Dr. Balgobin and his staff are the most informative people that I have come in contact with. The facility is gorgeous, clean. Up to date on all the new products, facial treatments one could want. My skin has gone from dull to glowing after my treatments. Way to go team!"
"BBL with lipo 360 and J plasma skin tightening - YESSS Ladies!!!! - I cannot express enough gratitude and thanks to Dr. Balgobin and his staff for the amazing care I received. Dr. B is extremely knowledgeable and took care to make sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process, from consult, preparation, surgery, to after care. He and his staff were (and still are) always available to answer any questions or concerns I might have about the procedure. After the care I received, I can truly say I never would have done things any other way. I chose to stay at the recovery house (Tamika was a god send) where I was completely taken care of after surgery. I am now 5 months post op and still cannot believe how amazing my results are as they continue to improve (both because of the decreased swelling and J plasma skin tightening). I had consulted with other physicians who suggested a tummy tuck, but I wasn’t willing to do this. J plasma is definitely an add on I would recommend ladies!!!! I completely and utterly recommend Dr Balgobin and his team."
"I have not had any of the invasive surgical procedures so I cannot speak to that but I love going to Andrea for my laser hair removal treatments and have had two facials with skin pen and UV light treatment. Andrea is so calming and kind, it is such a relaxing visit and skin feels great after. I personally didn't do well with the skin care line but my face is pretty picky when it comes to skin care products. It's also unfortunate that the skincare line doesn't count toward Brilliant Distinction points but it did feel amazing, smelled great and wasn't too expensive. My skin just didn't agree with it. I go to Cindy for my Botox and while I usually get discounts working in healthcare, I like her so much, I'd pay the extra. She gives touch ups after 2 weeks for free if you aren't pleased with anything. She is very knowledgeable about the anatomy of the face and physiology behind the work she does. It's reassuring having an actual nurse doing the treatments knowing she has education and specialized training in her specialty. Cindy and Andrea are both a delight to chat with during my treatments. I even received Botox from Dr. BBL himself. He was so down to earth and not like most plastic surgeons I've dealt with in the past. He was just your average, normal guy and I felt he was genuine. I gave 4/5 stars only because the reception staff has some ways to go and I'm not a huge fan of the skin care line. The ambience and decor of the place is trendy yet comfortable and clean. I never have a hard time scheduling with my crazy schedule. I've been going here for several months and have no plans to go elsewhere anytime soon."
"I'm going to start off with this I have never had anything done at Arijai before BUT I came to the Arjai Aesthetics and Wellness Beauty Bash 2018 MY REVIEW IS BASED ON THE 10 PATIENTS I spoke with as well as the reps and doctor. Coming into the Beauty Bash you can already tell Arijai Aesthetics and Wellness have a well known presence in the Twin Cities community. I arrived 15mins after the event started and the place was packed with old patients, new patients and soon to be future patients. With skin care demos going on and the buzz of everyone excited to see the great services Arijai has to offer. It's hard not to get excited.This office offers surgical and non-surgical cosmetic services with Dr. Chris Balgobin- ·He is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery ·Fellow of Board Certification in Anti-aging & Rejuvenation Medicine. ·Licensed in 3 states- Minnesota, Florida and California·Has worked closely with Dr. Miami for the past 3 years. At Arijai they really try to treat their patients with a personal approach not making them feel like they are just a number and from the testimonials I received from patients it definitely shows that they are doing something right at Arijai. I heard stories of transformation in confidence to how much the patients absolutely love the staff and the procedures they have had done. What is really nice is that they are able to do surgical procedures right there in office. Arijai Aesthetics and Wellness is an Accredited Surgical Facilty they do procedures such as liposuction to fat transfers. They have a staff of licensed nurses & LPN's for when you are finished with your procedure. The aesthetics side is wonderful too. I spoke with a representative from SkinPen her name was Haley she was able to give me some great information about the SkinPen which is a microneedling device for acne scars or discoloration. I also met Andrea who was so sweet and told me all about Salt Facial which is a skin renewal treatment that is a alternative to peels- it's less abrasive. I was able to see what kind of damage I have done to my skin with SkinCeuticals. The rep was able to tell me and recommend what would be a great fit for my skin and the best part is that I was able to see everything she saw and know what she was talking about while she was looking at my skin. All the staff is very knowledgeable about all the products and services that is offered. If I ever need aesthetics done I know where to look now!"
"I had laser hair removal done last week. This place is friendly, clean, professional. I was very happy with the results. The environment is very inviting. The staff had exceptional customer service. I like the fact that they take appointments on Saturday, for women with a busy work schedule. I would recommend Dr.Chris Balgobin and his spa to anyone I know."
