recently completed a series of facial treatments and couldn’t be happier with the results. I was looking for a safe, cleaner alternative to Botox, and my first experience was with Xeomin. The result was subtle and natural—no frozen look—just a relaxed, refreshed appearance. Next, I did an IPL treatment, which dramatically reduced skin discoloration and noticeably improved overall tone while stimulating collagen. What really stood out to me was that friends and peers began commenting that I looked “brighter” and more refreshed—without knowing I had done anything at all. Finally, I chose to do a PDO thread treatment, and I can honestly say the result is far more natural than what I’ve seen with traditional facelifts. It restored structure and lift without looking overdone. What sets Dr. Schertell apart is her extreme selectivity—she prioritizes the cleanest, least toxic, and least invasive options, always with the goal of achieving a result that looks healthy and natural. She never pushes treatments, and both she and her staff are professional, friendly, and make you feel completely at ease throughout the process. I am absolutely ecstatic about my results. As a 61-year-old business professional, it’s important to me that I look energized and refreshed; let's face it, collagen and skin start to sag at my age, even with a healthy diet and exercise. I would highly recommend scheduling a consultation to explore which treatments make the most sense for you.

My friend and I recently visited Portsmouth on a girls weekend and had facials at Thrive. Sadie was my esthetician and she could not have been sweeter and more knowledgable. My skin still feels amazing. Aside from a mix up with scheduling, I cannot say one negative thing. Visit Thrive and ask for Sadie, she was fantastic.

Dr. Schertell is amazing. By far, the most caring doctor I have ever seen... She never rushes you, always listens, and is very knowledgeable. It's been a long time since I felt that a doctor has taken a true interest in my well being.

Thrive Spa is my favorite spa around! Marley is awesome! I've had facials, waxing, manicures, and pedicures with Marley and she's always amazing. She takes great care to make sure my nails are perfect and are always meticulous. Her station is clean and she's very professional. My waxing never leaves my face red, as some other spas have done. And the facials ??? SO relaxing, and my skin glows after! I've also had massages with Skylar, the CBD is absolutely my favorite. She has a calming presence, which is always appreciated with a massage. I highly recommend Thrive Spa.

I always have a wonderful experience there. I got the ultimate duo with Dr. Moore. She walked me thru what to expect and recovery which was a breeze. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
