Karina has been my cosmetologist for five years. I’m very happy that I was lucky enough to find an excellent specialist who knows what she’s doing. Karina not only performs cosmetic procedures for me but also selects and recommends skincare products. She understands the composition of skincare products and knows all the ingredients, which is very important to me. Karina always provides knowledgeable answers to any question I have.

I cannot recommend Karina enough! After struggling with acne for 10 years, I finally found relief through her facials and personalized skincare routine. My skin is now clear, and I feel more confident than ever. Karina is incredibly caring and knowledgeable, and she always follows up to ensure I’m on the right track. If you're looking for someone to help with your skin, look no further—Karina is the best!

I cannot recommend Skin Stories (SS) enough! As an very dark skin African American woman struggling with melasma, finding the right skincare professional who truly understands my skin's unique needs has been a challenge—until I met Karina. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and understood.
Karina took the time to listen to my concerns and crafted a personalized treatment plan that specifically targeted my melasma. Her expertise in treating hyperpigmentation on darker skin tones is unparalleled.
Over the course of a few sessions, I noticed a significant reduction in my dark spots and an overall improvement in my skin’s texture and tone. Beyond the visible results, Karina empowered me with valuable skincare advice to maintain and enhance my results between appointments.
Her passion for skincare and dedication to her clients' well-being is evident in every session. My skin has never looked better, and I couldn't be more grateful!

I absolutely love my visits with Karina and visit her every two weeks to get my acne treated! She consistently goes above and beyond in caring for my acne-prone skin. Her knowledge is incredible, and she takes the time to explain each step of the process. When it comes to extractions, she is both thorough and gentle, making a sometimes uncomfortable process as pleasant as possible. I couldn’t recommend a more caring and skilled esthetician to help with your skin! My skin has never looked this clear since my bout with acne started 5 years ago. I love Skin Stories NYC! <3

Karina is a hidden gem !!! She gets to know you and your body from the inside out and wants to get to the root of whats bothering you. It’s a safe space and she always has something to suggest or try. She’s very good at acne extractions that help to maintain healthy skin.
I highly recommend if you want a comprehensive and knowledgeable acne specialist :)

Karina is truly a professional when it comes to skincare and wellness. She’s not only cleared all my acne and scars, but has taught me best practices to prevent breakouts and maintain healthy, glowy skin which I’ve instilled in my everyday regiment. She’s accommodating with scheduling appointments as I have an unpredictable work schedule. I also have had great results with her products. I’ve used them for years. Highly recommend!
