I did microneedling with Dr. Safiyah West and had such a great experience. She was so kind and welcoming. She made sure I felt comfortable and answered all of my questions. She goes above and beyond to ensure you have all the information you need about the procedure and the after care. This was my first time doing microneedling and I will be going back to her moving forward.

Safiyah is the absolute best! She makes you feel so comfortable throughout all your sessions and kindly remembers even the smallest details about yourself. I would recommend her to anyone and will be a returning customer for other treatments as well.

Safiyah is the best and great at what she does! My experience after each of the 8 sessions I had was excellent. I always felt like I was in good hands, cared for and properly informed about everything before, during and after the sessions. The space is also really beautiful and welcoming. Would highly recommend!

I found Arta Medical Spa on Classpass while looking for waxing services, but saw they offered a lip flip as well. I've been thinking about trying this procedure for about two years and decided to give it a go.

I was greeted by
Dr. Safiyah West in her very clean and state-of-the-art office. She was very open and honest about what the procedure entailed, discomfort involved, and aftercare instructions. I really enjoyed meeting her.

The procedure itself was mildly uncomfortable, no more than 4 little pricks to my lip area. I didn't experience any swelling, redness, or bruising. While I haven't experienced the flip yet (that happens as the botox activates in about 7-12 days), I'm very pleased with the level of care and professionalism I received from Dr. West.

I had an amazing experience at Arta Medical Spa!

From the moment I walked in, Safiyah made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. She offered me water and coffee, explained the entire laser hair removal (LHR) process from beginning to end, and made sure I understood what to expect and how to take care of my skin afterward.

She was extremely professional, detail-oriented, and patient offering breaks whenever the treatment got intense.

The office itself is spotless, easy to find, and has a relaxing atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease.

As a Black man who’s struggled with razor bumps and ingrown hairs for years due to my coarse curly hair (even had to spend a few days 8 in the hospital because of them!), I was honestly nervous at first. But Safiyah really understood my skin type and hair texture, and she customized a treatment plan specifically for my complexion. That level of care made all the difference.

I also love that this is a Black-owned business, and I truly encourage more men especially men of color (fellas please ignore all stigmas!! your body will thank you) to be open-minded to the benefits of these treatments. I’m already seeing a huge improvement, and I couldn’t recommend Safiyah and Arta Medical Spa more highly.

This was my very first experience with any type of medical spa, and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Arta Medical Spa for my Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN) removal. After turning 40, I noticed the growing number of DPNs that were appearing on my face and neck, which started to make me less confident. I started searching for a place that specialized in African American skin, as I’ve heard that melanated skin can sometimes react negatively to certain treatments. That made me especially nervous since the removal was on my face.

While skimming through different websites, I paid close attention to companies that included discussions about melanated skin and photos of African American women. Arta Medical Spa checked those boxes.

Scheduling with Safiyah was super easy and convenient. From the moment we met, she was so personable and welcoming, which instantly eased my nerves. She reassured me about the process, explained everything clearly, and was incredibly knowledgeable about proactive skin care, management, and follow-up.

The actual removal was quick, the pricing was reasonable, and the results are amazing! Most importantly, now they are gone and the skin is healing! I have committed to wearing sunscreen daily to protect my skin going forward.

I highly recommend Arta Medical Spa and Safiyah to anyone, especially those with melanated skin. If you’re looking for professional, safe, and effective skin care this is the spa for you. I’ll definitely be back for future spa treatments!

What can I say… I was nervous to try a new place for laser hair removal and Safiyah was beyond amazing! She’s welcoming, easy to talk to, and great at her job. I will 100% be coming back— I trust her completely and would rather support a small woman owned business anyway! You won’t regret going to Arta Med Spa. 🫶

I highly recommend Arta Medical Spa. I had a great experience with Dr. West, who completed my DPN removal procedure. She did an amazing job, was very thorough, & provided excellent after-care instructions. I definitely plan to go to her again for future skincare needs. Don't hesitate to choose Dr. West if you're thinking about getting your DPNs removed. The results are amazing.

This is long overdue, but I wanted to thank Dr. West for the work she did (DPN removal) and to recommend her to anyone looking for a top notch provider of aesthetic medicine.

Dr. West is as meticulous and thorough as she is kind, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The results from my DPN removal treatment have been overwhelming (in a good way!) and I am grateful everyday for the difference she has made in my skin. If you've been at all considering any of the services she offers, I would recommend you wait no more. Dr. West is the one to go to.

I had a wonderful experience with Safiyah. She is very kind, attentive, and professional. During the initial consultation, everything was explained thoroughly and I was able to schedule treatment the same week. Safiyah provided clear, detailed before and after care instructions. The process was smooth and comfortable throughout. I am extremely satisfied with my results. Highly recommend!

I have had two laser hair removal treatments with Dr. West, and I honestly couldn't be more pleased! From start to finish, the experience has been outstanding. Dr. West was incredibly professional, warm, and knowledgeable -- she provided a free consultation and took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.

As someone new to laser hair removal, I really appreciated how clearly everything was explained. Dr. West's expertise immediately put me at ease, and I felt confident I was in the best hands.

If you're thinking about laser hair removal, I highly recommend seeing Dr. West -- she is absolutely amazing!

I’ve been a client Dr. West’s for laser hair removal and have had a wonderful experience. She has a great bedside manner, is careful yet efficient, and takes pain management and any concerns I’ve had seriously. Easy to communicate and schedule with her. Facilities are clean and metro accessible. Highly recommend!

Dr. West is truly a standout in the world of medical aesthetics. From the very first appointment, she took the time to understand my needs and made sure I felt completely comfortable and informed every step of the way.

I’ve completed five laser hair removal sessions with her (full Brazilian and underarms), and the results have been incredible. Not only have I experienced zero complications, but the texture of my skin has improved dramatically. I no longer struggle with painful ingrown hairs or the hassle of weekly shaving—my beauty routine is now so much easier! I also really appreciate that her laser is safe and effective for brown skin, and she’s been so attentive in ensuring flawless, lasting results.

In addition to laser hair removal, I also trusted Dr. West with facial balancing treatments, including Botox and filler. I was a little nervous initially, but she explained everything in detail, gave thoughtful recommendations, and made the entire process smooth and reassuring. Her post-treatment instructions were clear, and once the normal swelling subsided, the results looked completely natural—like a more refreshed version of myself. I’m looking forward to trying her PRF treatment for my under eyes soon!

If you’re looking for a skilled, thoughtful, and meticulous expert to guide you through your medical aesthetics journey, I can’t recommend Dr. West enough. She’s the one to book with

I highly recommend Arta Medical Spa. Dr. Safiyah is a beautiful person inside and out. She's both professional and personable. I feel very comfortable speaking with her about things that people are often shy about sharing with medical professionals. She has a way of making you feel like you're sitting around talking to your closest friend (but she can actual help with your concerns). A friend referred her to me laser hair removal and I am so grateful she did. I've referred a couple of my other friends for various services and they all speak very highly of her. I travel and hour and a half to my appointments because I love this practice.
