La Fontaine Aesthetics

Currently undergoing a cellulite regimen with Brandy and it is working! Brandy is experienced, attentive, and realistic in what can be accomplished. I am definitely pleased.
Also have had some laser treatments as well. All have turned out with great results.
When thinking about any aesthestic treatments, I think of La Fontaine...they are great!

So here I was, at my wits end with my acne and scarring. It had been 7 years since it all began and even after thousands of dollars, dozens of products and numerous dermatologist visits I sat there with the same acne and more scarring. After swearing to never visit a dermatologist again I found myself browsing online once more hoping to find that one beacon of light to save my skin. By chance I happened to stumble across this little site known as citysearch(dot)com (sound familiar?) and a favorably reviewed place called La Fontaine.

Hey, wait a second, La Fontaine? That sounds more like a spa than a place you'd go for serious dermatological needs. Oh wait, it is a spa. Ok, well if you want to be technical it is a fusion spa. But hey, who I am to judge a places credentials before I've even been there? Oh that's right, I'm the guy who has been to half of the dermatologists in Colorado (slight exaggeration) and has barely seen any results (not an exaggeration).

Yeah, I was skeptical; however I called anyways. I set up my consultation for the following week. The next week I drove down to their location in Cherry Creek. I was happy to see they had a nice underground parking lot especially due to the limited parking in the area. Upon entering their loft I was immediately impressed with the warm and inviting decor and atmosphere. I couldn't forget why I was here though.

I was here on business, skin business. I couldn't let myself get drawn in by the the plush decor... the relaxing music... the br... -wait!- I just barely managed to resist the temptation to cancel my consultation in favor of a Zen Garden Stone massage. Finally it was consultation time. I was greeted by Dr. Ken and the consultation began.

First off I was very impressed by his knowledge, he really knows his stuff. We went over the treatments, medications and products that would be best for my skin and the pricing. What I felt was really notable about this was he didn't push the products or services at all. It was the first time I'd been offered products with honest expectations of results. In the end we determined that a laser peel would be the best route and scheduled a date.

A month later I went in for my laser peel. The entire process was great and yielded by far the best results I've experienced so far (including from lasers by other derms). Overall I was completely satisfied from the experience from the customer service right down to the actual results. My skin isn't perfect yet and it may never be but with the help of Dr. Ken I'm confident I can get it to a point I want it to be at.

Pros: Results, pricing, atmosphere,

Cons: none

Posted 09/09/09

Brandi is very professional and trained and certified for all procedures. I have gotten great results! The staff is very friendly and educated! The treatments work!!!!

Pros: Results

Cons: none

Posted 08/18/09

I highly recommend Dr. Ken Oleszek at La Fontaine Aesthetics for the removal of spider veins. The Diolite treatment is surprisingly simple and effective. I found Dr. Oleszek to be exceptionally professional and courteous?he provided thorough answers and skillful treatment. He obviously takes pride in his work. Spider veins were erased?they simply ceased to exist. I am absolutely thrilled with the immediate and lasting results and only regret not calling earlier.

Posted 07/28/09

I went in to schedule an appointment for a filler last week. The receptionist, Brandi, told me that "all fillers are collagen", could not answer any product related questions in a cohesive manner and kept rolling her eyes. Later on, I found out the there isn't even a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon on duty, but that the place is run by an ER doc! The design and location is not worth the attitude!

Pros: Pretty

Cons: Awful service, dumb staff

Posted 07/18/09

I visited for a bit of Botox to reduce my brow crinkle. The doctor listened and was attentive to my concerns. The brow crinkle has vanished and the deep set line where the brow would "wrinkle" is gone as well. My eyes even look a bit more bright.
However, the doctor did not pump with shots, so my brows looks extremely normal and otherwise mobile. It was an elegant job that never looked like a "job"! I did not even tell my husband, though he has complemented me quite a bit lately... That's great care!

Pros: Helpful

Cons: Pricing is on par with many LA/ NY spas

Posted 06/01/09

My wife convinced me to see Dr. Ken to take care of veins on my face and several bumps that had me concerned around my nose. I was skeptical at first, but after speaking with him was convinced removing several of these concerning bumps was a good idea. Dr Ken was thorough and professional. He was careful and used good anesthetics. After finishing the procedure my face looked a lot better! My wife thinks I look like I took ten years off the age of my skin by removing the veins on my face. I had a lot of sun damage and even though I'm in my late 30's my skin was showing the effects of the sun. I am very happy with the noticeable difference! I am very glad I went to Dr. Ken.
He was great and I would recommend him to any man ( or woman) that needs any facial work.

Pros: Dr Ken is experienced and professional, setting is great.

Cons: none

Posted 07/17/08

I have been seeing Dr. Ken for the past year, and every time I go I am incredibly happy with my results. He is kind and funny and is always very honest about what he feels is most important for improving your skin. He also takes into consideration your wants and is very up-to-date with his procedures. I had my spider veins treated this winter, and could not be happier with my results (I had them treated previously by another spa and they actually burned my skin!). I am getting married in a month and I am confident that Dr. Ken will have me looking my best! I will honestly never visit another place in Denver for another beauty treatment!

Pros: Ambience, Service

Posted 06/27/08

Excellent service. Very knowledgeable. Make sure that you consult with the doctor. Rather than trying to talk you into stuff you don't need, Dr. Ken will give you an honest assessment of what treatment would work best for your skin type. I actually had no bruising because Dr. Ken is so skilled with the needle. I will definitely return for more work.

Posted 06/18/08

For such an upscale place in Cherry Creek, I was not very impressed with their level of services. The doctor who greeted my fiance and I was very impersonal and not very friendly-perhaps even a bit arrogant. I had considered seeing him for a couple of medical services, but since he really could not describe the treatments (insisting that I should schedule a consultation), I decided to go to my dermatologist whose answers are anything but cryptic. This spa seemed empty on the day of our appts, so I guess we could not understand why we were left in the waiting area for so long?

Pros: Stephanie is a sweetheart

Posted 06/14/08

I had a photofacial done at La Fontaine, 18 months ago and my adult acne has not returned. I still cannot believe that one treatment is all it took. I had been frustrated with the acne for several years. People would ask, "what's on your face?" As a woman over fifty it was embarrassing, the red marks would never seem to go away- they have been gone for 18 months. Amazing!
Dr O has a very calm and realistic approach to cosmetic procedures. He wants what ever he does to look natural and has great judgement in presenting just that. I would and have recommended him to many people.

Pros: Discretion

Cons: Location for me

Posted 05/27/08

Suzanne just gave me the best facial I have ever received in my life. She was so patient, and explained everything that she was doing as she was doing it. So relaxing and my skin feels and looks like new!!!! I will be back so soon, way sooner than I ever have gone back for a facial in my life!!!! My pores have been minimized after just one treatment!!!

Pros: Free Parking, Awesome Service, Great Value, No High-Pressure Sales Tactics

Cons: None

Posted 01/25/08

I only learned about the spa from doing an online search - no recommendations from friends, or reading reviews. I am thrilled to be writing a review about this spa. All the staff are so welcoming. Dr. O is especially caring and so helpful. He makes sure you're at-ease, even after your visit. He'll call to make sure you're doing well. What doctor does that these days? I highly recommend La Fontaine! This is not a "typical" Cherry Creek pretentious spa. You're working with real people that care and are respectful of privacy.

Pros: Service, Location and Privacy

Cons: None

Posted 01/01/08

I went to see Dr. Ken after having gone to another clinic where I felt brushed off and fairly insignificant as compared to their typical client base. Dr. Ken's staff was extraordinarily helpful and welcoming. I was somewhat apprehensive but Dr. Ken was funny, engaging and instantly put me at ease. He went to extremes to make my procedure (restylane) as painless as possible. I doubt I will ever seek out the services of another salon/clinic after having gone to LaFontaine.

Pros: ambiance, staff

Cons: none

Posted 12/10/07

Exceptional treatments! Friendly and inviting staff. The medical spa treatments show the results and are worth it!

Posted 11/30/07

I have been going to Dr. Ken for over a year to treat my rosacea. He always does my IPL treatments (which is unheard of in a Med Spa world). He keeps up on the latest technologies, equipment and prodecures available for my condition. He is honest and has a dedication to the well being of his patients. AND he doesn't try to upsell. If it won't work for you - he'll tell you. The office atmosphere is calming and the customer service exceptional. I would highly recommend La Fontaine above a Mall Med Spa that uses aestheticians and sub par equipment. I completely trust Dr. Ken and his staff.

Pros: Having a Dr. giving you your treatment

Cons: None that I've found

Posted 11/11/07

I loved my experience at La Fontaine! A really beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. I have been using Restylane and Botox for a few years now. Having just moved to Colorado, I was really nervous about seeing a new doctor. I would definitely recommend that anyone thinking about these procedures see Dr. Oleszek. He is very knowledge and explains things thoroughly. He really took the time to be sure I was comfortable ? no pressure or rush as I have seen elsewhere. Dr. Oleszek put me right at ease and did a fantastic job. The least painful I have ever experienced and with great results! I can't wait to go back!

Posted 10/22/07

I went to LaFontaine for minor skin therapy. Dr. Oleszek put me at ease and impressed me very favorably by explaining clearly the dermatological procedures he uses. I am totally satisfied with my experience so far, and I intend to return to LaFontaine. I'm recommending Dr. Oleszek to all my friends.

Pros: These people treat their patients like royalty.

Posted 10/14/07

I just moved here from NYC and it has been tough to find my favorite new spots. A friend of mine had told me about La Fontaine. I called to book an appointment for a facial, I have had a facial for the last 15 years+ every other month. I'm very particular as to what a facial should include, I have had facials all around the world by some of the most reputable facialist. Needless to say my expectations can sometimes be hard to meet! I went into La Fontaine with an open mind, this would be my fourth facial in Denver and still no luck! As I walked into the spa I was amazed by the decor... It was like being in Thailand! My experience had already started out exceeding my expectation! I had a wonderful facial treatment by Kristi. She had in-depth knowledge on each question that was presented and her touch is indescribable. She knew when to talk and knew when to let me relax. I felt so comfortable with her and enjoyed every minute I was there. It's great to know that she is confident and comfortable giving advice and treatment suggestions. This exceeded my expectation in every way possible. Thank you to Kristi and La Fontaine for such an enjoyable experience... I will be back next month!

Pros: Beautiful spa and Outdoor Zen lounge, Complementary Parking

Cons: Hard to see from the street

Posted 10/11/07

It was very difficult to get a straight answer about some of the procedures. I had a few questions about fillers and Botox (which I have had several times before) that were not answered very well which made me very uneasy. They advertise as leaders in Botox and fillers but did not seem to live up to that. I ended up having my treatment done somewhere else.

Pros: Nice Environment

Cons: Did not present procedures well

Posted 06/01/07

its great!!! ...... ........................ .... ................ ............. .................. ..................... ............... ................. ................ ..................................

I am currently receiving laser hair removal for my face and neck by Dr. Ken Oleszek, M.D. He is very polite, likes his job, and knows a lot about his field. If anyone is seeking laser hair removal come to La Fontaine to get it done. He uses the most up-to-date technology (Starlux IPL w/cooling system) that provided me with visible results after the first treatment.

Pros: Ambiance, Parking, Service

Posted 01/14/07

This is definitely the best medi-spa I've experienced in the Boulder/Denver area. Dr. Oleszek was happy to answer all of my questions and demonstrated amazing skill and talent in the art/science of facial aesthetics. After previous restylane injections for lip-aug (performed elsewhere) yielded unsatisfactory results, I was hesitant to try it again. But I am sooo glad I decided to come in to La Fontaine because I am 100% satisfied with the outcome- I will certainly be coming back again!

Posted 01/01/07

A beautiful facility and a caring and accommodating staff (not to mention free customer parking in Cherry Creek North) make this spa one of the best I've ever been to, and certainly the best in Denver. I highly recommend trying them out.

Posted 12/30/06

Over the past couple of years I've noticed small and somewhat light brown spots appearing on my back, shoulder and checks. I asked my general doctor about this and he said it was from sun damage. I just had all of these removed painlessly, easily and it was affordable! It requires a couple of treatments but they are gone!
I had this done by Dr. Oleszek and he was wonderful. Extremely knowledgeable, pleasant and very easy to ask questions about the different procedures. We spent more than 30 minutes discussing some of the different treatments - what a treat to have someone so knowledgeable spend so much time with me teaching me about all of it.
If you have sun spots this is a MUST!

Pros: great doctor, wonderful ambience, free parking

Posted 10/18/06

I had 'sculptra' done and it looks fantastic! I wasn't familiar with this procedure before but Dr. Oleszek did a great job of explaining it and I love it! It's not noticeably 'fake' but I feel in rejuvenates my appearance in a youthful way. Basically, it added fullness to my cheeks and and my upper lip (to help avoid the inevitable lines that coming...one day).
Dr. Oleszek was great - as I said he was extremely informative and spent a lot of time explaining the different procedures and pros and cons of each. He knows his stuff inside and out and also has a good eye for suggestions on how to preserve my skin and overall youthful appearance.
The spa itself is amazing - it's like walking into another world where there is no stress or anxiety. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming.
I recommend this spa, and especially Dr. Oleszek, to anyone interested in having great looking skin!

Pros: The doctor, the procedure, the information

Posted 10/18/06

I received a 90 minute Thai massage from Natalie... and Wow. This massage was the most relaxing and yet re-energizing treatment I have ever had. She works wonders...I feel like i just took a seriouse yoga class and had a massage at the same time... the steam shower prior to the massage was an amazing and detoxifying experience. I would suggest this for anyone who is bored of the same old fluff massage... Natalie and La fontaine Aesthetics get my seal of approval! On a scale of 1-10...this is real a 12!

Pros: Free Parking, great tea and kind staff

Cons: Not a one!

Posted 09/27/06

I absolutely loved the facial I received from Kimberly at La Fontaine. It's been a week now since I saw her, and my skin STILL looks and feels like I was just there. The atmosphere at La Fontaine instantly put my mind at ease, and the entire staff was both welcoming and friendly. The facial tricked me into believing I was on vacation; the aromas, music, and expertise of the aesthetician truly pampered me. Bonus: Kimberly also did an excellent job waxing my eyebrows and bikini area. I will definitely be coming back, hopefully very soon!

Pros: Friendly and well-skilled staff, beautiful decor and ambience, convenient parking

Posted 09/25/06

I came to La Fontaine on recommendation from a friend. I have had many facials in my life but none compared to the experience I had this time. The Oxygen Glow Facial Kimberly gave me was the BEST facial I've ever had! She made me feel amazing and my skin was literally glowing.

Pros: Excellent facial

Posted 09/23/06

Truthfully, the experience at La Fontaine is one of the best. From the moment you walk in the door, you notice that excellent decor. The staff is extremely helpful as you wait for your treatment. I have been going in for laser hair removal. The procedure is much less painful that waxing and the staff has techniques to make the treatment as comfortable as possible.

Posted 09/21/06

Dr. Oleszek does wonders with the Portrait Plasma treatment. He took ten years off my mother's face! Dr. Ken was not only on the premises when she got her plasma treatment, (I've been to too many "Med-Spas" where we never even met the doctor) but he actually treated her, followed up, and helped her get the best result possible. And Jessica is absolutely the best! She's got us on LaFontaine's awesome skincare program! Her expertise, and her touch will keep mom (and me) coming back for more!

Posted 09/13/06

My expereince with La Fontaine has been a pleasure! In one word, the spa is beautiful! I just visited the spa for my first Lypodissolve treatment with Dr. Oleszek. He took his time explaining the procedure and answering all of my questions. He was knowledgable and very honest about what I may expect from the procedure. Dr. Olesek even helped me decide what type of treatment would benefit me most. The staff's service was also quite impressive. I will certainly be back and would highly reccommend La Fontaine Aesthetics Spa to anyone.

Pros: Great Atmosphere & Great Service

Cons: none

Posted 08/22/06

I went in about a month ago for one of the procedures La Fontaine offers. This place is amazing!! Staff is very friendly, Dr. Oleszek was extremely helpful and worked with me to find a treatment that would benefit me the most. I really think La Fontaine is one of the best spas in the area. I would truly reccommend it to anyone who would like to better themselves.

Posted 08/17/06

From a guy's perspective, the best facial anywhere. Great experience, great atmosphere, great service. Jessica is the best with a winning smile, personality and the ability to make a facial a first class experience. After several return visits, it remains the best. Highly recommended!

Pros: Atmoshere, Service, Parking

Cons: None

Posted 08/13/06

Looking for a "10" in a spa experience? As you enter La Fontaine you are warmly welcomed by the staff and enveloped in the sound of falling water and the exotic visual of Thailand. My first experience here was a facial with Jessica. She is extremely knowledgeable and skilled in her craft. She was able to make me feel as though I was her only customer and she was my personal esthetician. She really deserved a big hug!!! Since, I have been back for additional facials, waxing, and brow tinting. I have also indulged in a massage--terrific. Also, Dr. Oleszek performed a minor miracle on my "concentration lines." I have recommended La Fontaine to all my friends. I'll be back again, and again, and again.......

Pros: knowledgeable, educational, warm

Cons: none

Posted 08/13/06

I went to this spa on reccomendation and received a massage that was terrible. The therapist was nice however the treatment consisted of little real massage- just mostly moving my skin around very fast. It was absolutely one the worst spa treatments I've had. I do treat myself to massages frequently and understand that therapists have different methods and skills but this was absolutely ridiculous.

Posted 07/31/06

After 35 weeks of pregnancy and many sleepless nights (due to severe low back and hip pain), my husband surprised me with a 90-minute prenatal massage at La Fontaine Aesthetics. Not only was the massage out of this world, but the personal time and treatment that I received from the entire staff will keep me returning long after the baby is born. After the massage I felt a hundred and fifty percent better --it was the best 90 minutes of my life!

Pros: reserved covered parking, friendly and knowledgable staff

Posted 07/20/06

My experience at La Fontaine was beyond my expectations. I went to La Fontaine for Botox and after seeing their vast selection of other services, I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Quigley to analyze my smile. My motivation was to enhance my smile yet have a natural looking result. Zoom whitening followed by eight veneers has improved not only my smile but my self-esteem. It's great to receive so many compliments! Dr. Quigley created an amazing natural looking smile for me and I would recommend him to anyone seeking a similar improvement.

Pros: Free parking, outdoor Zen garden, outstanding customer service

Posted 06/18/06

I was reccomended to La Fontaine for botox by a friend of mine. I had never had botox before, and I did not know what to expect. Dr. Oleszek seemed very knowledgable and explained things well to me. The botox was almost painless and was much easier than I expected. Not only did I get rid of that nasty wrinkle between my eyebrows, but also helped take the sagging skin off my eyelid. Afterwards, my boyfriend said how relaxed I looked, but didn't know that I had botox.
The staff was very friendly and the place is beautiful. Overall, a very good experience for a botox newcomer.

Pros: gentle, knowledgable

Cons: parking structure had small parking places
