Client Reviews

I definitely recommend James. I came to him because I was concerned about wrinkles, loose skin, and the visible signs of aging. He did the Mini Butterfly Facelift, which combines radio frequency microneedling, TriPollar, and Ultherapy to address those concerns. From the very beginning, he took the time to listen to my concerns, thoroughly, and create a treatment plan that was personalized to exceed my goals. I’ve been so happy with the results. My skin looks smoother, firmer, and more youthful. What impressed me most was the level of care and attention Jim brings to my appointment. He is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and detail oriented, and I can tell he genuinely enjoys helping his patients achieve the best possible results. I always felt comfortable asking questions because he took the time to explain everything clearly and made me feel confident throughout the entire process. His experience and dedication are evident in the quality of his work, and I’m so thankful I found him. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jim to anyone looking for someone who is skilled, professional, and truly cares about delivering beautiful, youthful looking results.

Treatment clarification: Apollo TriPollar® RF is available as a standalone $300–$900 treatment. It is separate from the Mini Butterfly Facelift®, which combines four technologies: Apollo TriPollar® RF, ultrasonic cavitation, red light therapy and near-infrared therapy. The review above reflects the client’s own wording.

After having rhinoplasty five years ago, I still had some fullness/fat left around my nose that bothered me. James did ultrasonic cavitation to reduce the excess fat and improve the contour. I am very happy by the results. My nose looks more refined and tighter. I love how he corrected my nose surgery and fixed the details. He explained the process thoroughly and made me feel comfortable throughout the visit. What I appreciate most about James is his professionalism, attention to detail and honesty. He takes the time to answer every question, explain each step of the process, and make sure you feel informed and comfortable throughout your treatment. It’s rare to find someone who combines so much knowledge and vast experience with such genuine care for their patients. I can tell he truly loves helping people feel more confident. I’m so thankful I found him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their face.

I can’t say enough good things about Newport Beach Skin Tightening and James hooper. As a professional model, my career is built on my appearance, so I’m extremely selective about who I trust with my face. Before choosing James, I booked consultations with several other providers because I always believe in doing my research and shopping around. Every consultation started the same way: people would tell me how great my skin looked. While I appreciated the compliment, they weren’t really seeing the subtle concerns I was noticing. James was different. Before I even told him what bothered me, he had me sit in front of a mirror and carefully study my face with him. It felt like watching an artist analyze a canvas. He pointed out every concern I had noticed, plus a few areas I hadn’t even considered that could benefit from preventative treatment in the future. What impressed me most was his eye for detail and his commitment to natural results. I’ve never had fillers or Botox, and preserving my natural appearance is incredibly important to me. James understood that immediately and created a plan that enhanced my features without changing what makes me look like me. I had my procedure done yesterday, and today I woke up with virtually no redness and no obvious signs that I had anything done. I even went out in public and saw friends who had no idea I had a procedure. Instead, they simply commented that my skin looked amazing, healthy, and glowing. That’s exactly what I wanted. James has a rare combination of technical skill, artistry, and honesty. He focuses on long-term results, prevention, and natural beauty rather than chasing trends. I’ve also seen some of his before-and-after transformations on other clients, and the results are incredibly impressive while still looking natural. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands facial aesthetics and can help you look refreshed, youthful, and naturally beautiful without looking overdone, I highly recommend James hooper and Newport Beach Skin Tightening. A true artist, and someone I’m incredibly grateful to have found.

came here to Newport Beach Skin Tightening did the Butterfly Facelift James Hooper made my eyebags go away by 50% I was very happy at the verify facelift and my eyebags going. I would highly recommend this company.

As a very discerning mother of a child who was a professional athlete, I have attended many social events and high-profile gatherings where looking polished, elegant, and sophisticated is important. Because of that, I am extremely selective about who I trust with my appearance. Jim Hooper exceeded all of my expectations. He was able to achieve beautiful, natural-looking facial results that were classy, refined, and never overdone. His attention to detail, professionalism, and artistic eye truly set him apart. I felt refreshed, confident, and like the very best version of myself. What impressed me even more was the exceptional value for the level of service and results he provides. It is rare to find someone who combines talent, integrity, and affordability so seamlessly. I would highly recommend Jim Hooper to anyone seeking elegant, tasteful, and expertly done facial enhancements. He is truly outstanding.

I couldn’t be happier with my results! Jim was incredibly knowledgeable and performed non-surgical skin tightening treatments. I’ve noticed significantly less sagging in my neck, my face, and a much more defined jawline. While the pain was minimal, I was absolutely shocked by the before-and-after results. ❤️❤️❤️

I've been going to this med spa for over 5 years, and Jim has been the one providing my Ultherapy and microneedling. He is truly exceptional at what he does. Jim is incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and takes the time to make sure I feel comfortable and informed throughout each procedure. Every single visit, he exceeds my expectations -- not only with the results, but with the level of care and attention he provides. The results have always been natural, consistent, and exactly what I'm hoping for. I trust him completely and wouldn't go anywhere else. If you're looking for someone skilled, honest, and experienced, Jim is the best.

Jim Hooper did a great job on my face with the Apollo tri puller very happy

I loved my experience with Jim Hooper! He was so personable and informative about all his products and procedures. I did the 20min Apollo Tripollar for $300 and was blown away at the transformation from just one session. I didn’t know my nose could be straighter & I finally have a jaw line! I’ll be returning for the Butterfly Facelift after seeing these miracle results. When I return I’ll be credited $300 towards the Butterfly Facelift. Great location, great service!

Recently went to Newport Beach Skin Tightening for a scar removal treatment with Jim, and I’m honestly really happy with my experience. The treatment included microneedling and another add-on (can’t remember the name!), but the whole thing was painless thanks to Jim’s strong numbing cream. After first session, I can already see my acne scars softening and blending into my skin. My skin feels smoother, and I’m starting to get my confidence back, excited to see the results and will update after my second visit. Consultation was super comfortable as well, Jim took his time showed me the exact areas that needed work, and also explained everything clearly. He’s a genuinely nice guy and really knows his craft. If you’re thinking about improving your skin or bringing back a more youthful look, I definitely recommend giving Jim a try.

Jim is amazing and very personal! He goes above and beyond for his clients! The whole process is so relaxing and you definitely can see the difference and can't wait to do more! Go and book your appointment I promise you won't be disappointed! You will only regret not booking sooner! So happy with my results!!

Wow! What a difference! I’m almost 50 years old and my face has been falling down for years now. I’ve tried different treatments over the years. None had results lasting more than a day. Jim used the Apollo and cavitation devices on me and the results are awesome! I’ve even had friends tell me I look fresh and rested! Win!! Jim smoothed out old filler. He greatly finished my eye bags. He got rid of the fat in the lower half of my face and neck and chin. The jowls are almost gone! I actually have a jawline again! I haven’t seen this face in years ! I am so pleased and thankful for Jim. He’s a great guy. He will give you his absolute full attention. He’s honest and has good energy. He’s passionate about his work. He will do whatever it takes to make you look better. Go see Jim! I have a few tips. Parking is easy. Jim’s office shares space with a day spa so look for the spa signage outside of suite 106 in building K. Show up fresh faced with no makeup. You will get ultrasound gel in you hair, eyebrows and lashes so maybe wait til after the appointment to do those other types of appointments. Thank you Jim. I can’t wait to go back. I’m excited to see what a second treatment would do. Btw, he recommends 3 treatments. I’m so happy after just one treatment.
