Nicole is an outstanding injection artist. I would not trust my face to anyone else. Nicole took time and extreme care to create the perfect look for me. I could not be happier!
Courtesy and professionalism are at the top of my list. It works!
Staff is always helpful, any questions I had have been thoroughly explained. Always a pleasant experience.
This was my first time seeing Nicole Beam - the person with whom I had the appointment was out sick. I typically prefer to see the same person when I visit CaloSpa and was apprehensive when I learned I would be seeing someone new. Nicole was very understanding and make sure I was comfortable with having her provide the treatment. I would definitely see Nicole again for future visits.
Friendly and helpful. Trina is trustworthy and answered all of my questions.
All my questions were answered, everyone was courteous and nice, and there wasn't a long wait to be seen.
Brooke is wonderful! She made me feel at ease and actually listened to my concerns and formulated a plan for my treatment regimen. She is very sweet and upbeat.
Trina is phenomenal with my Botox. Perfect every time!
My face did look so refreshed from the hydrafacial. I would not put make up on for 3 days as a result. Although no one commented on my face, I most definitely could see the improvement in the appearance of my skin. I have had Botox in the past, but Lisa did a professional/knowledgeable job with the placement of the Botox and even though it was her first time meeting with me, she was conservative in the amount she felt I would need, and I think she made the perfect call in doing so as I am MUCH more pleased with my results. Office is gorgeous, modern/contemporary yet warm and comfortable. Staff were professional and friendly. Staff were also down to earth, not like some other spas/cosmetic facilities in Lexington where the staff appear to have rolled in from Rodeo Drive.
The staff were all highly knowledgeable of the procedures. Staff members were very professional and helpful with any and all questions. The fine lines seemed to even out.
Service and staff were wonderful!
I felt very at ease from the start. Combined with the relaxing atmosphere and professionalism from the staff, especially working with Julia, knew I'd make the right choice!
Everyone was amazingly kind and down to earth. Dr. Mays took his time and listened to me and my questions and answered everything thoroughly and in a way I felt comfortable with. There was no air of arrogance I've encountered with some other doctors. I felt incredibly valued and respected. The process of getting my costs and booking a surgery date was wonderful as well! ALL my questions were answered and she was very down to earth and relatable as well. I have already recommended Dr. Mays and a friend has her own surgery scheduled with him!
Expertise. Friendly accommodating and experience.
Katie is wonderful and puts me at ease despite my anxiety/worries about new procedures! She's willing to spend extra time with me and answer all of my questions! It has given my confidence back!
Karen is great nice experienced trust her.
Brooke is both charming and a professional. After two treatments not satisfied with results. Brooke assures me results will be seen after third treatment.
Trina is amazing!!! Very friendly yet professional! Have had other providers at Calobrace but Trina is absolutely the best! I love Carrie Woods also!!
Brooke did an excellent job of explaining the procedure and answering my questions. She also provided me with information on a Dr. in San Diego that I can followup with another procedure if I want to . ( I moved to San Diego, CA the following week).
Brooke is very thoughtful and knowledgeable. She helped me understand what to expect. Then she helped me to see the results I got through before and after pictures.
The nurses and staff all listen to what I would like to gain from the procedures and they explain every step and what to expect. I have been very pleased with the laser treatment outcomes and Jessica and Trina with my fillers and Botox. [Single best thing is...] The pico genesis laser getting rid of skin pigmentation on my face.
I had an amazing experience and everything went smooth! Will definitely do again! [Single best thing is...] The way my lips looked afterward! I was so scared but they looked amazing!
Very professional all around, and polite. I felt very welcome and was impressed with the office appearance as well.
From the time I walked into the front door to the time I left EVERYONE made me feel at ease and relaxed. I was nervous coming into the appointment but once I was there I knew that was the place to be. All staff and Dr. Mays were more than accommodating and I can not wait to have my procedure done.
The office staff was knowledgeable. I felt educated about the procedure as well as the expectations. The financial process is overwhelming but explained well.
Dr. Mays explained everything he was going to do. The medical staff were all so professional and kind.
Dr. Mays listened to all my concerns. He made me feel comfortable and secure. I felt he really cared about me as he would a family member. I didn't feel rushed I was really scared and he helped me through my fear. I felt he wanted the best for me.
Trina always listens to me and makes sure to give me exactly what I want during my Botox appointments. I always get the exact results I imagined and will continue to go to her.
The staff is wonderful and they make everyone feel so welcome. I love her knowledge and I feel confident I'm getting the best treatment from her.
Very timely with service and professional. Looking better.
Katie Hicks did the procedure and I was very satisfied with her professionalism and care for my comfort.
Brooke is always willing to explain and help her clients.
Trina is an excellent injector! I frequently get asked who does my Botox, I'm always happy to share her name!! Calling in for a appt is always net with a "can you please hold?" Usually longer than I'd like.
Everyone I came into contact with was so nice and helpful. Dr. Mays put me at ease, was very easy to talk to and gave me the information I needed.
Dr. Mays and the nurses are amazing. Everyone is so nice, calming, and thorough. They make you feel comfortable and confident in your decisions. Dr. Mays has an excellent bedside manner. I appreciated his attention to detail and expertise. I will definitely recommend to my family and friends.
I felt like Dr. Mays was understanding and honestly explained his thoughts regarding my expectations.
The office setting was beautiful and all of the employees were very helpful.
The staff took time to talk about my concerns and explain what I would be a good candidate for.
The staff made me feel comfortable and took their time explaining things to me that was a concern for me. They explained what sizes they would recommend for me considering my everyday life activities. They took their time answering all of my questions and didn't rush me at all. I got my consultation and surgery scheduled very quick and last minute and the staff was all very nice and accommodating.
Efficient and informative. Effective yet natural looking.
Seemed like a friendly and professional place to have my procedure done.
Great experience, Katie Hicks is wonderful!
The service, the friendliness, and the expertise and professionalism and knowledge of the surgeon. FYI, he dresses absolutely on point!
Kaitlyn is highly professional and knowledgeable. She made me feel very confident in her abilities to perform the procedure. She was extremely thorough and detail oriented and I felt she was working with me to get the best results possible.
Every staff member I met was very friendly during my visit and seemed to be just as excited as I was about me getting the procedure. They were professional while also being laid back and made me feel very comfortable during my visit. The nurses and surgeon took the time to answer all of my questions I had while providing me with a lot of new information. I feel very comfortable moving forward with my procedure knowing I have chosen a great facility and staff who care about my experience just as much as I do.
Yes, prompt service, explained everything well.
This was the absolute best experience I've ever had. I couldn't be happier with my results and Trina is truly talented. I couldn't be happier and I feel more confident than ever. [Single best thing is...] The outcome. My lips are perfect. Naturally enhanced.
Nice environment and friendly knowledgeable staff. I would say the staff was SUPER friendly that stands out in my mind the most.
Amy is both knowledgeable and kind. She exceeded my expectations and listened to my needs.
I love the atmosphere of the clinic. I didn't feel pressure to make a decision. The surgeon provided me an alternative to the surgery until I make a decision.
I didn't schedule my procedure at first only because I need to look at my calendar. However, I was so comfortable with my appointment and options and was ready to schedule right then! I have even referred others to CaloAesthetics already!
Brooke is very knowledgeable with a high skill level and knowledge base. This combined with a great bedside manner is very desirable for success as an aesthetician and for customer satisfaction. [Single Best Thing about Procedure...:] Some decrease in upper abdominal fat pockets.
The surgeon and the nurse were very hospitable.
I was treated with respect throughout the visit. Thorough explanation of procedure discussed.
Trina was very nice and knowledgeable. The facility was beautiful.
I had a consult with Brooke and loved her professionalism and honesty. Waiting for open house to get the discount for the procedure. Appreciate Brooke telling me about the savings!
Dr May's and the staff are very professional and friendly and make you feel like they care about you... this will be a second surgery there for me and I have had several procedures done there. They are the best... I wouldn't go anywhere else.
The staff and surgeon were extremely helpful and answered all my questions. I did a lot of research on the Internet with reviews and spoke to varies people about this procedure. Based on my research this practice and surgeons were the best that is why I chose them for my consult and surgery.
Was made to feel comfortable. The environment was welcoming and it felt clean and organized. It was a good first impression. Dr. Mays was pleasant and felt like it was a good fit.
I'd prefer to work with Calospa, as opposed to other practices I've visited, Brooke was very knowledgable and I felt comfortable with her. I'm just a bit confused about financing options. Other offices sat me down with someone in "billing" to discuss this before leaving my consultation. One person did call me about options, but I had follow-up questions after that conversation (I can't recall her name, but she was very friendly and helpful as well). When I called back the available staff seemed a bit confused and weren't able to provide me with the website to apply for Alphaeon. I was told to Google "Alphaeon Credit Card" and I just don't feel comfortable selecting a random website when I'll be providing very private information. I plan to call back, I just haven't had the opportunity due to my busy schedule.
Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. From the walk into the front door to the walk out! They answered all questions with a smile and it was clear that they had full knowledge of the procedure/products I was interested in. Trina was especially helpful and addressed all of my concerns! I will be back!
Literally everything about Calospa was amazing, the staff, customer service, especially the knowledge and standard they held themselves to. I'll be back for future procedures and spa needs. I'll also be referring any of my family or friends who are in need of an amazing spa/plastic surgeon. Dr. Mays was beyond incredible. He's very laid back and super informative! He had an answer for all of my questions.
Dr Mays seemed very caring and knowledgeable.
Trina was highly knowledgeable and professional.
Staff and surgeon were very friendly and put me at ease when I felt nervous.
Considering it was my first surgery ever, I felt that a lot of my unasked questions were answered automatically. What I liked most was that the staff did not make me feel uncomfortable with my indecisiveness or needing to call them for information, they were all very reassuring and helped a lot with making me at ease with my decision. I literally walked out their office, sat in my car for 10mins and they let me come right back in with questions of concern!!
I am always so pleased with my results no matter what I have done. I've had Botox from other providers and it is not even close to what I want. Every single time they just nail it!!!
The doctor understood my situation. Was willing to work with me ! Plus i could tell he was caring and a perfectionist!!!!!! VERY NICE MAN Can't wait to pay this off in about four years so I can come back in and get my breast fixed !
I always see Trina for my Botox. She's very personable. We talk about our kids and life, she makes me feel welcomed and relaxed before the procedure. And any question I have she is willing to answer.
The entire staff was friendly, welcoming and made me feel at ease.
Dr. Mays was extremely helpful in explaining the procedure and what would be best for my body. I came to the office with an idea of what I was wanting but his expertise made me feel comfortable and confident that I wanted to proceed wth surgery.
I didn't have her put much Botox in at all so there really wasn't a difference at all in the way the lines above my lip looked.
I got the results that I was told I would get. I was provided information to do to help my results and it has worked. I was well informed of everything that would be happening before, during, and after.
I love the feel of Calospa. Very clean, everyone was very friendly and just all around nice atmosphere. I have already told several friends to come see dr Mays.
Not only are my legs more cellulite free, but I lost inches off of them with this procedure! Brooke is so personable and job knowledgeable!! She is exceptional at what she does!
Trina was very sweet and attentive. She listened to exactly what my concerns were and gave her professional opinion on best options. I have referred her several times to my friends and family. The results were incredible and exactly what I was hoping for.
The staff and surgeon were both so very nice in understanding what procedures I wanted done. They were able to explain in detail each procedure, the down time and what the results would be for me Very professional and knowledgeable on the procedures. Made me feel vey comfortable and at ease during the consultation.
Brooke makes the procedure and appointment so comfortable and casual. i really appreciate her personality and knowledge. She has such a great personality and "look" for this job. I wouldn't do this with anyone else.
The staff is very professional. The facility is very modern.
All staff are very patient and nice. I've heard good things about the doctors.
Brooke diverted my attention from the procedure which was,at times, uncomfortable. Because of her my procedure was not nearly as painful as it could have been. Thank you Brooke ! Looking forward to more treatments from you. ?
I liked the openness that Dr. Mays provided. I truly felt like he was considerate of my concerns and didn't try to talk me into something I truly didn't need.
Trina was knowledgeable and I felt confident with her as a Botox virgin. Beautiful facility. Loved the results of the procedure. Smooth forehead!!!!
IT IS DIFFICULT FOR A 72 YEAR OLD WOMAN TO FEEL AT EASE IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION BUT EVERYONE WAS SO PROFESSIONAL THAT I FELT AS RELAXED AS POSSIBLE. I APPRECIATE THE STRAIGHT FORWARD AND HONEST EVALUATION OF MY CONDITION. IT WAS 180 DEGREES AWAY FROM MY FIRST CONSULTATION.
I like the professional, yet relaxed atmosphere. Trina was friendly and a great bedside manner and technique. I feel better when I don't see the lines on my forehead that have disappeared!
I was not highly satisfied because of the doctor, but just frustrated in general that I have a cyst on my face. It doesn't matter if another dermatologist or plastic surgeon treats me for this. The problem with a cyst is that it either has to be injected with a steroid, which isn't doing anything for me, leave it alone, which isn't what I want to do, or remove it, which will likely leave a scar. Dr. Mays told me to massage the cyst. I'll probably keep getting kenalpg in it to in the meantime.
there was nothing significantly bad with my experience however this was my first time getting botox and i was in and out of there in 15 mins. I would have liked a little more information regarding the procedure and what to look out for. I had done research prior to this appointment but it is always better to hear straight from a professional rather than the internet.
I felt very comfortable and confident with Brooke and making the decision to proceed with the procedure.
Clinician was very informative and made me feel comfortable. She answered all of my questions thoroughly. The office staff was extremely friendly.
The staff and doctor were extremely friendly. I was very nervous and they made me feel fine. Nurses seem like they really care about my well being.
The nurse who met with me initially was excellent. She was very personable, yet extremely professional as well. I was very comfortable during the entire consultation with Dr. May.
Trina does an excellent job and is very knowledgeable.
I thought everyone was nice, friendly, and knowledgeable. I felt confident with my Dr. After all Caloaesthetics is the best! I wish I had come sooner.


The focus of this article is on the evolution of cultural relations, cooperation and diplomacy that have been developed by Poland in Spain since 1977. The main argument is that contemporary Polish cultural diplomacy is a part of a broader notion, i.e. public diplomacy, which might be observed in the case of Spain. The research questions concern, first, the origin and legal basis of past and present cooperation in cultural affairs between Poland and Spain, and second, the main stages that can be distinguished in bilateral cultural ties. The principal method employed by the author in order to find the answers to these research questions is the analysis of source materials and documents issued by the government of Poland. The article culminates with a concise presentation of conclusions.

Garlic (Alliums Sativum) and Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is hardy perennial of Asiatic origin, belonging to the plant family liliaceae. They are grown in northern Nigeria as medicine for both human and animals. They are primarily used for seasoning and also for its medicinal property. Anti-microbial activities of garlic and ginger were carried out using the following microorganisms: staphylococcus aureus and streptococcus pyogenes.
The media used in culturing them was blood agar. When the organism was at exponential phase of growth, extracts of ginger and garlic were made using decoction method. The extracts was placed according to the two demarcated division made on the plates. And was allowed for 24hrs of incubation, then after that, observation was made from the plates. From the observation, it was discovered that both microorganism were sensitive, but their degree of sensitivity of staphylococcus aureus is slightly more than that of streptococcus pyogenes after sub culturing. Conclusively, we encourage or advise people seriously to go more in adding this species in of their meal. This is because; they contain so many active ingredients, which resist the activities of microorganism.
Anti microbial substances are materials that have activity against bacteria. There are many plant materials that show anti-microbial activity against bacteria. Example includes garlic and ginger. Garlic and ginger are odourferous plants belonging to a plant family lilacace, with their botanical name Alliums Sativum and Zingiber Officinale respectively. They are grown in northern Nigeria as medicine for both human and animals. They are primarily used for seasoning and also for its medicinal property (Yamoda, 1979).
The medicinal potency of garlic and ginger are due to their sulphuric content believed to be responsible for their medicinal property (Blocll et al, 1985). Garlic contains a glycoside, vitamin B, C, and D allisatin II and I. It also contains volatile sulphur oil, which has a vermifugal action (i.e. chemical agent that expels worm).
Anti microbial substance show major and minor similarities and difficult to distinguish except through the use of sensitivity techniques that will show clearly those slightest differences among those substances. Anti microbial activities of garlic and ginger could be assayed using the following microorganisms: Escherichia Coli, Staphylococcus and Streptococcus. This microorganism reacts to the slightest change in their environment, they tend to multiply rapidly in a favourable environment but decline if the environment becomes unfavourable.
Cases of fake drugs abound everywhere in our country today especially in the use of antibiotic. The result has been an increasing level of drug resistance among microorganisms, which were abinitio susceptible to particular antibiotics. Most of these antibiotics have one or more action ingredients, which means that it is easy for microorganism to recognize and destroy or metabolize such active ingredients. However, there are many materials of plant origin that show anti-microbial activity. These materials provide some hope for antibiotic resistance because most of them have many chemical broad sites, which means that it is not easy for microorganism to develop resistance to it easily.
The aim of this work is to study the anti microbial activities of garlic and ginger extract.
1. Measuring of degree of sensitivity of staphylococcus aureus to garlic and ginger extracts respectively.
2. Garlic and ginger extracts mixed together.
Ho Ginger and garlic extracts show anti microbial activity against staphylococcus aureus.
H1 Ginger and garlic extracts do not show anti microbial activity on staphylococcus aureus.
H2 Garlic and ginger extracts mixed show enhanced anti microbial activity against staphylococcus aureus.
This project work will be limited only to anti microbial activity of garlic and ginger extracts against staphylococcus aureus. Respectively, garlic and ginger extracts mixed.
