Pretty Please Aesthetics is the Sacramento clinic reviewed here, and it sits sixth in this guide's order. Its own website, www.prettypleaseaesthetics.com, lists 6 treatment types.

Sixth on a shared count of 6

Under the label "Treatment types listed on the clinic website (of 8)", the highest count comes first, and Aesthetic Envy holds that spot with 8 on www.aestheticenvy.com. Younger You Aesthetics matches it at 8, according to youngeryouaesthetics.com.

Pretty Please Aesthetics is level at 6 with Medspa of Sacramento, which lists 6 at medspaofsacramento.com. My Vanity Aesthetics also lists 6, at www.myvanityaesthetics.com.

What suits a simple case, and what strains

The listing at local.yobi.com says Pretty Please Aesthetics offers Botox, dermal fillers and laser hair removal, and the listing names one more service. For one clear goal, that is a useful starting map.

A complicated case is harder. You may want several of those at once, and they may compete for the same calendar or the same area of your face. A listing cannot sort that out. Ask the clinic how it would order the work.

Laser hair removal is on the list, so two outside pages can help you prepare questions. Start with WebMD's page on laser hair removal benefits, side effects and cost, then read the American Society of Plastic Surgeons page on laser hair removal. For any clinic, the Medical Board of California's consumer information page is another outside reference.

The case for and against

Pros:

• It has a 4.9 rating across 401 reviews, as reported by local.yobi.com.
• The listing at local.yobi.com names four services, including Botox and laser hair removal.

Cons:

• Three clinics list more types: Aesthetic Envy, Younger You Aesthetics and One Med Spa.
• A rating shows how past visitors scored the clinic. It does not show how the clinic handles a case like yours.

How it compares with longer menus

When goals overlap, a wider menu can mean fewer clinics to juggle. Three clinics list more: the two tied at the top, and One Med Spa, which lists 7 at www.onemedspa.co.

Pretty Please Aesthetics sits just below them. If your list is short and falls inside what it names, that gap may not matter.

One plan or several visits

Bring your full list of treatments and goals. Ask Pretty Please Aesthetics which parts it can do in one plan, and which it would split up. Compare that answer with a second clinic.
