I have been seeing Carrol for a few months now, and I would absolutely recommend her and her services. She is an electrologist, esthetician and acupuncturist who performs facial rejuvenation. Her background in hair and skin care is extensive and I trust her opinion in these areas implicitly. Carrol is the only electrologist, who suspected my hair problem was more hormonal and suggested some other tests that detected the problem. Now for the first time in years, I am finally seeing results from my treatments.
Carrol’s office is professional, private and conveniently located in Montclair. She is not only warm and friendly, but she genuinely cares for her clients. I can’t recommend her enough.

A Current Affair is a warm and welcoming setting for health and beauty treatments. Carol is a master of acupuncture, electrolisis, micro current and facials (and probably much more, but this is what I have taken advantage of). Based on my experience and that of others, I know that she takes into account the patient/clients' needs and interests and develops in concert with the client a personalized treatment plan. This approach, in addition to her professionalism, have made me a very happy client! I highly recommend her to everyone!

Five Star Treatment!

Carrol has been treating me for almost a year. She is conservative with the electrolysis and I have had no reactions to it. I have also used her for acupuncture for TMJ which has helped my pain tremendously. She is kind and caring and listens to what her clients need and want. The treatment plan is fair and practical and meets my needs. I highly recommend this salon for any of your electrolysis and acupuncture needs. Thanks Carrol

I was traveling in the bay area and wanted to have a facial. I couldn't get an appointment in my hotel so I took a chance and visited A Current Affair. I loved the atmosphere of the office, so welcoming! Carrol took the time to ask detailed questions about my skin and the kind of results I was looking for in a facial. It was the BEST facial I ever had, and I've had many! Additionally, I was had a sinus headache that day and Carrol performed acupuncture and my headache was gone!. It was completely painless. I left feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated! My only problem is that I don't live in the bay area, but you can bet when I return, I'll be making another trip to see Carrol at A Current Affair.

Electrolysis - NOT HERE!!!

I'm sorry to report that this electrologist fried my follicles and consequently scarring occurred which took months to heal.



She also claimed that the areas I wanted to work on were not as dark as I thought and therefore not a problem, but tried to convince me to have work done on other areas that I thought were ok and didn't want to touch.



I had previously been to better electrologists and knew not to go back to this one. I have since had better experiences with other professionals.

I have been in practice for 14 years. I work conservatively with low currents which are raised in tiny increments over time. This allows the skin time to acclimate, while slowly reaching the most effective level for achieving permanency. Occasionally, a small reaction is observed, as everyone's skin is different, however, it is immediately addressed and adjustments are quickly put in place. I find it interesting that someone has chosen to make these false accusations under a fabricated identity. When you are telling the truth there is no need to hide. This was never a client of mine.

This listing has been claimed by a business representative.

Relief from Migraines!

I am so grateful to have been referred to Carol's acupuncture office for my migraine headaches. I was actually experiencing a mild migraine when I arrived for my first appointment, but to my amazement, it was gone before my

appointment had ended. Carol's style is relaxed and friendly. The atmosphere of her office is very calming and I love the sound of her bamboo water fountain.



For years I had been having at least one migraine headache a week. Carol scheduled me for two treatments the first and second week, and one treatment the third through the fifth week. Now after five weeks, I still have not had even one migraine. But if I do, I know there is a relaxing atmosphere at Carols office where I can treat my migraine without having to rely on heavy medications. I'll take acupuncture over medications any day!
