Ovo Medi Spa Medical Director

Meet Doctor Jimmy Kwok, MD

Ovo's Story

Dr. Kwok has a passion for helping members of the community and beyond. As a physician, he saw the needs and demands of people like you who want to look and feel confident. Launching Ovo was the right thing to do. Dr. Kwok established Ovo to help you be the best version of yourself at any age. Many aesthetic providers only “mask” the aging process; here at Ovo, Dr. Kwok believes in treating the inner structure of the skin to delay the aging process as well as correcting the signs of aging. By combining therapies, you can expect to look and feel more youthful.

Testimonials

Dr. Kwok is exceptionally gifted in his cosmetic art. I have been to many places and he really is in a league of his own. Women my age crave a cosmetic doctor who truly understand us and provides great work. He does. Very happy. Very personal service. I highly recommend him.

SARAH

If I were to start my own medi spa, I would purchase the Fotona Laser. It is BRILLIANT! I have done vaginal rejuvenation, hair removal, and 4D laser facelift. No other laser tightens the face from inside of the mouth. This truly enhances the tightening capabilities of the face. The results are far superior than any other laser I have tried for skin tightening. The best part is that it is painless, no downtime, and results are guaranteed!

JANICE

I found my initial injections with Dr. Kwok to be very reassuring, he is a physician who takes his time to explain safety procedures. He followed up with me 2 weeks later to make sure that the results met my expectations. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a physician who pays attention to details.

ALBERT

Wonderfully professional crew, this upscale medi spa has some of the best high end equipment to do the job, the Doctor and techs here really understand the science behind what they are doing to produce results. They take the time to explain and make sure you are very comfortable before and throughout the process. They pay attention to details and take the time to ensure results! The location and set up is really nice as well!! Bright beautiful and clean! I would come again as I trust them and their advice. My friends have come as well for more intense procedures and she even said it is so worth it! Many options to choose from to do what is right for you. Check it out!!!!

Angelena

I was really impressed with the cleanliness and sanitary practice at Ovo! All of the staff were friendly and professional; I had Vicki as my tech and she was knowledgeable, efficient and really made me feel comfortable with my procedure. The techs at Ovo were so honest and would never recommend services that I don't actually need. 100% would recommend!

Joanna

A wonderful experience of talented experienced staff, the highest quality technology —- in beautiful point grey neighborhood. Doctor Kwok has vast knowledge, care, and compassion.

Karen

treatment with zero downtime! My complexion is notably brighter, plumper and contoured. Even my pigmentation has lightened. Highly skilled technicians and a doctor to stand behind all of their results-driven treatments. A very beautiful, clean, comfortable and private setting with state-of-the-art technology. I’m looking forward to getting regular facials and their Fotona laser treatments. Lastly, the Ovo team does not use any sales tactics to push unnecessary services or products, which is really refreshing! They gauge and accept your personal comfort level with their wide range of treatments and advise you accordingly. Even my mom, who accompanied me and is normally skeptical made an appointment.

Christine

The Red Carpet Facial was wonderful... my skin looked brighter, firmer, and felt fresh. It is a great maintenance treatment. Thank you!
