Top Med Spas in Livermore — All 10 Ranked

How the CiteLocal Reputation Score is calculated

Ranked by a confidence-adjusted rating, not by raw stars. A 5.0 from two reviews is not evidence of a better business than a 4.9 from 844 — so each rating is pulled toward the corpus average in proportion to how little evidence backs it, then reported as the lower bound of its credible interval. Review volume earns position rather than merely failing to lose it.

raw      = (g_rating·g_reviews + y_rating·y_reviews) / (g_reviews + y_reviews)
adjusted = (v·raw + m·C) / (v + m)
score    = adjusted − Z·σ / √(v + m)

v — reviews backing the rating

per business

C — corpus mean rating

4.8

m — prior strength (corpus median reviews)

57

σ — corpus rating spread

0.237

Z — one-sided 90% bound

1.282

businesses in the corpus

What this ranking does and does not measure

• Ratings only. This measures public review reputation. It does not assess medical quality, injector credentials, physician oversight or safety record — so it is not a clinical recommendation.
• Real data only. Businesses with no rating on file are excluded rather than guessed at, and no score is ever estimated or interpolated.
• Coverage varies. Where no Yelp listing matched, the score rests on Google alone and the entry says so.
• Nobody pays to appear. Placement cannot be bought, and no business in this ranking is a CiteLocal customer. Ordering is produced entirely by the formula above.
