| The whole thing took about 10 minutes and it was great, really relaxing. The idea of being able to recline on my sofa and have my husband here during the treatment is far more appealing than going into a clinic. |

| I am left with a subtle change to my eyes and forehead that left me looking like I was at age 24. Although the physical changes to my face are subtle, my attitude and approach to my beauty regiment have changed dramatically- I wear less foundation, I feel confident to emphasize my eyes with makeup, and I can wear my hair back from my face- but most importantly, I smile more! |
