When will I see results?

Clients are all different and respond differently to the treatments, however, after the 1^st session there is a comfortable sensation in the skin, the client feels that something was done to the skin, but true results will only show after the 3^rd session.

How long will the results last?

Our cells regenerate every 28 days and “pushes” the dead layer of cells to the surface of the skin. For optimal and long-lasting results, a maintenance program of 1 x per month is recommended.
