“Already after the first treatment, my skin looked more beautiful, visible pores were reduced, and my face looked fresher and tighter.” After the third treatment, I stopped wearing foundation! The face, now a few months after mesotherapy, has a youthful glow, and the skin is smooth and soft to the touch. The most important thing for me is that it is no longer rough and dry like before. This is one small victory for my skin which has been dehydrated for decades. And now, when I turn forty, it looks better than when I was young!”
