“Micaela is an absolute Gem. Not only have my problematic wrinkles disappeared completely, but she followed up often to make sure I was doing well. She’s extremely knowledgeable about her products and was able to answer all of my questions and reassure any anxieties. The convenience of my experience was unmatched, as she came right to my apartment. She’s candid, professional, quick and painless. I’m enamored with my results, and I’m now getting carded again - ha! I cannot recommend Micaela more.”
