Had my first appointment today with Carina who was very professional and explained in detail what my options were to have a number of my blemishes removed. I left very grateful after having a very successful treatment and will definitely be back for more. Highly recommend Carina, her salon is very private and most importantly her customer service was exemplary. Janice
