She is a very knowledgeable therapist. Oh wow what a fabulous treatment I had with Roseanne today. Although the Hifu facial is a little uncomfortable, Roseanne was excellent, explaining the whole process. She was extremely knowledgeable and put me at ease. I can see the results already. I’ll definitely be back. I had my first treatment of aqualyx on my stomach area and found the treatment perfect. There was little to no pain and sapphire was really helpful when answering my questions and gave really good advice and service. I would definitely recommend this clinic for treatments.

This time around I had the pleasure of having Diana as my therapist and she was amazing. She explained everything in a simple and detailed way, allowed me to feel part of my treatment, recommended additional treatments with no pressure, and made me feel really at home.
When you are getting these kind of treatments it is very personal and you need to feel comfortable with your therapist and feel they know what they are doing.
Well my treatments were done over 2 plus hours and Diana really showed her expertise in the business of beauty. Sharing some of her previous experience and making me feel even more at ease.
Vivo has great prices and amazing people. In a neat, clean and welcoming space.
Highly recommended.
Thanks for everything Diana, I’ll be back again soon :)
