BOTOX Treatment

I recently had the pleasure of receiving a Botox treatment from Jasmine, a skilled and professional nurse, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the moment I arrived, she made me feel comfortable and at ease. Jasmine is incredibly gentle and thorough, ensuring that I was fully informed and relaxed throughout the entire process. Her attention to detail and precision gave me confidence in her expertise, and the results were exactly what I was hoping for. I highly recommend Jasmine to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, caring, and skilled provider.

Highly Reccomend

I have been seeing Dr. Pirani for a couple years now for fillers and I cannot come up with any complaints. It’s always a pleasant experience when I go to his office from the results of the fillers, to my follow up appointments and finally to the interactions I have with his front desk staff. I also had a laser skin treatment done that I unfortunately suffered an allergic reaction to and his office followed up with me everyday until I recovered! I highly recommend seeing Dr. Pirani if you are interested in fillers. He is professional, knowledgeable and doesn’t upsell you on something that is unrealistic.
