Very impressed from start to finish! Full breakdown of what was involved, test treatment to ensure suitability, all questions answered fully and in an understadable way and super facilities for treatment and waiting. The treatment was very effective, so much so that I only needed three treatments instead of the suggested four that I might have needed. Overjoyed with the results will be visiting again for other treatment!!!
I visited Discover laser for some facial work with Dr Montero. I have to say what an amazing experience from start to finish. I arrived to be greeted by such kind and caring staff and a wonderful latte at the start of my treatment. Dr Montero was just fabulous. Very informative and experienced. Explained the full procedure and what my results would be like in the end. A true professional. Looking forward to my next visit!
