October 2019I live in Las Vegas and I received a liposuction, a chin implant, facial and neck threading, with botox and juvederm all in the same session. The price was great as well as the results. I am preparing to see him again this time for a tummy tuck and a refresh of the other services provided as before. I am working my schedule around to see him again sometime in May of 2022.
