Just visited the office for my upper forehead Botox. I go to Stella Abayeva, she is absolutely amazing. Never a single bruise. She knows exactly what you need without doing "too much". Never tried to sell me a service, concentrating on areas that "require" help. She is a true professional. Thank you Stella for making me look young.
