Tonette BowenNuvell Clinics - Scottsdale

Just had my 5th CellSound procedure. So far, I'm very pleased with the results. Have lost several centimeters all across my belly area. Initially, the visceral fat was as hard as a rock and made eating unenjoyable and painful; not any more! Am looking forward to my next treatments and the long-term benefits of the procedure. My technician, Chloe, is AWESOME. Very caring, knowledgeable and pleasant. Office staff friendly and efficient. I'm going to be sad when my treatments are done; it's just so relaxing.
