I had a stem cells injection in my face and Botox with Dr. Mario Goisis at Quironsalud and it was amazing. My friend Areej has introduced me to the clinic. It was my first time I do the procedure- the result -I look at least 5 years younger and my scar looks much better ❤️. My next session is in August. See you soon Dr. Mario and the full crew. Love you 🫶🏻
