1st International Symmetria Meeting, Athens: Wendy Lewis speaks about the latest advances in facial rejuvenation and anti-aging

"While I was managing a prestigious cosmetic surgery practice in NY, I found myself getting calls from friends and family of patients asking for recommendations in other cities because they trusted me. One very distraught woman was having a difficult time after a mid-facelift gone awry, and asked for my help in locating a surgeon to correct it. I searched all over the country and found her the team that developed the technique. One week after her operation, she called to tell me she was back to her old self. It felt great to help someone through such an awful and frightening experience. She suggested the idea of starting an impartial consulting service, and she still sends clients to me now."
