I have tried everything to get rid of my unwanted facial hair. I was teased growing up due to my…read morefacial hair and being a young lady. I started bleaching it, then bleaching didn't work. I started using hair removal creams then the creams didn't work. I tried waxing but I would break out terribly. At age 12 I had multiple sessions of laser hair removal and this totally made the situation worse because they shave the area to be treated before the laser hair removal treatments. Since I had this done on my face I then had to start shaving my face daily. As I continued to shave my face daily the hair continued to grow in darker and thicker. I had such bad hair growth that I would have a five o'clock shadow on my face by mid-day. I thought this would be the story of my life. Wake up every morning and shave my face, which made me feel very unfeminine. I had truly given up on all methods of hair removal. I would prey every night that God would take the hair off of my face. Believe me I would do anything to not have to shave my face again. I am now 25 years old and have being dealing with unwanted facial hair for more than half of my life. I went into Elan and spoke with Dr, Andrew and of course with this being such an emotional thing for a young lady like myself I began to cry as I told her all the things I have tried to get rid of my facial hair. Dr. Andrew is such a wonderful compassionate doctor and person that she really wanted to help me feel better about myself and said she wanted to help me get rid of my facial hair. I must admit that with all my failed attempts I was skeptical about the Trios IPL hair removal treatments, but I had tried everything so I decided to try one more thing. LET ME JUST SAY THIS IS A MIRACLE MACHINE AND DR. ANDREW IS AN ANGEL!!! After only one treatment I noticed a huge improvement. I had many areas on my face no longer growing hair and some of the worse areas began to lighten. I have now had multiple sessions and all my unwanted facial hair is GONE...YES GONE I COULD NOT BELIEVE MY EYES AND I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER I DO NOT HAVE TO SHAVE MY FACE ANYMORE. I recommend IPL hair removal treatments to everyone who has unwanted hair and I definitely recommend Dr. Andrew, she is the answer to my prayers. I never thought anything or anyone could help me and my unwanted facial hair, but Dr. Andrew, the staff at Elan and the best invention in the world IPL hair removal have saved me from my unwanted facial hair. I can truly be the strong, confident, beautiful woman I was meant to be and thanks to team Elan I am happier that I have ever been in my life. I wish I would have found Elan sooner. Since I was so happy with my hair removal results I tried the HCG diet at Elan. I have always been heavy and never thought I could be thin. I thought this was just the way I was, but I was wrong. Once I partnered with Jami, the health and wellness coach at Elan, I went from weighing 225 pounds to an amazing 165. I feel great. I am in the best shape of my life thanks to the help of Jami, she truly is there to help you succeed with your weight loss goals. I RECOMMEND ELAN TO EVERYONE!!! ELAN HAS CHANGED MY LIFE AND I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER. THEY MADE MY UNWANTED FACIAL HAIR DISAPPEAR LIKE MAGIC AND THEY HAVE HELPED ME GET TO A GREAT HEALTH WEIGHT. I FEEL AMAZING. THANK YOU LADIES YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE. I AM AN ELAN PATIENT FOR LIFE!!!

I've lost 85+ pounds in 7 Months…read more Motivation - I turned 30 and I realized that it was time to turn my life around. I heard of other people using the program with great results so I called and talked to Jamie. Calling and making an appointment was probably the hardest part because it became real that I had a weight problem. After I started, I saw the results. My motivation came from wanting to get rid of the old person and to start living healthy. One on One Relationship- When I got started, having the 1 on 1 was important because my counselor told me I could call or email anytime with any questions. Having that person right there for all your questions was important because I knew I had help. Ease of program- I'm a pretty lazy person, but since the 5-1 was super easy, I didn't have to think. All I had to do was stay on program and the body started to do the rest. After I started to see results now I'm more active and started to do physical activities (by choice!).

We approached Cenegenics with a lot of skepticism as you do most wellness programs given the…read moreindustry reputation. However, after listening to Dr. Campion during the introduction, a lot of what he said started to make sense. While the initial evaluation was pricey, we both felt it would be a good investment for our future well-being to see where we were on the 'healthy' scale. Dr. Campion outlined areas for immediate attention and others that would see benefit over time. It wasn't easy work for the first 8 weeks, but we knew the changes would be worthwhile. Now 8 months later, we have seen such an improvement in our health (blood work, stamina, mental state and our physique), our diet (avoiding some foods immediately makes you feel so much better) and our exercise program (we are both able to do more and enjoy it more). Having put our well-being in Dr. Campions hands was the best step we have ever taken towards protecting our future lives for both us and our family.

For years I have gone up and down 40 to 50 pounds but have never been able to keep the weight I…read morelose off. Last year at my annual physical, I asked my doctor if she could refer me to a doctor that might be able to help me lose weight and keep it off. She referred me to Dr. Gail Altschuler. It took me three months to call but I did finally go in for an initial consultation. When I met Dr. Altschuler, I found an immediate connection with someone who understood my challenges and who seemed genuinely interested in my life problems related to my weight. I made the decision in May 2008 to go on Dr. Gail's program and I am glad I did. Since May, I have lost 50 pounds, 10 inches in my waist and feel better than I have in years. As a manager of 8 people with an extremely busy schedule traveling all over the country, Dr. Altschuler has helped me manage all types of social eating scenarios. Now, I feel I can manage through all kinds of tough eating situations myself and I believe I can do it for the rest of my life! Thank you Gail for showing me the way and I look forward to years of healthy living. By the way, as the nine months on the program progressed, I have felt better and better about my physical self and now I am running 20 miles a week and will be running in my first 10K in years next month.

I needed to know how to eat better, and how to have a better relationship with food. After a few hundred dollars, I had gained five pounds, was less confident, felt like an idiot, and had to stop because it was too expensive. I've since gained forty pounds, and now I'm afraid of dieting. My concerns were ignored, my personal goals glossed over, and I never got any nutritional advice. I was left afraid to go back to my old diet, because she told me that I was destroying my metabolism with it, but with no idea how to start a new one. At the outset, I made it clear that my finances were limited, but that quickly gave way to expensive sessions every week that I couldn't afford, and finally had to give up on. It pains me to leave a negative review like this, because as a person, Toni is very nice. But I have to be honest. I spent several hundred dollars, only to end up the fattest I've been in my life, frustrated, and at my lowest point. Not only did I not get healthier, I'm so unsure and afraid of dieting now that I don't know if I ever will.
