Dr. Anna Can Make You Look Like Your Snap Chat

Dr. Anna Baker, DOM, invites you to join her interactive anti-aging seminars via Zoom on July 12 and 20, both at 1:30 p.m. She will showcase her Faces by Dr. Anna acupuncture facelift and her muscle retightening Pearl Cream by Dr. Anna, both of which can make you look like your Snapchat filter pictures. Please contact the Pearl Cream by Dr. Anna store to access the meeting ID number. If you cannot attend either Zoom seminar live, please let Dr. Anna know, and she will send you a link to a copy.

Dr. Anna performs a unique type of acupuncture facelift that she invented. The muscles of the face and neck are progressively retightened to retrace the steps that aging took. An initial package of 10 treatments is required, and the results last for 18 months before you will need a one-treatment touchup to maintain the lift.

In these seminars, Dr. Anna will show photographed results on people of all ages. She will also discuss her proprietary Pearl Cream by Dr Anna that offers the same muscle retightening as her acupuncture facelift in a slower, more gradual process. Her Pearl Cream is an anti-aging serum made from real pearls and Chinese herbs without any preservatives. Pearl Cream by Dr. Anna is also available as a muscle tightening body lotion, a men’s anti-aging line and a sports performance line.

Location: 2721 Mall Dr., Sarasota. Store hours: Monday–Friday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. To access the meeting ID, call 941-921-2662. For more information, visit https://facesbydranna.com/ or https://pearlcreambydranna.com/
