The read

Dr Pier Luca Bencini founded the Italian Laser Academy of Dermatology and has led ICLID for over thirty years, one of Europe's earliest centres to apply laser technology to skin. The bench runs deep, Sciton HALO and HERO, Ultherapy PRIME, RevLite and a dedicated dye laser, and ICLID is the only site in Italy running the Sciton HERO. That completeness across scarring, pigment and laxity is echoed in a 4.6 Google rating.
