So today we're here getting laser treatment to fix something that has gone wrong with Blueprint. So with Blueprint, we are methodical and we are safe. Yet even with our safety practices, sometimes things do go wrong because we're out in the frontier doing things that we're trying to explore the boundaries. And so one thing we were doing on skin rejuvenation was using a 5.32nanometer laser. It's a specific laser for a specific purpose. And we're using it on my neck and my face. And on my neck we did frequency that was too much and it caused hypopigmentation. So change the coloring, like a spectrum speckle on my neck. And so we're now correcting that mistake. We're using this excimer laser. It's a different wavelength, 308 nanometers. And it's going to take somewhere between 10 and 30 treatments to get my skin pigmentation back to where it was in normal. And so what I'll do is I'll step into this, I'll hit the yellow light and then it will be 20 seconds of exposure. This is my first treatment. I'll need to do two treatments per week for roughly four to six weeks.
