Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  He tekau mā rua, neke atu rānei o ngā taputapu whakarewa e whakarārangitia ana i runga i te ripanga e tata ana ki te moenga. He rite ki te mea i whakamahia pea e Frankenstein ki te kaki o tana kararehe. Ka tīmata ahau ki te māharahara. He aha te ao i uru ai ahau ki roto? Ko te ruma ma ma tonu e whakanui ana i te whakaaro kei te haere ahau ki te pokanga nui. Engari ehara ahau i te mea. Kei konei ahau ki te whakamātau i te maimoatanga kanohi tino pōhēhē i pā ki te tirohanga ataahua: ko te maimoatanga kanohi hauwhā. I whakaekea i te Hale Clinic papai i Rānana me ētahi atu whare hauora puta noa i te motu, ko nga whatu whakamataku e rere ana he konganuku e rere ana i nga oro rereke ka patua, ka whakaohooho. Ka whakawhiwhia a Marianne ki te maimoatanga tapawhā. Ka whakanohoia ki ngā wāhi motuhake o te mata - te kaki, te roro, te uma, me te taha o te kanohi - ka kīia e whakaiti ana i te kiri e pakaru ana, ka whakakore i ngā porohita pango, ka whakaiti i te āhua o ngā kiri, ka whakaongaonga i te collagen. Ko ngā hua o te whakamātautau, ka āhua taitamariki ake, ka mārama ake, ka mārama ake hoki te āhua o tō kanohi. E kī ana ētahi he rite tonu ki te Botox kāore i te werohia. Ka puta mai te maimoatanga i te U.S. - kei hea atu? E kī ana ngā kaitautoko ko ngā ngaru oro o ngā kōhao e wiri ana, e haere ana ki roto rawa i te tinana i ngā ara pūngao, e pā ana ki te tinana o te tangata, e tae ana ki ngā wāhi kāore i te māmā te uru atu". I tēnei wā, he kōrero noa iho a New Age. Te āhua nei kāore he tohu pūtaiao e taea ai e ngā whatukuhu te whakaiti, te whakapaipai, te okioki rānei i a koe. He āhua pōhēhē - te momo mea e mahia ana e te hunga e pai ana ki ngā panpipes me ngā purapura hemp. He nui ake i te kotahi miriona ngā kaimahi o te ahumahi whakapaipai o Ingarangi, ā, ko te £ 17 piriona te uara. He pai ake ki ahau te mahi kanohi mā te peeling, kaua mā ngā konganuku kē. Engari ahakoa he ruarua pea taku whakaaro, kei te 37 hoki oku tau, kei te hiahia ahau ki te whakamatau i nga mea katoa. I roto i ngā tau kua taha ake nei, kua tīmata te puta mai o ngā rārangi mata i runga i taku rae, ā, kua mārama ake taku mata, kua pupuhi, kua puhi hoki. Ka whakamārama ahau i ēnei mea katoa ki te kaihautū, ki a Samara Reid, he atawhai ia. 'Ko te mea whakamiharo mo enei kanohi ko te whakapai ake i te ahua o te kiri, engari me te whakaora i te take o te raru,' e kii ana ia. 'Ki te mea ko koe...
I whakamātau a Marianne Power i te kanohi o te whatitiri i te Hale Clinic i Rānana. Ka whakamahi i ngā whatīanga e rerekē ana ngā oro i te wā e patua ana. Ka mea i muri mai he nui ake te kiri o tana kiri, he mawhero, ehara i te mea ma.
