The awarding of final prizes will take place on 16/11/2022 in the presence of a notary or officer of the relevant Chamber of Commerce. Prizes can also be awarded via videoconference.

 

A jury appointed by Promoter Company, at its sole and absolute discretion, will evaluate the Documents that have been submitted using the following criteria:

 

• Evidence of the efficacy of the treatment on the customer/patient
• Careful use of icoone equipment
• Moreover, for the category “Fastest result (days/sessions)”: assessment of the number of sessions in which the result was achieved (on a like-for-like basis in terms of the quality of the result, the result which required the least number of sessions and/or was achieved in the fewest number of days will win);
• Furthermore, for the category “Your most satisfied customer”: novelty of the application shown and emotional feedback from a customer, explaining how icoone improved their life.

After examining all valid Documents the jury will decide on the final rankings, awarding a prize to the top two
(2) entries for each of the following award categories:

 

1. Best result – Facial treatments
2. Best result – Body treatments;
3. Best result – Medical treatments;
4. Fastest result (days/sessions)
