Q. I was all set to order an AOGNY skin tightening machine on Amazon, but found that it’s “currently unavailable” and “We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.” What a disappointment! Any idea what’s going on?

A. The machine is still available, but the AOGNY brand name has been discontinued. As good as the product is, it is pretty easy to see why the name AOGNY was not a great fit for English-speaking markets. It is hard to pronounce, sounds unappealing when spoken and resembles a word that means excruciating pain! I never cared for the awkward name AOGNY and hated typing it out, but given I have been delighted with the product and the results I was still happy to spread the word. (I even received some unsolicited compliments about my skin a few days ago, which is always gratifying.)
