NEWPORT, CALIFORNIA: 'America's Got Talent' Season 18 continues to fascinate audiences around the nation with multiple stirring performances. The viewers can expect only level-up acts featuring contestants of all ages vying for the $1 million prize.

The upcoming episode promises to keep the viewers on the edge of their seats as they will meet facial yoga expert Koko Hayashi. She will show judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, and Sofia Vergara how facial yoga could be a natural alternative to plastic surgery.

Who is Koko Hayashi?

Koko was born and raised in Japan before moving to California. She went to Hokkaido Oasa High School. However, soon after completing her graduation, Koko joined a corporate company in Tokyo. Five years later, Koko completed her MBA in Entrepreneurship/Entrepreneurial Studies from The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School. She started a business but it eventually failed. She then went back to Japan for her corporate job.

Koko gradually developed an interest in the Face Yoga Method, originally created by Fumiko Takatsu. She started teaching in 2018 after practicing for more than a decade. Koko believes in the power of natural methods and uses her knowledge of facial muscles to activate and lift them with non-invasive tools. She currently works at Koko Face Yoga. She is also the CEO & founder of Mirai Clinical. Koko loves to share her years-long practice with others so that everyone can achieve a radiant glow without undergoing any procedures. She also worked as a yoga instructor in different institutes. Koko holds a CIDESCO license, one of the most prestigious qualifications for aesthetics and beauty therapy in the world. Notably, Koko has appeared on shows such as 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians', 'Good Morning America', and 'Shark Tank' to bring more awareness to Face Yoga.
