This is covered under "Beneficial Afflictions", Powers p. 40. Basically, if the GM decides that an Affliction is purely good, and no one would ever want to resist it, they can declare it requires a successful HT roll to get it, with duration equal to margin of success. If the Affliction is modified by Malediction (which it sounds like this really should be), then with a beneficial Affliction the target can choose to waive their resistance roll, in which case the duration is strictly based on the user's margin of success.
