I ordered Aquamid from an online source. Foolishly I only thought of it as more long lasting than the 3 to 6 months other choices. I had no idea it will last 10 years or longer. Plus I did not inject the product right as I injected just barely under my top layer of skin or lip skin.... Read more

Yes, I am happy with it and have had no major side effects. Obviously, you MUST have it professionally done as mine has lasted for 10 years. BUT, the only down side is that my lips are now fuller and a little less flexible - I used to be a very good amateur flautist and can not now flex my... Read more

spent $600 in Adelaide, AU Updated 2 months ago

I had Aquamid injected in my lips in 2003 by Dr Robert Reed in Adelaide Australia. For the first four years I had no problems, just sometimes if I knocked my lips they seemed painful and I felt that my lips felt harder than I would have liked but aesthetically I wasn't too worried. After... Read more

I had aquamid injected in my naso labial folds four years ago, just 1ml. Everything was fine for four years, the product looked natural although it would sometimes harden. I have no immune problems, I'm fit and healthy, but six months ago the aquamid started to become inflamed on the... Read more

spent $4,000 in Cheeks Created 1 year ago

I had Aquamid injections in my cheeks every six months over a two year period . My dermatologist uses a dental block, and some local, so the whole experience is pain free. I have never had any adverse reaction or infection. After the procedure I don't touch the area or wear make up or shower for... Read more

I had a very small amount to my nose from a doctor near oxford street, sydney (dr hkeik) - he was VERY sterile (e.g. sterile gloves / didn't touch my nose at all etc.) - I haven't had any adverse reactions at all. I made sure I didn't touch or wash my nose for a week and put some... Read more

I have had aquamid in the lips and for cheek augmentation- Personally i wouldn't waste my time with semi-permanent fillers it ends up costing a fortune and the results just don't last. Aquamid is used less and less here in Australia. I have been lucky and had no adverse reactions at any... Read more

spent $2,700 in Melbourne Updated 1 year ago

I had Aquamid injected into my lips and wrinkles around my mouth. After a couple of months, there was still no difference. It just looked the same as before so I made another follow up appointment and paid full price again. This was done over a week ago and again there is no difference... Read more
