“Went For It - San Francisco, CA”

Wow, looking at my pics is a bit of a bummer. I spent too much money and although *I* see the difference, not a single person has commented. Aside from my sister, who saw me when I was swollen two days afterward, and said "What did you do to your face?!" I think I had an unrealistic idea of how much better this would make me look. I had a vague idea that this could 'fix' how... more

“Great Bedside Manner, Sets Realistic...”

I looked tired all the time and thought I needed filler in my smile lines to fix it. Dr M showed me how a bit of filler applied to the cheek areas could give that visual lift I needed, without looking like Lisa Rinna. Love the results! I look rested and not fake. more

“A True Artist - San Francisco, CA”

I started looking more tired and "older" even when I felt great. My under eye area was sunken and bluish no matter how much concealer I used. After months of research, I decided to try a filler for my tear trough areas. Time and again during my research, Dr. M kept turning up as the most experienced in this procedure. The fact that he's an MD and board certified facial... more

I went in for some filler around my nose. He made some recommendations which were brillant. Couldn't be happier. more

“Under Eye Hollows/Restylane in San...”

I had Restyland injected to make my hollow, dark undereye circles less apparent. I went to a Dr. I'd heard good things about in SF. I have very pale skin and thought I would get enormous bruises, but I was suprised to only get a purple mark near the site of one of the injections that faded to a red mark in a few days and is now (3 weeks later) almost gone. The filler felt really weird... more

“Acne Scars - So Far So Good”

I have had several types of lasor treatments performed to help acne scars (Fraxel, NLight, Microderm) and nothing has really helped the deeper flat scars.My Dr. suggested fillers and so I purchased a .5 CC vial of Restylane an more

“Restylane for Uneven Lips & Very...”

Immediate results-i guess, I mean u definitely see the swelling ha!I have uneven lips and very deep creases under my eyes and I'm only 21. No concealer can cover it. I've had it since I was 12 or 13.What can I do???? I've tried massaging and putting ice. more

“Restylane & Juvederm Fillers Are...”

I had one syringe of Restylane injected into my nasolabial folds. This was on top of one syringe of Juvederm two weeks prior. (The Juvederm wasn't quite doing the trick, but is more expenseive than the Restylane, so my doctor & I decided to try the combo to save me $200.) Anyway, so far so good.I love the result but I'm aware that s more

“Thrilled with Restylane”

I am 61 years old and had never had any procedures done to my face. I decided to brave it and have my marionette lines and nasolabial folds filled in. I am very afraid of needles but decided to brave it. The Dr. had me put a numbing cream on my face just before the procedure.It was a mild discomfort but nthing more than that. It's now been a little over a month and I'm thrilled with the... more

“Restylane Helps Me Looks Like I'm...”

I've had great results with fillers over the last three years. I was very ill in 2004 and lost over 30 pounds (which I did not need to lose). At any rate, it was after that I decided to try the fillers as the huge weight loss left me with serious nasolabia folds. My dermatologist (who I believe are the best trained in fillers even over plastic surgeons)is very conservative and often he's had... more

“Restylane - $1,000 for Less Than a...”

Restylane was a waste of money I didn’t have to waste. It lasted about 3 weeks and then was gone completely. I had tried it a few months before and that lasted a total of a month and a half – a lot less than they say it will last (minimum 3 months). I had Restylane in my lips and the hollows under my eyes last time. The lip results were gone in about a week. That’s about how long my... more
