“Botox to Masseter Muscle - La Jolla, CA”

Experience pretty good, injected near jaw line Day of injection- no pain during injection- KEY IS TO ICE WHILE IN LOBBY, WHILE IN EXAM ROOM, immediately after injection, and exiting doc office!

“Botox and Headaches - San Diego, CA”

I got botox on my forehead and was very pleased to find that it has helped my headaches/migraines a lot. My headaches are generally focused on my forehead and eyes. If my headaches frequently began in the back of my head, I have no doubt that I would be getting the shots back there too. The studies say that botox only helps people who have chronic migraines but my experience tells me otherwise... more

“Great Experience and Results! First...”

This was my first Botox experience and I'm beyond thrilled with the results. I'm in my early 30s and was just starting to notice my first frown lines. What bothered me more then the lines themselves however was the lumpy appearance that had developed between my eyes that made me appear tense even at rest. It took about two days for me to see the results and now I have no visible lines or lumps... more

“Botox Takes Care of Wrinkles Like...”

I could never spend money on wrinkle creams knowing Botox exists. For wrinkles, there is nothing more effective out there, and if well done, results can be natural and last months. It is skill-dependent, so be very careful who you allow to inject you. I wish I started using Botox in my 30's because it has the added advantage of preventing deeper creases. It's a fantastic discovery in the world... more

“Botox and Juvederm - San Diego, CA”

I've had both previously. Never had any issues with either. my first juverderm injections were about 4 years ago and have only had botox regularly since. Until this past Tuesday I had both. I do recall mild botox headaches in the past. This time I experienced some severe neck pain two days after both botox and juvederm injections. That is how I came across this website. I wondered if the botox... more

“Botox Stopped Working - San Diego, CA”

I had Botox three times with great results, but the fourth time - nothing. It simply stopped working. My dermatologist - board certified, very reputable - invited me into his private office and called Allergan's representative on his speakerphone with me present, and Allergan's rep said about 10% of all cosmetic patients eventually become immune to it and it will never work again. The... more

“Droopy, Saggy Eyes After Botox - San...”

Pros: Hmmmm... none. Cons: I wasted $2000 between Botox and Juviderm ... result is = I look OLDER! More wrinkly, just awful!! In the mornings it is like a nightmare! My eyes are so puffy! unbelievable! I hate botox. Never again. I just turned 40 so I wanted to look refreshed and better, boy was I wrong! I am $2000 down the drain, $550 per injection of Botox (2) and the Juviderm... more

“Patient and a Registered Nurse - San...”

I have been going to Dr. H for over 5years now. He performs my Botox injections, and I have always been extremely happy with my results. He listens to the concerns that I have without pressuring to perform surgeries. He has a fantastic bedside manner and as a nurse I regard this highly. Recently, I tried Juvederm and I loved the results. He is extremely skilled because all he specializes... more

“Genuine, Nice Doctor - San Diego, CA”

I got Botox and fillers as a deep wrinkle preventative. I also want to get my eyes done soon, as stated above. I began seeing Dr. H for Botox injections and Juvederm fillers for my lips and smile lines in '08 when I was 25 yrs. old. Many of my friends said I was too young to get Botox injections, but when I did, they couldn't even tell. :-) I could still move my face, but my fine... more

“Forehead Lines and 11 Gone-San Diego, CA”

I am 35 and had always looked younger than my age. However, I've had horizontal lines on my forehead since I was in my early 20s from having a very expressive face. I decided to try botox when one day when I noticed I vertical lines between my brows and really felt I was starting to look my age. I have got botox twice now in the last 6 months. I totally love it. I look much more relaxed... more

Staff was really professional and nice. Dr K was awesome! This was my first procedure of this kind, he explained the procedure to me step by step and made me feel comfortable.It was pain free and worked great, just like he said it would. Excellent results, I will absolutely be back again and will refer others. Thank you!! more

“I'm 27 and I Still Get Carded...”

My Dr. is amazing! His staff is friendly and informative. I was a little worried about getting this done...I was afraid it was going to hurt. Literally, I did not feel a thing! He simply has magic hands.I was recently in a casino in Las Vegas and every time I stepped onto the casino floor I was carded (noone else in my group was!) I was feeling a little insecure about some forming wrinkles,... more

“My Eyebrows Arch for the First Time...”

Could not be happier. 65 Units the first time-my eyebrows have always gone straight across. My provider gave them a small arch like a mini lift. Line in forhead gone and my crowsfeet look like they did 15 years ago. I also had a couple units by my mouth because it pulls downward making me look like I frown all the time and creating deep lines.I have also had Juvederm b more

I did not feel anything.Is the amount safe and I had no side effects except a minor headach. I noticed the wrinkle is still here and they inidcated they would fill it with a filler more

“Tingling After Botox for Dystonia in...”

I tried the Botox to get off of medications. It did help with the pain but I became ill and had bad headaches and I have this constant tingling in my shoulder. Also my muscles were so sore and very weak that other muscles over compensated and became so tense I could hardly move. I actually looked lopsided from this, the left side of my body was higher than the right. The right side is where... more

“Botox for Crow's Feet and Fine Lines...”

Yesterday, I had 12 units of Botox injected around my eye area to treat crows feet and fine lines in my under-eye area.I have read the pros and cons regarding Botox injections online, but can't completely say first hand, yet, because I have only had my first treatment yesterday and the results are not clear yet.I will say, however, that it was completely painless (the cold of the ice I held... more

“Worried About Eye Wrinkles - Now...”

I was injected 4 days ago and noticed puffiness and slight drooping 2 days later and now everyday becomes worse and worse. My upperlids are very puffy and hang over my lower lids. I have little to no movement of brows and have lost the natural arch and they now sit low over my eyes.

“Botox is the Best Defense Against Aging.”

I am 43, and thanks to Botox, I continue to get asked on dates by twenty-somethings. It's not cheap, but I feel it's worth it for my self-esteem. No downside, except for occasional bruising, which you have to expect as part of the procedure. I used it on my forehead and around my eyes to reduce the crows feet. Excellent results. more
