“Bruises After Juvederm - San...”

I have terrible bruises this time. I'll wait until the bruises and swellings are gone and then decide. Comparing techniques of the two doctors: my first one did about 2 injections on each side and used the regular Juvederm. No one, including me, noticed the difference, but I don't think she is a bad doctor. It's just that the way my cheek and eye areas shaped. The second... more

“Makes Me Look Chubby, Not Young -...”

I'd been to this dermatologist before for V-beam and was very happy with the results. Went back a few years later (I'm now 46) for juvederm around the mouth to hide a bit of sagging/beginning of marionette lines. She injected one syringe total and it has now been three weeks. On one side the sagging looked much worse, not better. Overall, I just look chubbier around the mouth, not... more

“Cosmetic Enhancements That Work! -...”

After years of working and research work I felt my face looked tired and my skin tone was uneven. After receiving Dr. M's services I have never looked back and will continue to enhance my look with cosmetic services. I did not experience any pain or downtime. My overall procedure was pretty basic and simple. Juvederm injections are simple. I decided to have the procedure to freshenp my... more

“Love It! - San Francisco, CA”

I'm only 32 but I've lost a lot of weight in the last year and I've always had slightly sunken cheeks - the result being that I look kind of haggard and tired all the time in the eye/cheekbone region. I'm so, so glad I finally decided to get this done - the results were instant and really natural - it looks just like the face I had maybe 5-10 years ago - my eye/cheekbone... more

“Wrinkle Fillers Did Not Work Very...”

I am not sure if it was restalyne or juvederm but basically I had injections of filler into my smile lines. It hurt badly and the results were only noticeable good for about 2 weeks. I do have very deep lines and they had to use a lot of product. I had some swelling and bruising which I did not mind too much. I would only do this again if they made a product that lasted longer. I cannot... more

“Bad Juvederm/laser Experience”

7 months ago I had Juvederm injected under my eyes, just above the cheek.The dermatologist hit a vein on the left side which left me with severe bruising for 2 months, followed by a tyndell effect. She then aggresively used yag and v beam lasers to help the bruising which only made matters worse. I recently had vitrase to remove the filler and now notice severe fat loss under my left eye and... more

“Juvederm Around Lips”

As part of my "rejuvenation treatment" this summer I wanted to minimize the folds and deep lines around my lips. As a kid I had a tremendous overbite and over time I had developed lines usually attributed to smokers.My treatment yesterday, August 31, involved filling the deep lines on both sides of my mouth with Radiesse and injecting Juvederm around upper and lo more

“Juvaderm in Tear Trough Looks Unnatural”

I should have known better than to get all excited about a discount this random place was offering -- they were totally unorganized -- and ugh... anyway i wanted to have the fillers done and healed in time for valentines day -- the doctor insisted it would only take four days for the bruising and swelling to reside. it was more like 4 weeks, and even still I have bruising along my trough... more

“Great Results”

I went to a well known plastic surgeon in SF Bayarea. I had juvederm injected into my nasialfolds. I did not bruise and i was able to go shopping hours later. It was a very good experience. I read horror stories about juvederm but I think its all about the experience of the doctor. Do your research. Its worth it I am still having great results from juverderm.& more

“Why Pay to Get Bags Under You Eyes?”

I finally had my regular dermatologist (well known, often quoted in beauty mag and featured on TV) that I see every three weeks to inject filler to get rid of lines around my nose/mouth area. Not only was my face bleeding a lot but I ended up with puffiness around my nose area that only emphasizes the bags under my eyes. I look horrible and many years older. I am debating about going back... more

“Bad Doctor”

I am in my 20's and my naso folds were not that deep. The doctor (a top plastic surgeon listed on a webpage) was not good. I went to him because I was impressed by what it said about him. He put too much juvederm in one side of my cheek making my folds deeper then when they were to begin with. I got two syringes because I wanted optimal results. Well, I paid 1,100 dollars and ended up... more

“Juvederm Works but Be Prepared to...”

Juvederm is great, but after getting it, I wish I would have gone for radiesse. Radiesse is thicker and most people go for it for nasolabial folds. Juvederm is thinner and does not last as long. I only got one syringe but I really think I need two syringes for better results. I chose Juvederm over radiesse because it is cheaper for one, and it is my first time and I wanted to pay the least... more

“Juvederm in East Bay”

I had juvederm (one syringe) injected to both sides of my laugh lines (nasolabial folds). I heard Dr. Fan was a top doc, so I decided to go to him. When I got there, we first had a consultation which cost 100.00, but I felt it was too short and me doing most to the talking. Next, I sat on a table, I thought it would have been better to lay down. It was sordive awkward. I was numbed so I didn't... more

“I Think I Might Be Thrilled”

Great Doctor. Beautiful office. Same discomfort as going to the dentist. Shots inside of your mouth but instead of filling a cavity, they fill a wrinkle or two. Terrible dark small bruise (I had my lower corners of the mouth done)about the size of a large cold sore. But after a day or two the bruising has subsided and I feel I look better. PS My chin is still numb even though I did not get... more
