I had Juvederm injections well over six months ago. All is gone except a long "roll" down the side of my mouth. I felt that the Dr. was very "heavy handed" and tended to load up in a certain area trying to empty the syringe quickly because I was in so much pain. I'm very leery of having it again because of the pain. (I gave birth with just a Valium!) This pain was horrible!!! Now I'm thinking of getting Prevelle instead. Is this as painful? Or do you think it may have been how is was administered? I'm talking PAIN!!!! Thanks.
Although there is a certain degree of discomfort associated with all facial injectables, good injection technique can make this experience tolerable. Even though there is no way to guarantee zero pain, your injector should be able to offer various ways in which to numb you before treatment (e.g.: ice, topical numbing, or nerve blocks). Precise, deliberate injections should help minimize both discomfort as well as swelling and provide you with a result that is optimal and discomfort that is acceptable.
