I Would Never Use This Product Again

  • Not Worth It

First let me start by saying there are no pros in my case. I asked the RN that performed the injections which would be best, juvederm or evolence and she said she was on the fence, but that evolence was easier to mold.

I had the area above the lips done for those smoker lines or lines that occurred from always using straws. I ended up with not only lumps but white areas where the lumps are, which apparently is the color of the product showing through. So I am unable to cover the area with make-up I have had saline injected to try to break up the lumps, microdermabrasion in that area with a complete block and then the RN appling so much pressure to try to break the lumps up that I am amazed I was not black and blue the next day. 

The third attempt was the derm she works for injecting cortizone into the lumps, and none of these have worked! I was not informed of side effects or asked to sign anything stating there were any, bottom line is I trusted her, huge mistake. At this point I am going to file legal action. I would never use this product again and have heard these lumps can last over a year.

Great review?

My Doctor: name not provided

She did not properly inform me or obviosly know what she was doing using this product.

What office did this? I know someone in Spokane looking for an injector and I would like to warn them.

I have not had evolence but I had a bad overcorrection of juvederm to the under eye area and all I had to do was use a needle to in a sense poke the stuff out. It oozed out-I'm resourceful when I need to be.

Wow. I'm not a fan of suing people but the fact that she told you Evolence is easier to mold is laughable.

I have white lumps as well, and you're right, make up does hide the lumps.
