I was extremely nervous as I am new to cosmetic procedures. I researched for months in Chicago online about juvererm and spent time looking for the right plastic surgeon. I decided to go with a Dr. in NYC who came highly recommended when I was there on business.

I had it done on a Friday and was able to go to work on Monday. Very minimal downtime. I had slight bruising that was not noticeable w/ concealer.

He gave me 2 units, price was very reasonable considering I had it done in Manhattan. Took 5 years off my face and will be flying back to see him to do it again. I am very happy with the results.

I highly reccommended my facial filler provider. He has an impeccable bedside manner, he sits and listens, very soft spoken, gentle, and to top it off A JOB WELL DONE. Thanks Doctor Shafer for shedding a few years off.

Great First Time Experience

I flew from the east coast of the US to come to this clinic for Dr Juan Fuentes. I got nose fillers for the very first time (first time for any kind of fillers and face procedure so I was a little nervous). My nose was fractured long time ago and I'm still saving for surgery, so fillers is a temporary and aff...
