I am looking for a job and decided to invest some money in my appearance. Have deep, dark tear troughs, sun damage, cystic acne scarring, wrinkles so I decided to do a full workup including a peel on face/neck/chest, botox on forehead and eyes, filler on troughs and a little to lift frown lines below the edges of my mouth. Will post the outcome but the tear troughs are already much better (amazing really!)
Skin is super tight and I look like I have a sunburn, but overall, not bad at the moment. Marie provided a nice big stuffed animal to hold during the procedures - funny, but it helped more than you would imagine!

1st day post peel/botox/fillers: Some bruising under eyes and very sore. I look like I was in the tanning bed too long (sun burn look starting to darken). Under eye area is puffy and swollen - totally normal given I had an entire syringe injected - my tear troughs were DEEP!
I did leave the house today to get my hair done - I think when you get a peel they should send you home with a T-shirt that says "Chemical peel in progress...please pardon the look" :)
Great review?

My rating:
I have been to many aestheticians in Austin - generally for botox. Marie is by far the most kind, non-pushy and communicative one I have seen. I cannot recommend her enough. I have been nervous in the past because some aestheticians seem to fly a little loose for my taste. Marie was uber professional and instilled a great deal of confidence in me.

Oh wow, you really did have the full overhaul! Glad to hear things are looking and feeling ok at this point. Do you know what kind of peel she used on you?
