Much Hype, Not Much Improvement - Lexington, MA

How do I submit a photo from my iPad?

Cons: No visible improvement; bruising; expensive. Pros: Can't see/think of any yet. I am a performer, so looks matter. I wanted to look youthful because I missed out on so much in younger years. I have numerous pictures of my face and I look just as saggy and crepey as before. It is rather depressing. Given the stark reality that this technology is still in it's infancy, and results are so mixed, they should not be charging such exhorbitant prices. Let's face it ladies, no pun intended; the brochures show you pictures of women with radiant skin, but those outcomes are not typical... I wish I had consulted with a board certified plastic surgeon. One more thing: my left cheekbone is now more prominent; I don't know if this will change. I would love to submit a picture.

I had found this provider on line two and half years ago. She is supervised by a board certified plastic surgeon.

I'm sorry to hear you couldn't see a difference. That would be a bummer for that much money. Since you mentioned that one cheek bone seems more prominent to you (I'm assuming that is the area you had the Radiesse injected into) and that you wish you had consulted with a board certified plastic surgeon, have you considered visiting one to see if things can be evened out?

I am definitely going to see a BC plastic surgeon. I hace a follow-up visit tomorrow with the nurse who injected me. Thanks!

Please keep us posted on how it goes. At this point would you feel comfortable allowing the nurse to try to even things out if she offers to do so?
