I have had 0.8 ml of Juvederm 4 injected in my nasolabial folds yesterday (London - Wimpole Street).
Plus points: pain free, no bruising, bleeding, etc. I went to the pub afterwards and did not have any problems
Minus points: I can hardly see the difference. I don't know if it's worth injecting more, or if it's better to try and lift the cheeks thus getting rid of the folds. Will have to discuss it with the doctor...

After 1 week I can say it's like I had water injected in my face....£350 worth of nothing.
The folds are as they were before.
The good thing is I don't have any bumps or any bruising whatsoever.
I will contact the clinic to ask whether this is normal.....
Great review?

Hi Jenna, Thanks for your comment. I will wait a bit and decide what to do next. However I don't see the point of having 0.8 ml sized injection if the result is zilch. The only reason I can see is to get more money out of us. Not sure I want to go back to a doctor who behaves like this.

Yes I agree, the doctor should of been honest and said what the results would be. . I was looking very thin on the face at one point so I needed quite a few injections to give me the volume I needed. I also have tryed Restalane, Radiesse, Perlane and Sculptra but it's Juverderm Voluma which has worked the best for me.

Hi, to be honest 0.8ml is not going to make a very big noticable result. I have had to make lots of trips to my clinic to get the results I needed. Although sometimes it does take a good few days for the product to start attracting water which is what is meant to do.

Oh no :( What a bummer to not be able to notice any results. Have you had a chance to contact your doctor?
