here are my lopsided juvederm lips with all the wrinkles back after one week! Three syringes and 900.00 later!!! I went to a well known dermatologist. Now that the swelling is down nothing looks any different. I had my upper and lower lips injected as well as my chin and between the eyes and under. No change!!

Go back & tell the doctor or whoever did your Juvie that you are not happy to have paid $900.00 for nothing! I would be so pissed*

I went back, he saw me in the hall between patients and told me to wait a month, then disappeared into a room.

I would call the office & explain that you have NO results & you won't wait a month, either he can do it over again 4 nothing or give you your money back, looking @ the pictures I do not see any evidence of Juvederm. My results are suttle but I can tell I have Juvderm in my upper lip & naselfold area, it is not dramtic but as I said people can tell I had something done at least. Complain to whoever will listen & report him if he does not respond!

Wow, that is a lot of money for no results. Keep after the doctor and do it daily. I would also report him to anybody and everybody. I hope you get some results.

If he is still ignoring you I would report him for theft, he took your money & you have NO results as you said, you looked better in the before pic's...how very sad for you. Maybe another P.S. can do something?

I had similar experience with Radiesse/Botox.I Went in March, after 1 week the botox was almost gone. After 2 weeks the Radiesse was almost gone as well.(This is advertised to last at least 12 months) HA! I was insecure with my looks and trusted this very reputable spa to make me look just perfect (which they told me)! After emailing/calling this Spa and getting attention of Regional Manager,I had a follow up appt., which from my perseverance and emailing pictures of regression they started with 2 complimentary syringes of Radiesse - I insisted in 1 more for the hollow cheeks that dissapeared too. They agreed and all 3 syringes were NO Charge! They originally cost me in March $875/syringe. Botox was 10.00 - 12.00 per unit. What I spent originally was $3400/But today I got over $2600 worth of product FREE. We'll see what happens, still swollen of course, just had done earlier. I paid for 30 more units of Botox and 1 syringe of Juvederm for my skinny skinny lips. That was $575/syringe. Vertically no pain, They used Lidocane in with some white cream. So, I do agree that YOU NEED TO contact office, keep a paper trail and pictures. If they don't help go to Regional Manager. I told them if they didn't help me I would report them to the BBB. You go there in good faith, hoping to get the results you paid so much for. Hopefully mine will work out....PLEASE it might take a month to complete but you won't know unless you start. Good Luck!

Three syringes of juvederm would be a lot more than $900.I know it`s about $700 for 1.So I doubt that`s what was injected unless he was giving you some kind of super duper deal. Go to a different dr and tell them what happened.Find a dr that is an expert injector.I had a dermotologist inject me and it went away from 3 weeks! Good luck
