Worth It
Spent: $450 in Portland, OR
I feel duped by my restylane. I had my first injections more than 4 weeks ago and my face is STILL showing bruises. I can hide it now with makeup. Two weeks before my daughters wedding I got restaylne because I wanted to look fresh and natural. Worked like a charm to get rid of my lines around eyes and mouth. But no where, nobody, including my doctor warned me that it would cause big bruises along the side of my face. I do recommend it, but don't get the shots less than a month before any big event. Especially if you're in a lot of pictures!!!

I did not really need it in my lips but sense I had some left the doctor suggested that it could go into my lips, well they were numb for sometime, My sister takes on look and me and says, around your mouth looks swollen are having an allergic reaction to something you ate? Never again !
