Not Worth It
Spent: $800 in Portland, OR

It was great at first but didn't last.

If you can afford to come up with the cash every 6-8 months or so, you can get those lines taken care of. Otherwise, it's a little harsh on the budget for a few months of not seeing those fine lines. I can't afford it and I basically threw my money away.

My Doctor:

My rating:
He didn't give me any indication that the procedure would be completely temporary. He also encouraged me to have thermage, which I did, which was like throwing away $4,000. It didn't work at all.

You said it! I noticed it lasted longer when I first got the injections. Now as I think about how much I shoveled out over time, facial surgery would have cost damn near as much. The bruising is time taken away from that small window of time a person can enjoy the results before its time to shell out for another round of injections. My lips had more staying power than the NL lines did, but I always had full lips. I got them lightly filled because there was the first signs of pulling/pursestringing on the upper lips
