I can't for the life of me figure out why I let my Doctor talk me into this. I saw the reviews and boards. It started out that he was just going to do my forehead to give me a lift, then he was just going to do the "jowl" area. It looked good so I let him do the rest of my face. BIG BIG MISTAKE. It left me with a permanent scar below my eye. It is about the size of a nickel and is indented. I guess this is what they call "fat necrosis" or "atrophy". Now I have to spend $500 every 6-12 mos. to fill this divet with juvederm, and you can still see it, because it is impossible to flatten it and not have it catch the light.
Whatever firming it did was not worth a large, permanent, expensive scar under my eye.
PLEASE believe these boards. The Doctors are leasing this equipment for a lot of money and need to pay it off. They are not an unbias source to ask - they are trying to make a living like all of us. Believe the public that are taking the time to warn others before they have regrets.
