So Far So Good! - Minneapolis, MN

I Guess That I Took the Results for Granted. - Edina, MN

The nurse that preformed the injections contacted me and wants to work with me to review a plan to make me feel comfortable. I appreciate this and I have another appointment on May 17 and will report what progress occurs. Hats off to that spa for trying to help me.

Actually Megan, it's more like 1 VILE plus 3 SYRINGES of Sculptra with very little results. Now I have been told that I need 2 syringes of Perlane. It all sorts out to be around $2300 (roughly). Had I known this, I would have spent the entire amount of money on Sculptra...it would have meant 3 VILES Sculptra. I would have gone a different route completely.

I left an email for my nurse. I am looking for her for answers. I'm hoping that she can give me a legitmate answer so I can continue with working with that specific spa. Unfortunately one cannot say that it's me or what I've done, as I had fab results with only one vile three years ago.

I massaged the injection sites 5 times a day, for five minutes each day, for five days. I think that it's necessary to do so to prevent any little lumps.

No, I'm sorry, Megan. My post is a little goofy. Both times it appears that I had deep injections and both time the pain started within 5 hours of the injections.

To my understanding, it is a slow metabolism that allows the results to last. It's debatable whether or not that's luck or not. ;)

Thank you Britt! I need to dig through my photos to see if I can find a "before". However, since I tried to hide those lines, I might not find one.

I am due to return to Dr. Tholen May 17 for injectable fillers. So if I can find reasonable "before" photos and will be happy to post them.

I believe that people that are unhappy with Botox results are either "immune" to the product or the individual injecting the product is not skilled. I could not be happier with the results. I'm overwhelmed by the improvement.
