I had no pain at all and no downtime. You face does feel a bit numb after the procedure for the day (due to the freezing within the Juvederm) and feels a bit, um...puffy I guess for the 2nd day. Whatever it is; you can't feel any difference by the 3rd day.
Unfortunately I may have to retract some of the good things I said because I have a barely noticeable lump on my left cheek, but the cheek hallow was done PERFECTLY! The right cheek however, was not done so well. I have a somewhat noticeable lump just below the cheek bone and the cheek hallow needs to be filled more to match the perfect left one. Unfortunately I'll probably have to have the lumps dissolved and more volume added to the right so I'll probable have to buy another syringe which sucks :(. Luckily they tell me they can store the stuff and I can just use it when I want. (probably 1yr from what they say) I'm going to complain to them tomorrow and keep you posted on what they tell me. Maybe Dr Barnard is not quite as good as I originally thought. But when he did my Naso lines it was done perfectly and I was in and out in 20mins!
