  • Posted to Radiesse, Lumpy Lips on 1 Jan 2010

    Hi Chula, I also live in Honolulu, Hi and have had my first Radiesse treatment a couple of days ago but not in the lips, and so far it looks fine. But wanted to ask you how your lips look now, have the lumps softened up yet? Could you possibley send me a "PM" and let me know the name of the doctor who injected you? I am really curious, as I have been doctor shopping a lot, to find the best at injecting fillers. I actually would love to try "Artefill" but am way too scared.

    Thanks for the asking your nurse Chai. After reading so many posts on this forum and also on EDS forum, everyone's experience is so different. Some shedding more than others, some having different lash growth in each eye, etc. etc. So, I guess for the time being it will be just trial and error for most of us, as we all seem to respond differently to this product. What works for one, does not necessarily work for another. I am starting to feel that the more I read the more confused I get, but it is so helpful to read about other peoples experiences, both the positive and the negative.

    Pitty, I don't know how to edit my post once it is up there. But I wanted to say that the "other forum" contributor did not specifically say that she had no shedding. I would assume that she may have shed, but not in a significantly noticable way. My point being that she did not seem to experience the shedding problems that some have had after they had started their maintanence routine and she feels that maybe her continious daily use may have kept her lashes at the desired length. I am wondering if its worth a try?

    Anyone have any views on lash shedding? I have been reading on another forum, many people complaining about lash shedding after several months, and some even complaining their lashes returning to pre-lumigan length. Has anyone out there been using daily, and not gone on the recommended maintance program after the 4 month mark? Just curious, as one forum contributor had been applying Lumigan daily for a year and has had no shedding and is more than happy with her long lashes. Thoughts anyone?

    Hi Ladies, Chai, Ariana, Nipchick & Suzg, I am hoping that all the forum users take your valuable advice and NOT MENTION ANY PHARMACY NAMES AGAIN. So many of us here on the forum are contactable via private message and we are happy to help each other out with the info that we prefer not to mention Real Self. There is still so many other tips we can share with each other to keep this forum going we really don't have to publicize where we are purchasing or where we intend to purchase this product from now on.
