    Tami in FL: I'm so sorry that you also had a bad experience and I can obviously understand both your disappointment in the results and your concern that the results might be permanent. I can only tell you of my experience, which is: The effects of the Botox began to wear off at 8 weeks and now, 12 weeks out, I am completely back to normal - I have visible eyelids, I can raise my eyebrows and the Botox headaches have stopped. You really just have to ride it out and disguise the effects as well as you can. Since I couldn't hide in the house, I changed my hair, changed my make-up and changed my glasses in the hope that people would notice those changes, instead of the Botox-induced changes (ok...I'm vain...duh...why do you think I wanted the Botox to begin with?!) I know that right now it seems impossible that you have to live like this for another 8 weeks but I promise you, it is survivable. And then, find a provider you can REALLY trust and get back on the horse -- 50 is the new 40 !!

    Yes, I'm going to write a Perlane review -- I now think it's my duty to let other women know these things :) and I do like the results aesthetically. I look younger. However, the bruising was much more extensive than I was led to believe, it could not be covered up with make-up and took more than one week to resolve. I envy the women who are apparently do this on their lunch hour. That is really my only complaint -- if I had been told that it was possible that the bruising would be that bad, I would have planned my work and social schedule accordingly.
