I didn't go back for another. Honestly, it did little more than a dermabrasion. I also wasn't aware how restrictive sun exposure would be so I requested a refund and received one. I honestly don't think it's worth it and I saw no difference, really, in skin texture either. A lot of people say after one treatment their acne is better (mine got worse) and their skin looks more refined. I saw nothing.
Whew, little abrasive aren't we?
You are right, it is my FACE which is why I went to a well known, well respected Cosmetic Surgeon, not the local "Med-Spa" or hair salon with an RN and doubted the Dermatolgist.
That said, 90% of the "well known and well respected surgeons" are ofering some sort of discount-(I called 12)as you know, bad economy, first thing people forego is unneccesarry stuff like fillers and Botox.
I didn't mean to imply he is a bad surgeon.I just think some people have the technique or even art of injecting down better than others. Judging by all the varied comments on this filler and others, on this board, that seems to be more of a theme than an exception. Since my initial posting, I have "massaged" and the filler has leveled out and actually looks quite nice. Will I do it again? Not sure. I think my money would be better spent on a neck lift and TCA peel as the lines on my face aren't deep and the results were not so spectacular as to warant $400-600 every 4-6 months.
