    yes, it was withdrawn from the market a week after Thanksgiving. Johnson & Johnson claim it was due to the economy, not due to the product itself.

    Did your doctor massage the area as he/she was injecting? This is a vital technique when working with this product since it is a collagen. You may also want to massage it yourself and perhaps that might help the lumps smooth out a bit. My doctor advised me to give it 10 days. If you don't see improvement within that time frame you should contact your doctor.

    My experience was eerily similar to yours. I chose Evolence because of the so-called longevity of the product. I figured why not get more bang for my buck. Well, I am 2 weeks out and my laugh lines are still there. I didn't tell anyone I was getting this done, but not a single person has noticed any difference in my appearance, not even my own mother. My doctor offers a free "touch-up" exactly one month post injection to his patients. There is definitely room for improvement as I am disappointed in the results. And the pain, oh my goodness. He told me I would feel a slight sensation because I was given a nerve block. Slight sensation my butt. It literally felt like bees were stinging my face. It was horrible. And now I have to go thru it all over again in a few weeks. I truly do not feel that my disappointing results are the fault of the doctor, it was the product. Next time I will definitely try Restylane.
