Thanks for all the comments. Sorry it's been so long I've been here. I had this same thing done again in October 2010 so it's been about 5.5 months since my 2nd time. Had 2 syringes of Juvederm, no Radiesse on cheeks (didn't feel it necessary this time). Right now I can see some lines returning esp on the lateral side (by the outer eye) but it still looks better than without anything. Yes, the nurse who did this injected deep under the muscle as well. I was also very concerned about blindness before I did this but they reassured me it wouldn't be a concern - I forget the reasons why, though! (not very helpful, sorry) I should post some recent pictures... let me see if I can find anything.
Thank you!!
No, I haven't had any lumps or bumps, or discoloration for that matter. The bruising I mentioned went away in 1.5 weeks. I was really scared of bad results, having read so many horrible reviews here. I didn't consider fat transfer, so I can't say anything about that. My options where lower blepharoplasty and Juvederm and I chose the latter because I wanted something not so permanent. Of course, now that I like the results, I wish they would stay this way, sigh.
Sorry I didn't reply this earlier - I've been busy with everything else and I'm checking back only now. It was {edited} - but like I wrote, the actual work was done by a nurse. She was involved right from the start though, even in the consultation.

Ok. My photos are above. I admit they are a bit unfair as I'm not a professional photographer and the lighting is the worst possible in the before picture. I do have nice photos from the before period: with good lighting, nice makeup, smiling, etc, but I think this shows how I really looked at my worst. Ugh!
I'll see what I can do! I don't have a whole lot of good before photos b/c I hated those darn things and never wanted to be caught photographed with them. I also want to wait till my bruise heals before my first official after photo. I promise I'll try to be back in a few days and post something.
