For the above I would inject deep, just above the mid to upper outer cheekbone. This will lift the skin envelope and minimize the NLF and can elevate the undereye skin without injecting the undereye area. I pair this type of Voluma filler injection with endolaser lifting (subsurface laser skin tightening) if there is significant skin laxity. For above, filler is all that is needed.
In my 12 years of doing both light based laser hair removal (IPL) and laser hair removal, skin should not burn after treatment or have physical red color. This is a sign of too much heat, not enough cooling ,or of letting energy dwell in skin too long, or packing energy into skin too fast. Consider going somewhere where they have a sliding laser hair removal system that has contact cooling to prevent getting even such small burn injuries. In today’s day and age there are many machines with advanced sapphire crystal cooling in both IPL laser hair removal and laser hair removal. Find someone with better equipment and better laser and light application knowledge to avoid risk of burns.
Adding a little cheek filler can help. The key to getting filled just enough, but not overfilled depends on injector skill. I’d get a few consults snd ask to see the injector’s personsl befor snd afters. I’d also ask them what their filler goals are in terms of their aesthetic and choose an injector who values a more natural filler aesthetic, focused on facial harmonizing. Also Emface can help add volume by stimulating muscle growth, without filler.
The cost of total body hair removal varies depending on how much hair a person has on the body and typically ranges from $2500 to $3900 at our center. This is pricing for an average of 6 sessions with top rated Cynosure Palomar Icon MaxR with patented sapphire crystal contact cooling to keep you safe from burns and is 100% pain free, cold, but pain free. Additional sessions and touch ups are included to get the hair gone if needed. Usually 6 sessions is sufficient to get silky smooth. Sometimes however, a person may have stubborn hair and may require a few additional sessions. The first two additional sessions are free. The second two sessions are 50 dollars each to cover the cost of the laser bulbs. We have never needed to treat beyond this number so far over the past six years.
