M
MCP85Mar 22, 2019

Hello, I am hesitating between 2 treatments for my nasogenian folds. Some doctors tell me that if I use Belotero intense directly in the folds it might give me a chimp look at to rather use Radiesse and do a happy smile...other doctor suggest that Radiesse happy smile would be less efficient that Belotero intense..what do you think?
