I am 47. Have been getting juvederm for last five years. I had issues with numbing cream (lido 15/5), Namely got pounding slow heart feeling for hours after so my cosmetic surgeon began using the lido free juvederm to fill marionette lines. The doc now says galderma will stop making the lido free option. I would like my cheeks filled or chin, whatever will help with the major drooping i am seeing. But I don't know what lido free options I have or what exactly I need to help.
