Restylane Burst out of Syringe Twice! Should I Go Back to Get Juvederm?

July 23, 2012
Asked By:sanjoseteacher in Houston, TX

First, I spoke with the Dr. about not wanting Restlyane since it didn't last long when I used it before. She said she'd use Juvederm since it lasts longer. She uses smaller needles than provided, thus, the needle blew off the end twice! As I was leaving I noticed the box of Restylane, not Juvederm! Now I am doubting I got what I paid for and am not sure how to proceed. Should I call and ask to have the Juvederm I asked for to begin with?
