He said it would make it worse. That was my primary area of concern when I went in for fillers. I received 1.5cc of Radiesse at the nasobial folds and marionette lines, 1cc of Juvederm in the tear troughs, and Xeomin in the usual three places. I guess that means some improvement in those areas, but my original issue is still bothering me! I asked him if I had to live with my profile until I could afford surgery. He mentioned RF laser. Really? Thanks!
