69 Year Old Woman Looking Her Age - Brooklyn, NY

WORTH IT$2,000
I'm a 69 year old woman who colors her hair and wears it spiked up to look "youthful" and decided it was time to upgrade the face so that everyone would believe the brown hair (hahaha). I visited Dr. Hui twice, three weeks apart, and she used both Radiesse and Bolotero during each session. I will review Radiesse here and will write another review for Bolotero. Dr. Hui used the Radiesse to plump out the hollows in my cheeks and to firm up my jaw line. She used a cannula, which means that she made only four needle sticks into my cheeks and jaws (cheek/jaw on each side) and then used a long bendy needle to swish around under my skin and place the Radiesse where needed. The needle business felt weird but was pretty painless. Filling out my cheeks and jawline not only gave my face a more youthful appearance but also caused a lot of my droop (jowls) to lessen significantly. Hooray!!
Dr Hui took before and after photos but I didn't take any of myself.

Dr. Hui exudes competence and calm and is also very friendly and pleasant to be with. She starts by having you look into a mirror and describe what areas you think need attention and how you would like them to improve. Then throughout the sessions she has you continue to look at yourself in the mirror to see if you're satisfied with how things are going. She, herself, is constantly backing away to evaluate the filler to make sure that both sides of your face will look the same and to decide where she will do the next filler placement. She has an expert feel for facial structure and goes back in for just a drop more here or there to make sure everything is perfect.

Do you remember how many vials you had injected?
Hi Jill. I guess this question is about the Radiesse review. I don't know how many vials were used, just that cheeks were done in the first session and jaw line in the second, so obviously at least two vials. The total cost for that was $2000.
Yup, this the Radiesse review :)
