Hello I decided to get some botox and sculptra treatment after I felt unwanted after a separation, I looked in the mirror and saw the real me and didn't like who looked back at me, I was very depressed and decided their and then that I needed to think of me for the first time in my life, I looked up skin specialists here in the uk and decided to visit 'DERMASKIN' based in Chester here in Great Britain, I did my research and checked all the staff qualifications and looked at all the reviews on-line before I booked my appointment, I took 2 pictures of myself and took them along with me to my appointment, I was met by Dr Vic who took the time to chat to me and together we chatted about what my aims and goals were with the outcome of any treatments.

I said to Dr Vic that I wanted to look back at my pictures and say who was that guy, I wanted in a years time to look in the mirror and see a new confident me.

We decided to start treatments with Botox in the 3 main areas of the forehead, after 4 weeks we started the Sculptra treatments which were 4 months apart (4 vials in total)

A year on and you can see the results, ime currently saving up to have my upper eye bags removed so ime not fully their yet, but ime brave enough to share my year on here, let me know what you think.

Dr Vic was very understanding and very patient, he was not pushy at all, and left any final decisions to me, I was informed of all the options open to me and which options he did not think would be suitable. Dr Vic understood I was very nervous so he took his time and explained what he was doing every step of the way, The Sculptra treatment was pain free as the numbing cream was NOT used I was numbed with injectable anesthetic so I did not feel any pain at all (I recommend the injectable anesthetic ) I will now only go to DERMASKIN for all my treatments.

Hey thank you for your lovely comment, If you need any questions answered about Sculptra before you have your consultation don't hesitate to contact me.

DERMASKIN CHESTER (TEL : 01244 748678) Is in Chester centre a minutes walk from the Race Course

You will feel very relaxed, the consultation is free and Vic is not pushy at all, he will make you feel very at ease, He will let you know if Sculptra is the right treatment for you.

You do not pay upfront, only after the treatment, and you walk away from your consultation to have time to think. If you decide against the treatment you do NOT get pushy phone calls.

All in all a very pleasant pain free experience.

Vic knows me now as I have had a few treatments of Sculptra and Botox if you wish you can mention my name (Jason Black) and this site.

Hoe this helps, Jason x

Wow you look amazing!!! Congrats! Do you think Sculptra helps with fine lines and wrinkles in addition to giving volume?

Hello thank you for your kind reply, I did have fine and deeper lines under my eyes and at the side of my eyes, you can see them from the before pictures they are now all but gone, and disappearing daily, This was done with the Sculptra, The eye area is very tricky to do with Sculptra only a very experienced doctor should do this for you, if the Sculptra is taken too close to the eyes this can then cause complications, My Doctor (plastic surgeon) Dr Vic is one of the Sculptra experts who trains other surgeons and doctors to inject Sculptra so I was very lucky. Some doctors will not go near the eye area, please do not use a Doctor who is very quick to say yes without a full consultation. Hope this helps Jason x

Yes looks very good. How many vials of Sculptra did you get?

Hello thank you for your nice comment, I had 4 Vials of Sculptra over a 1 year period the last vial was 2 weeks ago. The doctors tend to suggest 1 vial for every 10 years of your life so I have 1 more to go, but I may leave it at the 4 vials and just have a yearly top up, I am very happy with the results.

Sculptra is amazing but very slow in progress. I have had 2 vials so far and plan on doing 4-5 total.
So glad you are happy with your results. You look refreshed, younger and a better version of yourself.

If you have a very good trained doctor and check their credentials then the results should be very good, I am very happy with my results, Sculptra has given me a new lease of life.

No doubt there is a huge difference. Although I have to say you looked great before too. Personally I don't mind wrinkles on a man. Gives a sophisticated look.

hhhmmmm Dates are now difficult

Silly problem I am having now, I am pleased with looking younger, people now tend to think I look in my 30's but that's up to you to decide.

When I now meet someone for a date they get the shock of their life when I tell them I am 51 (52 on 21st Nov) guys younger than me (age 28+) now want to date me as they think I am their age, its a compliment but never seems to pass the first date when I tell them my age, don't get me wrong I have never been asked my age before the date so I have not lied.

Time will tell with this one I think, just something to think about when getting Sculptra guys.

You really do look younger. My sister is a flight attendant from the USA and flies to Amsterdam,Ireland,Great Britain and other countries.
Sounds like the cost may be cheaper where you live. Can you list your doctors website? How many syringes did you get ? What was the cost per syringe?

Thanks!
