I went back and forth between getting Radiese or not. Today I happened to be in the building and I stopped by his office to just to check out promotional items. I've been there for IPL 3 times with the Esthetician Raunee so I'm familiar with the place, they are always so nice and welcome.

Raunee was able to squeeze me in for a quick consultation with Dr. Shah since I sprung up questions about fat transplant. It was really nice since Dr. Shah is an busy doctor, his schedule is often booked 3 or 4 weeks solid.

I chatted with him about options of fat transfer and filler. I made a impulsive decision that I'm so glad I did, to try Radiese.

I am beyond happy with the result. It was so cool watching him waving his magic wand (syringe/ needle) and in 5 minutes or so and I look 10 years younger, at least that's what I like to think :-)

He only used 1 syringe of radiese, but was able to fill my nasal/labial folds, around the eyes, around the temples, cheeks. How did he do that? I have no idea. All I know is that I got soooo much out of that one syringe and it's BEAUTIFUL!!!!

I was numb for a couple hours and now it's 8 hours later all I have is a beautiful, fresh looking face. Ahhhh, love it :-))))

Today my face looks perfect. No bruise, no marks, no redness. Just like nothing ever happened except my face got to go back many years younger. Can't help turning the rear mirror towards me to look at my face while I was driving this morning.

I had Juvederm over 4 months ago and it seems to be gone totally now. Dr. Shah (and per my reading on the topic of filler), Juvederm is a bit too soft for Asians, and also the nasalbalial lines are more active (lots of movement) so jvederm doesn't hold up very well.
Can't believe one syringe of Radiesse can be of so much use... Not just the laugh lines but cheeks, temples, eyes????

Specially the strategic placement of the injection helps the face brighten up, open up without lumps and puffiness.

WOW!!!!

Wow. What a difference. U got those results with one syringe?

Yes, ONE SYRINGE. I think he put it in 12 different spots. two last ones were at my temples, all the way by the hairline. A lot of crowd feet wrinkles are gone too.

I had 6 syringes. I love the results and had no bruising and no swelling I could see. When I go back for the three week check I may have more put in the eye area. The temple area was the only sensitive area when he was injecting. Was that true with u also?

You are right about the temple area. I still felt it slightly by the third day. Luckily that I don't touch it often to notice! When this Radiesse goes out, I'm planning to do fat transfer.
