fillers restalyne
$500
I dont have a photo yet. I got Restalyne and looked like I was in my 30's again. I got a bad blue black needle prick bruise so I couldnt even enjoy it. Makeup wouldnt cover it up. 6 days after I looked like sh*t again. I have been crying all day. $600.00 and a very painful needle prick on both sides of my face. I dread going back to have it done again. im a nervous wreck and dont think its worth it. Life can be so dauym cruel. its just sick to wake up and dread looking in the mirror. having a carrot dangled in front of your nose like that isnt funny when your older. She used a canneula however she had to use a needle to poke a hole in my face first and even with numbing cream it was pretty bad. Not one single person even noticed I looked better at class on Tuesday and by Thursday i looked as if I nothing done. I cant even feel any left. How did my body eat it all up in 6 days????
The most painful thing of all.. letting my husband have sex with me and then he went right back to treating me like crap 2 days later when my face started to go back looking the way it did. Im crushed.......

Ok Here are pics of my journey..
I started getting really bad bags right before the first proceedure.. then they were not too bad after wards.. I wasnt drinking much water either and my weightloss suffered.. So I noticed the bags seem to be back after the second treatment? I dunno I will post updates every month. Ill be happy as long as my face doesnt melt off

Yes, not much change (maybe slightly less puffiness), but better than total negative effects. Thanks for sharing and keeping us posted going forward. All the best!
what's funny is it seems the second treatment reversed the first one.. I swear the bags are back again : (
I've seen many, many reviews saying the 2nd treatment did the most damage. The body can only take, and recuperate from so many inflammatory responses. But, if that is the worst that happens to you, you can always look for safe alternatives considering it's such a small area of your face. All the best.
Yes I am still going to thank my lucky stars.
hi in your pictures i see improvement in the bags under the eyes but not on the wrinkles
Ugh, I have such damage from ultherapy too. Melted my lower face . It's a thermal burn, like battery acid deep under the skin. It's been my nightmare since 2012. Don't walk...RUN people from this procedure! It's not worth rolling the dice!

Honestly I didnt see any change at all. I had a second appoint done and the worker didnt seem to know what layer to do first or what number to set the machine at. The first set was great tho.. I could handle 75. This time on the first pass i felt nothing set at 50 which I have no clue why she did that. The second pass was a little more the third pass it hurt a lot! I asked how high dd she turn it up to? I could barley handle it.. All she said was "High" Im scarred to be honest.. I saw some horror stories on here.. I am hope that like before nothing will happen.. I much rather walk away with no change than bad ones.. When I called the salon where I had the second one done.. and told them what happened.. they offered to re do it at the end of this month.. I dont think thats a good idea... I will wait for another 3 months to see if anything happens.So far.. not really any big changes. Its been 4 months and I just had the second treatment I am not as sore as I was before hand on the first treatment even tho it hurt more... I might have one line that looks a bit deeper.. Cant really tell..ohh I take it back this was my third appointment.. I had my second one done to the smiles line on my face and saw absolutely no change.. stayed exactly the same..

Hi, it takes time for the results to become fully apparent. Considering you've had 3 ultherapy treatments in such a short time, I would wait a full year since you're your last one to fully analyze before moving on to any other treatments. If you feel comfortable, please share your progress photos to educate others!
One more thing; it's important to know the settings used on you at all times. If a practitioner cannot explain "why" they're choosing that setting (what benefit that provides), then you can always stop a session. Millimeters are critical in any type of esthetic treatments (or surgeries, for that matter).

Thank you tuffy I might consider posting pics from when I had an eyebrow tat done earlier this year and comparing pics. I have only had 2 treatments 4 months apart
Got it. Even 2 treatments within a year seems contraindicated, but thank you for sharing your journey. It will help others to make educated decisions.
