Wanted a more refreshed look & was willing to pay the $ needed- but after a consultation that left me ill-prepared, I had a not so pleasant first experience. Got through it somehow- but don't see any difference whatsoever- except for my savings account. Results are not noticeable. I m disappointed frankly

Some nurse at the clinic. I only met the doctor as a matter of formality- they even said that! Was surprised by the lack of oversight. The MD doesn't even touch patients I don't think.

How many vials did you have injected?  I'm sorry you don't see a difference.

2 vials- $1800 Absolutley no difference :(

Fyi, each vial is only 1/5 th of a teaspoon, so it is fairly common to not see any improvement with only 1 vial per side.

Thank you Adam. I didn't realize each vial was only 3 mL. I guess based on what the consultant told me

I got the impression that having 2 vials was already more than usual to start with.

Yeah, sometimes it takes a few vials to notice any difference. Luckily, Volume lasts for 2 years, so you can get more added and build on what you have at a later date.

That should say "Voluma", not "volume"

Autocorrect is not a fan of "voluma" unfortunately. That seems so expensive when you think about the cost per vial.

Capitolyasa- do you think you will get more vials injected?

November 26, 2014
Jill81- no, I will not. $1800 is waaaay too much $ for at best "potential improvement"
November 28, 2014

Understandable.

I agree. You are only 30 years old, so I don't think you have much "droop" yet. Just use broad spectrum sunscreen every day, and maybe a mild peel occasionally for now.
