Very disappointing - cannot stand to look at myself in a mirror

Very Disappointing

I had a facelift in my fifties, and for my 70th birthday, decided to try facial fat transfer to plump up my cheeks. (I have a long, narrow face, but good skin with hardly any wrinkles, just expression lines.) The doctor who did the surgery injected my cheekbones instead of my cheeks, and also injected my lower face, around the marionette lines--I looked dreadful. Soon afterwards, he left the practice under mysterious circumstances and another doctor in the group tried to make corrections. My cheekbones blend in a little better, but now my lower face is lumpy. I cannot stand to look at myself in a mirror! I do not want to undergo a procedure that requires general anesthesia, but I'd like to try something that would produce long lasting and instant results. I've tried Bellafill and Sculptra in the past, and though I liked the results, it took too long and just wasn't enough. Voluma is another good product, but the results lasted less than a year. I've heard about Renuva, but how much would I need? I would appreciate the advice of a Real Self doctor.

check eguiaplastics on in s ta and fotona laser by dra liliana in medellin. I had it by dr guillermo blugerman but he retired. He helped me loads but i had 9 revision surgeries with him and 1 in korea wich i do not recommend. I will do a facelift with him to beautify and remove some malar fat graft i still have. I also did enzymes with dra desiree and they work but very well.
