Since I was a teenager I have struggled with bags under my eyes due to being anemic (poor circulation around my eyes). I've spent hundreds of dollars on creams and makeup in an attempt to make them less noticeable to no avail. People have constantly told me I looked tired and it was so frustrating; I eventually resorted to hiding my eyes behind glasses to make them less noticeable. I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Hardy to discuss my options. I was nervous at first but he and his staff were so patient and comforting that it put me completely at ease. He recommended voluma and I can't express how happy I am with the outcome. 30 minutes later, zero downtime, and immediate results. I can say with confidence that it is the happiest I've been looking in a mirror in years. I highly recommend him and this procedure.

Your results are fantastic, & you look great! I go every 4-5 mo for botox and just started using Juvederm for nasal fold lines so I'm used to injections and they are definitely uncomfortable. How would you compare tear trough area pain wise to botox in the forehead? You had no bruising or swelling with Voluma? Thanks in advance for your reply.

No pain. Little swelling but only for the few hours after it was done; I am anemic and bruise very easily and surprisingly experienced none of that. There is lidocaine in the injection which makes it even easier :)

did you have any bruising?

None at all; and I bruise fairly easily.
