My Recent Belotero Facial Filler Experience

I'm just over a week of getting the Beletoro and I will say, that I don't ever think I'd get that particular filler again! Unfortunately about a day or so after I got the injections, my face broke out in a bad rash all over the entire injection sites, places near it on my face as well as the left side of my neck. It was pretty bad in terms of the look, the itching and swelling. I had to take several days of oral steroids and now I have this unsightly looking mix matched dark discoloration on my face where the product expanded and filled. As long as I'm wearing make-up, I can hide it a bit, but I can't wear makeup 24/7. Now I have to use bleaching cream on my face for several weeks to remedy the unsightly skin discoloration. This is not the normal look one usually gets with skin discoloration. Mine resembles the shape and size of a tribal marking of some sort. It looks really weird and embarrassing. Also, the area where I needed the fill in the most didn't turn out like I'd like in terms of my face still showing fine lines on the left side near my mouth. When I called today to ask Dr. Boutte's Assistant about a touch up with another type of filler in that area, she stated that I'd have to repay the regular price for a syringe. That was disappointing to hear to say the least. Considering the bad reaction I had to the filler and the issue of having to pay full price for a touch up treatment I need to have because the initial treatment didn't completely remedy my issue, I doubt if I would return for this service. Nonetheless, I would like to share that Dr. Boutte was very responsive to the bad reaction I had to the filler. She called me immediately after hours to diagnose my issue and she quickly called in the Rx of oral steroids for me. I'd still say Dr. Boutee is a great doctor, but unfortunately the filler and the "no touch" aspect of the service doesn't bode well for me.

Finally! Thanks to Dr. Boutte, no more parentheses (lines) around my mouth! For a couple of years now, I've been wanting to get a filler treatment; but, this year was definitely the year because I started hating that by mid day, my makeup would be settling\caking between my lines and making me feel old and self conscious. Over the past 16 years or so, I've been treated by Dr. Boutte and consistently she was always awesome as she was today! She moved a ways from the city in which I live so I lost touch with her, but I'm so that I reconnected with the top Doc in Georgia to do this procedure because this is my face being dealt with here so I didn't want to take any chances. I just had the procedure done today and I saw results immediately. There was hardly any pain, I don't see any bruising as of yet. Best of all, I'm enjoying looking at myself in the mirror and seeing a person who now looks the age she feels. Thanks Dr. Boutte for those gift hands you have! As I move forward in age, you're definitely going to be the person I come to help me to welcome that journey gracefully via a lil nip, tuck, fill, plump or flatten. You're simply the best!
