WORTH IT$2,100
I have always had bags under my eyes, but I noticed a worsening in the past couple of years that I couldn't cover up with any amount of makeup. Coworkers and peers were constantly telling me I looked exhausted or stressed, but I was initially hesitant to turn to fillers for the concerns that everyone has--bruising, pain, recovery time, cost, and looking unnatural. I had been to Dr. Karimi to treat my acne, and trusted that he would give me an honest evaluation without pushing anything unnecessary on me. He went through all of my concerns and taught me about the microcannula technique that he uses for “bruiseless fillers". Dr. Karimi is the medical director for the microcannula company, and showed me a large gallery of before/afters to ensure that the results are natural. I had 2 syringe of Perlane for cheeks, and 1 syringe of Restylane for under the eyes. The procedure took about 20 minutes and was so much less painful than I had anticipated. There was a small amount of swelling after the procedure, but it went unnoticed by friends and family—and no bruising! I was so happy with how the results settled in. No one can tell that I got filler, but no one ever tells me I look tired!

You look great-- I really love ur results. U look soooo natural. Question, why did he choose perlane fillers for ur cheeks vs other fillers? And how long did ur swelling last ? Thank u in advance
Hi Layla, the swelling lasted about a week. I felt a little tenderness but visually, the swelling was barely noticeable. I asked Dr. Karimi about juvederm vs perlane and restylane... I don't remember his exact explanation, but essentially he believed that perlane would be best for the result I wanted. He's very honest so I trusted his judgement. I hope that helps!
Yes, thank u so much. I will be going with him soon.
You look great. I want to do this but i am so afraid of bruising, I can't afford any downtime.
Hi Sue, I had absolutely no bruising, as you can see with the photo i posted two days after. My doctor used a special technique designed specifically to prevent bruising. There was no downtime!
Hi there! Your results look amazing. If you don't mind me asking, which part exactly cost $2,100? I've been to other doctors for fillers and it usually only costs a few hundred dollars. Thanks so much!
Ekt, cost of filler usually depends on the type of filler you use, which areas are injected, how many syringes are used, and the experience of the injector. From the research I did, $2100 is a very reasonable price for three syringes considering how effective the results were, and the fact that it was injected by a facial plastic surgeon who specializes in bruiseless filler technique.
Great beauty I love you ..
Wow I love your results! Congrats.
