Back to Dr. E! Great Results

WORTH IT$1,900
I noticed about 8 months after my treatment that I needed another shot of Restylane. I went to Dr. E for 1 vial (total) in both eyes.

I also added hydroquinone (4%) as part of my treatment which has definitely helped reduce my dark circles.

Was hydro quinone inside the injection too, like mixed in, or applied to the surface of the skin? I have some hydro quinone cream t home that someone gave me but I'm afraid to use it

Need another shot!

It's been about a year since I got the treatment and I am in a need for another shot. I noticed around 9 months after, the hollows coming back. Spending $900/year on a shot is kind of pricey but I guess we knew the results weren't permanent

Wow! that actually lasted a long time! I need mine every 4-6 months. It's expensive - but so worth it! $900/year = only $75/month :-)

A month after I got the injectibles, I'm overall pretty happy. My hollows are nearly gone and I often go outside without any makeup (which I would never do before). Although I do want a litttttttle more Restylane in my tear ducts, Dr. E recommended that we wait 3 months before doing any more.

I don't remember exactly but I feel the right eye had fewer injections (3-4?) while the left required maybe 10? The whole process took under 30 min.

So you had 1cc of Restylane under eyes and 1cc of Juvederm for checks and it was 1900.00 ??

yes

Wow that is expensive !! Did the doctor charge you a appointment fee as well?? Prices for restylane and Juvederm are usually 550 to 600 1cc (or for syring of each) you do look beautiful and I heard the doctor is very talented !!

There is an appointment fee but it's folded into the cost if you get a procedure. I don't know how different docs price but I'm guessing that one of the most famous ones in NYC would charge a lot.

So true, I had not heard of him before being on realself but he is worth it because he is very talented and I have heard of so many horror stories off injections hone wrong under the eyes !! Your eyes look beautiful !!

Thanks. I specifically wanted a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon to do it. The eye area is so delicate I'd rather pay more and get it done right.

you look fantastic! Did he inject you the same day as the consultation? I'm just wondering if I come in from out of town how this works. I too have hollow under eyes and am concerned about who will inject me.

thank you! I got them on separate days but I *think* you can do same-day. PLEASE pay extra and get a board certified oculoplastic surgeon. I think "technically" anyone can inject you but with the eye area, I'd highly recommend going for someone who knows the eye area.
