WORTH IT
Entering my sixth decade and a weight loss of over 35 pounds really took a toll on my face. My body looked better, but my face had lost a lot of volume, and looked sunken and tired. After consulting with Dr. Jason Emer, I underwent a procedure which improved my appearance 100%, made me look at least a decade younger, restored my self confidence. I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Emer injected 2 types of fillers in my face, Voluma and Radiesse. Dr. Emer explained that the Voluma restored volume to my cheeks, cheekbones, and chin. He then injected Radiesse to fill in the fine lines and wrinkles. This was especially noticeable in the "marionette lines" around my mouth, and also around my eyes. The result was that my face not only looked more filled in, but the wrinkles were smoothed away, and my entire face looked lifted. Dr. Emer took his time with the procedure, describing each step and explaining what it would accomplish. Although I had a number of injections, there was a minimum of pain, since I had numbing cream on my face prior to the procedure. I have not had any procedures before except a little Botox, but I would definitely recommend these fillers as a fountain of youth! I have been told I look years younger and rejuvenated. I would definitely recommend Dr. Emer as a caring, patient, doctor who will take the time to answer all questions and choose the procedure which will yield the best results for each patient. I feel and look years younger, and would recommend him to all of my family and friends!

Swelling and bruising was minimal. I was able to go out in public the next day, and a week later it was not very noticeable at all. The results were seen almost immediately! I am getting compliments from people who have not seen me in awhile and can't believe how young I look. I know that some fillers can last 18 months or more depending on the individual, but Dr. Emer could answer those questions, as well as about the cost. I want to caution you that it is so important to pick the right, experienced Dermatologist who has done a lot of these procedures and has a lot of satisfied patients. Read the patient reviews and good luck!

Dr. Burgmeire was wonderful. He asked me what I saw and he explained what he suggested then we went over a picture I took with me. The picture was more than 20 ur's old. He is not cheap but has great reviews. He examined my face from several different angles and told me what he seen and what his recommendations were. I have an appointment next Thursday to have the work done. Thanks for ur quick reply. I am looking forward to seeing the results. Thx.
