I've been going to Dr Shaw forever here in Scottsdale. Wanted to try Voluma, however was told that Restylane Lyft was supposed to be really good. I took the plunge and had 1 syringe of the Restylane lift and some Dysport around my eyes. I must say that it made a huge difference without being overly done. I have pretty full cheeks, but they've dropped a little now that I'm in my 60's. My left side seems have needed more than my right, but I hear that is common. Best thing to me is that it filled my cheeks up without leaving a ledge under my eyes. Gave me a softer look.

That's great, thank you for posting! Do you have any pics you can post? Love to see your results!

What other fillers have you tried? How do they compare to Restylane Lyft?

I've tried sculptra and jubederm and I can't think of the product that goes under the eyes but nothing lasted. Maybe sculptra but results were not at all as awesome as this Restylne Lyft. At least so far anyway. Will try to post photo

Hi! I'm a past patient of Dr. Shaw also but for augmentation. I've been getting Voluma which I'm happy with however, I'm always looking for longer lasting and better fillers. Did you only have Lyft in the cheeks, lips or eye trough? I had Restylane Silk in eye trough but doesn't seem to last long. :(

Just my cheeks. Had lips done via fat injections many years ago So far I luv the Lyft product

You are gorgeous! I'm 38 and just got restylane lyft in my cheeks yesterday. No bruising or swelling has occurred yet. I only had one syringe injected for my whole face as I was extremely nervous. So far the result is very subtle, which is good. How long did you see results last with restylane lyft? And did you get it injected anywhere else: eye area?

Your results are beautiful and I can't believe you're 60! I can only hope to age as well as you!!! <3

Thank you so much! It's not easy getting older, but don't want surgery. The Lyft product didn't las as long as I thought. Am going to try sculptra in my temple area next time.

Sorry, it did not last as long as you would like. That's my current situation. Trying to find a filler that is a 'good bang for the buck'! Have you heard of a product called, "Bellafill"? I wonder if it is a good product and worth the cost.

I had fat transfer to my lips 8 years ago. I honestly think that's the only thing that lasts. I've never even had a re-touch on them. More $, but in the long run, probably worth it. Fillers are great, but have never had one that lasts 2 years?

And your lips are very beautiful! My lips are full, I just don't like the border above and below. I tend to agree with you, that Fat transfer may be the only way to go for long lasting effects. I've tried "Voluma" and it seemed to last only about 4-5 months! I've had botox that lasted longer! I've been thinking about taking the plunge and doing a fat transfer to several areas on my face, I just have to find the right Doc in my area to do the procedure. Wish me luck!!! Thanks for your comments on my inquiry. :)

We have 2 docs here in Az that do it. Shaw and Shapiro. Maybe they'd give us a discount if we both had it done Lol. You look beautiful by the way. Don't do too much

Thank you! I'll try not to do too much!;-) Easy to get carried away, sometimes I think!! Would love a discount somewhere!!! :)))

How many syringes did you have done? I saw that you also had sculptra, I am very interested in this. How much did you have and how long did it last. I have very hollowing of xheeks fat loss looking to fill that in. You look fabulous.
