Celibre Medical Center: Services and Treatment in Torrance, CA
I would highly recommend going to Celibre Medical...
I would highly recommend going to Celibre Medical Center in Torrance, Ca, I have had many treatments done at the clinic consisting of the following: Lasers for acne scars (Erbium and Aramis), cosmelan (for Rosacea and skin brightening), fillers (Radiesse, Botox, and Restylane). I must say Lori (RN) is amazing with how she is able to shape and eliminate the aging process by how she uses the fillers. For me, she is able to lift and sculpt my face by using the Radiesse for my cheeks to make my face less rounded and giving me a more youthful apppearance. I love how she does it and I hope she never leaves Celibre because I would not want to go to anyone other than her. She is truly educated and skilled on how to perform these techniques. She knows her stuff (skin care) and you can tell that she truly cares for her patient's. I also love the brightening my skin get's when I do the Cosmelan mask. I don't have rosacea, however I like how the treatment mask leaves your facing glowing and reduces or takes away any left over acne marks or blemishes. All the staff are great, Tamara, Kevin, Lori, and the girl who does the consultations and the girl who was learning tx's from Lori (who now work's for Celibre). I'm sorry I forgot the 2 of your names, but there really nice and knowledgable of the treatments! Also, they give you free consultations and explain everything in great detail!!! From, Theresa

I have tried Botox, Radiesse, and Restylane. However, personally I like Radiesse the best. In the past, I have used a combination of Radiesse and Restylane on the face. But, I prefer Radiesse to Restylane because I don't bruise at all. I'm a little swollen for 1 or 2 days at the most and I like the fact that Radiesse lasts 9 to 12 months. It's more expensive than Restylane, but I prefer for the product to last longer. I use the Radiesse for lifting the cheek areas, to appear that my cheeks are higher and that the "apples" of the cheek look more scuplted. I don't use the Radiesse for volume, but for sculpting the face and for the beginning stages of wrinkles. I have Lori also use the Radiesse for laugh lines and near the jowl areas.
I usually use 2 syringes for the whole face. The wrinkles are not to bad in that area, but I like that the area looks more smooth. In the past, Restylane was great, but sometimes I had brusing in areas and sometimes I didn't. I have used botox on the forehead in the past, but I don't like the restriction of movement and it felt weird. I tried botox twice, but I no longer use it. For the forehead, I don't use any fillers even though I have wrinkles. It's easier for me to have bangs, so it's not a major problem for me at this time. I use the fillers on the cheek areas, laugh lines, and jowl area for lifting and sculpting and beginning stages of wrinkles. I currently don't use anything around the eyes or forehead.
Hi Theresa,
It sounds like you have had a great experience with you doctor, which is awesome. What made you decide on Radiesse and where did you have it injected?
Thanks,
