Today I got a new type of filler

I got my usual Botox but wanted to add some filler for my laugh lines..I asked the Doctor about an injection they do by the ears thinking it was Botox and she said that it was filler they use and pull back your face. So I had that done along with my laugh lines and by my jaws. It wasn't Jevuderm or Restylne she called it something else. It has letters and numbers and it was fairly new and the results were better and lasted longer. Does anyone know what filler I'm talking about and have you had a full face of filler of any kind?

I have had Juvederm volume and Restylane. I have been happy with both. My esthetician is always getting new stuff in. I will have to ask her about this new one.

I'm not familiar with that filler.  I've had filler in my liplines and marionette lines but not all over.

I'm sort of scared of fillers, so I've never tried one. I realize that that's probably irrational on my part....but so be it.

Even if I had the the money to spend on botox and fillers etc there's no way.  I would have to be put in the coma and stay there until all the needles, swelling and pain was gone.  Yes, I'm a sissy ×10, but you go girl!

I have 2 surgeons in the family who recommend surgery over fillers. They claim that fillers stay in the face and it can be difficult to do surgery later. I have had no injections or surgery. Another sissy here! Lol

@ call your dermatologist who injected your face or look at your  billing receipt as most derm offices  write on the bill  what they used and how many units

Re: Today I got a new type of filler

I can afford it, and I'm no sissy, but I don't want any fake stuff injected in my face.  This is the face I was given, and this is the face I'll die with.  I have accepted it comes with lines and wrinkles, mostly from laughing.  For those who want to use fillers, go for it.  I'm all for things that make you feel better about yourself.

Re: Today I got a new type of filler

Thank you all for your replies and comments. I don't mind injections they feel like little stings. It's the crunching sound it sometimes makes that gets me.
