Today I got a new type of filler - Page 3

Thanks for responding!

I didnt realize a "crunch" on the face, only when working on teeth...

I can imagine a crunch for Cosmetic Surgery would be a little unnerving too! Dont like it when it happens on Dental either.

BTW, thanks for responding to us with your vast knowledge & experience! We love learning from the vast bevy of knowledgeable & sharing @Beauties here!

It would want to know the name and all the information about it before I had the injections.

Your welcome @JoyFilled Warrior. I only had that one once like I mentioned and thinking back it's dysport. I did not like it as it did not last long. None of the others have that crunchy noise.

@Effie54 That's what a good Plastic Surgeon or master injectors are there for. To answer all your questions and concerns. If they wouldn't take the time to explain it head for the door.

I'm sure most of you didn't know these fillers can be reversed other than that 5 year "bellafill" and "sculptra".

Stay away from "bellafill". Not a smart idea IMO and many doctor's don't even use it at all anymore.

RHA has replaced most of the fillers and I'm happy about that.

@SilleeMee Monday is "cool peel" treatment 4. I can really start to see a difference in my skin. It does have a 92 percent satisfaction rate. BF out of town next week so I'm going to ask him to pump up the volume. lol. Oh and full results will be seen 3 months after last treatment.

I just did some research on RHA filler. They have 3 types I'm pretty sure in the RHA collection. This new filler "mimic's natural facial movement". It does not freeze the face like the old juvederm and restalyne, etc. etc.

@monicakm your too cute. There is no pain or much swelling. With the right Doctor if your nervous he will give you a shot of novocaine. There was a lady before me who had micro needling called "morpheus" and then the "cool peel laser" back to back. I talked to her before she left. She's like you, does not like any pain and so he gives her a numbing shot. voila. lol. I don't feel much at all and don't need anything. She comes from the other side of Florida to see him.

It does not hurt or swell. As least the new RHA doesn't but the others Juvederm, restalyne do a little bit but not for long, couple of hours, if you want to go that route as far as a bit of swelling. I've also hardly had bruises with any of them. Again, it's about the injector and their talent. I like to see the result when I'm leaving the office which RHA will give you. No ice packs necessary.

You want to go to someone where your happy to go and excited for the end result. I live for reviews and looking at other people.

I loved Joan Rivers personally but did not like what they did to her. She was frozen and even talked strange. That's over.

However, things have progressed so much and that was probably the cause. A lovely lady. I saw her documentary. What a beautiful home she had in NYC.

Again, RHA lasts a long time. I have a fast metabolism and run through these things but it has lasted the longest.

@JoyFilled Warrior I had Botox injections in my entire scalp for hyperhidrosis (sweating) of my head and yes, the injections made a crunching sound as he injected. I was told it might be a bit noisy so this wasn't frightening. Not a big deal to me at all. It's the same principle as when you get injections in the under arm area for sweating.

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

@Pink123

Well, if I ever get the money and the nerves to do so, I'll reach out to you for more advice.

I've actually come a long way in the last several years. I used to be that person that would get behind the examining table and a doctor's office when the nurse walked in with a needle. I'd say something like "okay why don't we talk about this first". And I don't like surprises so I always have to watch the needle🙄😵‍💫

@Jk9

Did the Botox injections for sweating under your arms and head cause you to sweat more elsewhere? I've heard that it does.
