Radiesse, Juvederm, or Restaylne

[Amy Steppe]

I am trying to make a decision between these facial fillers:

Radiesse
Juvederm
Restlane

For you ladies who have had any of these done can you please tell me about your experience? I am leaning towards Radiesse because I have read it lasts up to one year.

I don't want to end up looking like some of the scary photos I've seen around.

Can you tell me how much the prices run in your area?

They run appx. 500 per syringe where I live.

Thanks!

Amy

I have not tried any of those, but I have seen the commercials on Juverderm and it looks tempting. I am waiting to hear the answer too.

Hi!!

I had Juvederm applied in my "laugh lines" and a little under the corners of my mouth and am VERY happy with the results. Had it done mid-Nov and it's still holding strong. I had quite a bit of bruising and it's a little painful, but very manageable. Cost was around $500.

Now I just need to get my Botox done again It lasted about 3 months.

I swear I'm NOT a procedure junkie,lol...all of my changes were very subtle and probably more noticed by me than others, which is what I wanted.

If you have any other questions, fire away!

artfille

HI, I had artfille (not sure of spelling) done about 2 years ago. It is more permananet than the others. Ask your doctor about that one. I switched from botox to dysport for my forhead & crows feet, I found that it lasts longer than botox. Also, dysport offers discounts. The artfille cost about $800 it depends on how much the doctor uses. As far as pain, they now have a pain duller in the injection so it is really not that bad, just keep thinking of the results, not the injection. I did get alot of bruising as I bruise very easily, it looked like I was in a fight & lost big time. My dysport costs $250 for forehead & $250 for crows feet.
