Hi, Has anyone here had radiesse for the jowly area? I am looking for something to get rid of the folds around my mouth area and was hoping that this would help the folds to go away. What are you gals doing for this area? I would love to know and thanks. |

Do you mean that you are considering having your marionette folds injected? I have had this done on several occasions and have never had any luck with it. In fact, I think the folds look worse - the filler never seems to end up in the right place.
As for what else I'm doing for the jowl area - well, I try EVERYTHING - and nothing seems to make any improvement. It's my biggest bugbear. |

I have started to do both facial exercise and massage the face. Make sense to me, the face are a bundle of muscles in need of training as well as the rest of the body - to stay in shape. Training and resting combined of course.
I do not have any major sagging yet. |

I have a new dermatologist and I was asking about Radiesse for marionette and nasolabial folds. I told her I didn't want to look like those women who, when they smile, you can see a ridge of filler there. She said it has to be injected deeply. So when I have an extra $595 and a special occasion or vacation is on my calendar, I might get this done. In the past I've had Restylane injected there very successfully but I want something longer lasting and I can't afford both.
If you have no bone structure, perhaps having small cheekbone implants would take up the slack and are permanent. Otherwise, you need a lower facelift. |
