Hi, first time injections done today. So far so good.

Botox did not hurt at all. Restylane hurt a bit, but was waaaay better than I thought it would be.


I was a bet red/swollen from restylane, but the redness is gone, slightly swollen. (just had it done this am).

Botox has not kicked in yet.

So far I am really pleased with restylane results, really plumped up nasolabial area, but looks natural. Very Happy

Congrats! I find Botox takes a good two weeks to really kick in for me. I just have some in my 11's.

Be warned though, they are both addictive!!

Good for you. I ask the derm to give me a little Vitamin K cream to apply to cut down on the bruising..I'm super white/irish... Takes about 3 days for me to see full result from botox

I just had my 11's done on Friday and am starting to see it kick in, usually 3-7 days for me.
Hope you love it!

I had 30 units on forehead. Only day 1, so far has not really kicked in yet.


I had restylane in nasolabial area. What a difference!!

I spend soooo much on creams, potions, ect. Wish I had tried this sooner!!

The swelling has mostly gone away today from restylane, no bruising or redness today.

I had no tell tale marks from Botox. Just purchased Latisse as well.

The thinning out of my lower face was bothering me, I am early 40's, skin in great condition. I am glad I had it done.

(I can see how this can be addicting though, lol!!) Very Happy Very Happy

I did Botox on my 11s 3 times... after that I guess I stopped frowning as much (before I would frown A LOT) and so now I have not had Botox for 8 months and the lines are still not there.

I also got a bit of botox to get a very slight "brow lift" (very light, I did not want to have that scary look some people get) and was very pleased with the results. Haven't done it again though, I've been lazy to go to my derm

Finally, I got filler under my eyes (I had dark circles) and I look way less tired that I did before!

Mind you I'm still youngish so I only have some fine lines here and there.
