There are studies out there that the use of lasers and other Facial Fillers are safe. Although silicone injections are not prevalent in the US, this same principle applies. The lasers and Intense pulse light do not penetrate deep enough to effect the fillers including silicone fillers. Silicone fillers are also more resilient than other dermal fillers such as restylane, juvederm, etc. In general, with silicone injections it is hard to predict what will happen with any procedures done in this area of silicone injections. Any increased inflammation could lead to a foreign body reaction and possible rejection of the silicone and hence problems with this.

Reusing previously injected Facial Fillersreally depends on the physician. It is generally not recommended to do this practice. I never reuse previously used Juvederm. In my opinion, Juvederm is sterilized for one time use. Injecting Juvederm later only invites an increased risk of infection whlie it sits in the stored environment. No matter where you store it, the Juvederm will accumulate bacteria and when reinjected will only increase the risk of infection. I would be careful when this is done in my opinion.

In my experience, when there is extra oozing in the area, Juvederm is likely to pull in more volume than Restylane and can give you extra swelling in the area that has more oozing. This will go down over the course of a week. Don’t worry though you can always take some of the hyaluronic acid away with an enzyme injection consisting of hyaluronidase or wydase.
This can be done in a judicious way to make it look the way you want it to look. the same goes for the lump. Massage is another way to help alleviate the differences. You should ask your doctor to help you though this. Massage is less likely to improve the lump and my experience the enzyme injections can really help in this situation.
I refined an amazing volumizing procedure called “the YoungVitalizer”. This is an innovative technique that volumizes your face to bring out the younger and natural you without looking like you had something done. This is not a facelift and requires no incisions. Only pinpoint puncture sites are used and these heal imperceptibly. The YoungLift can be done without general anesthesia and without drains, and large bandages. You also have a lot less downtime and discomfort compared with traditional facelift procedures. Dr Young employs the very best techniques from around the world into one volumizing procedure and he uses his internationally acclaimed understanding of facial beauty to create the youthful volume you once had. The YoungLift techniques can help with filling up the lips as well. You can great results with fat injections in the lips.

Volumizing for the midface is one of the best ways to rejuvenate this area. Facial Fillers and Fat Transfer procedures can markedly bring youth to this area in a natural way. Dermal fillers are a non surgical way to do this without long incisions but the effect is short lived lasting from 6 months to a year or more, depending on the product. Fat injections are another option that also requires no incisions just small puncture holes to achieve beautiful results that can last years up to 10 years or more. Volumizing is a great alternative to midface rejuvenation.

Hyaluronidase per vials is a lot less expensive than Facial Fillers like juvederm and restylane. For this you are paying for the cost of the time from the injector and will depend on their rates on an hourly basis. For your lips, I wouldn’t expect that would be more than $250 more or less. The doctor or injector that did your procedure should really help you with this to help you achieve the best results.
Don’t worry, you can get your lips the way you want; it’s not actually that hard as it seems. Before you get injections in your lips, it is helpful to go to a doctor with a great sense of aesthetics.

The glabellar area looks the way it does when you lose volume in this area as you age. Botox is a temporary fix to paralyze the muscles for a 3-6month period. This keeps the muscles from working and creating and deepening the wrinkles in this area. Botox doesn’t improve the volume loss. If you look at infants and children you will notice that the glabellar area is quite a bit fuller than the older individual and really the whole forehead is much more volumized in youth.
Facial Fillersand Fat Transfer are a great way to improve the glabellar region and the lines that form in this area. The filling removes the muscles from the skin and makes it harder for the muscle to actually create the wrinkles. Fat injections also help break up the fibrous tissue that can sometimes hold down the wrinkles in their current wrinkled state.

There are many factors that will determine and affect your recovery from dermal fillers or botox / Dysport.
Generally, Botox is much less involved and typically you will have small mosquitoe bites for about an hour. Bruising is less common with botox as opposed to dermal fillers. Facial Fillersrequire even distribution for even, smooth results. And if you are to do that you need to layer the filler every where in the area that you are augmenting many times. This usually means that you need to go in and out with the needle multiple times.
Each time you do this you increase your chance of disrupting a blood vessel. Bruising in my experience is more common in the eye region. This is because of the thin skin in this area and the greater vascularity that is located here. Avoiding blood thinners is really important and icing can really help.
Your age and genetics play a factor as well. As you age, your blood vessels are more fragile and your clotting can also be less robust. Genetically, you might be more prone to bleeding as well. Ice and local anesthesia are things that can help along with judicious use of pressure in certain areas.

Facial Fillers slowly goes down with time but can last for longer than a year. In fact biopsies of areas that have had radiesse injections have shown that it can last up to 3 years or more. But the volume that remains later on is no more than 30% of the original volume that was injected. The area that is injected also determines how long it lasts. In more mobile areas, the effect is less and goes away faster.
Another way of filling is through fat injections.

Botox from Allergan or Dysport from Medicis, Facial Fillers, are all products that have a long safety profile and have been used throughout the United States in a safe manner by many doctors. They are proven safe in the right hands.
Going to a doctor that is board certified is a starter. Then you need to see the doctor’s results or possibly talk to people who have had it done by the particular doctor. These are ways to ensure that you have the right doctor doing the procedure. The doctor’s academic performance can also be an indicator. You should be able to research your doctor on their website as well. With all of these pieces of information, you will be able to come up with a bigger picture of whether you would like a paricular doctor to be the one to do your procedure.

Facial Fillers will last about 6-9 months but can improve this area. Fat injections can last 8-10 or more years. You are one the right track though. You need volume in this area and that’s the best way to improve this area. One thing to realize is that restylane will go away and can also be taken out earlier if you wish through enzyme injections. This can be reassuring.
Fat injections are more permanent and is a little harder to get rid of if you don’t like the volume but can be done through different special procedures. In my opinion, fat injections / transfer leads to the most natural results.
