Anyone had Botox or Fillers?

[summerblonde]

I'm 34 and I think my face is staring to look worn. Had anyone had the above procedures? I only want a tiny bit. Just to make me look more refreshed and less dull grey skin, with fine lines.

What about those facial threads technic

[Beautypie]

Having read a few threads in here and this particular one; I booked with Dr Nyla and was really disappointed. I was left waiting for over 30 minutes at reception and then moved to a different room and waited further 20 minutes there. Apart from receptionist who greeted me as I entered, all other staff were cold particular Dr Nyla think she was shocked to see a ‘real’ person & not a celebrity! Her consultation was rushed and after spending an extortionate amount I barely see a difference. I really wish I’d gone to SkinViva or other recommended clinics. Others may have had better experiences but I don’t want to ever visit the clinic again!

Had 11s done for wedding, loved it and considering having again. Echo others though, doctor not beautician

Bingy - does Dr Nyla use the cannula method when doing eye troughs? Just down the road from Wilmslow, so very interested in your recommendation. Thanks

Hi Rabbit, I don't.know if any in East Midlands, I curious are you looking at Botox or fillers? I'm still departing but think I'm going to go with tear trough fillers. X

[Rabbitwoffle]

Unlurking. So tempted...Anyone east mids willing to make a recommendation?

[Merriboo]

Feral thanks- I loved sculptra but my practitioner doesn't use it any more.
Bingy I can only see generic info about fillers rather than which products she uses?

[Bingybongybashy]

merriboo - dr Nyla uses different types of filler for different things. If you have a look at her website it's all there!

Feral - It's only just dawned on me the difference between eye bags and dark circles. Ive always called my dark circles bags but they're not ! Doh!

[FeralBeryl]

Merri essentially Ellanse is pretty instant whereas Sculptra takes a while for results to show. I like the instant gratification side of it
It's more effective for specific areas. You do have a small amount of swelling but it resolves quickly.
If your practitioner is going to use hyaluronic acid fillers, stick with the big names-juvederm etc, the molecular structure of some of the cheaper ones means they can look lumpy or feel gritty as they start to break down.
For anyone who hasn't had work done, hyaluronic acid fillers come with the emotional safety net that they can be dissolved using an enzyme.

Thanks Bingy, always like to go with real recommendations rather than who pays the most for google results!

[Merriboo]

Bingy which filler does dr Nyla use?
Feral could you tell me more about Ellanse please? I've had sculptra before and loved the effects, Ellanse seems to be similar?

[ninenicknames]

Botox! Marvellous stuff

Singsong 👍
But you may also benefit from a touch of cheek revolumisation, ask your practitioner about something called Ellanse, it's very subtle but lovely and lasts a couple of years too.
Remember you've got Doctors, but also nurses and dentists who are often more experienced in aesthetics.
We are all professionally registered and are far more accountable than someone who was a beautician until they did a one day injectables course.
As long as you do your homework you'll be just fine. Keep it subtle, I am constantly sending people away with skincare advice as they simply don't need procedures. Less is always more...

[summerblonde]

Thanks Bingy I'll definitely looking into it further. 2017 is all about me getting back on form.

Do a search for Real Self website. Very good & loads of pictures. I have Botox every 8 months or so, been having it for about 8 years. No disasters although I had a slightly raised brow last week, but sorted out in minutes in the (free) follow up.
Had my first lip filler too! Love the plumpness, but needs time to settle & may need a tiny bit more on one side. I'm over 50 & told I look much, much younger. I'm not 'frozen' it's very natural & my nurse practitioner is very, very professional & experienced.

[Bingybongybashy]

Insert - go for it!!! So pleased to help!

[insertimaginativeusername]

Another one here ready to ring Dr Nyla in the morning 👍🏻

[theaveragewife]

I have Botox between my eyebrows and above them to lift slightly, it makes me look 5 years younger and a lot less stressed than I am! I tried in the rest of my forehead once but it made my eyebrows heavy and just made me feel frozen, now everything moves but I look rested. I love it but it took me 2 years or so to decide to go for it, I think it's good to be totally sure you want to as it might become a regular thing!

[Bingybongybashy]

SingSong - it's deffo how I started! Need to win the lottery now for the upkeep!!

[singsongsweetly]

Thanks Bingy. The Dr does a free consultation so I think I might go, could get my 11's done at the same time.

[Bingybongybashy]

SingSong - as a layperson, tear trough fillers would work fantastically for you!

[NoJimmyProtested]

Anyone got any recommendations for tear trough practitioners in London? I really want to get it done. Mine are genetic and i've always had them, but getting deeper and more ingrained as i get older it seems

[Bingybongybashy]

Summer - it's amazing isn't it! Almost futuristic inside! LOVE going there! Dr Nyla is so lovely and will give you an honest assessment! Take your credit card lol!! X
