Non-steroid contour injection ~
First of all, the price was the same as the amount advertised on another app.
A friend tried it three times somewhere else and said it worked, so I tried it too. I looked around a lot for cheekbone injections, but there were hardly any. Hmph. I was looking for a cheaper place to try the procedure first, so I chose a place that was easy to get to by public transportation. + Other places used products mixed with Botox and contour injections, but this one is injected three times at 1- to 2-week intervals, and Botox usually has an interval of at least 3 to 4 months, so even though it was only a small amount, I felt a bit uneasy about that and chose this place. Also, I had recently had cheekbone Botox.
‼️Right after the procedure, it swelled a lot, so I had to go straight home‼️ It gets better the next day.
It has been about 35 hours since the procedure, and they said the effect only appears after at least three sessions, and the reviews said the same, but I am 160 cm / 44 kg and not especially heavy in the face, though I have always gotten lower-face lifting, so my cheekbones used to stand out a lot. Now, it does not seem fair to call it just my imagination, because when I looked in the mirror before, the cheekbone area looked puffier, but now the hollow area under the cheeks seems puffier, so it feels like there is an effect. What to note here: 4 days before the cheekbone injection, I had the first session of Onda lifting, and 2 days before that, I had cheekbone, temporalis, jaw, and salivary-gland Botox. But if I felt the above change 35 hours after the cheekbone injection, then that probably is the reason. At another dermatology clinic, not this one, after looking at my face they recommended cheekbone fat-dissolving injections or a cheekbone thread lift that would raise the cheekbones toward the temporalis area because my temporalis looked hollow.
Anyway, the consultation price was exactly the same as advertised, whether for 3 sessions or whatever.
I do not know whether there is doctor selection, but it felt like a factory-style clinic. The doctor could probably tell the angle just by seeing me lying down. I do not know whether this is an injection that can be placed anywhere, but they did not have me sit up, look at my face, and assess it before injecting. They just asked where my concern was and where I wanted it injected, so I said the side cheekbone area, and they injected it there. Still, I think it has an effect for me, so I am glad.
But after the cheekbone injection here, I vomited. I have had basically no vomiting recently at all except maybe when I drank alcohol? I had not drunk any alcohol, so was this from the cheekbone injection?
