Dr . Yoo was very professional and kind . He was very artistic and detail oriented when he did my nose and chin ; However I wasn’t sure about getting my smile lines filled because I didn’t really need to . I just wanted more of the whole look. The nurses offered to apply numbing cream in my smile line area and I hesitated , they suggested I should put on the cream and then ask the doctor what he thought. This was a HUGE mistake. After I got home I noticed redness ,dry skin , premature wrinkles in that area,small bumps ....It has been a very long time since then,I’ve gotten fillers in that area , skin treatments and my smile line area is still damaged from whatever cream they put on me . There are literally premature wrinkles as if the skin had ben chemically burned . I never had wrinkles in that area until I went to that appointment. My skin in that area started bubbling up with little white bubbles of fluid . My skin became very very dry just in that area . Until this day I don’t know what they put on me but they never showed me and I’m still working on recovering that area of my face . It was very upsetting and disturbing. Just seeing premature wrinkles due to an external cause that should’ve never been considered.
Second, I payed $300 for such a small amount of botox . I told the doctor to stop after two pinches thinking they would charge for just the amount used ,but no . I still got charged the full amount . Third , now I go to another doctor and one Restylane syringe lasts for chin,nose and under eye . Here they probably only gave me half of the syringe when I payed for the whole entire syringe. Yeah the setting and location was nice , but now my smile line area is rough and severely wrinkled up and I definitely overpayed for everything.
