Bellafill (dermal filler) "I'm in nightmare. Bellafill is the devil. Over a year ago I was injected with 1 syringe of bellafill on each side of my cheeks. I was told by the dr. whose injected, it will last up to 5 years. I never liked the look of it, since I have a skinny face and large cheeks, but I figured out that it will go away. About 2 months ago I was injected with Voluma on my lower face and nasolabial folds to balance out my face. 3 days after, my cheeks became red and with burning sensation, and when I smile I look like a chipmunk!!! with 2 ridiculous round balls in my face. Also my cheeks can become aggravated easily, if it's hot or if I rub my face with a towel. I also noticed that my cheeks become bigger in size, and from reading online I understand the bellafill is permanent and also stimulates collagen, what makes my cheeks grow. Will my cheeks continue to grow forever??? Is there any safe way to reverse the bellafill?"

Bellafill (dermal filler) "There is no good reason to use this filler. Had it injected 12 years ago (when it was called Artecoll) and thought I'd done enough research to feel safe with it. I didn't have very much product injected, but even a small amount is too much. 3 years ago I started feeling lumps where the product was placed. Now the lumps are visible, itchy, and broken vessels have discolored my skin only in the areas where the filler was injected. Some of the filler has started to break off into smaller lumps. Turns out it may take years for your body to react to Bellafill. After several consultations with filler experts and plastic surgeons, I have come to the very distressing conclusion that the only resolution is surgery."

Restylane (dermal filler) "Horrific. I had filler on Saturday (I've had this done 2x prior year by same Dr and no issues). My entire face became super swollen 4 days later and I have a massive hot, painful, shiny rash all over my face, forehead, ears, neck and now my chest. I look 30 years older and not even like me. Hard to keep eyes open. Haven't been to work in days. Dr seemed like I did something wrong. He is hours away. He prescribed methylprednisolone. Started today but don't notice any difference yet. Actually, the rash is far worse. I don't know what to do. If you are reading this and considering any HA filler do NOT do it!"

Bellafill (dermal filler) "I had Bellafill injections done five years ago. I have seven permanent lumps around my lips. They are painful when they get caught by chewing. They make kissing difficult! It was the absolute worst thing that I ever did for my face all just to get rid of a couple wrinkles. As with all the other reviews, run don’t walk away from the office!!!!! Do not do this to yourself… you are beautiful, as is, and I am quite certain that additional lumps in your face will not add to your beauty."

Evolence (dermal filler) "My doctor administered two syringes of Evolence to my face, the nasolabial folds and a little around my bottom lip. The results were fantastic. There was no bruising, hardly any swelling. I am waiting to see how long-lasting it is. "

ArteFill (dermal filler) "About 7 years ago in St. Pete, I had 5 injections of Artefill by a national award winning doctor mostly for lines above my lips. At the time, I was super pleased. Several years later, I noticed my upper lip lowered. I cannot smile, My upper lip is below my teeth. I look like a monkey trying to smile. My family is annoyed at me because now at age 70, I never smile at the most delightful events such as wedding and grandchildren birth! Just an awful experience. I am told the Artefill dropped and settled lower and lower pulling my lip down."

Bellafill (dermal filler) "I had a very positive experience with Bellafill. Excellent results that continue to improve over time. I'm a senior citizen but I don't look it in my face. I needed filling out in the temples and eye wrinkles on the sides of my face. I received Botox in my forehead, which has a more youthful effect as well. Together, the result is very rested, healthy skin. I do take good care of my face with cleansing and protecting against the harmful UV rays. But I must admit that it is fairly recent that I have done so."

Juvederm Ultra XC (dermal filler) "I paid $600 upfront after a consult and the appt. was set for 2.5 months later, which was 8 days ago. Clearly, my concern about marionette lines were given. One unit was recommended for successful treatment. When I arrived for my appt., I was told that I should have gone with the cheek filler (Voluma) and the next time I went there I should get that because it will work better. The girl proceeded with the treatment and indicated she had to use the unit I prepaid. She took before and after photos and there was little to no change. It has been 8 days now and the marionette lines are laughing at me. The girl called me 2 days after my procedure and said if money is no option, its amazing what could be done. I am so disappointed with the juvederm results, or lack of. Why did they sell me a product that would not show results? I could have easily switched to the cheek filler if that would have actually shown results. Now, I lost $600 and have kept my marionette lines."

ArteFill (dermal filler) "I went to a Dr 2013 and had some work done. I wanted this filler because of the longevity of it. Artefill is Bellafill. Anyway after I had the work done in less than 3 weeks I could not breathe I could hardly walk. I had heart problems and was admitted in the hospital. Now 4 years later I find out I'm allergic to many things. I never got the skin test but have been sick now for over 4 years. I can't breathe and my body reacts to everything. This product has Bovine in it and that a problem for me."

Juvederm Volbella XC (dermal filler) "Terrible product, the doctor that was not really a doctor (found out later) said no swelling will happen, totally different filler, nope, she injected lips, mouth corners and underside of my face, I look 10 years older, she created wrinkles and bumps with this filler. This is most awful experience I ever had with fillers and this injector, never ask for this product, it should not be permitted to use ! It does nothing to hydrate the skin either."

Bellafill (dermal filler) "I had a horrible experience with Bellafill. I was bruised very badly and I couldn't go out of my house without a mask on. It is over 1 month later, and I have black, like dark under my right eye, and still a small bruise. I have lumping on various areas of my face. My skin looks 10x worse than it did before Bellafill, as if it aged me 10 years. I'm just sick about it. I have a lot of pic's I kept, each day, showing how devastating an experience it was. I did everything prior I was to told to do, and everything post-treatment, and still a horrible experience. I had three vials of it. I would never do it again!! What a waste of money, and my skin is ruined. It isn't for everyone!!!!"
