So I had the Botox for my frown lines and Restylane for the corners of my mouth and undereye hollows. The Botox isn't a big deal - feels like a pinprick. It takes 6-8 days for it to go into effect.
The restylane...well I had been warned about the pain, but holy sh*t! The corners of the mouth weren't so bad; it was the undereye hollows. I had tears running down my face; it hurt so bad! Next time I'm going to go in an hour early and get rubbed down with the numbing cream. Only 1 cc was used.
I'm happy very happy with the results - I might go in for a little touch up in one corner of my mouth but, the eyes are a drastic improvement. There was one injection that bruised a little bit but the swelling has gone down for the most part.
So that's my field report!
