Skin Care Review: Radiance (tm)

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Reduced deep nasolabial fold and wrinkles extending into my upper lip.

Drawbacks
Expensive, painful injections with bruising, can migrate. Lasted about 6-10 months.

Details
I am 65 years old with average skin. I sought correction of one deep nasolabial fold and several deep wrinkles extending into my upper lip. A series of three treatments with Radiance (tm), using approximately 1 cc per treatment almost eliminated the lip wrinkles and reduced the nasolabial fold significantly but not completely. Bruising and swelling disappeared in a few days and the injections were less painful with a very small gauge needle and a pretreatment analgesic. It did not last as long as expected, but the results were immediate.

Conclusions
Excellent instant results depending on surgeon, expensive, painful and temporary.
