Has anyone in here ever tried Juvederm or anything similar for the wrinkles around your mouth? If you have....can you tell a difference...did you have a reaction of any kind to it and How much did it cost? I know you have not Steve...lol... Thank you! Shirley

Against the advice of my Rheumatologist, I went to my dermatologist and got Juviderm injections two different times. Cost is $500 per vial and that is several shots, but basically one visit. Then, I went back a month later and did it again. Don't ever get Restalyn, that is colagen, and don't get Botox, that is poison.
The juviderm lasts about a year. I still have the wrinkles around my mouth and lower face, but the juviderm did work and it looks a lot better. U can see the results while u r still at the doctor.
So far, no problems and no reactions and it has been 6 months.

ALRIGHT! Thank you so much Cubby! I appreciate your answer hon...... We have so much to deal with with SD so if we can get help with anything...that is a good thing..... Thanks again Cubby, Shirley STEVE....I was not a George Carlin fan very much so I had never heard that before but if he was referring to a hickey on your neck then if you needed a filler for that then I would call it a BITE! LOL! Shirley

I have also had Juvederm and it did help, in fact I am thinking about having it again. The cost here in Maryland is a bit less than Cubby paid, but he is in Calif. so I am sure tha makes a difference. Sammie
