Liquid Face Lift?
on 6/25/15 5:58 pm
I am scheduled to have a liquid face lift in a couple of weeks by Dr. Don Fontana in Waldorf, MD. The liquid face lift consists of fillers used in the areas needed. I will definately need in my marionette lines around my nose and mouth and probably my above my eyes. Can anyone tell me about how much this should cost? (They are going to do a consultation right before I have it done, so I just wanted to get a ball park estimate ahead of time.) Also, has anyone gone to Dr. Fontana for fillers? Thanks!

Thank you Tracy! I will try to post pictures. I am not very good with things like that, but will try. Good luck to you with your upcoming surgery too! Can't wait to hear about it!

I get botox twice a year in my forehead and Perlane fillers in my marionette lines once a year, just botox is around 3-400, and with the fillers it is 7-800. I also had fat transfers in the apples of my cheeks done in Mexico years ago, they stayed put but not in my marionette lines, with fat transfers it is a gamble if they will stick.
Few things to keep in mind, Botox takes around 7 days to be fully effective, and the days following you may have a headache (I think from your muscles trying to move still). Try and relax the more relaxed you are the less bruising you will have. And to be honest the Dr. matters! I have an awesome one. Good luck to you

Thank you Mell for all of the information! Didn't know how long it would take to be effective and also, I will try to relax. Thanks again!
