I was fortunate to be involved with Skinstation and be able to witness every doctor’s training. I was able to learn a handful of realistic facts about surgical and non-surgical bits of beauty enhancers.
One of the most controversial of all aesthetic enhancers are what they call botox, face lift, revisage or dermal fillers. It can be applied in almost every part of the body and depending on what the doctors will use.
My first training was with JUVIDERM fillers which was used to enhance the cheeks.
The next training went more exciting as GALDERMA gave us exclusive training under their expense PLUS! we were able to learn and try RESTYLANE on the nose, cheeks, chin and even on the back hand.
*Training was held at KAYA korean restaurant along Jupiter street.
What I liked about restylane is that its natural. It won’t give you problems such as cysts, cancer and other infections. Restylane uses Hyaluronic Acid where it could also be found inside the human body so its safe.
Trainer, Dra. Cristina Puyat thought us how to get their concent when doing the proceedure, how to use dermal fillers with proper administration of anesthesia, tecniques on pain management and even dos and donts of using dermal fillers.
The test was on cheeks and chin.
This was on nose.
With this procedure the enhancements last up to 18 months (well depending on the individual).
and finally on the back hands.
This time with the use of RESTYLANE VITAL LIGHT.
After training we were rewarded with a full meal ^^
Bottom line:
Juviderm is really expensive but it would last pretty longer than natural enhancers like Retylane Lidocane.
For the doctors, Restylane is much easier to administer compared to Juviderm. Why? Because the formulation is softer.
With regards to the results, waiting time for visible results is just minutes for Restylane while Juviderm requires a few hours and a facial massage to get the formula to it its spot and form.
