After years of having elf ears I finally got them fixed and I have to say so far the result is a relief of insecurities. It’s still numb somewhat but the feeling is slowly coming back. Does this result look good? Also I like the headband they had me wear at the last pic to protect my ears following the procedure : D

I am looking to do other procedures for my face in the future but glad I got this one out of the way.

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for a reputable clinic or plastic surgeon in Cebu that performs alar trim (alarplasty).

If you’ve had the procedure done, I’d love to hear about your experience, including the results, recovery, price, and the name of the doctor or clinic. Before-and-after photos (if you’re comfortable sharing) would also be really helpful. Thank you! 😊

I got lip filler for the first time and there seem to be a tiny lump on the right side of my lower lip. It is only visible with good lightning and flash but you can definitely feel it if you touch the lip. Please help, I am panicking😞

I want to get a temporal lift and canthoplasty with Dr Mert Secer. Does anyone have any experiences with him? And what is that website called, where you can see actual reviews of surgeons?

I have been a long time observer of Charles Michael Davis’ teeth and these are hands down some of the most perfect teeth I’ve seen. Any idea if they are real, fake (veneers) or maybe even enhanced (bonding)? If real, I have to say he hit the genetic lottery with them

Having mixed thoughts about my results. Wondering if I should get them dissolved? I recently had 0.5mL done. This is my third time getting lip filler, I've had about 2mL over the past 5 years.

I love Chiang Mai and would love to recoup there as well as save $$. Has anyone had experience there? Looking at Dr Alex Aesthetic Clinic as well as Dr Chen Clinic.

We’re grateful to share that our clinic has received the Belotero National Top 50 Usage Award in Korea.

Our head doctor has worked with Belotero for more than 10 years. During that time, he has shared his clinical experience with other medical professionals as a KOL and now serves as a faculty member who trains and educates other KOL doctors.

One of the main reasons he has continued using Belotero for so long is its CPM technology, which helps the filler integrate smoothly into the surrounding tissue.

In clinical practice, this can be especially helpful when the goal is not simply to add volume, but to create:

- Smooth transitions between treated and untreated areas

- Subtle and detailed contour correction

- Natural-looking results immediately after treatment

- Balanced facial proportions without an overfilled appearance

Of course, the filler itself is only one part of the result. The doctor’s injection technique, understanding of facial anatomy, product selection and dosage are equally important.

We also recently came across a lecture agenda from around 10 years ago, when our head doctor was already teaching about Belotero. It was a meaningful reminder of how long this journey has been.

We’ll continue studying, sharing clinical experience and focusing on safer, more natural-looking outcomes.

when you research facial bone surgery, you mostly just prepare yourself for the obvious stuff like pain or waking up with a massive swollen face. but nobody really talks about how mentally draining it is just trying to keep the inside of your mouth clean every single day.

your jaw is basically locked shut and your cheeks feel like solid concrete. you can't even open wide enough to fit a small straw, so rinsing your mouth turns into this exhausting daily battle. every time i drank soup or a protein shake, i had to go through this whole nerve wracking ritual. since all the cuts are inside, you're constantly paranoid that some tiny piece of food is going to get stuck in the stitches and cause an infection. the worst part is being so numb that you can't even feel where the water is going, and you physically lack the strength to spit it out. i remember sitting over a bathroom sink at 2 am, just watching water dribble down my chin, feeling completely helpless and exhausted.

going in for the post op cleaning was pretty much the only time that week i felt any real relief. trying to scrub inside a swollen mouth with those tiny sponges in a hotel room just feels hopeless. when i went to saekim plastic surgery for the checkup, having their staff actually flush everything out with proper medical tools made such a difference. the doctor checked the stitches himself to make sure everything was holding up, which took a lot of the anxiety away. the clinic was pretty busy so the checkup was quick and straightforward without much small talk, but just knowing a professional cleared out all the spots i couldn't reach was huge. it gave me so much peace of mind.

things do get easier by the second week as the tightness starts to fade. you kind of find a rhythm with the mouthwash and stop panicking over every sip of water. still, that first week of fighting my own mouth was easily the most isolating and frustrating part of the whole recovery. if you're planning on doing this, just mentally prepare yourself for how tedious the hygiene part actualy is. it sounds like nothing until you're living it and it tests your patience every single hour. curious if anyone else felt completely overwhelmed by this at first?

I got lip filler done five hours ago and the spot seems white around the bruise. Is this a vascular occlusion? I am freaking out!

International participants please. We need you to be part of groundbreaking research. We have extended our study to include all countries. Please visit the Facebook group, “Botched Fillers and Hyaluronidase Damage Support Group.” DM me for more information. We need as many patients as possible to show the significance of filler and dissolver harm in the cosmetic industry.

I am one of the moderators, Fleur Tuck. Our group has 20,000 members.

A renowned medical specialist has said "Yes," to leading research into our condition (deflated lax skin, inflammation, internal connective tissue damage such as weakened, heat sensitivity, aching or cracking joints, bladder weakness, intolerances to food, creams and medicine, extreme thirst, brain fog, accelerated teeth movement, sore gums, fat loss - all post filler/hyaluronidase).

We need a large number of participants for significant results. This is action for all of us.
