I love my friends!

Now I don’t know if it’s because they know I’m having treatment but all my friends keep saying I look really well! The results of Sculptra are so subtle that when you look at yourself everyday you can’t see a major difference but the reactions from other people have been really encouraging. Even one of the girls from the zoo who didn’t know I was having Sculptra commented!

Bring on the next treatment I say!

Peanut Head

So I’ve had my second treatment. Angelica anaylsed my face and decided to give me a few more injections in my temple to avoid the ‘peanut head’ look. Sounds strange but think of the shape of peanut in its shell and you’ll get the picture. As we age our faces can get more concave around the temples which is apparently very ageing.

It is a little more painful to have the injections in the temple area but Angelica works very quickly and expertly to ensure it’s over in flash and lets face it no-one wants to be peanut head!!

Angelica is great and I feel completely at ease in her hands. I felt a bit more relaxed his time so I can actually remember a bit more of what she said during my treatment. Apparently I have good cheekbones so she is going to use Sculptra to enhance my natural beauty rather than make me look different – reassuring words as I’m still a little wary of the whole pillow face look but I feel totally confident that Angelica will make me look fab!

I got some brownie points too for using sun cream as part of my daily routine now so I leave feeling quite smug and uplifted!
