Dysport and Fillers with Dr. Christine Fisher
If you’ve read for a few months, you’ve seen my journey into the anti-aging and skincare phase of my life. Thirty-one and thriving in my preventative and correcting regimen.
Today I’m sharing all about my experience with Dr. Christine Fisher, MD, a plastic surgeon and aesthetic skincare office in Austin, TX. Might I add, it might be the prettiest I’ve ever been in. Seriously. The walls, the art, the brass details and the furniture is out of this world.
Treatments are administered by Dr. Christine Fisher and Sandy Lanier, PA-C. Sandy has 10+ years experience in cosmetic dermatology and vein treatments and I felt completely at home and in good hands when I met her. Instead of knowing exactly what I wanted, I went in just with my problem areas. We did before photos in their professional studio (so cool!) and then did a pretty in-depth skin analysis. It measures your age of skin based on every layer. I got 32. A year ahead which isn’t too bad, but I’d prefer to have skin younger than I am! See my stories on Instagram for the process!
Consultation: Next is the consultation, in another gorgeous room, Sandy went over my skin analysis results, looked over my face and neck and then talked through her recommendations. You know the biggest one she had for me? A better daily regimen. A wash, serum, moisturize and protect regimen for adults. An “invest in your skincare” regimen. And she had the best plan of action, too.
Instead of buying all new, expensive products at once, do it over time. When you run out of one product, for example eye cream, replace that with a better one. You are only out of pocket for one item rather than five or six!
Next on to my favorite part… Dysport and fillers. We decided to do dysport in my forehead (or 11’s for you pro’s) and then Restylane under my eyes and around my jawbone. In my skin analysis, my eyes showed the most damage and aging. I was very surprised about that one but it also was one of my biggest pain points.
Process: Dysport was a breeze. Little bit of pain for just a couple of seconds. The filler under my eye was another story. Not crazy painful, but more different than anything I’ve ever done! Watch my IG TV for the process. Sandy is a professional. She uses a simple method to reduce pain and bruising and to ease the process. It wasn’t as scary as I thought and I’m so pleased with the results.
Results: Favorite thing we did?? The under-eye fillers!! Oh my goodness how awake I look!! I don’t need 5 pounds of concealer. Some days I go with no make up and just a splash of mascara. It’s life changing!! The dysport is amazing, too, don’t get me wrong. And I love the look of my jawline but my eyes are insane. I feel and look awake and alive upon waking up in the morning… even without a cup of coffee.
If you’re in the Austin area and looking for a plastic surgeon, medspa or just want a consultation, schedule an appointment to see Dr. Fisher or Sandy. Even if it’s just to sit in the gorgeous waiting room. 🙂
