thanks for the heads up.
Maybe I missed it, or maybe you didn't mention the exact spot on Fifth Avenue.
It’s been on my mind forever. Honestly, I'm over 30 now and feeling great—I'm healthy and happy, which is everything... but man, when I smile...😍 oh boy...
Hi,
Has anyone been to that place on Fifth Avenue? Does anyone have their number?
If you don't mind sharing, I'd love to hear about your experience. Any side effects like swelling or redness? And how long does that whole process actually last?
Rachel Cruz24 said:Just bumping this thread... anyone willing to share some recent experiences? Feel free to DM me too. I need current pricing... everything I'm finding online is like two or three years old, and I'm guessing prices have dropped since then. I really want to tackle these crow's feet, so if you've done it, roughly how many units are we talking about? thanks
Drew Martinez9 said:has anyone actually done Allergan in their lips?? what kind of price range are we talking about here???

I think you need at least 20 units for the eyes. I don't get why people hesitate 🤷
The vials come in 100-unit sizes, and everything else just goes to waste. You end up dropping $3,000 or even $3,500 on one single vial at some clinics, while others charge by the unit. Once that seal is broken, the liquid has to be used within four hours. Are they actually using expired product?
I’d go for it myself, but looking at who’s actually doing this—dermatologists, estheticians, even dentists—while surgeons charge top dollar makes me second-guess everything. What am I supposed to do? It feels stupid to shell out that much cash when the actual value is $167.
fadedlynx96 said:So, I’ve been thinking about diving into the whole Allergan thing lately, but I wanted to pick your brains first. Specifically, I'm looking to hear from anyone who’s been doing this for a few years now—you know, people who actually have some real-world experience under their belts. What's the deal? Has it actually held up for you over the long haul, or did it just feel like a temporary fix that ended up being a massive headache later on?
I’m currently doing the whole Allergan routine for my entire face. I head in every three months to get a fresh dose, and honestly, everything seems to be going pretty smoothly so far.
The only thing I'm still scratching my head over is whether that part of my face is just going to stay frozen like that forever, or if I'll be stuck on a constant loop of Allergan treatments just to keep things looking normal.
My doctor basically gave me the whole "we'll just have to wait and see" routine instead of actually telling me what's going on. It was super vague, honestly—more like a shrug than an actual medical opinion. Just one of those situations where you're left hanging without any real clarity.
The whole point of going for permanent freezing is that you don't have to deal with constant injections anymore, but honestly, if you overdo it with the Allergan in too many spots, you just end up looking totally frozen—not even being dramatic, it actually looks kind of dead.
So, I was thinking about whether people actually use Allergan for stuff beyond just smoothing out forehead wrinkles. It’s funny how we all jump to the most obvious answer, but there's so much more to it when you start digging into how it's actually applied in different settings. So, I was thinking about that whole "temporary measure" thing we were discussing earlier. It’s funny how often we lean on those quick fixes when things start getting messy, isn't it? It reminds me of this one time back in Chicago when my car's transmission started acting up right before a huge storm hit. Instead of just biting the bullet and taking it to a proper mechanic, I grabbed some cheap additive from an auto shop near Navy Pier, thinking it would just hold things over for a week or two. Obviously, that wasn't exactly a permanent solution, but in the moment, it felt like enough to get me home. It's kind of the same vibe with these kinds of decisions—you know deep down it's just a band-aid, a way to buy yourself some breathing room while you figure out the real move, but there's a certain comfort in having *something* in place, even if it's just a stopgap. You're basically just stalling for time, hoping the actual problem doesn't blow up in your face before you can deal with it properly. Just something to chew on, I guess. So, I was sitting here thinking about this—basically, is there an upper limit to how much Allergan you can pump into your face before things get weird, or can you just keep going indefinitely while you're waiting to scrape together enough cash for the heavy-duty stuff? It’s that classic dilemma, right? You’re either playing the long game, saving up your pennies for a major overhaul, or you’re just riding the wave of micro-adjustments. Honestly, I feel like everyone's in that same boat, just trying to decide if they should go big or stay steady with the small fixes until they can actually afford the real deal.
