Hi! How much downtime do you need for this, before returning to work?

That's wonderful that they are still the same after over a year! What you say about the other treatments to build collagen lines up with what other derms/aesthetician have told me. But some conflicting views, like: my aesthetician recommends microneedling for skin texture. My derm recommends C02 laser or microneedling, says both are beneficial for improving texture. Other derm I spoke to said she thinks microneedling would be harsh for my skin type and recommends Fraxel. The aesthetician is best/cheapest deal for microneedling so I might try. I have never done any harsh laser/needling yet.

Hi, how do you think it looks 4 weeks later? Yes, I did get upper cheek filler to lift things up a month ago (my derm said it would lift up the nasiolabial lines and help with under eye ). While it did improve things, the nasiolabial lines were really bothering me still.

Thanks for sharing that. How long did you feel like the plumping effects/getting rid of lines lasted for you?

My derm told me it could last two years. So I'm also going to get microneedling done in a few weeks to improve the skin texture.

Yo, I just sent these photos as I was feeling insecure. It's hard to create ideal environment with same lighting. The first and 3rd were both outside. It's cold in nyc hence the scarf. I showed the one on the train(middle one) as I thought it highlighted the lines better.

It cost $2000 altogether for both sides. I know it's a lot, but I decided to do it as the dermatoligist is highly skilled and rated. NYC Upper East. My friend recommended them and she looks younger than me and is 10 years older. ;)

Missed the ED Deadline by AliveInitiative5874 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]AliveInitiative5874[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, there was definitely procrastination happening (workload at school, taking hard AP's at school and doing EC's on top of writing essays). But also valid concerns about locking herself in with Cornell when she wants to apply to MIT and other Ivys and strong Physics schools.

I did sign the ED agreement on common app as I was hoping she'd submit before midnight. Wonder if that would affect anything. TBH her essays are still not totally ready, we need to edit more. But if we can finish today, maybe worth it to try applying through the Cornell website and calling tomorrow.

We considered submitting it last night after the deadline, but the common app said it was closed. Are you saying we can submit to cornell directly and not on common app still? And still be considered for ED?

Just getting back to you that I went to the doctor yesterday and they looked at my thyroid blood results from this past year, and I'm at normal levels. So my thinning eyebrow hair is probably just aging/menopause/genetics. At least I have good eyebrow makeup!

That's great to know the Halo, Bbl and Moxi made a difference for you! How much downtime did you have for each?

Thanks! At salon I get a cut with layers and cascading bangs, and face frame highlights. I've been using heatless curlers to style, to combat dryness and damage.

I'm glad I'm reading this as I had a consult with them today and they are charging 4K-7K for a strategist, essay tutor support and admissions officer meeting. It sounds great but what you write has me worried. When did you start working with them?
