Patient Success Story

A music fan and DJ by profession, Scott likes to feel the beat of his favorite city. But with side effects of his HIV meds, and losing volume in his face, Scott no longer felt confident meeting new people and being in the spotlight. Scott no longer felt as jazzed about his long evenings on the club scene.

Scott’s doctor told him about how RADIESSE could provide long lasting restoration for facial wasting so he decided to give it a try. “Some people want to look younger. As my face began to look more drawn I just wanted to look like I did before. I also liked the idea that I could get into treatment and pretty much be done with it.” He didn’t want hours of doctor’s appointments. As an added bonus, “the effects were instantaneous,” says Scott, “I left the doctor’s office and looked great right away. For the first time in a long time my face matched my mood. It was awesome.” Scott also noted that, “I am so excited about the way Radiesse has made a huge difference in how I look – and how I feel – I recommend it to all my friends.”

These days Scott feels good and looks like himself again. “Looking normal again has made me feel better to do the things that I enjoy, like playing tennis and in general being able to be seen in public and not feel like I have the face of HIV. It’s been two years, and I’m loving this,” says Scott. “I mix the music that gets everyone—including myself—moving. I’m exactly where I want to be.” And the best part? “I never expected the treatment to last this long,” laughs Scott. “I guess I’m like that extended dance mix that just keeps going.”
