Macrolane after 7 months

For anybody curious about Macrolane after six months or more, here's my update.
I had my Macrolane injections done almost exactly seven months ago. There is now very little of it left. I can feel the Macrolane under the breast and it is about the size of an egg now. In fact I am almost back to how I was before. I reckon it will be totally gone by the ten month to one year mark.
I was never very happy with the result, mine were (and still are) lumpy and stiff. The Macrolane never softened up enough to feel like real breast tissue. I also suffered from blister like lumps on the breast surface which are now thankfully almost gone.
As another poster commented, Macrolane tends to give you a big cleavage (initially anyway) but not an overall natural shape. That was certainly the case for me.

Thanks for your report. One thing I'd been feeling curious about is how long it would really last.

Hi, i had mine done in May and i agree that you can now barely see it. I reckon I should go back to top up much earlier than the 12 months planned. I might not go at all thou since the price is just way too high compared to the results

I agree with that, the price is way too high. That's the problem. If the cost was more reasonable, it wouldn't matter that it wore off so soon. Any chance that the price of macrolane is likely to come down?

Oh dear! Only 7 months later? I can only imagine how long it took to save the money up for it. Probably longer than the results lasted for.
I think I am going to put my idea of having it done aside for now and concentrate on firming and toning up other parts of my body that can't be enhanced with a push up bra.
I do know how you feel in a way, I had restalyn in my face to try to get rid of these horrible marionette lines around my mouth. It didn't do much at all and what little it did do didn't last very long. I bruise very easily so brusing on my face is hard to cover up even with the best make up so it's not an option to keep doing every 6 months. Either is the price I had to pay. The man who did it originally told me I should have a string lift instead but it is €2500 and with all my bruising alot of down time. I am so self-conscious of it. Between that and a flat chest I have lost so much of my self confidence. I will save up for the string lift anyway.
I wish your results would have been better. I do apprechiate you coming here and being honest with us. We are all in the same boat here, some of our boats a bit smaller than others.
Take care.
