My forum has been built around the transparent exchange & presentation of information, relying on straight-to-your-face real life experiences instead of penis-pill popup ads. My forum does not push anything, our users, however, may largely have benefited from Dr. C\'s practice --> word-of-mouth propagated by independent users is not the forum\'s fault or responsibility. That\'s like criticizing Yelp the company for a good or bad review of a restaurant.
The (much newer) Commercial Accounts are not owned by a sole account holder, and is open to future doctors and clinics (thus creating healthy competition right here on these forums). They are here to help support the forum financially and they\'ve all been told that I\'m under no obligation to censor material against them or to shill positively for them.
You have been here as long as you have, surprised this isn\'t more apparent.

Never said you or anyone was \"dumb.\" Was instead perplexed by the 100th inquiry demanding
Avanti Derma reveal products/boxes/cc\'s/etc when they\'ve only become increasingly transparent over the years. Hell, with this forum\'s exposure, they had become increasingly obliged to come clean and it appears they\'ve maintained that as it pertains to their products/materials/boxes/etc.
I\'m equally perplexed when members pursue state-side physicians like Dr. Elist & Dr. Loria and don\'t challenge the clinic for information/patent-proof/products/cc\'s/etc but are quick to question the professionalism & ethics of doctors abroad. Not saying you\'re doing this, but by first-hand accounts we know that most state-side patients seldom report demanding nearly the same from international physicians. Just an observation.

Not sure this makes much sense.
PMMA is a permanent filler, thus there is eventually a cap for volume & aesthetics. Anyone who has sought north of 4 rounds is likely doing
Revision/small touch-ups and not full sessions. The real \"keep them coming back\" business is in temporary fillers. Hence why the American market bashes permanent fillers, it potentially eats away at return-customers.
Some people may be salty that they didn\'t get 20cc\'s in the first round, but hats off to
Avanti Derma if they\'re actually reining back what some considered questionable years ago (initial over-injecting which lead to increased aesthetic issues). The idea that they may be saving a few bucks here or there because they opted with 15cc\'s instead of 20cc\'s is what\'s truly ludicrous. You can see right here within many years of progress reports about changes in methodology & technique that the best approach is to make a game-time decision once your unit is examined on an actual procedure table.
Until a credible member has witnessed product/device tampering at this particular clinic, such musings on topics like these are trivial when there is nearly a decade of progress reporting.
