Are you curious about facial fillers but afraid of looking “fake” or overdone? In this episode of Create The Best Me, I open up about my real-life filler journey, sharing my experience in “My Facial Filler Experience: Overcoming the Fear of Looking ‘Fake.’” If you’ve ever glanced in the mirror and wished for a refreshed, natural look, not a drastic transformation, this episode is for you.

I sit down with my trusted injector, Karina Moroz of Humminglow Aesthetics Lounge, to discuss everything from choosing the right provider to how we treated my facial volume loss. We talk through Sculptra, fillers, and laser treatments, and why moderation (and a practitioner who’s willing to say "no") is the secret to looking like a revitalized version of yourself, not someone else.

Want to know what the process is really like, what downtime to expect, or how to avoid the dreaded “pillow face”? Karina shares her honest advice so you can approach fillers with confidence, armed with the facts about cost, maintenance, and what “natural results” truly mean.

Five Key Lessons:

  1. Moderation and artistry are essential for natural-looking filler results.
  2. The right injector listens, offers honest advice, and won’t over-treat you.
  3. Fillers should harmonize and balance your facial features; never exaggerate them.
  4. Each person’s anatomy is unique; fillers are customized for your needs and goals.
  5. Building self-confidence is possible at any age with the right treatments and expert guidance. 

Call to Action: 

If you want to age gracefully, boost your confidence, and look like the best version of YOU, this episode is your guide to overcoming fears and finding the right approach to facial fillers.
