If you find a source for doctor recommendations by location, please share it here.    I live in SF, but do not know where to find first person recommendations.    I have contacted Dr. Serra in Rio de Janeiro, and he has replied promptly.   I also am considering a Dr. Casavantes in Tijuana, MX.   I read good things about both of them, but nothing good about anyone here in San Francisco, CA.

That Radiasse only works for a short time. Its not worth it. Medicare will not cover it.

Can you share where you had this done?  I haven't been lucky with Medicare covering Sculptra or Radiesse.

Uab Hospital in Birmingham Alabama . Also the 1917 clinic , the 1917 is part of UAB but its primary function is treatment of HIV .
