    Received an injection in face next to nose where basal cell cancer surgery had left hardened scar tissue. The injection softened and greatly improved the appearance of the skin/scar tissue. I did not have any noticeable side effects.

    Comment:
    While not long lasting, the injections for knee pain were successful in releaving most of the pain for to 5-6 weeks promoting better mobility. A good temp solution. Dr. Injected both hips. This is the second time for me. Because of frequent use side effects, I only have this done once or twice a year.
