Edmond A. Zingaro, MD answers: Recommended volume of Restylane on upper lip?

Hi. I will be going in for my Restylane injections to my lips and was wondering how much is enough. I have lips already and really only want to add a touch to the top.

Would you say half a vial is enough? Too much? How much is in a vial? Thank you!

Restylane comes in 1 cc syringes.  For your first time, 1 cc is likely enough.  Remember, you can always inject more so be a little more conservative until you understand the results better.  Also, the lips can be injected along the border (white roll) and/or into the body of the lips.  You should discuss this with your plastic surgeon so you can decide where you want the product injected.
