Timing and Quantity of Juvederm Injections

Facial fillers provide natural restoration of facial contour and volume. They should be performed in a conservative fashion to avoid complications and an unnatural appearance. I typically focus on one or two specific anatomic regions that can be significantly improved by one or two syringes of Juvederm. This allows a quantitative and exacting approach to facial volume and its restoration with facial fillers. Timing should coincide with the type of injection. Since Juvederm is a... more

Juvederm Max

You never want to over inject due to the risks associated with overinjecting and the fact that it is not cost effective for the patient.

Individual patient needs determines minimum and maximum Juvederm dosages

Depending on the area that needs to be treated and the sensitivity of the patient's skin, it will help determine the minimum or maximum of Juvederm dosages. After the first session, the doctor will be able to better assess how much you can use.

Less is often more with Juvederm

I think a lot of people are wanting a certain level of improvement and may be tempted to use a large amount of Juvederm to achieve that goal.

The problem with that approach is that few people want the appearance of having had "something done". They really prefer subtle improvements that are difficult for others to detect. They want to... more

Is there a limit for Juvederm?

The question is best answered by knowing what area(s) are being treated. Although volumizing (ex: cheek hollows) requires several syringes, sometimes the best approach is a conservative approach. We usually design a treatment plan of two facial areas that we focus on with full correction. Full correction refers to using the correct amount of product to obtain the best outcome and duration. We then have the patient return in 2 weeks for a check up. At... more

Juvederm injections

I don't think that there is a specific number of syringes that you are limited to. However, I don't recall ever putting more than 3 -4 max in only a few patients. Anymore than that, you probably need to do other things, like surgery. A term I have heard is fillerexia when patients get too much filler and look unusual.
