How Many Areas Can a Full Juvederm Syringe Cover?

Thank you for your question. The actual amount of Juvederm in a syringe is 0.8cc - that's about enough to make a significant different in one laugh line, or a moderate difference for both. To stretch it out and do the upper and bottom lip, plus the chin crease, would be tough, but possible. If you did this, you would be very unlikely to see a significant difference after your treatment except for your lips. If I were you, just to be safe, I would do two syringes and make sure that the... more

Hi, This is really dependent on both how deep your lines are, how much correction you want to achieve, and how many areas you want to improve. I usually say for patients with lines above and below the lips, and for moderate lip augmentation, one syringe should be enough. It is always best to start out with less and do more later if you want to! Best, Dr. Liu

If your lines are fine and not deep, yes. If you have moderate smile folds then possibly not. A common reason for disappointment in fillers is that the physician and patient were concerned of cost and not enough volume was used. Incomplete correction does not serve you well. Ask your physician who examines you how many syringes you will need and then make your decision to have it done.

It really depends on how much correction your need and the area to be injected.  Usually for the laugh lines you will need 2 syringes.  I feel that Restylane goes a bit longer since it has 1.0 cc and it is usually overfilled to 1.2 cc. Hope that answers your question.

Hi Aussie, The amount used is dependent on the individual patient and the depth of their lines/folds, and the amount of volume loss that needs to be replaced. Given the multiple areas that you are concerned with, you may need at least 2 syringes to start with. What you do not want to do is to under treat or under correct with say one syringe, trying to spread the Juviderm. When that is done, most patients do not notice much of an improvement, are dissatisfied ("it didn't... more

One syringe of Juvederm is not very much, but it may be enough for you. Everyone needs a different amount of filler. Since Juvederm lasts around 12 months, you can layer Juvederm on top of Juvederm if you feel a need for more. I usually start with a conservative amount, because I know I can always add more later. If one syringe gives you the correction, then you have saved yourself some $$!
