Juvederm Touchup Quantity

Each patient is different in regards to the amount needed for optimal correction. Generally a touch up utilizes less product than the original dose, but it is based on the amount of correction you need.

Juvederm Touch-ups

Thanks for the question. There is data to suggest that performing touch ups of Juvederm within a year of the initial injection will actually prolong the overall result significantly. Hence, in our practice, I emphasize patients get a modest treatment during the initial visit and return within a few months time for a touch up.  Warmest Regards, Glenn Vallecillos, MD, FACS

Juvederm additonal product

If you havee noticed that the injection of product gave a nice result, but you still need a bit more, than you may need a full syringe or you may not. But it is hard to say without an exam.

Touch-ups usually require less product

If the original correction was adequate, touch-ups require a much smaller volume. Juvederm comes in 0.8cc and 0.4 cc syringes and that may save you money.

Juvederm filler

If you need less as a second treatment, there is a smaller syringe of Juvederm Ultra that can be used and your cost could be less. Discuss this with your doctor.

How much Juvederm is needed for a touch up?

This depends on how long it has been since the original injection and the area injected.  Juvederm can last up to a year, so if the touch up is done less than one year after the original injection, it is possible you may need less product.  However, by a year after the injection, most of the product has dissolved, and you may need similar amounts to the original injection. In certain areas of low mobility, Juvederm may last a little longer.
