Will one syringe of restylane plump both lips?

For almost all cases, one syringe of Restylane will be enough to have adequate filling of the lips. In fact, in my experience, most patients even have a little extra left over to treat other areas of the face at the same time if needed.

A syringe of Restylane or Juvederm provides a fixed volume of filler. The volume necessary to plump the lips varies from individual to individual depending on the physical dimensions of the face and the desires of the patient. If you are considering Restylane or Juvederm, starting with one syringe of Juvederm... more

For some people, yes and others might need a little more. Some need less and there might be left over for other areas if you desire. Restylane does have a smaller syringe so if the doctor thinks you don’t need a full syringe, you might save some money using the smaller syringe.

You might wish to start with 1 syringe. Two weeks after the initial injection when the swelling has settled and you... more

The good thing about Restylane is that you can sneak up a little on the results. If one cc is not enough in your opinion you can have more soon thereafter. What is difficult to do is to remove the fullness if you feel that you are overdone. I stress natural results, and for most people 2cc in the lips is just... more

Typically, I use one full syringe of Restylane to plump both upper and lower lips. In some cases, if a patient wants very large lips, 2 syringes of Restylane is used.

This really depends on your desires. Typically, I recommend no more than one syringe the first time. You will be able to judge the volume of the correction at the completion of the injection: At this point, you will be slightly more swollen than your final result. If you complete one syringe and desire more,... more
