How many syringes of juvederm would I need to fill in my nasolabial folds. (photos)

Thank you for your
question.It is common for patients to get one or two syringes of Juvederm to soften the nasolabial folds. To be sure what is best for you, see two
or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to
make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have
treatment.

I hope this helps.

Usually about 2 syringes are used for the parentheses lines as a general rule, but this is patient dependent. See a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon for best results with your injections.

Most people use between 1-2 syringes and that is usually enough. You may want to speak to your doctor to see what they recommend for you. Your lines do not look that deep so may be able to get away with only 1 syringe, but see what your doctor feels. 

Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid filler which mimics the natural occuring substance of our intracellular matrix.  Juvederm is soft, pliable and is commonly placed in the nasolabial folds and marionette lines around the mouth.  Juvederm can last up to a year.Getting the right amount of Juvederm is critical for optimal results.  Too little product results in undercorrection and too much product can be unnatural.  In my opinion, the average patient will require one syringe (1.0cc) for each nasolabial fold and marionette line corrected.  Deeper lines may require three or more depending on the desired level of correction.Juvederm makes a wonderful App for smart phones and tablets which can be downloaded.  This App will allow you to take a photo and select one, two, or three syringes of Juvederm to analyze.  I have found it very helpful for my patients.Also, make sure you elect to participate in the Brilliant Distinctions program from Allergan who makes Botox and Juvederm.  Everytime you get Botox or Juvederm you will accumulate points which apply to discounts on future injections.  There is a Brilliant Distinctions App for your phone where you can keep track of your points and when you are due for more product.  

I suggest you go to a facial contouring specialist who isn't going to just recommend a number of tubes but rather proper placement and best technique for a natural look.  With that said, I am rarely injected in the nasolabial folds anymore.  Typically these form because of fat atrophy above and decent of surrounding fat pads.  I suggest you find someone who knows how to contour and shape your face rather than just inject a wrinkle.  Cannula injections can give improvement with little complications.  Best, Dr. Emer.
