I had a consultation and was advised to get 1 syringe in each cheek of juvederm Voluma. I’m looking for lost volume in cheeks and for a reduction in nasolabial folds. Do you think this would be enough? Also how long is healing process? Going on July 8 for cheeks and to evaluate lip fillers that were done 5 days ago. I am unhappy with the lip fillers
Answer: Laugh Lines / Nasolabial Folds - Fillers + Sculptra, Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, Radiofrequency, Peels, Skin Care I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting, and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Filler Try one cc in each cheek initially. More can be added later if needed. Please do not get too much filler.

Answer: Voluma Hello and thank you for your question. We would always recommend a face to face consult however in this case 2mls will be enough to give a subtle result- you can always add more over time and do it in stages which some patients prefer.

Answer: Will 2ml of Voluma be enough? It is difficult to tell from just a photo from the front. Side and 45 degree angles would also be helpful in determining how much filler is needed for the cheeks. Historically 1 ml to each cheek should be enough for lateral cheeks. You may need a product such at Juvederm Vollure or Restylane contour for midcheeks. After supporting and contouring cheeks, you may notice an improvement of your nasolabial folds, and may often need less filler in that area once cheeks are addressed. Based on your photo, I would also recommend at least 1ml of volllure to NLFs and 1-2 mls to marionettes/chin area.

Answer: How much Voluma is enough? In general, patients seeking volume replacement in the midface would start with 1-2 mL during the first visit. I usually tell patients to expect they may need additional volume replacement with 1-2 mL more. Although, as a rule I don't even inject more than 2 mL in the malar cheek during the same visit. Often, 2 mL of Voluma in a patient with your degree of volume may yield sufficient results.
