We do not store syringes for patients, plain and simple. Once the syringe is opened, it is used that day and discarded.
Two weeks might be too long. However, I do not "save" any fillers for patients because there's a higher risk of infection once the sterile packaging is open. Speak with your injector before any treatments.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Thank you for your question. We do not recommend saving syringes, it is best to do the entire syringe on the day of the procedure. But since you have some remaining it would be best to use within 4-6 weeks Please consult a local board certified facial plastic surgeon for more information and a comprehensive consultation
Fillers should never be stored for future use. There is potential for bacterial growth since the needle and syringe had already come into contact with you face or lips.Most professionals will keep extra filler on hand for touch ups, free of charge.
Thank you for your question. A Restylane Silk syringe should last for two years. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist.
Thank you for your question. We do not inject partial syringes of filler. It would be too difficult to maintain an inventory of partial syringes by patient and all the problems that may come from this policy.

I don't think it is safe to open a syringe, partially use it, and save the rest for later since there is a risk for infection. This is the current standard of care. Please make sure to see board certified injectors who have experience in the condition or area you would like treated. Good luck!
the expiration date is listed on the box next to the lit number , your physician should have this information
Under eye hollows are tough. It is sometimes over correction and has to be reversed, but swelling is common because HA fillers draw water. I like PRP under the eyes, but the look takes time. Hope this helps. JB
It's hard to tell from the photo what exactly is going on, but I can see a sore on your lip. This can be treated and possibly prevented in the future with antiviral therapy. I suggest a second opinion with an experienced injector about your results.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)
Thank you for your question. There are many great products for lip filler. Restylane silk is a great filler for lip lines but would consider Restylane or Juvederm to add lip volume. Juvederm Volbella is the newest FDA approved filler for lip lines. It does a great job at softening lip lin...
