Is this excessive? Three were layered on my temples, three layered on my cheeks, and two layered in my jawline, and one in nasolabial folds. I contacted the practitioner and they said this was perfectly normal and that that she has clients 'who have it every 6-9 months. (3-5 syringes at a time)' -Is this normal? I know it's dependent on the person a lot of the time, but is 9 vials excessive in the space of 6months?

Answer: Radiesse Results--venus legacy, 5/FU steroids The amount of Radiesse used can be variable to the individual and desired results, but that amount isn't necessarily excessive. However, if you're unhappy with your Radiesse results, it can be improved with venus legacy treatments and 5/FU steroids. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist.

Answer: How much Radiesse is too much? There is no upper limit to the amount of Radiesse that can be injected over time, but the amount used will vary for each individual patient. The number of areas being treated as well as the amount of depression in those areas would determine the amount that is used during a treatment. I would not say that 9 syringes of Radiesse over the space of 6 months is excessive in treating the temples, cheeks, jawline and nasolabial folds, but that is more than would be used for other patients who were only having one particular area treated.
