I'm 20 yrs old and I've never had a cosmetic procedure done before. I want to get a few things done but I think I want to work on my lips first because I noticed that my top lip has already started to droop. Do you think I need 2 syringes to get full lips? (I don't really know what I'm talking about but it seems like a lot of people aren't happy with only 1) If you have any suggestions about other cosmetic procedures that would benefit me I would love to hear them! Thank you in advance!
Answer: How many syringes of lip filler do you think I need? Thank you for your question and photograph. I think you are starting from a very good shape and size of lips for an augmentation and I would recommend a single syringe for both your bottom and top lip. If after this treatment you still want your lips to be fuller, you can always add more filler until your desired look is obtained. You have some facial asymmetry to your cheeks and lower jaw region which can be improved upon with additional use of Botox, Kybella and dermal fillers but the decision on treatment rests with your areas of concern. Be sure to see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to maximize your results.

Answer: Lip Augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), PDO Nova threads, Fat, Implants You would get a nice improvement with lip fillers. Most Doctors will start with one syringe to avoid over-filling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a full and symmetrical lip. Nova threads can be used to improve lift and shape. Implants or fat are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert to go over your desired results. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: How Many Syringes of Lip Filler In most cases, I recommend starting with only one syringe of lip fillers - especially if its your first time. Some patients do need to come back for additional syringes, but it is best to start out gradually and work up to the final volume. Another popular combination is a syringe of Juvederm Ultra to add volume and a syringe of Volbella for more definition and filling of fine lines around the mouth at the same time.Good luck

Answer: Lip fillers Hi,Thank you for including your photograph. In the long run, fillers are not the answer if you think the length between the base of the nose and the lip is too long. A lip lift procedure is more appropriate. My philosophy on lip fillers is to go slow. As a point of reference, if you want to go from the lips you have to Kylie Jenner lips, it will take about 6-8 syringes spaced out over several months. I would NOT use more than 1 syringe on your first session for both psychological and physiologic reasons. You are attractive and only 20 years old, I would not be in a rush to get a bunch of other procedures done. Mehdi Sina, MD

Answer: How many syringes of lip fillers do you think I need? Based on your photo I think you will do just fine with one syringe, if it’s only the upper lip you are concerned about. You can start with one and add another syringe if necessary.
