I am looking to get face volume restored with fillers, as it became quite hollow over past year. Especially temples, but I have no wrinkles. I was expecting to get max 4 syringes to my whole face, but at consultation I was told I would need 7-8 syringes. I'm 28 and I'm attractive overall. I am trying to figure out if I really need that much? In fairness, I have acne scarring but was told the scarring won't be treated with fillers. Is it unnecessary upselling?

Answer: How many Voluma syringes Hello, and thank you for your question. Full facial harmonization/balancing requires several syringes. Each syringe is 1 ml, which is approximately 1/5th of a teaspoon. Realistically, 1/5 of a teaspoon can only be placed in so many areas to achieve results. 7-8 syringes may be an appropriate amount, but hard to determine without pictures or seeing you as a patient. You could always start with a smaller amount of filler and add more later if need be. I would suggest consulting with another practitioner to see if they have a different suggestion for you.

Answer: Cheeks -- Fat; Fillers like Radiesse, Juvederm Voluma/Vollure, Restylane Defyne/Lyft, Bellafill, Sculptra; Cheek Implants Facial sculpting and contouring of the face can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, Contour, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra, which would give improvement in facial balance. Fat or implants are alternatives. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
