How Many Areas Can a Full Juvederm Syringe Cover?

One
syringe of Juvederm is 1 ml of the product. The amount of “territory” that can
cover depends on the depth of the wrinkles you want to treat and the amount of
enhancement you desire of the lips. Typically upper and lower lips alone
require 1 syringe depending if you just need the corners of the mouth, or if
the nasal labial folds (the parenthesis) need filling in too.If you try to stretch 1 syringe out to too
many areas, you will not get enough effect anywhere and most likely be
dissatisfied by the results. The best answer is to be evaluated by a board
certified plastic surgeon who can assess your specific situation and come up
with a plan that can adequately address your concerns in the most cost
effective way possible.

Typically a 1 cc syringe of Juvederm Ultra Plus XC can be enough for most patients for treatment of the lips or the nasolabial folds. Some patients may benefit from 2 syringes.  Make sure that the person injecting the Juvederm is a board certified plastic surgeon. Nurse injectors just do not have enough skill, training, education, or expertise to inject fillers.

Thank you for your question.  The quantity of Juvederm required to achieve your desired effect depends on how you present at baseline.  It is unlikely that 1 syringe would cover all of these areas.  Each Juvederm syringe carries 1ml of product.  That's 1/5 of a teaspoon.  Typically the nasolabial folds alone would require a full syringe, and lips at least half of a syringe for modest augmentation.  Without a face to face assessment it isn't possible to determine, however I would expect at least 2 syringes would be necessary. Best of luck.

Thank your for your question.  It is common for patients to wonder how much correction/ enhancement 1 syringe of filler (Juvederm, Restylane, etc) can achieve. 
Most syringes are 1ml  in size (this means they contain 1/5 of 1 teaspoon - it takes 5 syringes to fill 1 teaspoon).  Trying to treat too many areas with one syringe will not give you the result you desire.  Additionally, results will depend on: depth of wrinkles, amount of volume loss and which filler is chosen to use for treatment. 

Your best option is to consult an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon who will fully assess your face and  take into consideration what you want to achieve.  In our office, we create an individualized plan for each patient which details your concerns and gives you options as well as a guide for accomplishing a beautiful, natural result.

How much can be treated with a vial will depend on several factors: Age, Depth of wrinkle, facial size, smoking, sun damage, previous treatment, and weight loss.  In a young patient with minimal wrinkles who just wants a little filling I may be able to treat the lips and corners of the mouth and a little in the nasolabial folds with one vial.  However, another patient with more sun damage who is a little older or who has lost significant amounts of weight may take 2-3 vials or more to get the desired correction in just the nasolabial folds.  If you try to do too little to an area you will frequently be disappointed by the result.  Sometimes I will tell patients that we can make a nice start with 2 vials but it may take 3-4 vials to get more complete correction.  How much you use will depend on how significant the deformity is and how great of a correction you desire.  When you go to a board certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience they should be able to give you a pretty good recommendation based on a thorough exam as to what areas can be treated and what kind of result you should be able to expect and how much it will take to treat the desired areas.  Best of luck on your journey

The answer of how much a syringe covers is really dependent on the depth of the area being treated.  In some patients, a 1/4 of a syringe will offer adequate treatment of a smile line.  In other patients, 2 full syringes may not be enough.  Discuss with your injector what product and estimate how many syringes are needed to achieve your aesthetic goals.
