I am aware that this is something that can only really be properly answered with consultations and/or pictures. However, in general, in a young woman (24) who has few signs of aging but naturally flat cheekbones, how much volume in the cheekbone area would be too much? I am set to have one syringe in each cheekbone to begin with, but we have discussed that I will likely come back for a second appointment. Would a further whole syringe in each cheek be too much for my face and cause distortion?

Answer: Facial Contouring and Sculpting with Fillers (Juvederm Voluma, Vollure, Volbella, Radiesse, Bellafil), Implants, Sculptra or fat It is difficult to say without any photos. However, it is common to use 1 syringe per side to add more volume and highlight your cheeks. Facial sculpting and contouring of the face can be created with well-placed fillers (Voluma, 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

Answer: A little at a time I love Voluma for creating cheekbones! I myself am very flat in that area and use Voluma more to create a cheek than to correct aging. It is hard to say without pictures if 1 syringe is too much or not enough for you. I think the best approach is to use one syringe first. Take a good look...what you see is pretty much what you get with Voluma so the nice thing is that you will know right away if you like the look. One syringe of Voluma has 1ml of fluid. A teaspoon has 5ml so it actually does take a lot to look overdone. If you're feeling nervous, bring a friend who will give an honest opinion.
