How many cc of lip filler for desired result? (photo)

Question

About how much filler would I need to acheive this result? & how much can I safely have injected per session to gradually work up to this result?

Nima Shemirani, MD · Answer

Hi @NinaDixon! I would recommend at least 3 syringes for the desired lips shown above. I would recommend 1 syringe per session 4 weeks apart to prevent overfilling. Restylane Kysse and Defyne work great!

Thank you for your question.  I would suggest starting with 1 ml of Juvederm and letting it settle and reviewing after two weeks.  If you want more volume then this can be added.  All The Best

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for sharing your excellent question.  You would require between 2 and 3 syringes to achieve similar results.  I would recommend staging the injections 2-3 weeks apart to allow for resolution of swelling and any bruising before pursuing more.  Hope this helps.

Most doctors will start with one-syringe to avoid overfilling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. PDO NovaThreads can also be used to improve shape and also provide lift. Fat or implants are a permanent alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Dear NinaDixon,
I typically use Juvederm for my lip sculpting. There are two main focuses of lip injections, adding volume and actually sculpting the shape. Both involve injecting the filler in different areas of the lips and patterns.
I would recommend finding a plastic surgeon to perform you lip injections.Most of my patients have results that last at least 6 months.
