Looking to reduce nasolabial folds in thin face. Whats the approximate amount/syringes it looks like I'd need? (photos)

Hi @surferwh0. Thank you for sharing your photos. I recommend starting with 1-2 syringes.

Best of luck,

Dr. Nima

I would recommend that you use Restylane for both the nasolabial folds and cheeks to help lift the folds.  I would recommend that you use 2 syringes for best results.  While you at evaluating which doctor to choose to perform your treatment, please make sure they discuss the cheek area.  If they do not discuss this, you will not have the best results.

you need a combination of sculptra, fillers and lifting.  I suggest you see an expert.
For facial rejuvenation I would suggest a combination approach of :

1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling
2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors
3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel, Viva, Co2/Erbium
4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill
5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting
6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at restBest, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your pictures and questions. An in-person consultation is best to go over your goals and expectations and review your anatomy. For most patients, I would usually plan on 1-2 syringes of product to accurately correct the nasolabial folds. Hope this helps!

Hyaluronic acid fillers such as restylane or juvederm or calcium fillers such as radiesse usually are the fillers for the nasolabial grooves and run roughly $550-750 per syringe. 1 syringe may be enough but 2 is common.

Based on your pictures I would recommend doing a filler to your bilateral cheeks and your nasolabial lines. I would make a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to have a full consult and discuss your goals. Best of luck to you!

Based on your photos you likely need 1-2 syringes based on your goals for treatment. I think you should be able to get a fantastic result!Best,Dr. Sieber 

HI, 

Thank you for the question. 
If you've never had a filler before, I would recommend Belotero which is one of HA fillers works very good on thin skin.  You may start with 1 or 2 syringes for your smile line and mid face together for natural looking.

Thanks,

You could considering starting with 1 syringe but I would estimate 2 total depending on your goals. I also really like combining platelet rich plasma (your own growth factors) with filler for this - look at vampirefacelift.com for a trained provider.

I would recommend Sculptra for you. Sculptra is an awesome product that encourages your own body to stimulate collagen production. It is delivered to your entire face (and most people, especially thinner people, really could benefit from) , focusing on the perimeter of your face, to address facial aging globally. People love Sculptra because it is gradual, natural looking results , and long lasting. You often need 3 treatments up front (8 weeks apart) then one treatment every 1-2 year for follow up, so it last longer than fillers too. Good luck!
