How many syringes of juverderm will I need for my nasolabial folds? (Photo)

As a young woman who is starting to notice changes in her face, rather than asking how much volume is required to fill a line, I would suggest obtaining a consultation with a physician who has expertise in facial rejuvenation.  It may be that your best options are things that you have not considered.  An expert will be able to make a plan that is best suited to your needs.

Thank you for your question.Typically one or two syringes of Juvederm can help soften the nasolabial folds. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a
complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for
you to have treatment.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. From the photo it appears as though you will require 1 cc of Juvederm bilaterally. It is always best to have an in person consultation to determine a treatment plan. You can always administer additional syringes if required. Best, 

Hi I,The treatment of using fillers in the face has evolved over the past several years.  In the past we concentrated on "filling lines", such as the nasolabial folds that you are asking about.  Today, we think in terms of your overall facial appearance and correcting/replacing the volume that causes the lines, folds, and wrinkles rather than just filling the wrinkle.  Nasolabial folds (smile lines) are the result of the loss of volume (fat and bone) in your upper face.  It is better to address the cause of your problem rather than just try to fix the result of the volume loss.  Therefore, if you were our patient, we would fully evaluate your facial structure and decide where to put filler that would best suit you.  In general, a patient such as yourself would receive 1 to 2 syringes of Voluma in their upper face before even consideration of putting anything into your nasolabial folds.  Too much filler in the NLF's results in an unnatural "sausauge" appearance.  If I was limited to only filling your NLFs with Juvederm I would conservatively place 1 syringe and recheck you in 1-2 weeks for possibly a little more.  Most importantly, when considering facial filler treatment make sure to choose your injecting physician most carefully based on their experience, skill, caring nature, and natural artisitic vision.  Good luck and be well.Michael Persky, MDEncino, CA

I like to see people in a consult to address their face as a 3 dimensional area that needs lifting and shaping rather than just line filling.  1-2 tubes may fill the line you are looking at but may not address your skin laxity, facial contouring, or the lifting you want as you age.  I suggest seeing a true facial contouring expert who uses cannulas for injections.  Best, Dr. Emer.

The number of syringes of filler that you would need for your nasolabial folds is best determined during an in-person evaluation and examination. On average, for best results at least 1 syringe per nasolabial fold is required, for a total of 2 syringes. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question and photo. It usually takes 1-2 syringes depending on the result you are looking for. You should consult with a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck.

Thanks for your question and thanks for including the photo as well. We always recommend that you make an appointment with a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon and learn the various treatment options for you. In this case, any of the current fillers on the market will help here and Juvederm is certainly one that will give you nice results. The skill of the injector will be the determining factor in how much is needed – one syringe definitely and perhaps two might be needed in your case.

Juvederm is the ideal filler for the nasolabial area.  It will provide the foundation and last for approximately one year.  It will take one or two syringes to treat this area.  For the best cosmetic results please consult a board certified dermatologist with experience with Juvederm and facial injections.

I agree with finding an experienced physician for filler injection, and also with face to face evaluation for determining how much filler you need. But I would also suggest doing some research on available fillers. While Juvederm is the "rage" right now, it might not meet your needs. I prefer Radiesse over Juvederm because it usually lasts longer, and you get more "bang for your buck". While this is usually a good thing, lasting longer can be a curse if you don't like the result. Best of luck to you.           jlr
