How Many Restaline Syringes Typically Needed for the Whole Face - Nasolabial Folds, Under Eyes, Crows Feet?

Your question is a very good one.  We want our patients to have great results, and this means filling to "full correction."  It can take only 1-2 syringes in a young person with minimal volume loss, but it can take 6+ syringes in an older patient. 

Trying to answer the question definitively without doing a physical examination is like trying to guess how much air will be needed to reinflate a tire without knowing what the tire looks like. 

The best thing to do is to have a consultation with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.

Good luck!

 

 

 

You'd have to be seen in person to determine your specific needs - without seeing you and assessing volume loss, there is no way to know.

My average patient gets 2 ml of Restylane.  The most I have ever injected into someone's face at one time is 7 ml.  However, I do have many patients who have the equivalent of 10 ml of filler in their face and probably would benefit from more.  The important thing is to find the right injector and recognized that you can ease into what you are looking for.  The product really last much longer than a year for many.  This means that over time you can build up facial volume until you have achieved the volume replacement you are looking for.

There is no way I can answer that without a consulation.  Everyone is different, however, I agree with the physicians.  On average for entire face injections you are looking at anywhere from 2 to 6 syringes maybe more...

 

Hope this helps.

No two patients will be the same in regards to the amount of dermal filler, and many patients will benefit from a combination of dermal fillers. Generally for a full face, you can expect 2 - 6 syringes.
