I had one of Radiesse last September and again one 2 months ago & see little difference. How many more would I need? And is voluma something I might need less # of syringes with? Thanks!

Answer: Temple Filler Thank you for your question! I typically start with a minimum of 1 syringe per side however every patients anatomy is different. Voluma is a hyaluronic acid filler which is a great option for temples and comes in 1cc syringe size. Radiesse is a calcium based filler which is another great option, however the syringe comes in a 1.55 syringe size so you get more product out of each Radiesse syringe. I suggest scheduling a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for a more thorough evaluation. Hope this was helpful! Best of luck, Dr. Aydin

Answer: Radiesse for temple area rejuvenation Thank you for the great question. The amount of filler needed for a given patient will depend on their specific anatomy. Patients with more volume loss, or a larger head, will need more filler. In my practice, I routinely use Radiesse for the temple hollows. I typically use one syringe per side. Please note that Radiesse syringes are 1.5cc and Voluma are 1.0cc. Both products work nicely in this area, but the Radiesse is a more economical choice. The only potential downside is that Radiesse is not dissolvable with an enzyme; so if for some reason you did not like the effects, you would need to wait for it to wear off. Best of luck and take care!
