How Many Syringes of Radiesse for Jaw Angle Needed Would Vary Based on Starting Point?

juttingjute
Doctors on this forum such as Dr. Francis Palmer said that in his practice, a male needs 3 syringes of Radiesse for jaw angle "flare out" or augmentation. Wouldn't the amount of Radiesse vastly vary based on the starting point of the patient's jaw angle ? Also with Radiesse, since the carrier gel (70%) dissolves quickly, wouldn't the patients need to probably get 2 injections of a smaller amount of Radiesse each time, spaced 1-3 months apart for a more precise & predictable shape & result ?
