Will 0.5 ml of Restylane in the lips be enough for a top up? (Photo)

Question

Hello i am looking to get my lips touched up because two months ago I got stylage for the first time I recieved 1 ml. I loved it but I think it is going down alot. I would love my lip shape to be a bit wider in the corners as well as the bottom plumper. Do you think 0.5ml of restalyne will be enough for these changes?

This will depend on the final results you want, but this should give subtle, natural-looking improvement. It takes 1-2 weeks for final results. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. From your photo, your lips look quite full already. However, 0.5ml of Restylane should be good for a touch up to make your lips symmetrical. I recommend having a follow up with your injector to discuss your concerns. Best of Luck!

From the photo that you provided, it seems that your top lip is pretty full, however 0.5ml of Restylane should be fine to make minor adjustments to make sure the lips are symmetrical.  Typically our office does aim for a 40 to 60% ratio for lips, meaning 40% fullness on the top lip and 60% fullness on the bottom lip for a natural appearance.

Although Restylane is not the best filller for lips 0.5 cc should give you some incrase in volume if placed correctly

Your lips look quite full in the photo. Filler can be added almost at anytime. I just tell my patients that if they just had injections, they should wait about two weeks before getting more filler to see how things look after the swelling subsides.
