How many injections of radiesse (dermal fillers) do you get on each side of your face? do you get one big injection of radiesse (dermal fillers), or a bunch of smaller ones?

Typically : Typically you get more than one injection. Remember, it's not like a tire being inflated. It's more like spackling that you use to fill in holes in your wall. It only works in the area that you put it in so you have to move the needle around to each wrinkle that you want treated.

I : I would say that in the vast majority of cases more than one injection is done in order to distribute the filler properly.

Radiesse (dermal fillers) technique: The number of pricks depends on individual doctor. I use only one prick on each side and inject as I am pulling the needle out. However some doctors might use 'depot technique' which involves multiple deposits of the material which is then massaged for uniform distribution.

A few: Radiesse (dermal fillers) is used to sculpt the face. Small amounts are placed in various areas of the face to lift and contour. Prior to the injections the areas are outlined so as to be precise in the contouring. Radiesse (dermal fillers) is spread in multiple areas to prevent bulging. It is a wonderful product to sculpt the face. I often use Radiesse (dermal fillers) as part of my "rosenthal liquid facelift". www.artofplasticsurgery.com.
