What is the maximum amount of intraline 2 filler recommended per zygomatic arch for heavily scarred skin?
A patient asked 5 years ago I was badly scarred to sub cutaneous and muscle depth at 18 years old. Now 32 I’ve had 11 mils intraline 2 in cheeks. 5.5 each roughly. What is the maximum suggested before complications? I still feel I need another 3 each side.

Hi and thank you for sharing your question! Intraline is not FDA-approved in the US and cannot be recommended. Regardless and based on your picture, I will recommend around 1 syringe of a filler such as Voluma in each cheek to start. Even if my the patient insist on doing more, I would recommend waiting for two weeks for the first injection to fully settle and based on the results and a new assessment, I proceed with more injections if needed. I hope it helps and good luck!
