How often should I get a fill?

I got my first fill on 12/4; I thought I would be filling full right away, but it's not the case. I am now at 3.4cc in a 10cc band. Is it ok for me to go back for another fill? Or, is it too soon?

Cat that is up to your doctor. I got my first fill on December 5th and today was the first day I could really tell a difference. Everyone tells me sometimes it takes up to two weeks to tell a difference.

I heard of some docs that say you can get a fill every 2 weeks. Others say 4 weeks or 6 weeks. I would find out what your doctor's opnion is. Many so you won't feel a difference until about your 3rd fill.

Good luck.
