Dermal fillers are ideal for anyone looking to restore the soft, youthful shape of their face. Although some last for two years, others need to be repeated every 4 to 6 months for the best effects. If you are going to be treated for several areas of your face, you may need to visit us more often. When you get in touch and book an initial consultation, your provider will be able to estimate how often you should visit the clinic. Patel's extensive experience with FDA-approved fillers on the market today recommends that most patients receive a filler treatment every 9 to 12 months, except when their lips are being treated.
For lips, most patients need maintenance treatment every 6 to 9 months. Sculptra lasts up to 2 years, but Dr. Patel usually recommends maintenance treatment once a year with 1-2 vials. Most fillers are based on hyaluronic acid, which moisturizes the skin and allows the body to produce higher levels of collagen and elastin.
In other cases, the filler has just exhausted its usefulness, is no longer able to hide insecurities naturally and has forced once-loyal users to seek a more powerful solution, such as surgery. Many of Roskies' patients, for example, worry that they won't be able to simply stop receiving fillers. The body will break down filler particles relatively quickly; however, collagen can, in many cases, last for years. Thanks to the stimulated production of collagen, the results of biostimulatory filler injections can last up to two years.
Alternatively, patients may choose to melt the lip filler with hyaluronidase to take control of the process. While there's no evidence that fillers harm the mother or baby, it's best not to take risks. For this reason, you should always make sure that you visit a high-quality clinic, where you can be sure that professionals are trained in applying fillers. While the effects of fillers can be long-lasting, you'll need to return to the clinic periodically to improve your results.
Biostimulant fillers activate the pump and the body continues to produce collagen long after the injection. For example, a hyaluronic acid-based filler such as Restylane can last 9 to 12 months, while Sculptra, a biostimulatory filler, can last up to 2 years. Many injectables last 6 to 12 months, but the exact frequency of treatment depends on the condition of the skin and the type of filler. that you use.
Fillers injected into the temples and under the eyes tend to last longer, while fillers injected into the lips tend to last less time. This is why biostimulant fillers such as Sculptra tend to last longer than hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm. The lips and mouth move a lot, so the filler tends to last less when injected into these areas. Understanding the different types of facial fillers and the way your body affects them is crucial to achieving the longevity of the results you want.
