The longevity of the results of dermal fillers depends on several factors, including the type of filler used, the area of the face or body treated, and the individual’s metabolism and lifestyle factors.

Generally speaking, the results of dermal fillers can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years or more. Some of the factors that can influence how long the results last include:

• Type of filler: Different types of fillers have different molecular structures, which can affect how quickly they are absorbed by the body. Hyaluronic acid fillers, which are one of the most common types of dermal fillers, typically last between 6-18 months.
• Location of treatment: Areas of the face that are subject to more movement and activity, such as the lips and nasolabial folds, may require more frequent touch-ups than areas that are less mobile, such as the cheeks.
• Individual metabolism: Some people may metabolize the filler more quickly than others, which can affect how long the results last.
• Lifestyle factors: Certain lifestyle factors, such as smoking and excessive sun exposure, can cause the filler to break down more quickly.

It’s important to note that while the results of dermal fillers are not permanent, they can be maintained with regular touch-up treatments. Your medical provider can advise you on how often you may need to have additional treatments to maintain your desired results.
