Evolence is not considered a permanent filler. Be patient and you should find that it does all go away, but it might take another six months or more. Your doctor might try to help you by reducing the amount of collagen that is in your filled areas, or at least, to examine you and ensure that nothing else is causing the volume, such as a chronic reaction to the product.
How is this new filler Evolence different from the HA fillers we know and love, i.e. Restylane or Juvederm?
Evolence is a porcine (pig) collagen-based filler. Unlike the first generation collagen fillers, Zyplast and Zyderm which are bovine (cow) derived, skin test is not required. There tends to be less swelling associated with Evolence, as compared to some of the hyaluronic acid fillers Restylane and Juvederm. Therefore, the correction one gets with Evolence is typically exactly the same as immediately post-injection- what you see is what you get.
Unlike the the hyaluronic acid based fillers, Evolence is not a filler that should be injected in the lips or the tear troughs due to the potential of lumps and nodules to form. Evolence also lasts longer than the hyaluronic acid based fillers- up to one year
