What Happens When I Stop Using Juvederm?

We have in the past fielded a similar question from a patient that thought they might look worse than when they started using Juvederm if and when they stopped. Juvederm has not been on the market for that long so even patients using it since it's introduction should not look any different than they looked before starting it.

No problems when stopping Juvederm

Regardless of filler, Juverderm Ultra, Juvederm Ultraplus, Juvederm Ultra XC, Restylane L, etc., you're no worse off when stopping the filler than when you began. After all the filler wears off in a year or so, the area is not deeper than it was. In fact, there may be some of your own collagen that was formed by the healing after the procedure as proven in studies, so that you may even have a long term benefit when no longer continuing to have the filler injected.

All fillers stimulate collagen to a varying extent, so there is a possibility that the wrinkles will not be as bad as before you started using the filler. Good luck.
