I advise completing your weight loss, and once your weight is stable, then the appropriate amount of filler and depth of injection can be judged.

Will dieting and exercise after getting fillers cause them to get metabolized and leave the body faster than if I were to just maintain my weight? I want the Juvederm to last as long as it possibly can. I've been told it should last a year or even more, especially for someone my age and skin type (I'm 25). I'm just wondering if fillers get metabolized the same way fat does when on a weight loss program.
