Restylane maintenance in the tear troughs

Greetings~ Restylane in the tear troughs tends to last quite a long time in most patients if a full correction is done at the time of treatment. We recommend initial follow up in 1-2 weeks and then in 3 months. The majority of patients don't require a touch up until 6-9 months and many don't even need one then. Unlike the lips and nasolabial folds, the tear trough area is not one that has a great deal of movement that would contribute to the product breaking... more

Resylane - How long does it last?

Most patients return for follow up visits around 6-12 months. The filler is maximal the day the patient is injected, then slowly degrades over time. For this reason, many patients come in at 6-9 months so as to avoid letting the product degrade all the way back down to baseline.

Restylane filler treatment longevity is variable

Restylane filler treatment longevity is variable. I would agree with the previous answers that suggest your results will last LESS than one year.

Restylane - How Often Will I Need to Have Restylane Procedures Done to Keep Up my New Look?

I would count on that or guarantee it, but it's within the known range of the duration of its effects. And it also depends on how much you have injected. However, I don't think it is particularly... more

I truly disagree with the majority of the expert posters on this issue of longevity of Restylane. I find if you get 3 months of effect than you should be very happy.

How Long Will Restylane Last Under Your Eyes

Restylane a filler within the class of hyaluronic acid fillers. Restylane's longevity is variable, but you can expect it to last from 6-12 months under your eyes. Juvederm is also a hyaluronic acid filler, and I find that it lasts longer than Restylane and works better around the eye area. As a treatment for the very dark circles under your eyes, any filler may be disappointing for you. The fillers work very well in that area along what is called the "tear... more

Restylane under the eyes

How long do Restylane injections for dark under eye circles last

Normally Restylane lasts approximately 9-12 months after injection. Under the eyes it can potentially last much longer than that, up to 18 months. The duration depends on a number of things, though. In smokers and people involved in strenuous exercise regularly (such as marathon runners), fillers like Restylane last significantly less time.
