What Happens when Restylane Wears Off?

You do not have to keep gettng them injected if you dont like the result or for what ever the reason.  Once the restylane has gone away, your lips will go back to normal size and there are no issues.

Dear firepower, As everyone says on this page, for the most part Restylane and Juvederm wear off in 6 months to 12 months (be ready for 12), and on rare occasion (sometimes under the eyes), up to 2 years. That said, there has been recent research suggesting that injection of fillers can signal new collagen building in the injected locations, so there is a possibility of a longer term effect lingering, though probably not noticeable to the naked eye, if injections are only performed one... more

Restylane is probably one of the easiest and most patient friendly procedures I do. When it wears off, that is no problem and it will just go away gradually.
