Many hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm Ultra and Restylane are indicated to last up to 12 months, where as Vollure is indicated to last up to 18 months and Voluma can last up tp 2 years. This is not to say that they might not last longer. There are also semi-permanent fillers such as BellaFill that can last up to 5 years. I would consult with your physician on which type of dermal filler was injected, so that you can be better educated on what to expect from your treatment.

An exam and consultation with an experienced CoolSculpting technician will give you a better idea of what you could expect with CoolSculpting.
