Can Juvederm fillers cause someone to look more aged in the long run? (photo)

I appreciate your concern, but I assure you that fillers will not accelerate the aging process if they are performed correctly. The filler amount is not enough to actually stretch the skin. Instead it works deep in the dermal structure to restore support and smooth away wrinkles from the inside out. Even when used for volume, these fillers will not affect the way your skin ages. Make sure you work with a board-certified dermatologist with extensive training in injectable treatments, and I think you will see a very good result.

Thank you for your question and I appreciate your concern. Rest assured that use of fillers will not accelerate the aging process in any way. These products work within the dermal layers to restore support to the structure. This in turn smooths away lines and wrinkles from the inside out. Fillers do not stretch out the skin. However, they also will not stop the aging process and over time, you will notice your skin becomes more lax as a result of this natural process. For now, I would move forward with your treatment knowing it will not have any negative effect on how quickly your skin ages.

at home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (MTS roller with anteage MD ampules weekly from emeragecosmetics.com see eye rolling package for weekly treatment) should be started now to prevent further aging. visit emeragecosmetics.com where we ship medical grade skincare all over the world AND do free virtual skincare consults daily.

For facial rejuvenation, 
1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling
2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors
3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel/halo Viva, Co2/Erbium
4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill
5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting
6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest
7) deep microneedling RF like Fractora/morpheus8 for tightening of the skin
8) Vascular laser like vbeam/excel V or BBL forever young treatment every quarter (3-4 months)
Best, Dr. Emer.

Fillers are a great option for both long and short-term improvement. In the short-term, there is improved volume from the filler and there is some evidence that there can be collagen synthesis that helps in the long-term. In some patients, fillers can cause swelling from fluid retention as the product dissolves, but this is easily treated with hyaluronidase (filler dissolver). I have patients I have been treated with fillers for more than 10 years and it amazes me how much long-term improvement can be accomplished in these patients.

It is best to Have an in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist to go over the strategies to minimize your dream.
Any treatment is only as good as the person performing it.
To answer your question - when done properly fillers should not be causing faster aging. However as we age there is degradatio deflation and descent in five different dimensions. This is why we developed the 5 dimension skin lift. This is the be best non surgical approach
It is important to not just fill but also tighten the skin. I would recommend biostimulatory fillers for you (they stimulate your own collagen) as well as energy devices like co2, accutite and morpheus8 for optimal projection, Volumization, skin tightening
Given what i see in the picture you may very well need a face lift - but even after this it wont address the volume loss and skin quality and texture.
Good luck

Fillers will not cause you to look more aged over time. In fact, keeping up with fillers and maintaining them over time will allow you to stay looking refreshed, rested and rejuvenated. The amount being injected under the skin is so small, it will not cause the skin to stretch. You could also benefit from some cheek filler, which will lift your mid-face and minimize the heaviness of your nasolabial folds. Also make sure to use medical grade skincare and sunscreen to maintain the quality of your skin.

Hello and thank you for your question. The short answer is no Juvederm doesn’t cause your skin to stretch nor does it hurt long term. I would say definitely to go for it and get another treatment, I think you’ll be very pleased. Best wishes.

Fillers will not prevent your skin from stretching, nor will it cause your skin to age faster.  The fillers will break down gradually and you will return to a look similar to what you have now.  It is always a good idea to care for your skin by using medical grade skin care products and wearing sunscreen every day.

Thanks for your question. It’s always smart to find out about any long term effects of something you are having done for a short term benefit. But please don’t be concerned that you would be harming yourself in the long run by having fillers now. It’s just not true. The skin does not stretch out in such a way over a small volume of filler that it will be stretched out when the fillers dissolve. If anything, with significant amounts of fillers, the collagen and elastic fibers increase in the skin and result in even tighter skin. Enjoy your weekend!Sheryl Clark MD FAAD

Fillers are a great idea in both the short and long time. In the shout time they correct problems. Depending on the filler and where it is put, it can last from a few months to many years. I use only the Juvederm family of fillers, none of which last less than 10 months. They also cause some collagen production, which usually means that when the filler absorbs, the problem never goes back to what it originally was. This means that some of the results extend into the long term. Make sure you see an expert who understands fillers and how they work as well as facial rejuvenation.
