How long for Cross linked HA filler to naturally dissolve?

February 3, 2017
Asked By:realtin3131 in Carlow, IE

I was injected with a cross linked HA filler called hydralix luminere in the cheeks. My face is constantly in pain and feels heavy, my doctor said the filler would last 12-14 months, how is this possible, as I thought most fillers only lasted 6-9 months? many thanks.
