Botox and juvederm wearing off too quickly?

December 5, 2016
Asked By:geordie604 in Mississauga, ON

I am 29 years old, frequently get Botox and juvederm but the effects of both only last about 4 weeks! I usually get 70 units of Botox, which is what my 55 year old mother gets (and it lasts forever on her!) And I get 2 syringes of juvederm in the lips... so I know I'm not under dosing! Is there any reason this is happening? I go to different plastic surgeons every time just in case it's a technique issue, but always same results.
