Is filler meant to last 3 years?

siobhan_lamJan 28, 2024
Hi, I got lip filler for the first time in 2021, by a board certified doctor. I got juvederm 1ml. She did a beautiful job, looks amazing. But I have never had it touched up and 3 years later my lips are still “swollen.” I can’t feel the filler and they still look good. But is it normal for it to last this long?

This is lip shelf. It is the result of being injected with a runny filler. The public has been told that fillers persist for about a year. But this is entirely not accurate. While the wonderful clinical effect may persist for 9 to 12 months, the volume itself does not simply disappear. Rather it...
