Does filler have effects on your face that requires more and more so to even get the same results you had the first time? Like stretching skin or something?

Answer: Filler over time Yes, and no. Fillers add a bit of collagen to the skin so a year after the filler is placed, you might be in a bit better place than when you started. On the other hand, we all continue to age and may need more product over time to correct signs of aging. But fillers do not make things worse.

Answer: Residual Effect of Fillers Although it used to be thought that there were only a couple of collagen stimulating fillers, recent research has shown that most hyaluronic acid fillers stimulate new collagen. This means that some of every filler injected gets converted into collagen, which means that the next time you fill the area the amount needed to achieve the results achieved the last time is less than it was then. Although you continue to age, the residual effect from the last injection seems to over compensate. I have even had several patients get to the point of not returning for refilling some areas. When filling is done properly, the tissues are not stretched, only refilled.
