How long does Restalyne Defyne last in the lips? (photo)

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center.
Restylane Defyne is commonly used in the lips and offers natural-looking results. While duration can vary from patient to patient depending on metabolism, it typically lasts 9 to 12 months. Some patients even report that it lasts longer than Juvederm Ultra.

Hi BankofMom44. From my experience, Restalyne Defyne in the lips last ~1 year or so. I hope this was helpful.

While Restylane Defyne does last longer than Juvederm Ultra Plus, the lips are a little different. My favorite long-lasting product for the lips is Voluma (a cousin to the Juvederm family). The lips are a very mobile area of the face and it is easier to metabolize filler in this area compared to others. Ultimately, it is important to keep up with your lip filler touch-ups and consider adding conservative amounts every few months or so. Once you've built your base, your lip filler will last years and you won't need to touch-up as often.  Best, Dr. Anil Shah

It should last longer,  yes. While it is had to truly predict how long they will last for each individual, the price point of Defyne is higher because it is supposed to last longer than that of Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus.

This depends on the age and metabolization rate of the patient however, most results last for 9-12 months. However, younger more active patients tend to metabolize filler quicker. I suggest keeping up with touch ups every 6 months. Best, Dr. Emer.
