Should I get juvederm in my marionette lines now or in a year once I've lost 50 lbs? (photo)

Products used for filling are temporary as it is. Most of the product after a year will be dissolved. Therefore, you can get the product now to help with your marionette lines and then have another treatment in a year anyway. The choice is yours. If you lose a large amount of volume in your face you may not be a candidate for filler. Hard to say. All the Best.

Juvederm Ultra Plus works well in the marionette area. The filler typically lasts 6-12 months in this area (all patients are different in terms of the longevity of hyaluronic acid fillers). It is likely that after losing 50 pounds you might require more filler than you do now but there shouldn't be a problem with having Juvederm treatments now despite your plan to continue to lose weight. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

You have prominent marionette lines, so it would be worth filling them now.  This is usually done with perlane, or juvederm ultra plus.  Radiesse is sometimes used as well. Because of the amount of muscle movement in this area, the fillers frequently only last about 6-9 months at which time you can put in some more filler.

Dear Ckom,I have switched to Radiesse in this area to fill in the marionette linesIt is injected in a special way to add support to the lower face and lift the marionette lineAs far as waiting or doing it now...that mostly depends on your budget...It will likely need a touch up by May 2015 even if you get it done nowI do not think it will look weird if you continue to lose weight after injectionsBest,Nima Shemirani

Receiving Juvederm injections now will be effective and will help you achieve your desired look, but if you lose weight there is a possibility that you will need more filler once you have lost it.
