Filler in mid cheek area - how long will it take to dissolve naturally and when can I start other treatments?
May 24, 2023
Asked By:Peteerson in Kilsby, England, United Kingdom
Hello, I had a hyaluronic acid filler (Saypha volume plus) injected in mid upper cheek area, injection depth around 2-3 milimeters, 0,5ml per side, injected with cannula. I wanted to have it injected in deeper layers to provide some support for upper tissues but the doctor did it this way. How long it might take to dissolve naturally? Is it ok to do Morpheus8 in this area? How long should I wait after the injection before I do RF microneedling? Thank you
