Last year I had 1cc of lip filler for the first time. It looked great but it was completely back to normal within a month. I want to get my lips filled again with 2cc but I don't want to waste my money if it's gone again so soon. Does anyone know why it faded so fast? I think they used Restylane.

Answer: Lip Filler Thank you for your question. Lip filler typically lasts 6-9 months, but sometimes you need a few visits to attain the volume desired. Swelling often occurs after filler, so your immediate result will not be your end result. You could also ask about different types of fillers that can give more structure vs. hydration.

Answer: Lip filler Thank you for your question.Every patient is different on how long a product will last for them. If your body metabolizes the product quickly you could try using a different product to see if it lasts longer. Another more permanent option would be fat grafting to the lips.

Answer: Sorry, the type of specialty of the injector does not affect how long the product lasts. What does matter is the correct choice of filler. It is highly improbable that Resytlane was your filler. This product stays put and the peak effects last about 10 to 12 months. One thing that definitely helps is to go to a legitimate practitioner (does not have to be a general plastic surgeon). If you are going somewhere that does not use before and after picture-it is a sketchy office. The photos are actually very helpful to understand what the treatment has done. It is more likely that you received a runny filler like Belotero, Juvederm, or Restylane Refyne. Know your injector and know what product you are getting.
