Nasolabial folds, 26F, 153cm, 50kg. Will repeated HA fillers wear out my skin? (Photo)

Hi there. Sorry to hear about your ordeal. Stress and lack of sleep can absolutely wreak havoc on your appearance, especially your face. The good news is that you are very young, so your skin will bounce back once you are able to take better care of yourself. Don't do fillers at this time. It will wear off very quickly when you are under stress and yes, repeated fillers can cause undesirable long term changes to your skin especially when started at a young age. Focus on your mental and physical well being and your appearance will improve without any intervention.

I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting, and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

There are many factors that can influence your look. Some include genetics, age, stress, diet, weight loss or gain, and smoking. You may want to begin by creating a good skin routine including medical grade skin care like Transform MD. We recommend wearing sunscreen every day. Reducing your stress levels and eating a healthy, balanced diet is also advised. If you still have concerns you can explore other treatments such as fillers with an expert injector near you.
