Dermal fillers longevity? After 2 months, gone!

Question

Dermal fillers, restylene, volume, radiesse, you name it. After 2 mos. gone! Spent $$$$ and fed up. Why can’t they work?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Why Are Filler Results Temporary? Dermal fillers are created using naturally occurring enzymes, such as hyaluronic acid. For this reason, they are metabolized by your body over time. The speed of your metabolism will greatly affect how long your treatment results last.

Atlanta Innovative Medicine · Answer

There are numerous factors that could be contributing to insufficient results, including your body’s unique metabolization, the alignment of treatment with your specific goals, and the experience and expertise of your specialist. Any one or all of these could be at play. Of course, it’s hard to say which treatments we’d recommend for you without this information, but since you’ve struggled to find a treatment that works for you, you may benefit from an integrative treatment that combines multiple techniques for stronger and/or more custom results.

More information is needed to understand what may have happened.  Different fillers are designed to last varying lengths of time and some are created for specific areas.  For example Juvederm Voluma can last up to two years and is designed for the cheek area.  You may have had the wrong product placed for the desired effect.  You may not have received enough product.  I encourage you to meet with your injector to discuss your concerns.
