Hi and thank you for this great question! No, you do not need to wait for a filler to wear off before a facelift but there is more to this story. Most patients who end up getting a facelift will have, at some point, also received fillers to a wide range of areas within the face (cheek, lower eyelid, mouth and nasolabial folds to name a few). Although prior filler placement is generally not a contraindication to get a facelift, depending on how recently a patient underwent filler placement, it can certainly affect the perception of the soft tissues to be lifted and potentially result in a misguided representation of what needs to be accomplished and what has been accomplished. Proper communication between the patient and surgeon regarding filler history is important to ensure a great result everyone is happy with. Volume lasts approximately 2 years by the way!. Hope that helped. Best, Dr. Roy.
