I've had lip fillers done over the course of 6 years. At this point I probably have about 4 syringes of juvaderm. I haven't had any injections done in the last 2 years however my lips are still very plump and there's still a lot of filler left. I'm scared of the pain to get them dissolved. How long will this filler still stay in my system? How long until they dissolve naturally. I know it says that it'll take about 12 months but for me it's clearly much longer than that.
Answer: Improving Lip Volume with Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Implants, Fat Thank you for your question, Most Doctors will start with one-syringe to avoid over-filling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. PDO Nova threads can also be used to improve shape and also provide lift. Fat or implants are a permanent alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Also, check out my new line of Emerage Cosmetics, it has at home kits that you can do from the comfort of your own home. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: How long Does Juvederm Last Congratulations. At the end of the day, all of our bodies will hold onto the fillers differently. It sounds like yours really likes it. Our bodies will lay down a small amount of collagen, but generally for most patients that is a small amount. I have seen patients hold onto it for 5-6 years. If you develop asymmetries they can be dissolved.

Answer: How long do hyaluronic fillers last? Thanks for the question. Hyaluronic acid fillers, depending on their cross-linking can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years at times. Your body's own hyaluronidase enzyme will continue to slowly break it down over time. There is usually some natural collagen production every time you get the filler injections which also adds to the plumpness. Unless you are having any issues with the filler, I would recommend letting it break down naturally over the next few months. Hyluronidase injections to dissolve the HA fillers are quite effective and have some discomfort similar to the lip filler injections.

Answer: Lip filler Thank you for your question.Lip filler can last anywhere from 6-12 months, depending on the patient. I would recommend just waiting it out, you could try massaging daily to speed the process up. The product that dissolves lip filler can create scar tissue, which cannot be corrected.

Answer: How long does lip filler stay in your system after removal? Typically lip filler gradually is metabolized over 6 to 9 months. If you still have filler present your injector can dissolve it with hyaluronidase. As the filler is made of components naturally produced by your body, there is no harm in having it present.
