Answer: Fillers are not permanent Dermal fillers are not permanent; lasting anywhere from 9-24 months depending on the area of the face treated. There is one filler that can last up to 5 years. When they wear off, your facial features are the same and the filler does not make your face look worse. That being said, if you have lost significant weight during this time or have had other medical issues, than you face may appear more "aged" but not due to the filler wearing off.

Answer: Facial volume loss after weight loss Thanks for your question, Leah. It's common to lose facial volume when we undergo dramatic weight loss. The good news is, your facial volume can be restored safely and naturally with dermal fillers. From your picture, it looks like cheeks and tear troughs would be a good place to start with volume replacement. Luckily, filler tends to last a long while in these areas (a year or more). As the filler gets metabolized by the body, you will go back to baseline (you won't become worse than you were before). Smoking isn't helping your skin or tissues of the face, either. If you can kick that habit, your skin will thank you! As always, seek an expert provider to perform these treatments. Hope this helps!
