I recently asked the question why within 1 month my juvederm injections had disappeared and if that is normal. Based on the responses that I received, I realized that I did not provide enough information as one doc said I should have paid for the 2nd syringe. I was injected with a total of 3 ml of Juvederm. Juvederm Ultra XC (1 ml) was used in my lips and Juvederm Ultra Plus XC (2 ml) was used in the nasolabial and marionette lines. Was this not enough injection and caused to disappear in 1 mon?

Answer: Juvederm not responding Juvederm disappearing after one month is quite unusual. Are you certain it was Juvederm? Without pictures its hard to say the cause as I cant determine how deep the lines were to begin with. Its possible the swelling caused the lines to appear filled temporarily and you in fact needed more filler. Juvederm typically lasts 6-9 months however some people do burn it off a little more quickly. You may need a longer lasting filler like Radiesse or Sculptra.

Answer: #Juvederm not lasting It is a bit of a mystery as to why that amount would not last more than a month. It might be helpful for you to look at your before and after photos.You may do much better with Radiesse, which lasts a year or more, or Sculptra, which lasts for two years or more, altho you cannot have either of these fillers to the lips.perhaps what you really need to lift your nasolabial folds and marionette lines is #Voluma in the cheek and jawline area. This filler lasts 2 years or more, and lifts the skin over areas where volume has been lost so that it drapes better over your areas of concern.
