How long for Restylane Defyne to show the final result?

Thanks for your question. There certainly can still be swelling 3 days post injection so you should reevaluate things at about 7 to 10 days. However, based on what I can see from the limited photos, most likely if you want your marionette region to look better at this point you will need to address the volume loss in the mid face (cheek region) and/or address the skin laxity that is contributing to the folds- with skin tightening or thread lifting for example. There is only so much that can be achieved with "back filling" the marionette region itself.

I appreciate your concern, but I recommend waiting two weeks to see how your results look at that point. It typically takes Defyne that long to achieve the full outcome. If you are unhappy at that time, a follow-up with your doctor is a good idea. Always choose an injector who has the experience and expertise to produce the best possible result for you.

Thank you for your question. Try not to judge results this soon after the procedure has been done. Allow up to 2 weeks for results to settle. At that point, you should follow up with the injector if you are still unhappy.
