Shortest duration HA filler? Which HA filler lasts the least amount of time?

Question

I’m in the process of losing weight...and seeing results mainly in my face so far. I’d like to restore the volume but I don’t want something too long-lasting that may not look good if/when my facial proportions change with significant weight loss. Thank you!

Thank you for your question. You can try Belotero. It lasts, in my experience, for about 2-3 months.

Hello, most HA fillers will last 6-12 months, and Voluma will last two years. The duration of the filler will largely depend on where it is injected, as we blink our eyes and use our mouth often and the filler will dissolve quicker in those regions. It will last longer in the mid face and temples. Each filler varies based on mechanical properties as well. Consult an experienced injector who understands facial anatomy.

Hello, Thank you for your question. Juvederm will last appx 6-9 months and can be used throughout the face. Volbella can last 4-6 months but can only be used around the mouth. Hope this helps! Good luck with your weight loss and cosmetic journey!

Waste loss is a good indication for midface volume restoration using dermal filler. My preferred filler for this indication is Sculptra Aesthetic although one of the thicker more cohesive fillers like Restylane Lyft would work as well.
