Correct me if I'm wrong but I hear it lasts 6 months. What does that exactly mean though? Will it slowly degrade over time the moment it's put under my eye, or does it start degrading at the 6 month mark?

Answer: How long does it last? Hello Desmond. When I speak to patients about this I'm referring to the results achieved and not the product. In other words, the results the patient can see will likely last 6 months, but there may still be some product in the body for a while longer. Best wishes, Dr. Aldo

Answer: Under eye filler Very common question. I find that it lasts anywhere from 1 to 2 years for my patients. Part of it has to do that it is an area with low motion - that is, the filler gets metabolized very slowly. Think of HA fillers like filling up your gas tank with gasoline. As the muscles in the area move, the filler gets metabolized by enzymes in the area. The more motion (the bigger the engine) the faster the filler gets metabolized (the faster your gasoline goes down). Most people never wait until their "tank is on empty" for a refill - you will start to notice that the volume needs a little augmenting around after a year plus. I hope some of this helps! Best of luck.
