Botox is known to last between 3 and 4 months, while Restylane can last up to 9 to 12 months. But what happens when these products wear off? Will your face return to its original state, or will it look worse than before?Many people worry that the added volume of dermal fillers may stretch the skin, leading to additional wrinkles and sagging. However, this is not the case. Fillers are elastic enough to return to their original shape once the product has worn off.
Overfilling an area can cause skin to sag, but if you receive an adequate amount of filler, your skin should return to its pre-treatment state. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers are broken down by the body over time. This means that, in the months after receiving the lip filler, the lips will slowly decrease in volume before returning to their original shape. Some people choose to go for follow-up appointments once the acid dissolves and its effects wear off. The longevity of different brands of dermal fillers varies. Juvaderm, Restylane, Radiesse and Sculptra all have different timelines for how long they last.
It's important to consider what will happen to your face or lips once the filling disappears. At a microscopic level, observations have shown that fillers have long-term benefits for volume restoration and do not worsen wrinkles once they disappear. If you're looking for a way to reduce wrinkles and other signs of aging on your face, dermal fillers may be a good option.
