How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?

The duration of your dermal fillers depends on the type of dermal filler you get.

Not all dermal fillers are created equal; that’s because each one is designed with a different formula to treat certain facial areas. For example, one dermal filler may have a thinner hyaluronic acid (HA) formula to treat lips, while another filler may have a thicker HA formula to add volume to cheeks.

The viscosity of the formula is intentional, as it helps produce the most natural-looking results (trust us, no one wants thick HA formula in their lips!). But that does mean the viscosity of the formula can influence how long the dermal fillers last. Thicker formulas tend to last longer, while thinner ones need more maintenance.
