How Long do Dermal Fillers Last?

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are an injectable treatment that has been designed to be injected into the skin in order to add volume and fullness. This is an option for people who want the area that they have chosen to be more plump than before. A couple of the common places that people choose to have dermal fillers are their lips and their cheeks. 

Laser Skin Care Center provides the dermal fillers that you require, and are all fully licensed medical doctors, aestheticians, or medical assistants. 

Types of Dermal Fillers and How Long They Last

Juvederm®

Juvederm® is a fantastic dermal filler for people who are hoping to recapture the youthful skin that they once had. This filler is made of hyaluronic acid which adds volume to the skin while also hydrating it. Types of this filler include:

• Juvederm® Voluma 
• Juvederm® Vollure 
• Juvederm® Volbella
• Juvederm® Ultra XC
• Juvederm® Ultra Plus 

Each of these has a specific function, so it depends on what results you are hoping to see as to which of these will be the best choice for you. Juvederm® fillers can last anywhere from 10 months to 2 years 

Restylane®

Made from the same hyaluronic acid as Juvederm®, Restylane® is another type of dermal filler. Allowing you to take years off of your aging skin, Restylane® is specifically used for lips, marionette lines, oral commissures and nasolabial folds. Types of this filler include:

• Restylane® Lyft
• Restylane® Silk
• Restylane® Refyne
• Restylane® Defyne

Most of these fillers have success in treating smile lines. However, Restylane® Lyft aids with volume loss in the cheeks and hands. Restylane fillers last anywhere from 10 months to 2 years.

Radiesse®

This is a highly sought after choice in the industry as it works immediately and can last for up to 2 years. This filler is most often used to target wrinkles on the face by stimulating the naturally occurring collagen underneath. 

Sculptra®

The final dermal filler that we are going to look at, Sculptra® is another highly sought after brand. Again, this is because the results can last up to 2 years depending on a number of variables. 

What are the Benefits of Dermal Fillers?

One of the best things about dermal fillers is that they provide immediate results and are long lasting. As such, you don’t have to wait to see the effects like you do with some other treatments. An added bonus to this is the fact that you do not have any recovery or downtime when you use dermal fillers either. You can get straight back to your usual, daily routine with no disruption.

But the most important benefit of all is that it boosts your confidence. Lots of people find that once they have had dermal fillers, they feel much better about their appearance.
