Lip filler provide a temporary lifting and plumping affect that is observable immediately following treatment. While the results aren’t permanent, you can expect your lip filler to last between 12-18 months. However, the longevity of your results will be impacted by your age, metabolism, and how well you follow proper aftercare instructions.
 
Younger people tend to metabolize dermal filler faster which means their results may not last quite as long and may require touch-ups sooner than older patients.
 
The injections usually take less than 30 minutes, are given by your healthcare provider, and require little-to-no recovery time as the treatment is non-surgical.

Unfortunately, dermal fillers aren’t permanent and will slowly dissolve over time. For those with a higher metabolism, they may notice that their results don’t last quite as long and that they require a follow up appointment faster than some others.
 
On average, you’ll need your lip filler replenished every 12 to 18 months to maintain your desired volume. You may need it sooner if you metabolize the filler faster, or later if your body doesn’t metabolize it as quickly. Your attending physician will be able to give you a more accurate timeline based on your age, health, and personal aesthetic goals.

For many people, getting lip fillers is a painless, effective, and affordable way to achieve their personal body goals. You are likely a good candidate for lip fillers if you are in good physical health, do not an active oral infection (including cold and canker sores), and have realistic expectations regarding the results of your treatment.  
 
Lips fillers are a great option for those that meet the above criteria and who also want to:
 
– Restore the size of their lips.
– Correct the shape of your lips.
– Add volume to their lips.
– Smooth wrinkles and fine lines around the corners and sides of the mouth.
– Boost their confidence and self esteem.
 
It’s always best to consult with your primary care physician or a certified specialist before starting any new form of treatment. This is to safeguard your health and prevent any potential complications caused by any medical conditions, such as allergic reactions.

As long as you’re over 18, you can start getting dermal fillers whenever you like. Some patients choose to start in their 20’s as a form of preventative skin care, safeguarding their skin from age-related wrinkles, fine lines, and volume loss, while others choose to wait until they have visible signs of aging before pursuing treatment.
 
There is no one-size-fits-all age for starting dermal fillers. Instead, you should take inventory of how you feel and if fillers would help you to feel more confident in your day-to-day life. If you decide that this is an option you’d like to pursue, the next step would be to consult a qualified and certified specialist who can custom design a treatment plan to your unique needs.
