Age waits for nobody, right? It can be incredibly upsetting when you look in the mirror and there seems to be a new line or wrinkle on a daily basis. However, rather than getting upset about it, there are treatments available that can help you achieve plump, youthful, and radiant skin so you can get your confidence back. Dermal fillers are certainly among these treatments. But, how long do they last?
Dermal Filler Overview
Dermal fillers are a non-invasive facial aesthetic treatment that involved an FDA-cleared injectable solution. The purpose of this is to revitalize your skin, create volume and contour, and reduce the appearance of unwanted lines and wrinkles.
Types of Dermal Fillers and How Long They Last
One thing that perplexes a lot of people when they start researching dermal fillers for the first time is the different options that are available to them. There are many different brands and types of fillers, which can make it a little bit overwhelming.
While the make-up of the filler differs, one other area that can be impacted is the length of time that the filler will last before you will need to start looking into getting a top-up treatment.
Juvederm® Family of Fillers
The first option that we offer is the Juvederm® family of fillers, which happens to be one of the most popular dermal filler brands on the market today. These fillers are approved to last for as long as one year.
However, one thing that is important to point out is that everyone is different, and so we all react to treatments in different ways. Some people may feel they need a top-up before 12 months, whereas others may not feel they need more filler once they reach the one-year mark.

For example, if you decided that you want to have Restylane Silk, this can typically last between six and 10 months. However, if you went for Restylane-L, this will typically last between five and seven months.
Am I a Candidate for Dermal Fillers?
Finally, you will probably want to know whether or not this treatment is going to be right for you. The good news is that there are not a lot of people that this treatment would not be appropriate. It is vital that you do not smoke and that you are in good general health.
