How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
HA fillers generally last six to eighteen months depending on the product and area: less in mobile areas such as the lips, more in the cheeks or chin. Biostimulators can last longer. See our article on how long dermal fillers last<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWho Should Consider Dermal Fillers?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Adults in good health who want to restore volume, soften lines or enhance a feature, and who have realistic expectations.

- Skin disinfection and, if needed, a numbing cream.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Injections with a fine needle or cannula, usually in 15 to 45 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWhen injected by qualified professionals using products from legitimate sources, dermal fillers have a good safety record. The most common reactions are mild swelling, redness and bruising. Rare complications require experienced management, and HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. In Canada, suspected adverse reactions can be reported to Health Canada through the Canada Vigilance Program. Established ranges available to Canadian clinics include JUV\u00c9DERM\u00ae<\/a>, RESTYLANE\u00ae<\/a>, BELOTERO\u00ae<\/a>, TEOSYAL\u00ae<\/a> and REVANESSE\u00ae<\/a>, all in our dermal fillers<\/a> category.<\/p>\n\n\n\nReferences<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
