The result is instant but some areas are prone to swelling such as the lips. This means that the result immediately after the treatment may not be the final result. The swelling typically resolves spontaneously within a couple of days.
There is little downtime so you can resume your normal activities. Some patients may experience some redness and mild swelling, which can be minimized with the application of ice packs. There are specialist foundations available to apply if needed.
As with any sort of injection there can be some bruising and minor swelling, although this is not severe and usually settles within a couple of days.
Typically dermal fillers last from 6-12 months, whilst the fillers used for volume enhancement lasting 12 -18 months. The filler gradually breaks down over time and the area treated will return to its previous appearance.
