What Happens to Dermal Fillers After Years of Use?

Dermal fillers, also known as injectable implants, are a temporary solution for wrinkles and fine lines. They are injected into the skin to fill and soften it, but they are not permanent and will eventually be absorbed by the body after six months or a year. In areas of the face with more movement, such as the lips, the constant movement of the muscles breaks down and dissolves the filler at a faster rate. Aging causes sagging skin and wrinkles, and while minimally invasive fillers and injections may work for a short time, patients should consider a facelift to reverse signs of aging and improve self-esteem.

Due to the low maintenance factor of most fillers on the market, some of the worst fears people have about long-term use of filler are unfounded. Mobin Master has been referring patients to him especially when he needs to know if the swelling under the eyes is the result of old dermal filler or fat deposits. He also warns his patients who have developed a lump above the lip to dissolve injectable fillers before new filler injections. In addition, he only treats patients with dermal fillers approximately every 12 months, which provides natural results.
