How Long Will Dermal Fillers Last?
Dermal fillers can have very different lives in our bodies. Some last for only a few months while others such as fat injections can be permanent. We put the following chart together to serve as a guide for what to expect. You should also consult with your plastic surgeon about what to expect from your dermal filler injections.
Below is a chart that gives the length of time each soft tissue filler will last.
| Dermal Filler | Brand Name(s) | How Long Will It Last? |
|---|---|---|
| Calcium Hydroxylapatite | Radiesse® | Approximately 12 months |
| Collagen | Cosmoplast®, Cosmoderm®, Artefill®, Zyderm®, Zyplast® |
Typically 3-4 months |
| Fat | Depends Upon Individual Re-absorption Rate | |
| Hyaluronic Acid | Restylane®, Jevederm®, Hylaform® | Typically 3-4 months |
| (Poly-L-Lactic) Polylactic Acid | Sculptra® | At Least Two Years |
A note on collagen fillers: while most collagen fillers only last 3-4 months, there are several new products that have the potential to last much longer. Artefil® combines cow collagen with polymethylmethacrylate and may be a permanent solution. Zyderm® and Zyplast® are pig-based collagen fillers that are pending FDA approval. Zyderm® and Zyplast® may last 6-12 months.
