Composed of a sugar molecule that also occurs naturally in the body, facial fillers usually dissolve and are excreted by the body within six to nine months. And if a client wants to get rid of it sooner, an enzyme can be injected into the area, which will completely dissolve the filler in two hours. One risk is that fillers purchased online may contain a variety of non-sterile substances, such as hair gel. When injected, these substances can cause allergic reactions, infections, and the death of skin cells.
Another risk is that an improper injection technique can cause not only swelling and lumps, but also more serious side effects, such as skin cell death and embolism leading to blindness. The FDA has issued an official warning urging consumers to never buy dermal fillers on the Internet. They can be false, contaminated, or harmful. The dermal fillers mentioned are not permanent and break down on the skin over time. And since you've become accustomed to having smoother skin, the reappearance of initial wrinkles may seem to have worsened.
But in fact, dermal fillers can't make wrinkles worse in any way. Over time, as facial movement increases in areas such as the lips or cheeks, it causes the filler to break down and dissolve at a faster rate. This makes the filler disappear faster in the most active areas of the face. As you may already know, dermal fillers are a great way to provide a temporary solution for lines and wrinkles on the face. However, recent studies indicate that repeated and prolonged use of deep tissue facial fillers can cause permanent damage or damage to the lymphatic system of the face.
It's important to note that the decision to use fillers should be part of a short-term treatment plan and that long-term use is not recommended. Many patients fear that when the filling wears out, they will look worse than before. Although fillers can stretch the skin, they are elastic enough to return to its original shape before treatment. However, anything that's too much isn't good for you either. Overfilling an area can stretch soft tissue and cause skin to sag.
Using substandard products or an unstable type of filler can give you unpleasant results, regardless of the facial area you choose to target. If you search the Internet, ask other aesthetic doctors who regularly inject fillers, and then ask patients how long the fillers last, the answer is usually the same; 6, 12, or 18 months. Also known as facial fat grafting, this procedure works by using your own source of fat to improve facial contour and heal scar tissue, provided it is done by a legitimate medical professional. In the past year, Dr. Gavin Chan has discovered something about dermal fillers that has “surprised” him with regard to the longevity of the filler. For extended periods of time, fillers can stretch the tissues under the skin, which essentially speeds up the aging process “because those tissues aren't going to bounce back in the same way as you age” Park Avenue facial plastic surgeon Andrew Jacono told HuffPost. Essentially, over time, the padding stretches and weighs down on the skin, meaning it needs more padding with each doctor visit which will simply stretch out skin and tissue even more.
When patients return to me after 3 weeks of receiving a dermal lip filler treatment and say that their dermal filler is “gone” I now know it hasn't dissolved. With more people choosing to undergo dermal filler treatments there is a misconception that “the more dermal fillers are injected, the better”. The theory is that when dermal fillers are repeatedly injected into meat it causes skin in injected area eventually loosen as fillers weigh it down. Dr.
Mobin Master points out that dermal filler can last much longer than dermal filler brands say. Dermal filler procedures can be costly which has led some consumers to turn to online black market to buy DIY fillers. An ideal solution for failed filler jobs comes in form of hyaluronidase injection often referred as reversal agent for hyaluronic acid-based fillers. Lately we've heard horror stories; inexperienced practitioners using unregulated fillers that cause frozen faces numbness blindness (worldwide around 50 cases of blindness have been reported after cosmetic facial injection) and even death.
