Lip fillers are a popular cosmetic treatment used to create plumper, smoother lips with improved shape and definition. Many patients choose lip filler treatments to enhance their pout in a natural-looking way. But how long do lip fillers last? That question is one of the most common questions that patients ask before booking their first session.
The truth is, the duration of results depends on several factors. Most lip fillers last anywhere from 6 to 15 months. The exact lip filler duration can vary based on the product used, your metabolism, your skincare routine, and the injection technique. At BODYWELLE in Miami Beach, Dr. Alonso Martin uses advanced hyaluronic acid fillers and precise injection techniques to deliver long-lasting, personalized results with minimal downtime.
