Make Your Face Fillers Last: Tips & Tricks for Longer-Lasting Results

Face Fillers Not Lasting for Long? Here’s What’s Really Happening!

So, I had this chat with a friend the other day who’s been getting dermal fillers for a while now. She told me, “I’ve had two filler sessions, but the results just won’t last more than a month!” Have you realized I always give you real-life examples when writing these blogs? But hey my friends are my inspiration. Anyways, I know you’re reading this because you’ve been there before, you book your appointment, leave the clinic looking fabulous, and then… poof… your plump, refreshed look starts to fade way too soon.

If you’ve ever been there, you’ve probably wondered: why don’t my fillers last as long as I’d hoped? Is there something wrong with my skin? Does my body just not get it? Don’t worry, it’s totally normal to feel this way, and I’m here to break down some of the reasons why this might happen.

1. Your Skin’s Metabolism: It’s All About the Speed!

So, you’ve had dermal fillers done, but your skin seems to “digest” them faster than expected. One of the main reasons some people experience faster breakdown of their fillers is the rate at which their skin metabolizes them. Just like some people have fast metabolisms and burn calories quicker, others burn through fillers faster. Your body works hard to break down the hyaluronic acid in the fillers, and if you’re someone with a naturally higher metabolism, you might notice the effects wearing off sooner than expected.

2. Skin Type and Texture: The Silky, The Oily, and the Dry!

Ever noticed how oily skin tends to shine through a little faster? Well, the same applies to face fillers. If your skin tends to be on the oilier side, fillers may not stay in place as long. Why? Oily skin can accelerate the breakdown of the filler because your body produces more sebum, which can break down the filler quicker. On the other hand, dry skin holds onto fillers a bit longer. So, if you’ve been wondering if your skin type could be why those fillers don’t last long—now you know!

3. Your Age: The Aging Factor is Real!

As much as we love to stay young and vibrant, our collagen and elastin production naturally slows down with age. That means, for some people, the body simply has a harder time holding onto fillers. The more mature the skin, the less structure it may have, which can cause fillers to fade quicker. But don’t worry, there are still plenty of ways to boost that youthful glow and maintain results for as long as possible. That’s where we come in!

4. Lifestyle Habits: Sun, Stress, and Sleep, Oh My!

We’re all guilty of indulging in a little too much fun in the sun, right? But did you know that excessive sun exposure can break down fillers faster? That’s because UV rays damage the skin’s structure, affecting its ability to hold onto those precious fillers. Also, if you’re living that fast-paced life, filled with stress and sleepless nights, your body might not be able to retain fillers as well. Stress can cause the skin to lose moisture and elasticity, which can speed up the breakdown of fillers.

5. Technique Matters: Not All Fillers Are Created Equal

Okay, it’s nonnegotiable that technique matters. While a good practitioner can give you results that last longer, a less skilled approach can lead to fillers breaking down faster. At Silkor, we pride ourselves on using the best techniques and the highest-quality products, so you can rest easy knowing your fillers are in good hands. And of course, we’ll be there to answer all your questions along the way! Oh and for Ramadan 2025 we have a 30% discount on filler treatments, you better not miss out!

6. Your Aftercare: It’s Important in All Situations!

Aftercare is where you can really make a difference in the longevity of your fillers. Proper hydration, using SPF, avoiding excessive massage on treated areas, and keeping up with any post-treatment instructions can all help extend the life of your fillers. If you’re not following these steps, the results might fade a little quicker than you’d like.
