Jaw fillers have become increasingly popular in recent years…And with good reason! As a non-surgical solution way to achieve a sharper, more sculpted jawline, they’re thought of as a way to subtly enhance your existing features.
But how long does jaw filler last? And how can you prolong the results? These are the questions we’ll look at in this blog, exploring factors that influence filler duration and looking at the power of REVOLAX, a leading product known for its impressive results and staying power.
What can you expect from jaw fillers?
Dreaming of a sharper, more sculpted jawline? Jaw-filler might be your answer. Made up of hyaluronic acid which is naturally found in the body, it adds volume and definition to the chin and jawline, creating a more youthful, chiselled appearance. If you want to soften a weak jawline, sharpen your profile, or balance other facial features, fillers can give you that sculpted look.
How long does jaw filler last?
Our body will always break down jawline fillers eventually. The exact time that this takes, however, varies from product to product and between different clients. Here we explore the most common types of jaw filler and how long they typically last:
- Calcium Hydroxylapatite (CaHA) Fillers: These fillers offer up to 12 months of definition, but do have a thicker consistency than other fillers.
- Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Fillers: PMMA fillers have a five-year lifespan. However, it has been linked on occasion to lumps forming under the skin.
- Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers: Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring body substance that the body produces for hydration and plumpness. As such, HA injections, such as REVOLAX can plump up your jawline, smooth wrinkles, and reduce fine lines in a natural-looking way. While the average hyaluronic acid filler lasts between six months and a year, depending on the type of REVOLAX fillers you choose, they can last between nine and 18 months.
Whilst filler type plays a major role, other factors influence its duration:
- Injection Technique: The skill and experience of the injector significantly influence filler placement and distribution. The optimal technique ensures the filler integrates seamlessly within tissues, promoting longer-lasting results.
- Individual Metabolism: Each person’s body metabolises substances differently. A faster metabolism generally leads to quicker absorption.
- Lifestyle Habits: Smoking, excessive sun exposure, and strenuous exercise can accelerate filler breakdown. Conversely, a healthy lifestyle contributes to an extended filler life.
- Skin Condition: Younger people with better skin elasticity may experience longer-lasting results compared to those with more mature or sun-damaged skin.
REVOLAX composition
REVOLAX offers a range of dermal fillers made with magic hyaluronic acid. Think of HA as a tiny sponge that holds onto tonnes of water, keeping your skin plump and dewy…Then imagine REVOLAX as your skin’s best friend, made of super-powered moisture.
Here’s the cool part: REVOLAX’s HA formula is super strong and cross-linked, so it can provide a longer-lasting effect than other hyaluronic acid fillers, even lasting up to 18 months! What’s more, REVOLAX helps your skin build collagen, which is what keeps it firm and youthful without treatments.
REVOLAX provides different formulas to target specific areas, so you can plump lips, sculpt cheekbones, define the jawline, or smooth out under-eye circles with a product that’s exactly the right consistency for that targeted area.
Tips for prolonging your treatment results
Jawline fillers give you that sculpted, defined look, but like all good things, they might eventually need a little TLC. Here are some tips:
- Be gentle post-treatment: Avoid touching, rubbing, or massaging your jaw for at least 24 hours. Friction can disrupt the filler’s settling process.
- Sleep on your back where possible: Snoozing face-down for a few days can put pressure on the treated area, potentially affecting results.
- Sunscreen is your BFF: UV rays break down hyaluronic acid (HA), the main ingredient in fillers. Apply SPF daily, even on cloudy days.
- Skip the sauna and steam room: High heat can increase blood flow, leading to faster filler breakdown.
- Hydrate from within: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin plump and support the HA’s moisture-binding properties.
- Try to avoid grinding or clenching your teeth. To do this, you could wear a retainer when you sleep at night.
- Maintain a healthy weight: Significant weight fluctuations can stretch the skin and affect filler placement.
- Schedule regular consultations: Don’t wait until all the filler is gone. Subtle touch-ups can maintain your desired look and extend the overall treatment lifespan.
