Lately, my lips look thin and lack color, so lipstick wears off quickly and makes me look a bit tired. I've been thinking about it for a while, but now I'm considering getting a consultation for lip fillers.
My biggest question is how long it lasts. Some people around me say it lasts about six months, while others say it lasts nearly a year, so I'm confused. I've also heard that the lips absorb faster than other areas because they are constantly talking, eating, and moving, so I'm curious if that's actually true. The corners of my mouth tend to look sunken quickly when I smile, so I'd prefer it to last a long time.
Also, I would like to know if getting a smaller amount of filler for the first time results in a shorter duration, or if there isn't a significant difference. I don't want my lips to look too puffy, so I just want to add a subtle, natural volume.
I would appreciate it if you could let me know how often I typically get re-treatments to maintain the results, and when is the best time for a touch-up. Please also share your experiences if you have had lip fillers!

- 01CommentsI also have a habit of furrowing my brows when concentrating or looking at my smartphone, so I tried it as a preventative measure and was quite satisfied! Even before the creases deepen, slightly relaxing the muscle tension helps correct facial expression habits. Usually, you can feel the tension gradually draining about 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure, and the results seem to last for about 3 to 6 months. Since it is around the eyes, you might be worried about side effects. I recommend asking during your consultation if they thoroughly check your natural eyebrow muscle movements and eyebrow position first, and starting with a small amount to avoid an excessive treatment!4272026.11.11
- 02CommentsI've seen a lot of talk saying that it's better to manage frown lines before they deepen. If it's your first time, I think it would be a good idea to start with a small amount to see if your facial expressions look natural.590026.11.09

- 03CommentsI also got a consultation because I was told I looked tired due to defined lines under my cheekbones when I was expressionless. They told me that nasolabial folds need to be considered in conjunction with cheek hollowing or sagging. Since Botox alone might not solve the problem, make sure to ask about concerns regarding facial movements during your consultation. As someone who had a reality check to see if massages could smooth them out, I think it's faster to just see a professional.4260026.11.04
