How long do lip fillers last?

Dr Melanie LambrechtsBy Dr Melanie Lambrechts, MBBCh (Wits).

Short answer

Lip filler usually lasts 6 to 12 months. How long depends on the product, how much is used and how quickly your body breaks it down.

When to see a doctor

Contact us straight away, or go to your nearest emergency unit, if the skin around your lips turns white, grey or blue, if pain gets worse rather than better, or if you notice any change in your vision.
