These last 12-24 months. Moderate thickness fillers are good for adding volume in deep folds of the cheeks and mouth. They are also effect in lip augmentation. They last approximately 10-12 months. Thinner fillers are great for superficial lines of the face and fine lip lines. They tend to last about 8-9 months Do Injections Hurt? Numbing cream is used as as a topical anesthetic to the areas of treatment before it begins. Typically, this is all that is needed.
