A common question among patients is, how long will my profile balancing filler last? Profile balancing is a bespoke treatment that uses dermal fillers to create harmony between facial features, often enhancing the chin, jawline, lips, or nose for a more proportionate side profile. The longevity of the results varies depending on the areas treated, the filler type used, and your individual metabolism, but most results last between 12 and 18 months.
Profile balancing uses hyaluronic acid-based fillers, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain hydration and volume. When injected strategically, fillers enhance symmetry and definition without changing your natural features. Because these dermal fillers are biocompatible and gradually broken down by the body, results are long-lasting yet not permanent, allowing for gentle adjustments over time.
Several factors influence how long your results will last:
Treatment area: Fillers placed in more static areas, such as the chin or jawline, tend to last longer than those in high-movement zones like the lips.
Regular hydration and healthy skin maintenance can also support longer-lasting results.
To keep your profile balanced and refined, maintenance treatments every 12 to 18 months are typically recommended. These subtle top-ups help preserve symmetry and prevent fillers from fully dissipating. Skincare, sun protection, and non-invasive treatments such as skin boosters or radiofrequency tightening can complement fillers by improving skin quality and elasticity.
On average, results from profile balancing fillers last around 12 to 18 months, depending on your skin, product choice, and lifestyle. Because the treatment is fully customisable, your injector will guide you on the best maintenance plan to sustain a natural, elegant balance over time. With regular review and care, the effects can remain beautifully refined and seamless for years to come.
Profile balancing results typically last between 12 and 18 months, depending on the areas treated, the type of dermal filler used, and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. Fillers placed in structural areas like the chin and jawline often last longer than those in high-movement areas. Regular review appointments and subtle maintenance treatments can help preserve balanced, natural-looking results over time.
Profile balancing with dermal fillers is a customised aesthetic approach that enhances facial harmony rather than focusing on one feature alone. Small amounts of hyaluronic acid filler are strategically placed in areas such as the chin, jawline, lips, or nose to improve proportion and symmetry, particularly from the side profile. The aim is refinement and balance, creating a more cohesive facial structure while maintaining a natural appearance.
Some longer-lasting dermal fillers, such as calcium-based or collagen-stimulating fillers, can last up to two to five years. These are typically used for deeper structural support rather than subtle contouring. However, they are not reversible and require careful consideration. Most profile balancing treatments use hyaluronic acid fillers, which last 12 to 18 months and are preferred for their safety, flexibility, and ability to be adjusted or dissolved if needed.
