Your results develop gradually and generally fade over time, rather than disappearing suddenly on a specific date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What Is AestheFill?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AestheFill is an injectable treatment containing biodegradable poly-D,L-lactic acid (PDLLA) microspheres. When you choose AestheFill, you\u2019re choosing a treatment designed to stimulate your body\u2019s collagen production and help improve your facial volume, support and the appearance of wrinkles and folds over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike treatments that mainly fill space beneath your skin, AestheFill works gradually as your body produces collagen around the treated areas. If you want to improve facial support without making your features look dramatically different overnight, you may appreciate how AestheFill helps your results develop naturally over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>So, How Long Can Your AestheFill Results Last?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At LMA Clinic, AestheFill results may last around 12 to 24 months, although this is an approximate clinical range rather than a guaranteed duration for every patient. You won\u2019t necessarily maintain the same level of improvement throughout this period, as your results gradually soften while your natural ageing process continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A large AestheFill trial followed patients for 52 weeks and supports improvement over the first year. A smaller study followed patients for 24 months primarily to assess longer-term safety, but this should not be interpreted as proof that visible correction remains unchanged for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why Does AestheFill Last Longer Than the First-Day Fullness?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you have AestheFill, you may notice immediate fullness caused by the treatment fluid and temporary swelling. As this settles over the following days, you might look closer to your starting appearance, but that doesn\u2019t mean your treatment has disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your longer-term results develop as your body responds to the PDLLA particles and produces collagen over the following weeks and months. This is why you shouldn\u2019t judge your AestheFill results by how you look during the first 48 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When Do the Real Results Start to Develop?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may notice subtle improvements within the first few weeks after AestheFill, such as better support or softer contours in previously hollow areas. Your results develop gradually as your body produces collagen, so you shouldn\u2019t expect to see the full effect immediately after treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have several sessions, your overall result should be assessed after completing the course. A 2024 AestheFill expert consensus suggests final evaluation around two to six months after the last session, although individual progress varies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why Can Your Results Look Better at Six Months Than at Six Weeks?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164100.373-1024x559.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164100.373-1024x559.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164100.373-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164100.373-768x419.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164100.373.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At six weeks after AestheFill, your collagen response may still be developing, so you might not see your full results yet. Research suggests that collagen production continues over several months, with some notable improvements observed around the six-month stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your results may develop at a different pace, so you shouldn\u2019t expect your best outcome on an exact date. Give your treatment enough time to work before deciding with your practitioner whether you need further sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Evidence Note<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AestheFill-specific research supports evaluating results over months rather than weeks. In the older long-term nasolabial-fold study, the greatest improvement on the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale was observed at six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More recently, a randomised multicentre trial involving 260 patients found that 67.6% of AestheFill-treated participants achieved at least a one-grade improvement in nasolabial folds at 24 weeks, with follow-up continuing to 52 weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What Happens Between Six and Twelve Months?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between six and twelve months after AestheFill, you may find that your results look more established, with treated areas appearing fuller, smoother and better supported. A clinical trial involving 260 patients found sustained improvements in nasolabial folds over 52 weeks, although your results may vary depending on the areas treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the end of your first year, you can review your progress with your practitioner and compare your current appearance with your before-treatment photographs. This can help you understand how much of your original improvement remains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An important limitation is that the strongest AestheFill trial followed patients for 52 weeks. A smaller 24-month study was designed primarily to assess long-term safety; it found the greatest nasolabial-fold improvement at six months, with wrinkle scores returning towards baseline by 24 months. The commonly quoted 12\u201324 month longevity range should therefore be treated as an approximate clinical expectation rather than a guaranteed duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What Happens During the Second Year?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During your second year after AestheFill, your visible results may gradually become less noticeable as your face continues to age. In a smaller 24-month AestheFill study, the greatest improvement in nasolabial-fold scores was seen at six months, while scores had returned towards baseline by the 24-month assessment. This means 24-month follow-up should not be interpreted as proof that every patient maintains visible correction for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may want maintenance treatment before reaching two years, while you might remain satisfied with your results for longer. Your practitioner can assess your progress and help you decide when further treatment may be appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does AestheFill Suddenly Stop Working at 24 Months?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, 24 months is not an expiry date for your AestheFill results. Your improvement may gradually reduce as collagen naturally turns over and your face continues to age, so you might notice previously hollow areas becoming more apparent over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You don\u2019t automatically need another treatment once two years have passed. If you\u2019re still happy with your results, your practitioner can assess your face and help you decide whether maintenance is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What the AestheFill Longevity Evidence Actually Means<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Evidence point<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>What it supports<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>What it does not prove<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>24-week improvement<\/td><td>Meaningful improvement can be present around 6 months<\/td><td>Everyone peaks at exactly 6 months<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>52-week trial follow-up<\/td><td>Improvement can persist through the first year<\/td><td>Every patient gets an identical one-year result<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>24-month clinical follow-up<\/td><td>Longer-term safety and outcome data were collected to 24 months<\/td><td>Visible correction remains above baseline for every patient for the full two years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>24-month maintenance guidance<\/td><td>Expert consensus provides a useful reassessment point<\/td><td>Everyone needs a top-up exactly at two years<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>PDLLA biodegradation<\/td><td>Product material breaks down over time<\/td><td>Visible results disappear as soon as particles degrade<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does the PDLLA Have to Remain in Your Face for the Result to Last?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, your AestheFill results don\u2019t depend on the PDLLA particles remaining in your face permanently. The biodegradable material gradually breaks down while stimulating your body to produce collagen, which contributes to the improvement you see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means you may continue to notice benefits even as the injected material undergoes biodegradation. Your results aren\u2019t permanent, as your tissues continue to age, but the visible improvement can last longer than the initial presence of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Research Insight<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laboratory research comparing polylactic-acid fillers found progressive hydrolytic degradation of AestheFill PDLLA, with an in-vitro degradation period of approximately 12 months. This laboratory estimate should not be treated as a direct measure of how long visible cosmetic results last in patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The researchers also cautioned that degradation inside living tissue can differ from laboratory conditions. This helps explain why the physical persistence of the PDLLA material and the duration of a visible collagen-related result should not be treated as the same measurement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does Your Age Affect How Long AestheFill Lasts?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164627.321-1024x559.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164627.321-1024x559.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164627.321-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164627.321-768x419.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T164627.321.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your age can influence how long your AestheFill results last, but your skin quality, collagen levels and degree of facial volume loss also matter. You may need maintenance sooner if your skin shows more advanced ageing or your results fade more quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your practitioner can assess how your results change over time and advise you when further treatment may be appropriate. You shouldn\u2019t follow a fixed maintenance schedule based on your age alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does the Number of AestheFill Sessions Affect Longevity?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At LMA Clinic, a typical AestheFill programme may involve around three sessions, usually spaced approximately six weeks apart. However, there is no universal schedule, and your treatment plan should be personalised to your needs and response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should understand why your practitioner recommends a particular treatment course and when you can assess your final results. This helps you judge how long your improvement lasts after completing your personalised plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does the Area Treated Affect How Long Your Results Last?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, AestheFill longevity can vary between different facial areas. Your anatomy, movement and treatment approach can all influence how long you notice the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. Temples:<\/strong> Results may develop differently depending on the degree of hollowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Cheeks:<\/strong> Your existing volume and facial structure can affect the outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Nasolabial folds:<\/strong> Movement and surrounding support may influence how changes appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Different timelines:<\/strong> One treated area may change sooner than another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your practitioner can assess each area separately when deciding whether maintenance treatment is appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Can Your Lifestyle Influence AestheFill Longevity?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your lifestyle can influence your overall skin health and how your face changes over time, but direct evidence that specific lifestyle habits extend AestheFill longevity is limited. Protecting your skin from excessive sun exposure, avoiding smoking and maintaining a stable weight can support your overall skin health, although these habits cannot guarantee a specific treatment duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AestheFill doesn\u2019t stop your natural ageing process, and your results may fade at a different rate from someone else\u2019s. Your age, metabolism, skin quality and treatment plan also matter, so you shouldn\u2019t blame yourself if your results don\u2019t last as long as expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Does AestheFill Last Longer Than Hyaluronic Acid Filler?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AestheFill works differently from hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers because it stimulates your body\u2019s collagen production rather than relying only on an injected gel to maintain volume. How long your results last will depend on the specific treatment, formulation and area treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A 2024 clinical trial involving 260 patients found that AestheFill performed comparably to HA filler for nasolabial-fold correction, with follow-up lasting up to 52 weeks. However, you shouldn\u2019t assume AestheFill lasts longer than every HA filler, as your best option depends on your treatment goals and desired results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>When Should You Consider an AestheFill Maintenance Treatment?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"559\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T165041.669-1024x559.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T165041.669-1024x559.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T165041.669-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T165041.669-768x419.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/JFAM-2026-10-16T165041.669.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A 2024 AestheFill expert consensus suggests maintenance at around 24 months, while earlier treatment at around 12 months may be considered in selected patients with faster collagen loss or more advanced facial ageing. This is guidance rather than a mandatory schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Compare your current appearance with your before-and-after photographs to help you assess the changes. Your practitioner can then recommend whether you need maintenance and whether to repeat your full treatment course or take a more targeted approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Clinical Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not schedule a top-up simply because you have reached 12, 18 or 24 months. Compare your current appearance with standardised baseline photographs and have the treated areas reassessed before deciding whether further product is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A change in appearance may reflect fading treatment effect, ongoing facial ageing, weight change or changes in a different part of your face. Reassessment helps avoid automatically adding more product when another approach or no additional treatment may be more appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How Can You Tell Whether Your AestheFill Has Actually Worn Off?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You may find it difficult to judge your AestheFill results because you see your face every day. Compare your current appearance with your before-treatment photographs, focusing on the areas you originally wanted to improve, such as hollow temples or reduced cheek support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your practitioner can help you distinguish fading results from new signs of ageing. A 2024 AestheFill expert consensus recommends assessing the overall outcome around two to six months after the final session before deciding whether further treatment is appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>UK Guidance Note<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no NHS or NICE timetable stating that AestheFill must be repeated after 12, 18 or 24 months. The 24-month maintenance interval discussed in this article comes from published AestheFill expert consensus rather than a UK national treatment schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because AestheFill is a facial injectable, safety matters during treatment and maintenance. Rare complications can cause sudden visual changes, severe unusual pain or skin blanching; these require urgent assessment. Call 999 immediately for sudden loss of vision or stroke-like symptoms. Choose a practitioner with an appropriate emergency management pathway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Myth vs Fact<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><td><strong>Myth<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Fact<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>AestheFill always lasts 24 months.<\/td><td>Clinical follow-up extends to 24 months, but individual duration varies.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>The result disappears when PDLLA breaks down.<\/td><td>Collagen-related tissue changes and material degradation are not identical timelines.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Everyone needs maintenance after two years.<\/td><td>Around 24 months is an expert-guidance reassessment point, not a mandatory deadline.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>More sessions automatically make the result last longer.<\/td><td>Session number affects the treatment course, but no fixed number guarantees a particular duration.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>A healthy lifestyle guarantees longer AestheFill results.<\/td><td>Healthy habits support skin health, but direct evidence that they prolong AestheFill specifically is limited.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1. AestheFill has direct clinical follow-up through 52 weeks, while a smaller study provides 24-month long-term safety follow-up rather than proof of maintained cosmetic correction for two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Twenty-four months is not a guaranteed duration or expiry date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. The strongest AestheFill evidence shows that meaningful improvement develops over months, with six months being an important assessment point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. PDLLA particle degradation and visible cosmetic longevity are not the same timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. A typical clinic treatment course does not guarantee a particular duration of effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Maintenance should be based on reassessment of your appearance, anatomy and goals rather than a fixed deadline. Expert consensus suggests around 24 months, or earlier for selected patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1. How long do AestheFill results last?<\/strong><br>At LMA Clinic, AestheFill results may last around 12 to 24 months, although this is an approximate range and individual longevity varies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. When do you start seeing AestheFill results?<\/strong><br>You may notice subtle improvements within the first few weeks as your body begins producing collagen. Your results develop gradually, so allow time for the treatment to work before judging the outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Why can your AestheFill results look better at six months?<\/strong><br>Your collagen response continues developing over several months, so improvements may become more noticeable around the six-month mark. Your individual results and the speed of change will depend on your skin and treatment plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Does AestheFill suddenly stop working after 24 months?<br><\/strong>No, 24 months is not an expiry date for your results. Your improvements usually fade gradually as collagen naturally turns over and your face continues to age.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5. Do AestheFill results last after the PDLLA breaks down?<\/strong><br>PDLLA gradually breaks down while supporting a collagen-related tissue response. However, material degradation and visible cosmetic longevity are different processes, so the breakdown timeline cannot be used to predict exactly how long your result will remain visible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>6. Does your age affect how long AestheFill lasts?<\/strong><br>Your age can influence how long your results remain visible, alongside your skin quality, collagen levels and degree of volume loss. Your practitioner can assess your progress and advise when maintenance may be appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>7. How many AestheFill sessions might you need for longer-lasting results?<\/strong><br>At LMA Clinic, a typical programme may involve around three sessions, usually spaced approximately six weeks apart, although the number and timing should be personalised to your needs and response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>8. Can your lifestyle affect AestheFill longevity?<\/strong><br>Protecting your skin from excessive sun exposure, avoiding smoking and maintaining a stable weight can support your overall skin health. However, these habits cannot guarantee a specific treatment duration, as individual responses vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>9. Does AestheFill last longer than hyaluronic acid fillers?<\/strong><br>AestheFill stimulates collagen production, while hyaluronic acid fillers add volume through an injected gel. Longevity depends on the specific product, treatment area and your individual response, so AestheFill does not necessarily last longer than every HA filler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>10. When should you consider AestheFill maintenance treatment?<\/strong><br>You can consider maintenance when your original results gradually fade and you want to refresh them. Your practitioner can compare your current appearance with your baseline photographs and advise whether further treatment is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Final Thoughts: How Long Does AestheFill Last?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AestheFill results may last around 12 to 24 months, although your skin quality, age, treatment plan and individual response can influence how long you see the benefits. As the treatment stimulates collagen production, your results develop gradually and usually fade over time rather than disappearing suddenly. Your practitioner can assess your progress and advise whether maintenance treatment may be suitable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/aesthefill\">If you\u2019re looking for AestheFill in London<\/a>, you can get in touch with us at the London Medical &amp; Aesthetic Clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>References:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1.
