What should results of ArteFill be at 2, 3 or 4 months?

I had ArteFill injected in November and immediately saw results, but the results disappeared after about 1 month. Since the bovine collagen was absorbed, will my face produce collagen in those areas in order for it to fill back in?

Yes, you should be growing your own collagen by 3 months. sometimes patients need an extra one or two treatments . we have you wait 3 months between treatments.

I just got Restylane above my lips (the smoking lip area), and after 3 hours it was completely gone. I am scared to try Restylane under the eye due to my skin absorbing the product too fast. My physician recommended I get Artefill. Would that work? I am 40 years old and my eyes are not too bad.
