How Often Should You Really Get Fillers or Botox?

January 12, 2026

If you love the refreshed, confident feeling that comes after your injectable appointment, you’ve probably wondered: How long will it last? Or better yet, how often should you come back to maintain those natural results?

The truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. The frequency of Botox and filler treatments depends on your goals, lifestyle, and how your body naturally metabolizes the product. Here is Utah at Freedom Surgical & Aesthetics, our approach is simple: enhance what’s already beautiful and maintain it thoughtfully.

How Often Should You Get Botox?

Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin work by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles responsible for fine lines and wrinkles. On average, results last 3–4 months, depending on your metabolism and muscle strength.

For most clients, scheduling treatments about three times per year keeps lines soft without losing natural expression. Some find they can go longer between visits as their muscles “retrain” and their results last longer with consistency.

PRO TIP: Staying hydrated, managing stress, and protecting your skin from the sun can help extend the longevity of your results.

How Often Should You Get Fillers?

Dermal fillers — such as Juvéderm, Restylane, and Radiesse — are designed to restore volume, smooth folds, and subtly contour the face. Most fillers last 6–18 months, depending on the area treated, the product used, and your individual metabolism.

For example:

  • Lips & under eyes: typically last 6–9 months.
  • Cheeks & jawline: can last 12–18 months.
  • Collagen-stimulating fillers (like Sculptra): gradually build results that can last over two years.

At Freedom, we take a maintenance mindset; meaning smaller, strategic touch-ups over time to keep your look fresh and natural without sudden changes.

How to Know When It’s Time for a Touch-Up

If you notice movement returning in treated areas, makeup settling differently, or volume slowly softening, it might be time to schedule your next appointment. Most importantly, your injector should guide your timeline based on your results and personal rhythm — NOT a sales calendar.

Freedom’s expert injectors prioritize honesty and balance, ensuring you always look like yourself. Just a little more rested, confident, and lifted.

Every treatment begins with a detailed consultation. We assess your anatomy, discuss your lifestyle, and design a long-term plan that supports natural beauty. No trends. No pressure. Just thoughtful care that enhances your confidence at every stage.
