What is the recovery time for Facial Line Filling in Spain?

Facial line filling is a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure with minimal downtime. You can:

  • Return to light activities immediately or within 24 hours
  • Expect mild redness, swelling, or bruising that resolves in a few days
  • See visible results within 1–3 days, with the outcome once swelling subsides

For best outcomes:

  • Avoid intense workouts or facial massages for 24–48 hours
  • Stay upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment
  • Follow your specialist’s aftercare instructions carefully
Can Facial Line Filling results be permanent?

  • Hyaluronic acid fillers: 6 to 18 months
  • Calcium hydroxylapatite (Radiesse): Up to 18 months
  • Poly-L-lactic acid (Sculptra): Up to 2 years
