No, the idea that fillers always lead to sagging over time is a misconception. Fillers are absorbed over time, typically lasting 6 months to 2 years. Sagging may occur if the skin loses elasticity or due to aging, but this does not happen to everyone. Properly performed filler treatments minimize such risks.
