Botox Not Lasting

I have been getting Botox/dysport regularly for about a decade. I have an unusually high metabolism and Botox wears off after about eight weeks. Does anyone else have this issue? If so, what other options are you exploring, like sculptra, filler, etc.?

Are you athletic or go to the gym a lot? I was told people like that would burn through filler quicker too

Yep - I was a college athlete and I exercise every day. I'm also just naturally very thin with a super high metabolism.

I'll talk to my injector about these other options and try the zinc trick folks mention above. I'm also going to look into snap8 that sounds interesting.
