Juvederm vs. Restylane. Kinda like "Coke vs. Pepsi"

Jeffrey Roth, MD answers: Juvederm vs Restylane?

From what i can tell juvederm is maybe better than restylane because it lasts longer. Is this true? Are there other things i should take in to account before choosing juvederm or restylane?

Both are hyaluronic acid substances used for filling in lines and wrinkles. They are both very good at what they do. Restylane is like a gel. Juvederm Ultra is like a syrup. Juvederm Ultra Plus is in-between. Having said that, it really depends on the individual patient's needs, and the doctors personal experience with the substance. I have also found that biochemically sometimes one will last longer in a certain patient vs. the other. Again, this is dependent on the individual patient.

Always best to get a consultation or two, and then decide what is best for you...
