Minor differences between Juvederm and Restylane

Reza Nabavian 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?

I find Juvederm to be a bit softer and easier to inject. I prefer Restylane for injections in the lower eyelid as the product tends to migrate less than Juvederm.

I believe thay have similiar profile on longevity and bruising.

A: Juvederm may last longer than Restylane

Juvederm and Restylane are very safe and powerful facial fillers that are composed of a substance known as hyaluronic acid. This is a substance that is synthetically formulated and that has a very low allergenic profile.

The difference between the two products arises from the amount of cross linking of the hyaluronic acid. The more cross linking, the longer the product lasts. Juvederm has 10% more cross linking and thus may last longer than Restylane.

Restylane and Juvederm are safe injectables for use in the nasolabial folds, lips, and soft tissues of the face and hands.
