Radiesse vs Juverderm

Stephen Mandy, MD answers: Will Juvederm last longer than Radiance?

What's the difference between Juvederm, Restylane and Radiance? I have had a few injections of the Radiance (4 times) and it did not last more than 3 months. It's very expensive that way. I would like to try the Juvederm and wanted to know if it will last longer than the Radiance?

Radiesse is  calcium hydroxyl apatite, a robust filler and correction will usually persist  for about one year.  Juvederm is an elegant hyaluronic acid filler that usually mains a correction for about the same amount of time.  Persistance of corrections is somewhat dependent upon achieving full correction at the start by using sufficient amounts of the filler, and proper placement by the injector.
