I would like to go get injectable fillers to restore the volume of my cheeks, and the doctor recommended me Teosyal or Juvederm. I'm not sure which to pick; any recommendation? I do have a slight asymmetry with my jawline, but when injecting fillers on my cheeks as long as they are the same amount, my cheeks should look even, right? I don't want to end up having lopsided cheeks. Please let me know if there are any specific questions that I should be asking my doctor before getting the injection.
Hi PP,
Juvederm has a longer track record of effectiveness and safety. I am unable to comment on Teosyal as it has not been approved for use in the US yet, and I have not had any experience with it.
Juvederm Ultra Plus is excellent filler for facial volume. If you are having the delicate lower eye lid included in your treatment, you might ask for Restylane in that area (less likely to swell).
Good luck and be well.
Dr. P
