I am just starting to see the very start of n/l lines, but have very good skin otherwise and so am looking for a little "perk," not anything "dramatic." It seems like most people I've asked (and online research) favor Radiessse for n/l folds due to longevity, but what I want to know is: which filler is most "natural"? I don't want something hard under the skin and then have to wait 1 year plus for it to wear off, so longevity isn't really a consideration for me. Or are all fillers palpable?

Fillers for nasolabial folds
If tried out of the syringe, hyaluronic acid based fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane, etc) are uniform in consistency and look and feel like a transparent gel. Radiesse is a white filler and has slightly "particulate" feel to it. I think the altimate appearance and sensation of the filler, once injected, depends more on the amount injected, injection technique, and patient's skin quality rather than on the type. I personally prefer Radiesse for the treatment...
