How Prevelle is different from Restylane and Juvederm
You are correct that all 3 are hyaluronic acid fillers. The main difference between Prevelle and Restylane or Juvederm is longevity and cost. Prevelle doesn't last as long, but it also doesn't cost as much. I have used it quite a bit in patients who want results now but can't afford a more expensive product, and in patients who are nervous about how they will look with fillers. This way if they like it, they can return for a longer-lasting product.
Prevelle also has lidocaine in it, so you...

Prevelle Silk vs. Restylane vs Juvederm
One of the newest products on the hyaluronic acid band wagon is Prevelle Silk. This product has been introduced my Mentor Corp., the makers of breast implants and a subsidiary of Johnson and Johnson.
The primary difference with this product is that it is very short lasting. Most of the other hyaluronic acid products last at least six months (Restylane). Preville Silk lasts about 2 months at most.
I love this product for patients that are new to fillers and are concerned what their...

Prevelle silk is a hyaluronic acid filler
Prevelle silk is a relatively new hyaluronic acid based soft tissue filler similar to Restylane and Juvederm. The main differences are that Prevelle Silk contains lidocaine so it is a more comfortable procedure and it is also known to result in less downtime with respect to swelling and bruising. For these reasons, it is an especially great filler for someone starting out who has never been treated with fillers before. Results are not as long-lasting as some of the other fillers as they...

Prevelle is different from Juvederm and Restylane
Prevelle is different from Juvederm and Restylane because it contains lidocaine and because it is "thinner". I use a lot in the lower eyelid area to fill in hollows. The lower eyelid area tends to swell with injections and the swelling lasts longer with Juvederm than with Prevelle. The downside of Prevelle is that it may not last as long but I find in the lower eyelid area that it lasts many months. Hope this helps.

Prevelle
Prevelle is different from Juvederm and Restylane and Perlane in that it has lidocaine premixed into it and it lasts a very short time (3 months v. one year or more). It seems to swell less.
I rarely use it due to its short duration as most people would like their correction to last as long as possible. It is safe but just less effective in duration.

Prevelle vs. other HA fillers
Prevelle lasts about 1/2 as long as Restylane or Juvederm and it cost about 1/2 as those longer lasting fillers cost. I really, really like Prevelle for lips because it is very soft and it doesn't hurt that much when injected. It is also a nice filler for patients who aren't sure if they will like a filler. If they don't like it, it won't last as long. That being said, I've only had one patient out of jillions who didn't like her filler. ...

Prevelle is a very soft dermal filler
All these products belong to the hyaluronic acid family. They are different in terms of their molecular size, cross linking etc.
I found PREVELLE to be a very soft filler that also contains lidocaine. This makes the procedure technically pain free. I was very happy for using it in the fine lines around the mouth, the lips etc.
There is a difference in longivity between the three - Prevelle does last less.

Prevelle Silk is an Excellent Short Acting Dermal Filler That Costs Less Than Juvederm or Restylane
As a plastic surgeon today I am fortunate to have many different options available to correct facial wrinkles, add volume to the face and enhance the lips.
Prevelle Silk is another excellent addition to this group and in my experience is great for the wrinkles around the face and adding volume to the lips. I think of using it in three situations:
1. When a patient can't afford Restylane and Juviderm which which usually costs $500 for each vial. These are also excellent...

Prevelle is a hyaluronic acid with the numbing agent included
Hello,
Prevelle is very similar to other hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane and Captique. It has the advantage of having the numbing agent combined within it so the procedure to place it tends to be more comfortable particularly for areas like the lips.
Best regards.
