Juvederm vs Restylane?

There IS NO BEST  comparison between Restylane and Juvederm. They both contain Hyaluronic acid (HA) which although naturally found in our bodies, has been engineered to last longer by cross linking. They are produced by 2 large multi national corporations that have Billions of dollars to make or... more

 Both are HA fillers, and both are good products.  If you are only injecting one region, there may be a "best" product for that area (I like Juvederm Ultra for the lips, as it feels softer), but if you are injecting multiple regions, then you may want to pick the product that works well in... more

Both Juvederm and Restylane are non-animal derived hyaluronic acid based fllers. As far as which should be used largely depends on what area is being injected. For example, Juvederm is a softer product so I like to use it in the lips, where you need that natural soft appearance. On the otherhand, if I am... more

Juvederm and Restylane are both hyaluronic acid fillers.

This is a very simple question with a simple answer: the best one is the one your doctor feels most comfortable using. In other words, they are very similar but have properties unique to each other that become "user" dependent. I would suggest posing the following question to your dermatologist... more

Both are hyaluronic acid substances used for filling in lines and wrinkles.  They are both very good at what they do.  Restylane is like a gel.  Juvederm Ultra is like a syrup.  Juvederm Ultra Plus is in-between.  Having said that, it really depends on the individual patient's needs,... more

Both of these products are excellent products, and like many of the other physicians in this forum, I use both. Both manufacturers try to convince physicians and patients that their own product is best, but they both DO have a role. Because I am at an academic medical center, I tend to give lots of... more

 After using both of these products for several years and performing hundreds of injections to all the common areas, I find that they are very similar in both effectiveness and duration of action.  In my practice, we find that some patients have a definite bias toward one product or the other... more
