Radiesse is a great filler in the face that I use a lot but I would not use it in the lips. It can form lumps that could be felt but sometimes seen. My favorite filler for the lips is Restylane which allows me to she the lips better than with Juvederm.
I would avoid placing Radiesse in the lips due to its tendency to form nodules. Juvederm or Restylane are great options for lip enhancement, however, as they are much smoother and can provider softer, natural results.
Stay away from Radiesse in the lips. It has the tendency to be lumpy when placed in the more superficial tissues such as with lip injections. I wonder if you meant to ask if Restylane is better than Juvederm? I think they are very similar.
Radiesse should not be injected in the lips. Radiesse is made to be injected deep and is great as a cheek filler or for nasolabial folds. Juvederm is an excellent product for lips as it is much softer and leave a natural result.
Radiesse is a fantastic filler product. However, it is too thick for use in the lips. It has a tendency to form clumps and nodules which are difficult to remove with excising them. Radiesse is otherwise great for the nasolabial folds, cheek augmentation and pre-jowl sulcus among other areas. Juvederm, Restylane or other hyaluronic acid fillers are more appropriate for lip augmentation.Stephen Weber MD, FACS
