Do lips swell more from Restylane than from Juvederm?

Thank you for sharing your question. Some patients have unusual swelling, especially in the lips. I find that Restylane products usually result in less swelling than Juvederm, especially near the eyelids. Fortunately, all the swelling should resolve. 

Hi there. Thanks for the question. If we're going straight by the water-drawing component of the those fillers, Restylane has 20mg/mL and Juvederm has 24mg/mL...this means that Juvederm technically draws in more water, which MAY result in more swelling. In my experience, this has been the case. My guess would be that the injection technique may have been different than last time or your body is just responding differently to the Restylane than it did to the Juvederm. Good news is that most swelling is down at about 3 days and by 7 days you're wanting more filler! ;)
Some ice and ibuprofen are ok too. If the swelling gets worse, call you injector. We always want to know and some will give you a Rx for a prescription anti-inflammatory steroid if they feel you need it.
Here's to your healed lips!!
