Which is better for plumping the lips... Juvederm ultra smile or Juvederm ultra 3?

Question

I previously have had 1ml of juvederm ultra smile injected on 2 separate occasions (total of 2mls) in the space of 2 months and both times my lips after a couple of weeks have gone back to how they were before I'd had any filler I've booked in to have another ml but want to know if juvederm ultra 3 is better/ whether it will last better, the nurse who does it is even shocked at how drastically my lips have gone back to normal in a small space of time so I don't know if it's just my body?

Typically, when injected PROPERLY, Juvederm should last a minimum of 3-4 months. Another product you could try would be Restylane Silk. It is also a Hyaluronic Acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule in our bodies. It is rare to metabolize a product that quickly, I would revisit your injector.#juvederm   #restylane  #lips

Many consider Juvederm Ultra Plus® XC to be the longest-lasting of the Juvederm® family of lip fillers, however, this varies widely among individuals. The only way to see which is the best is to sequentially try them all!

Hi, I have performed mnay lip augmentations using dermal fillers or various lip implants.  If you had 2 cc's of Juvederm placed within a 2 month period and still don't have adequate lip volume, it might be time to consider a permalip implant.  The Permalip implant is safe, quick and highly effective ta providing permanent lip enhancement.  IMHO, Restylane Silk dissolves more quickly than Juvederm Ultra, so that wouldn't seem to make sense for your situation.Hope this helps.
