I had restylene silk about a year ago around my mouth to lessen lines. It looked great for about two days. After that time, it was as if I threw $1300 in the trash. I'm told the Restylene Defyn may be a better option but so scared I'll get the same results. Is it possible that some fillers just don't work for some people? Thank you so much for your time.

Answer: Lip filler treatment with Restylane Silk What you were initially seeing probably represented post procedure swelling. Restylane Silk is small particle hyaluronic acid filler which is great for filling in perioral fine lines and adding subtle hydration/volume to the lips. However, in younger patients or those looking for more lip volume, it may not be enough. In these cases I may use Restylane Defyne, Restylane-L or Juvederm Ultra.

Answer: Restylane vs. Juvederm Restylane silk is a small molecule hyaluronic acid based filler. Depending on the amount of correction that is necessary, restylane silk may not provide the level of improvement that you are seeking. You may have mistaken the initial swelling from your previous treatment for correction. Restylane defyne also provides subtle improvement. You may want to consider a filler from the juvederm family of fillers for greater correction.
