When these two different kinds of dermal fillers get absorbed by the body, does it really get absorbed 100% or does it still leave some residue under the skin which will look like bumps? Which kind lasts longer?

Answer: Juvederm vs. radiesse for smile folds After many years of using fillers, I prefer HA hyaluronic acid fillers compared with Radiesse to inject volume around the mouth as it produces a more natural feeling substance and is reversible should a rare nodule form by using the enzyme, hyaluronidase.The information provided in Dr. Shelton's answer is for educational purposes only and is not intended to constitute medical advice.

Answer: Laugh Lines / Nasolabial Folds - Fillers + Sculptra, Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, Radiofrequency, Peels, Skin Care Thank You for question.I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting, and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer
