I have had juvederm voluma applied to my cheekbones and the results lasted a long time (about 1,5y). 6 months ago I had another treatment with Belotero in my cheekbones and jaw. The treatment was less expensive than the one with Juvederm but now I see the results are already almost completely fading, which is a disappointment if compared to how long the Juvederm lasted. Is this normal when comparing these brands or can it be something related to the application? Thank you
Answer: Belotero Hi! Thank you for your question. These are two very different fillers. Yes, they are both HA's fillers (hyaluronic acid) but they differ from each other in how they are cross-link and are used for different purposes and places. One good way to try to understand how they differ is by thinking of Belotero as a very "thin" filler and Voluma as a "thick" filler. Belotero is cheaper but not as long lasting. In my experience Belotero will last about 6 months for lines in the glabella (between eyes) and forehead. It'll last about 4 months for perioral lines (around the lip). Voluma on the other hand is great for example to augment cheeks and will last about a year or so. I use Voluma if I'm going deep in the tissues, not superficial. In that case, I like to use Belotero. I hope this helps!

Answer: Juvederm Voluma and Belotero Balance Although both Voluma and Belotero are hyaluronic acid fillers, they are processed differently and are used for different purposes in different areas. Voluma will last longer than Belotero Balance but is not appropriate for certain areas such as the lips or tear troughs.
