How does Restylane Refyne compare to Juvederm and Volbella for lips?

Retylane Refyne, Juvederm products and Volbella (also a Juvederm product) are all hyaluronic acid fillers.  Each HA filler is uniquely formulated to allow for optimal performance in different areas of the face.  For example, some HA fillers (such as Juvederm Ultra XC), are manufactured to give structure and support, while Restylane Refyne is engineered to incorporate into tissue while soften superficial lines without being rigid.  Juvederm Ultra XC and Volbella are FDA cleared for use in the lips and perioral region.  While use of Restylane Refyne in the lips is considered off label, it is certainly known to be done and reasonable in advanced practice.  Your board certified plastic surgeon will assess your anatomy and listen to your desired outcome to select the best HA filler for you.

Refyne is much more mobile than juvederm or volbella. Refyne is designed to be more mobile and flexible in highly mobile areas like the lip and laugh lines.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO
