Hi Minden.  As Dr. Shelton points out, it is aommon to use HA fillers in contiguous areas of the face for different applications.  Perlane, which is a thicker and slightly longer filler is often used for the cheeks, while right next door in the nasolabial fold (crease next to nose and mouth), we commonly use Restylane.

Ron Shelton, MD · Answer

It is not unusual to use different fillers in the same area. Perlane for deeper and Restylane superficially, or Juvederm UltraPlus deeper and Juvederm Ultra superficially. If however, the class of filler is mixed and there happens to be a reaction, then you may not know which filler it is and that can be confusing for your doctor and you.

It is possible and quite frequent to layer the same area with different dermal fillers. This technique though should only be performed by an experienced and expert injector.

Ryan Greene, MD, PhD · Answer

You can definitely mix different hyaluronic fillers. In fact, I often will inject Restylane and Perlane in the same treatment session, with great results.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

I often use different fillers over layed in different areas. It is really no problem.  I would avoid the use of silicone.
