What is better for fading lips? My lips are losing volume as I am 62 years old. I had juvederm xc last year for above my top lip and it lasted still. I would like the longest filler.

Answer: Juvéderm XC vs. Volbella for Fading Lips Thank you for your question in regards to these Juvéderm products. Juvéderm and Juvéderm Volbella are both hyaluronic acids, but they have different properties. For fading lips that also need volume, a combination of the two may be the most desirable. Juvéderm Ultra XC lasts up to 1 year, and so does Volbella with optimal treatment. Juvéderm Ultra XC gives more plumpness when you need to add volume to the body of the lip, and Volbella is perfect for the fine lines, to add some definition that has faded, and for more conservative filling. We often combine the two, with Volbella providing framework and fine line correction (we call it the "magic eraser") and XC for the actual meat of the lip to add plumpness, according to our client's preference. Lips are very subjective and we use several different products to create the specific look you would like to achieve. Both products are FDA approved to last 1 year with optimal treatment. To find out what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Juvederm Volbella Is Best For Lips Juvederm Voluma XC is ideal to replace lost volume in the mid-face, as the filler is quite viscous. Juvderm Volbella is more appropriate to add volume to the lips or fill in lip lines around the mouth, as it is a thinner formulation that will make the lips look and feel natural. Volbella lasts about 12 months. The final decision on which hyaluronic acid filler to use will be made when your board-certified dermatologist evaluates your anatomy and discusses your desires in an initial consultation.
