Posted under Restylane Lyft q&a

Which would be a better lip filler? Restylane L or silk?

cjameson90
I know the silk has a smaller molecule and I believe the L contains lidocaine. I was wondering if there was a difference with the lips and if one will outlast the other? I have very thin lips for a 26 year old and I've always wanted to wear lip stick, but can't because it doesn't look good, so I want to fill them. I've done research on juvaderm and restylane and found more doctors prefer restylane with the lip area. Thank you.
