What is the difference between having Radiesse vs Restylane filler for nasolabial folds? Which is better? I've had it done with Juvederm but have read that the other two are longer lasting.

Answer: Restylane and Radiesse are different types of filler Restylane and Juvederm are both hyaluronic acid gel fillers that can provide immediate volume to the nasolabial folds, and are both commonly used for this purpose. Radiesse is a different type of filler that actually stimulates the body’s own collagen production using calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres. Radiesse is longer lasting in the nasolabial folds, but Juvederm or Restylane may be appropriate as well depending on the severity of your fold.. I would visit a board-certified dermatologist to discuss your goals and decide on the best treatment plan.

Answer: Radiesse versus restylane Juvederm, restylane and radiesse are all great fillers for the nasolabial folds. More importantly than the product, however, is the qualifications of the injector. There are more advance techniques that can be used to soften the nasolabial fold asides from directly filling them. Also you have other options such as Sculptra or fat grafting that can also provide a nice softening of this area.

Answer: Radiesse & Restylane are very different Radiesse is a calcium based product in a gel that lifts and restores volume. Often, the nasolabial folds are secondary to flat cheeks. The cheeks hold up the face, so when there is no support the skin sags. First ,I fill the cheeks with Radiesse. Radiesse can also be placed in the upper nasolabial fold next to the nose. The remainder of the fold, if it still is very visible, can then be softened with Restylane, a hyaluronic acid product. I prefer Juvederm for this area. The art is knowing where each product works best and injecting it in a manner that produces a natural and rejuvenated appearance.
