I had restylane injection last June, I was not real happy with the results. My plastic surgeon used it nose to mouth lines, top lip & bridge of nose. My top lip did not stay plumped up & nasal labia line is still there. Would restylane lyft be a better solution or Juvaderm xl?

Answer: Filler Choice for NLF's and around the mouth My filler preference for the NLF's and around the mouth is Restylane Refyne or Defyne (depending on the thickness of the patients skin).These 2 filler choices both have what is called expression technology so it is made to be placed in areas of movement as to not cause lumps and bumps. I think if Restylane Lyft is used in that area, you could potentially run into issues of lumps. Depending on how much filler was placed in 1 setting, it could be that you just need more filler to achieve the desired result you are looking for. Keep in mind 1 full 1cc syringe is 1/5 of a teaspoon. I would follow up with your original provider and discuss your options for further improvement.

Answer: Filler This all depends on what you are expecting from fillers. Fillers will soften the nasolabial folds so you will still see the line. Lyft will fill lines better but its a thicker product that could feel lumpy around the nasolabial folds.
