I don’t want a a super hydrophilic in my lips.
Answer: Less hydrophilic filler I like the Juvederm Volbella in the lip. Very minimal swelling, mostly from just the trauma of a needle stick. Vobella is injected with a smaller needle as compared to Juvy Ultra so not as much needle trauma. I also use Juvederm Ultra XC for the pencil thin lips but the swelling is a little more but is short lived. Hope this helps Dr. ODell

Answer: Hydrophilic fillers hi, I would say the most hydrophilic in the Juvederm family is likely Juvederm ultra XC. In the restylane family, it is probably Restylane Silk. I think the most appropriate fillers for lips are Juvederm ultra but for a more subtle result you can try Juvederm Volbella. It does not cause as much swelling as ultra or silk. Again, make sure to visit an experienced facial surgeon for best results.

Answer: Lip fillers Hi,The restylane line tends to cause a little more swelling immediately post-injection but it resolves in about 48 hours. Best,

Answer: HA fillers for the lips I have injected both Juvederm and Restylane fillers in the lips. I find the Retylane Refyne to be the best for lip augmentation. It does some swelling (usually about 24 hours) but, but overall, I think it causes less swelling than Juvederm and gives a getter result. On the spectrum of Flexibility vs. Stiffness, Restylane Refyne is very flexible, making it a good choice for the lips. I wouldn't use it for building up cheeks or addressing nasolabial folds. For those areas, I personally prefer Radiesse (a calcium hydroxyappetate filler, not a hyaluronic acid.) Another interesting option for lips: Belotero. If someone wants definition to the edge of their vermilian border or just a juicier, moister look to the lip without large volume added, I choose Belotero. I hope that helps.

Answer: Lip fillers Thanks for your question. In the Allergan family, Juvederm Ultra and Ultra plus have been primarily used in the lips. With Volbella and Vollure, we have other options to place in the lips. Volbella and volume are both less hydrophilic than Juvederm Ultra and Plus. Vollure will attract some swelling but the benefit is it lasts for 18 months.
