Restylane and Restylane Silk

I went to get my lips filled with Juvaderm, but the doctor recommended Restylane. He did my lips and my cheeks...3 vials. Two were Restylane and 1 was Restylane Silk, but I'm not certain what he put where. It looked great afterward, but I noticed within a few hours my lips started aching...very uncomfortably so I took some Tylenol, which I've never had to do after Juvaderm. About 5 hours after the injections my lips started very quickly swelling up. The more I put ice on them the worse they got! The swelling started going away the next day and took a few days. I didn't have any issues with my cheeks at all...they looked great. I'm happy with the results, but from now on I'm only using Juvaderm for my lips.

How interesting about how differently your lips reacted. I always love hearing comparisons between the 2 fillers. Have you ever tried arnica to help with swelling?

I have for previous procedures, but not for the lip filler since this was the first time I ever had a reaction from a filler. They did calm down within a few days, and I'm very happy with them now.

I've had the same exact situation and I've gone back and forth more than once between the two products in my lips, only to have the same outcome. Swelling and pain was way worse and longer with Restylane vs Juvederm.

Your results are very good. At the moment Restylane is one of the most popular fillers in the United States, I buy Restylane at Medi-wholesale.com they give the lowest prices in the United States, so I can reduce the price of the procedure itself.
