Which Dermal Filler Is Right for You?
As we age, our skin may lose volume and develop wrinkles, leading to a less youthful appearance. Dermal fillers offer a non-surgical solution to rejuvenate the skin and restore its natural volume.
With a wide range of dermal fillers available, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one for your specific needs.
Dermal Filler Options
The following dermal fillers offer unique benefits that you need to know in order to make an informed decision.
Juvederm Ultra XC / Juvederm Ultra Plus XC
Juvederm Ultra XC and Juvederm Ultra Plus XC are both hyaluronic acid-based fillers that address moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds.
The key difference between the two is the concentration of hyaluronic acid. Juvederm Ultra Plus XC contains a higher concentration, making it perfect for deeper, more pronounced wrinkles and folds. These fillers provide natural-looking results and can be used to enhance lip volume as well.
Juvederm Voluma
Juvederm Voluma is designed to add volume to the cheeks and mid-face area. As people age, many experience volume loss in the cheeks, leading to a sunken and tired appearance. Juvederm Voluma can lift and contour the cheeks, restoring a youthful and rejuvenated look. This filler also stimulates collagen production, providing long-lasting results.
Restylane
Restylane is another hyaluronic acid-based filler that can address moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. It’s particularly effective in treating nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and adding volume to the lips. Restylane provides natural-looking results and works wonderfully for various parts of the face.
Belotero
Belotero is a versatile hyaluronic acid filler that can treat fine lines and wrinkles, particularly in delicate areas such as around the eyes and lips. It integrates seamlessly into the skin, providing smooth and natural results. Belotero is an excellent option for patients seeking subtle yet also noticeable improvements.
Radiesse
Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite-based filler that not only adds volume to the skin, but also stimulates the production of collagen. It’s commonly used to address moderate to severe wrinkles and folds, as well as enhancing facial contours. Radiesse can provide long-lasting results, making it a popular choice for facial rejuvenation.
RHA Filler
RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) fillers are the latest advancement in hyaluronic acid-based fillers. They are designed to adapt to facial movements, providing natural and dynamic results. RHA fillers are particularly suitable for areas with more expressive movements, such as the lips and around the mouth.
