When it comes to facial fillers, there are many options available to help you achieve the look you desire. Hyaluronic acid fillers are often recommended for those using fillers for the first time, as they tend to be the most temporary option and usually last between 6 and 18 months. Radiesse by Merz Aesthetics is an FDA approved CAHA filler that is used to soften and minimize nasolabial folds, as well as improve the contours of the jawline. The most popular category of anti-wrinkle fillers is hyaluronic acid, and each type works in a slightly different way with varying results.
Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler that provides volume and fullness, making it a great choice for enhancing the lips and achieving a fuller appearance. Juvederm products contain lidocaine, which makes the injection more comfortable. Voluma is similar to Juvederm, but it provides longer lasting corrections between 18 and 24 months. It is best used to give volume to the middle of the face, as it provides a lift to the overlying tissues of the middle of the face.
Restylane, Radiesse and Juvederm are not permanent, but they can provide long-lasting results if administered correctly. These fillers can last up to a year. Belotero is a facial filler designed to target nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines, which extend from either of the nostrils to the corners of the mouth. The side effects of facial fillers tend to go away in seven to 14 days.
