Juvederm® and Restylane® fill the wrinkles in by adding volume to each area they target. The different strategies make them work well together when they are combined. If it is done correctly, using both is a good way to reverse wrinkles at the highest level.
Using Multiple Dermal Fillers at the Same Time
Doing so is commonly referred to as getting a liquid facelift, and is a popular procedure. However, Juvederm and other dermal fillers should not be mixed together, or used simultaneously, on the same facial problem areas during the same dermal filler treatment session.
The short answer to this question is yes!
Although we do not recommend mixing different fillers in one treatment area in a single session, it is common to use a variety of different dermal fillers over numerous sessions.
JUVÉDERM results can last between 1 – 2 years. Restylane is used to treat the same areas of the face as JUVÉDERM. However, it tends to work well to fill in folds or lines around the nose and cheeks, and the eyes. Restylane fillers typically last 6 – 18 months, depending on the target area.
Restylane is more granular, while Juvéderm is smoother. For this reason, Juvéderm is often used to address finer lines and wrinkles in tighter areas of the face such as the smile lines. Restylane – which stays in place better when injected – may be more adept at adding volume to sunken areas of the face.
For example, because Juvederm contains more hyaluronic acid, it's a little pricier than Restylane. Yet you may not need as many Juvederm injections to achieve your results, which may end up being better for your wallet.
Juvederm Vs Restylane: Longer Lasting
The jury is out on which of these fillers is longer lasting. The effects from both last for several months, but Juvedermhas 35 percent more hyaluronic acid that has been cross linked.
Restylane SILK causes significant swelling in the majority of people who have it injected in their lips. Restylane-L, on the other hand, tends to cause LESS swelling than Juvederm. The amount of swelling is often asssociated with the physical structure of the hyaluronic acid and the amount of cross-linking present.
Will Results Improve Over Time? Absolutely! This injectable gives you improved results over time, unlike many other similar treatments. The active ingredient in Restylane works with the natural regenerative properties of your body, extending the results you'll see after treatment over the course of several weeks.
One syringe of Juvederm is sometimes sufficient for mild nasolabial folds. For lip augmentation, one syringe will sculpt and enhance the lips. The change will be noticeable but subtle. Two syringes will give a more dramatic size increase and enhancement.
There are no side effects when mixing different fillers in one session, your doctor can achieve even greater results than if each filler was used separately. Combination treatment also offers benefits that are unique to this approach: Better results!
Answer: Fillers after fillers
Yes, it is usually ok to inject fillers on top of already existing filler products. Best of luck with your injections.
Answer: Restylane for Lip Augmentation
Typically 1 syringe is all that is needed to achieve a patient's desired look. If you are looking for a larger look than you may require 2 syringes.

Answer: How long between dissolving and redoing fillers
I do not recommend redoing fillers until at least day 3 and usually ask patients to wait a week just in case there's any mild swelling or anything.
It might be the case that you want to dissolve your existing fillers that look unnatural or that have been causing you issues and want to replace them with new fillers. However, it's recommended that you wait a couple of weeks before doing so.
The more relaxed you can keep your face, the longer your results will last. For one thing, repeated facial expressions are the number one cause of dynamic wrinkles; the more often you make an expression, the more likely the skin will remember the way it folds, which leads to the development of lines and wrinkles.
The three fillers that tend to last the longest are Restylane Lyft, Restylane Defyne, Restylane Refyne, Juvederm, Voluma, Radiesse, and Sculptra. Restylane Defyne is built for balance and used in the nasal labial folds and marionette lines.
Like many other dermal fillers, it will take at least one to three days for Restylane Lyft to settle into the skin. During that time, you will need to follow specific instructions so you don't disturb the filler.
You will see the final results of your treatment about four to six weeks after your treatment, which is about the time it takes for your body to kickstart collagen production to restore facial volume. This is also because it takes about two weeks for this dermal filler to settle into the hollows of your skin.
Restylane Kysse is the best filler option for plump lips as it causes the least amount of swelling compared to other dermal fillers on the market. Common temporary side effects include bruising, nodules, hypersensitivity, redness, and swelling at the injection site.
If you stop getting Restylane, after a year, the wrinkles will come back but they may never be as bad as they were before you started treatment since all fillers also cause your body to make new collagen.
Why Are Filler Results Temporary? Dermal fillers are created using naturally occurring enzymes, such as hyaluronic acid. For this reason, they are metabolized by your body over time. The speed of your metabolism will greatly affect how long your treatment results last.
Many plastic surgeons say that Juvederm and Restylane are the most durable and longest-lasting fillers available. Both contain hyaluronic acid and are good for smoothing wrinkles and lines. Hyaluronic acid carries 1,000 times its weight in water and makes the skin look young, supple, and soft.
