Both Juvederm and Restylane are FDA approved. They both are manufactured in Europe and are synthesized Hyaluronic Acid , a product naturally produced in your own body, Hyaluronic acid is what gives your skin moisture and maintains the water in the skin. Since this is an all-natural ingredient, there is minimal risk of any allergic reaction.
What is the difference then between these two products?
Juvéderm is considered to be smoother than Restylane and less likely to leave bumps . Juvederm also has 35% more hyaluronic acid and is crossed linked. Juvederm promises to last between 9 months and 12 months. It is said that Juvederm has a tendency to be flattened into the skin tissue over time, and does not provide the lifting effect of Restylane. Restylane seems to be more cohesive, meaning that it is more likely to stay where it is placed, even after time. Because of its cohesive nature, Restylane has an advantage when it comes to filling deeper lines and wrinkles that need correction.
