Best treatment for nasolabial folds/smile lines? juvederm, restylane (dermal fillers) or radiesse? how much do they cost? which lasts longest & has least side effects?

Similar: all are hyaluronic acid products. All last aproximately the same time about 8- 12 months. Reports claim Restylane (dermal fillers) lasts the shortest 6-8 months and Radiesse as long as 12 - 16 months but I have not seen such a big discrepancy in my practice. Costs aprox. 500 - 700 dollars for injection of a 1 cc syringe. Side effects are the same in these three products.

Juvederm & Restylane (dermal fillers): I believe that Juvederm and Restylane (dermal fillers) are the best options for the nasolabial folds. They are both HA fillers and they are reversible. Radiesse is not reversible and I would not recommend it for this area. Hope this helps.

Combination: The naso-labial folds are formed when the cheek tissues start to shift downward. Often, when the cheeks are lifted, filled and contoured with Radiesse (dermal fillers) and Voluma the naso-labial folds soften. However, the folds can be addressed directly with Juvederm.
