The Best Lip Filler
As we age, areas of the face start to expose signs of aging. Aging is specifically noticeable in the area around the lips. If you are looking to reduce signs of aging, lip fillers are a great solution, and there are many options to choose from. Revanesse Versa Dermal Filler and Juvederm products are popular choices when it comes to lip fillers, but there are some key differences between them that you should be aware of before making a decision.
What is Revanesse Versa Dermal Filler?
Revanesse Versa is made from hyaluronic acid filler, which is a substance that naturally occurs in the body. This means that most people very well tolerate it and there is little risk of allergic reactions. Versa Lip Filler also contains lidocaine, which helps numb the lips during the injection process.
Pros
- Low risk of allergic reactions
- Contains lidocaine to enhance numbing in the injection area
- An effective way to add facial volume to the lips
- Reduces the appearance of nasolabial folds and marionette lines around the mouth
- FDA-approved for lip augmentation and the treatment of lip lines
Cons
- More expensive than some other types of fillers
Side Effects
The most common side effects associated with Versa Lip Filler are temporary and include bruising, swelling, and redness at the injection site.
What is Juvederm Dermal Filler?
Juvederm is also made from hyaluronic acid but is a synthetic version of the substance. This means that there is a slightly higher risk of allergic reactions to Juvederm than there is with Versa Lip Filler.
Pros
- Adds volume to the lips and can also help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles around the mouth
- Available in other filler treatments such as Juvederm Ultra XC, Juvederm Volbella XC, and Juvederm Voluma XC
- FDA-approved for lip augmentation and the treatment of lip lines
Cons
- More expensive than some other types of injectable fillers.
- Higher risk of allergic reactions
- Juvederm does not contain lidocaine meaning the injection process may be more uncomfortable
Side Effects
The most common side effects include temporary reactions at the treatment area, such as tenderness, swelling, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, pain, redness, discoloration, and itching.
Which is Better for Your Lips?
Both Versa Lip Filler and Juvederm are effective at adding volume to the lips and reducing the appearance of lines and facial wrinkles. However, Versa Lip Filler may be the better option for most people as it is made from hyaluronic acid and will respond better to people with sensitive skin. This means that there is little risk of allergic reactions. Versa Lip Filler also contains lidocaine, so the treatment is much more enjoyable and comfortable for patients.
