When it comes to looking younger, it seems as though there’s a world of choice out there for fighting back against wrinkles. From dermal fillers and Botox to chemical peels and skin creams, it can be easy to get lost in all the available anti-aging treatments.
That’s why we’re about to highlight the two latest anti-aging treatments you need to know about: Radiesse and Restylane. Both are dermal fillers designed to help combat youth-draining wrinkles. Both are popular injectables that add volume to the face, minimize the appearance of wrinkles, and highlight youthful contours to the face.
But when it comes down to it, what’s the difference between Radiesse and Restylane?
Restylane: What You Need to Know
Restylane is made out of hyaluronic acid, which, like another popular filler Juvederm, is found naturally in the skin. Restylane can be used to treat several areas of the face, including nasolabial folds, but one of the more popular areas is the lips.
If you’re looking to increase the volume of your lips, all while minimizing the appearance of prominent facial wrinkles and lines then it’s time to discover Restylane. Restylane is well-known as the most effective, and only FDA approved, dermal filler for enhancing lips and treating lip lines and wrinkles. Restylane Silk is used to treat find lines about the lip.
Radiesse: What You Need to Know
Radiesse is calcium-based (clacium hydroxylapatite), which is a natural precursor to bone formation in our bodies. Radiesse can treat moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth.
Radiesse is known for being the best at treating one of the biggest aging sites: your hands. As you get older, the skin on your hands begins to get thin, which highlights prominent wrinkles and veins. Radiesse works by increasing volume in the hands, by stimulating collagen production which can minimize the appearance of these wrinkles and veins. Hands appear smoother and younger, thanks to the volumizing effect of this filler.
Radiesse tends to produce longer-lasting results than Restylane, a year or more in most cases. However, Radiesse is not reversible so it’s an ideal alternative to chin and cheek implants as helps to build long-lasting collagen in these areas.
No matter what you want from your anti-aging regimen, consider incorporating Radiesse and Restylane for the most natural-looking results.
