What Type of Facial Fillers Are Best?

Facial Fillers at LH Med Spa

When it comes to enhancing your natural beauty, restoring volume, and achieving a youthful appearance, facial fillers are a popular, minimally invasive solution. At LH Med Spa, with locations in Livingston and Madison, NJ, we specialize in customized treatments that address your unique needs, leaving you with stunning, natural-looking results. With so many filler options available, it’s essential to understand the differences to determine the best choice for your skin and goals.

What Are Facial Fillers?

Facial fillers, also known as dermal fillers, are injectable treatments designed to restore lost volume, smooth fine lines, and wrinkles, and enhance your facial features. Most fillers are made with substances that naturally occur in the body, such as hyaluronic acid, ensuring safe and effective results. At LH Med Spa, we offer a variety of advanced filler options to help you achieve a refreshed, youthful look without surgery or extensive downtime.

Different Types of Facial Fillers and Their Benefits

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers

Examples: Juvéderm Volux, Voluma, Volbella, Ultra, and Vollure

Best For: Enhancing facial contours, smoothing fine lines, plumping lips, and restoring volume in areas like the cheeks, jawline, and under-eye hollows.

Benefits: Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that hydrates and plumps the skin. These fillers provide immediate results, last 6-24 months depending on the area treated, and are reversible if needed.

Juvéderm® Volux™ XC

Best For: Defining and contouring the jawline. 

Benefits: Juvéderm Volux™ XC is the first HA filler specifically formulated for jawline enhancement. Its dense, firm consistency is ideal for creating sharp definition and a more sculpted appearance. Results can last up to two years.

Juvéderm® Voluma® XC

Best For: Adding volume to the cheeks and midface.  

Benefits: Juvéderm Voluma® XC is designed to lift and contour the midface, restoring a youthful appearance. Its smooth gel consistency ensures natural results that can last up to two years.

Juvéderm® Volbella® XC

Best For: Enhancing lips and smoothing vertical lip lines.

Benefits: Juvéderm Volbella® XC offers subtle lip volume and definition, while also softening fine lines around the mouth. Results are natural-looking and typically last up to a year.

Juvéderm® Ultra XC

Best For: Plumping lips and restoring moderate volume to facial areas.

Benefits: Juvéderm Ultra XC is ideal for creating fuller lips and addressing moderate volume loss in areas like the nasolabial folds. Results are smooth and long-lasting, typically up to one year.

Juvéderm® Vollure™ XC

Best For: Smoothing moderate to severe wrinkles and folds.

Benefits: Juvéderm Vollure™ XC provides natural-looking results for areas like the nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Its unique formulation allows for flexibility and durability, with results lasting up to 18 months.

Choosing the Right Filler for Your Needs

Selecting the best facial filler depends on several factors, including your skin type, treatment goals, and the areas you wish to enhance. For example, if you want fuller lips or a subtle lift to the cheeks, HA fillers like Juvederm would be ideal. If your goal is to address more pronounced signs of aging, such as deep wrinkles or volume loss, a collagen-stimulating filler like Juvéderm Ultra XC might be the better choice.

During your consultation at LH Med Spa, our expert practitioners will carefully evaluate your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and design a personalized treatment plan to deliver the best results.

Combining Treatments for Optimal Results

Facial fillers can also be combined with other treatments, such as Botox or skin resurfacing, to achieve a comprehensive rejuvenation. Botox is often used to relax dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet or forehead lines, while fillers restore volume and smooth static wrinkles. This combination approach allows for a more youthful and harmonious appearance.
