What does Belotero do?
Belotero has a range of dermal filler formulas and two of them have been specifically designed for lip augmentation - Belotero Intense and Belotero Balance. Both products work slightly differently and address different problem areas. Belotero Intense is typically used to produce volumising and plumping results, while Belotero Balance is used to add definition and enhanced shape. The key ingredient, hyaluronic acid, works slightly differently in each product to solve different issues.
The hyaluronic acid in Belotero Intense works like a sponge beneath the surface of the lips to soak up moisture and expand into creases and sunken areas. The result is not only a plumper appearance, but heavier lines and wrinkles are filled and moisture rises to the surface to add vibrance and dewiness. The results are long-lasting and more dramatic than a lighter product like Belotero Balance.
The hyaluronic acid content in Belotero Balance works to integrate seamlessly with the skin tissue, filling in moderate to severe vertical lines, fine lines above and around the mouth and also laugh lines. Balance is a lighter and softer filler compared to Intense, and the results are more subtle as a result.
What does Juvederm do?
Juvederm, like Belotero, has a wide range of dermal fillers and two of them have been designed exclusively for lip augmentation. Juvederm Ultra XC is the filling agent most commonly used for plumping lips, whereas Juvederm Volbella is designed to fill fine lines and wrinkles. Juvederm filling agents are formulated with an advanced technology known as Vycross that cross-links hyaluronic molecules to give a more structured consistency, which is why it’s so popular for volumising and plumping the lips.
Juvederm Ultra XC has been specifically designed for the delicate skin tissue of the lips, meaning it provides a fuller pout without feeling heavy. Similar to Belotero Intense, this filler is better suited to patients wanting to boost the size and plumpness of their lips. Juvederm Volbella is a slightly smoother formula, making it best suited to add definition and hydration to the lips, and fill finer lines and creases.
How to choose the best filler for you
It’s all well and good knowing what each filling agent does, but you may still be wondering whether Belotero or Juvederm is the right choice to help achieve your desired results. To narrow down the best option, we’d recommend considering these three points:
1)
If you want to enhance the shape of your pout, add more definition to the outline, or make your lips more prominent, you might benefit more from a filling agent that has a softer texture, such as Belotero Balance or Juvederm Volbella.
2)
If you’re concerned about visible signs of ageing appearing on or around your lips, softer fillers such as Balance and Volbella are designed to effectively fill in these fine, delicate lines. However, the more liquid texture of Belotero provides a smoother and more seamless finish.
3)
For more volume, increased size and plumpness - opt for the thicker-textured fillers such as Belotero Intense or Juvederm Ultra XC. However, Belotero Intense’s smooth formula offers less risk of bumps and the Tyndall effect.
Lip augmentation London & UK
Finding the right lip-filling agent is an important part of getting lip augmentation; however, where you go and who performs the treatment is of equal importance. Unlike many other countries across the world, the UK does not regulate who can administer dermal fillers. This means that the quality of your results can vary considerably depending on who you go to.
