HA filler less likely to migrate and require hyaluronidase: is Restylane the safest option?
Hello, I am in my early 30s (F) based in Europe
After a 70 lbs weight loss (which happened without Ozempic and very slowly, in the span of 2 years, weight is stable since 1 year. BMI is 23 so it is not like I got underweight), wisdom tooth removal (I got it very late at 29), and general aging, my cheeks and tear through are now very hollow. I look permanently tired and no makeup, skincare or supplement is helping it.
I also have an autoimmune disease and I told the plastic surgeond I consulted.
They suggested either fat transfer (but I am afraid of its way of unpredictability, my body fat is quite stubborn and there is also a suspicion I might have lipedema so I am bit scared to use my own fat even it would be safer given my autoimmune history) OR hyaluronic acid filler.
Problem is, they all suggest either Teoxane (which is actually controindicated with any autoimmune disease) or Juvederm Voluma/Volbella (and I read it migrates a lot and can give "worms")
Given my autoimmune disease, I want to be sure of getting a filler I will NOT have to dissolve for migration or swelling. Of course I would dissolve for a vascular occlusion, but that would be an emergency, and hopefully it will not happen. But I would not like to require the dissolver for a migration or swelling which could have been avoided with a safer filler.
Is Restylane filler the less likely to migrate and require non emergency hyaluronidase compared to Juvederm and Teoxane? I really want to avoid the future necessity of dissolving it
Problem is almost no one uses Restylane where I live. But I wonder if I should just bite the bullet and get Juvederm, or if it is indeed better to wait for someone who does Restylane in order to avoid having to dissolve in the future for migration/swelling
Thanks
