If you’re interested in treatment with a wrinkle filler but hesitating for one reason or another, now there is PREVELLE Silk. It is a colorless hyaluronic acid gel that contains a small quantity of a local anesthetic (lidocaine) to provide pain relief at the injection site. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the human body, which moisturizes (hydrates) and cushions the skin. PREVELLE Silk is naturally broken down by your body over time. Skin testing is not required.

The duration of results

Prevelle Silk is composed of hyaluronic acid, just like the popular fillers Juvederm and Restylane.  The difference lies in the HA concentration, which is slightly lower in Prevelle Silk, meaning the results of Prevelle Silk will probably wear off quicker.

That might sound like a drawback, but it’s not:  a filler with short-term results is actually a great way to “test drive” this type of treatment.  Dr. Hess says the results of Prevelle Silk will usually last 2 months at most, and if you like the results, you can return for treatment with a comparable, but longer lasting wrinkle filler.

The addition of lidocaine

Prevelle is one of the latest fillers to be manufactured with lidocaine as a component.  While the significance of this addition may be exaggerated somewhat in the marketing for these new fillers, when combined with traditional pain management techniques it may enhance the comfort level of your injection.  According to the Prevelle website, clinical trials demonstrated a significant improvement over the filler Captique:
