Both categories consist of high-quality hyaluronic acid fillers. The main differences lie in the brand, the properties of the specific gel, and the price. Which filler is best for you depends on the treatment area, the desired result, and your budget.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Essential: Aliaxin and Stylage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Essential, we work with <a href=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/en\/aliaxin-fillers\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5827\"><strong>Aliaxin<\/strong> <\/a>and <strong>Stylage<\/strong>. These brands offer different fillers for different applications. Sometimes our doctor may recommend an Essential filler instead, for example, because the properties of that specific filler are well-suited to the area you want to have treated.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Premium: Restylane<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Premium, we use <a href=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/en\/restylane-fillers\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"5828\"><strong>Restylane<\/strong>.<\/a> This brand also offers several types of fillers, ranging from softer gels to firmer products that provide more support. Restylane is more expensive for us to purchase; that is why the treatment price is higher. <\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1015 size-full\" style=\"object-position:50% 50%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A9197-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile is-image-fill-element\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1048 size-full\" style=\"object-position:50% 50%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/aeprilclinics.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BN4A8397-Verbeterd-NR-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Always honest advice<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Premium Always Better?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. A higher price doesn\u2019t mean that Restylane is the best choice for every treatment. Aliaxin and Stylage are also high-quality fillers. Some gels feel softer and move more easily with the tissue; others are firmer and provide more shape or support.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After a filler treatment, temporary swelling or noticeable lumps may occur. The likelihood of this depends, among other things, on the product, the injection site, and your individual response. We therefore cannot promise that a particular brand will not cause lumps.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Which filler do we recommend for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the consultation, we\u2019ll discuss your goals, assess the treatment area, and explain which filler we recommend and why. We\u2019ll also take your budget into account. Together, we\u2019ll choose the product that best suits the results you have in mind.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The products we use contain anesthetics to make your treatment more comfortable.
