Belotero vs Restylane for lips

For anyone who has tried both Restylane and Belotero lip fillers, can you please share if the results were pretty similar or did you prefer one over the other for shaping, volume and lasting power?

Planning on getting lip fillers in Seoul and never tried Belotero, but it seems it is popular there.
FYI, I have thin lips but want a semi cherry-lipped result.

My experience with Luho

I just returned from Seoul after getting revision surgery for upper and lower blepharoplasty at Luho.

Reason why: My double eyelids were not the same size anymore (I did them 15 years ago) and I botched my under eye blepharoplasty last year by making a rash decision to do them in Taiwan (one of the worst mistakes of my life!)

I figured if anyone could fix it, they would be in Seoul. I did meet with a couple of other doctors in Gangnam before I met Dr. Park at Luho, but I didn’t feel confident that they could really fix the botched lower blepharoplasty. One doctor even said he thought the area I wanted revised to be muscle and not fat. But after speaking to Dr. Park I felt confident to have the surgery with him. It also made me confident that he only does eyes.

Fast forward to getting the surgery-
Dr. Park was meticulous. I had to open and close my eyes many, many times during the surgery so he could work on the incisions- and that has not happened before in past surgeries. I had also read another review on this forum saying how much pain they were in during the surgery, but thank goodness I didn’t experience that.

After surgery I was able to go to Luho every day for de swelling LED light treatments until my stitches were removed (did not hurt). One eye actually had to keep the stitches in for an additional 2 days. But I am glad the nurse noticed that and didn’t just proceed in taking the stitches out.

I would give Luho 5 stars. They had an English translator for me (though I didn’t need her for speaking with Dr.Park because his English is great, but I did need her for communicating with the staff), the wait time was excellent, it did not feel like a factory clinic, staff was professional and kind, and Dr. Park was wonderful and had my complete trust.

I hope this review is informative enough to help someone looking for Luho info. My eyes are still healing so I am going to wait a couple of weeks before I post my pics.
