Restylane

DETAILS

An injection of Restylane® will help smooth moderate to severe wrinkles and folds that appear on aging faces, such as the creases from your nose to the corners of your mouth. A more youthful appearance is achieved almost immediately and the effects may last up to 6 months. This dermal filler is also used to enhance lip fullness.

Safely used by plastic surgeons since 1996
Comprised of hyaluronic acid
FDA approved to last an average of 6 months
Comes in 2 sizes of syringes: .04 for a minor correction and 1.0 for a more advanced correction.
Additional savings up to $200 when you sign up for the Restylane® Rewards program on their website.

PROCEDURE

Restylane is injected into the skin in small amounts using a very fine needle. The gel provides hydration and structure and gives natural volume to smooth away the appearance of lines, enhance facial shape, or create fuller lips.

The treatment is very quick and often takes less than 30 minutes. The treatment benefits can normally be seen instantly and Restylane does not affect facial expression. No skin test is required because Restylane does not contain any animal-derived ingredients.

RECOVERY

You can expect slight redness, swelling, pain, tenderness, itching and/or bruising following Restylane treatment. This is the same as you might expect with any type of injection. However, the discomfort is temporary and generally disappears after a few days. With lip enhancement, it is wise to choose your treatment time with care since your lips may become swollen and appear slightly uneven for a few days.

months
