Restylane- Dermal Filler
Facial Wrinkles and Folds
Restylane® is a safe and natural dermal filler
that restores volume and fullness to the skin to
correct facial wrinkles and folds. Collagen is a
protein that is found naturally in your body to
give support to your skin. With time (or
accelerated by sun or smoke damage), your body's
collagen weakens forming wrinkles in skin.
Restylane® helps to replenish the skin's natural
collagen support layer and provide additional
support. The result is a smoother face.
How does Restylane work?
Restylane® is a cosmetic dermal filler made of
hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that
already exists in the human body. The hyaluronic
acid also creates volume in the face, giving it
a healthy, youthful appearance. When Restylane®
is injected directly into areas where the body's
collagen has been weakened; depressions can be
raised to the level of surrounding skin. This
smoothes and minimizes facial lines and most
types of scars. In addition, skin texture is
improved and has a softer and more even tone.
How is a Restylane procedure performed?
Restylane® is injected directly into the skin in
tiny amounts by an ultrafine needle, resulting
in minimal discomfort. The procedure is simple
and quick, and results are practically
instantaneous. A dental block or numbing cream
may be used before the Restylane® treatment to
optimize your comfort during the short
procedure.
Prior to a Restylane® treatment, patients should
avoid taking aspirin, non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory medication or vitamin E
supplements. This will minimize any bleeding or
bruising.
Where can Restylane® be used?
The area’s most commonly treated are the area
between the eyebrows, the nasolabial folds, and
the area around the mouth. The treatment can
also help to define the lip border and give the
appearance of a fuller lip.
How long will the results of a Restylane®
treatment last?
Restylane® effects last between six and nine
months.
