Fillers for Lines, Wrinkles and Lips

View Restylane Before & After Photos

Restylane is a long-lasting and clear gel for filling out lips, facial wrinkles and facial folds. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane is almost identical to that naturally found in the body. The product is naturally integrated into the tissue, allowing important nutritive agents to pass freely through the implant and cells to pass between fragments of the gel.

When injected into the skin, Restylane lifts the lip, wrinkle or fold. Once in the skin, Restylane works together with the body's own hyaluronic acid and joins forces to create volume. Unlike permanent implants, Restylane always leaves you a choice
when the effect of the treatment has worn off.

Restylane is made in the laboratory and is not extracted from animals. The risk of allergic reactions is extremely rare. Therefore Restylane is very safe to use instantly without skin testing.

Restylane is available in 3 forms: Perlane for deep wrinkles, folds, and scars, offering longer lasting results for lip enhancement or enlargement. Restylane is used for medium sized lines and wrinkles, and Restylane Fine Line for superficial facial lines.

Restylane is introduced just under the skin's surface through a very fine needle. It is injected at intervals along the line until the right amount of correction has been achieved. The treated area is then massaged gently to smooth the surface.

Restylane can be used to "fill" and smooth out smile lines, crows feet, frown lines, worry lines, acne scars, small lines around the lips and various other facial lines. Restylane can also be used to treat the border of the lips. This can add definition to the lip border for those who desire a fuller look to the lip. Restylane provides volume where the concentration of the body's own hyaluronic acid has decreased.

One treatment session takes about 15-30 minutes. The results can be seen immediately. Occasionally the treated area may become red and swell slightly for up to one day afterwards. This is usually not very noticeable, allowing the treated patient to meet other people and work as normal.

The duration of benefit from Restylane treatment is dependant on the individual. It depends on many factors, such as the structure of the skin, lifestyle, age, as well as on the degree of perfection expected by the individual. We know however, that for the majority of the patients treated about 50-80 % of the effect remains after 4 months. Most people choose to have a touch-up done within 3-6 months of the original treatment.
