As we age, soft tissue in the face degenerates, resulting in a thinning of the skin and a loss of firmness, plumpness and elasticity. This leads to sagging, sinking and a general flattening of facial features.

Effects of lost volume include:

Forehead lines and nasolabial folds become prominent

Eyebrows droop

Lips become thinner and the Cupid's bow loses definition

Marionette lines and pre-jowl depressions deepen beside the mouth

Wrinkles, furrows, blood vessels and bone structures become more visible

The Restylane® suite of products is the most effective solution for restoring volume-reducing the signs of aging and helping you look fresher and more youthful.

When Restylane's crystal-clear gel is injected into the skin, the result is increased volume-softening wrinkles and folds on the face. Increased volume can create facial fullness and symmetry, enhance certain facial features, and lessen the signs of aging.

Restylane products feature different gel particle sizes that are utilized for different effects and purposes-from eliminating tiny lines to enhancing facial contours. Utilizing Restylane's Tissue-Tailored Concept™, we will choose the right product combination to create the look you desire.

The secret of Restylane is hyaluronic acid, a natural substance already present in the human body, that plays an important role in giving firmness to the skin, shape to the eyes and lubrication to the joints. Hyaluronic acid has the important ability to attract and bind to water molecules to help maintain volume.

A Restylane treatment session is quick and easy. As no pre-testing is required, the treatment can be carried out immediately.

A session generally takes 30 minutes, although the time varies depending on the effect you want to achieve.

Immediately after the treatment, you can expect slight redness, swelling, tenderness or an itching sensation in the treated area. This is a normal result of the injection. The discomfort is temporary and generally disappears in a few days. After a lip treatment, the lips may become swollen and look somewhat uneven. This can persist for up to a week. If the discomfort continues, please contact your physician.

After your treatment, you might have some redness or swelling. This will normally last less than seven days. Sunbathing and cold outdoor activities should be avoided until any redness or swelling disappear. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18, you shouldn't use Restylane

The results can be seen immediately.
How long Restylane holds its effects depends on many individual factors, including your age, skin type, lifestyle and muscle activity, as well as on the injection technique. Treatment results generally last for about six months.

The correction will gradually disappear until your skin looks like it did before the treatment Follow-up injections will help you maintain your correction

Restylane has been used safely by dermatologists and plastic surgeons in over 3 million procedures worldwide since 1996.

During treatment, crystal-clear Restylane gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The gel produces volume under the wrinkle, which is lifted and smoothed. When enhancing lips or facial contours, Restylane adds volume and shape to the treated area.
