Restylane

Restylane can be used to plump the lips or just give them definition. This eliminates lines crossing the lip border and produces a more youthful, voluptuous appearance.

Restylane replaces lost volume to help restore youthful contours and smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

Immediate lift that lasts

Instant results, with little to no downtime.

Offers results lasting up to 18 months when you follow the Restylane Regimen.

The lift that’s trusted worldwide

Uses a stabilized hyaluronic acid, specifically formulated to act like your body’s own hyaluronic acid.

Is the #1-selling and most-sudied wrinkle filler in the world.

Has been used in more than 10 million treatments in more than 65 countries worldwide.

 Before treatment

Avoid using aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (such as ibuprofen), St John’s wort, or high doses of vitamin E supplements.  These agents may increase bruising and bleeding at the injection site.

Talk with your healthcare professional if you have previously suffered from facial cold sores.  He or she may prescribe a medication to minimize recurrence.

 After treatment

Use cold compresses to reduce swelling.

Avoid touching the treated area for the first six hours following treatment, so you do not accidentally injur your skin while the area is numb. After six hours, the area can be gently washed with soap and water.

Avoid exposure to intense heat (sun lamp or sun bathing).

Reduce the risk of facial cold sore recurrence that could be caused by needle punctures.  Talk with your healthcare professional about medications that may minimize an outbreak.

Avoid taking aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, St John’s wort, or high doses of vitamin E supplements for one week after treatment.  These agents may increase bruising and bleeding at the injection site.

After your treatment, you might have some swelling, redness, pain, bruising, and tenderness.  This will normally last less than 7 days.  Contact your healthcare professional if you experience side effects beyond 14 days — and ask about follow-up appointments.

How often should I be treated?

How much Restylane will I need for full correction?
