What Is Restylane®?

Nothing can make you look older more than the formation of expression lines on your face. Years of repeated smiling, frowning, laughing, squinting, and other facial expressions can take a toll and age your face prematurely. So before you turn to any type of invasive procedures, you should consider trying Restylane®.

What Is Restylane®?

Restylane® is a family of hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers which are designed to be injected beneath the surface of the skin to add volume and fullness. The Restylane® family of fillers is formulated to act like your body’s own naturally produced hyaluronic acid. They can reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the face including forehead lines, the lines between the eyebrows, smile lines, and crow’s feet.

How Long Does Restylane® Last?

As a general rule, in areas that have less facial movement, the fillers tend to last longer while areas of the face that move more will see results fade a little more quickly. With that in mind, Restylane® fillers can last on average from 6 to 18 months. You can prolong your results with good skin care routines, including drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated, using quality skincare products, using sunscreen regularly, and by having periodic dermal filler touch-ups to keep new lines and wrinkles from forming.

Restylane® has several products, each designed for a specific purpose. Following is a general guide for how long each will typically last.

Restylane® Silk for lip augmentation and to smooth wrinkles will last approximately 6 months.
Restylane® Lyft for volume to the back of hands, cheeks, and smile lines will last an average of 12 months.
Restylane® Refyne for nasolabial folds typically lasts 12 months.
Restylane® Defyne for deeper smile lines lasts approximately 12 months.

Results will vary by individual, so the best way to get an idea of how Restylane® products will work for you is to schedule a complimentary consultation with one of the team members at Skinatomy Laser Clinic. They will be able to recommend the best products for you and answer all of your questions.

By far my favourite clinic! Vanessa saved my skin! I was comfortable immediately from our initial consultation. She explained to me what was needed and then executed it.
