Restylane™ for the correction of wrinkles and scars in men and women as well as upper lip restoration and lip enhancement.
What is Restylane™ ?
The resilience and youthful contours of your skin and its ability to counter the effects of time, wind and weather, owes much to hyaluronic acid. It exists in all life and its most important function is to bear and bind water. Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in your skin and other tissues. Restylane™ is stabilized, non-animal based, hyaluronic acid, in the form of a crystal clear gel. It gently smoothes wrinkles and folds or gives contour or fullness creates a natural beauty lift.
Impressions of beauty change over time, so do our faces as we age. Yet each of us has good natural lines that can be emphasized and improved. Restylane™ can give you a long-lasting and natural enhancement.
Since Restylane™ is not animal derived, there is no risk of transmitting diseases between species, or of eliciting allergic reactions in people who are sensitive to common foods such as beef, chicken or eggs. No skin testing in necessary (as with Collagen) before a Restylane™ treatment.
Restylane™ and the other Restylane™ products can be used for the correction of wrinkles and scars in men and women who wish to augment their lips or restore or define your lip lines.
The different Restylane™ products include:
For optimal results, combinations of the above Restylane™ products are often used. We will help you to choose the best combination to make you look and feel your best.
How long does it last?
The benefits of Restylane™ should be visible for 6 - 12 months, depending on the location of the treatment and the nature of your skin. Experience has shown that smaller amounts of Restylane™ products are often needed for maintenance than for the initial correction.
What is the Recovery Period?
After the treatment, some common injection related reactions might occur, such as mild swelling, redness, discomfort or discolouration at the injection site. These typically resolve within one or two days after the injection. Other types of reactions that have been reported are very rare, they may include localized hypersensitive reactions such as swelling or redness,
which are mild to moderate and self-limiting.
More than 300,000 people have successfully been treated with Restylane™ products in more than 40 countries around the world. These products have given very satisfying results giving long-lasting natural enhancement.
