What is Restylane made of?
Restylane is the first cosmetic dermal filler made of non-animal-based (synthetic) hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that already exists in the human body and is used to provide volume and fullness to the skin. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane is a crystal-clear gel called NASHA, or non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid. NASH is biodegradable and fully biocompatible with human hyaluronic acid.
Is Restylane® safe?
Yes. Restylane has been used by plastic surgeons since 1996 worldwide. Restylane is fully biocompatible and allergy testing is not required. 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.
Can Restylane be used anywhere on the face?
Restylane has been used in more than 1.5 million treatments in over 60 countries to correct a variety of wrinkles. In the U.S. the FDA has approved Restylane for wrinkles and folds like the ones from the nose to the corners of the mouth. Your doctor will consult with you prior to your injection regarding common treatment areas.
How long does Restylane last?
Restylane is proven to deliver long-lasting results. Studies have shown that Restylane effects generally last for about six months. Restylanes stabilization technology helps maintain the cosmetic effect until the injected material is nearly gone.
How often should I have Restylane treatments done?
Treatments are typically scheduled twice a year. Having a touch-up treatment before the product has fully dissipated may enhance the lasting effect.
