What is Restylane?

Restylane is a colorless synthetic gel that is made with hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance within the connective tissue of the human skin, making it unlikely to prompt an allergic reaction when injected into the face. The hyaluronic acid-based filler is easily injectable and safe, approved by the United States FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in 2003.

There are different Restylane formulas available, which are used to fulfill a variety of needs such as:

  • Lifting and adding volume to the cheeks
  • Enhancing the lips
  • Diminishing lines around the mouth (nasolabial folds)
  • Reducing dark circles beneath the eyes
  • Contouring the nose, chin, and lips
  • Filling orbital troughs and facial hollows caused by aging
  • Eliminating melomental folds (mouth corner lines)

Restylane Procedure

The Restylane treatment is classified as a cosmetic procedure since it works to enhance your appearance through a non-invasive technique. Restylane does not require any incisions and can be administered in the doctor’s office. Most doctors administer Restylane with local anesthesia to help minimize any sort of discomfort you may experience after the injection.

The Restylane procedure can take anywhere from several minutes to half an hour, depending on the amount of filler you need and the complexity of your treatment. The doctor takes the following steps when administering Restylane:

The Restylane treatment is classified as a cosmetic procedure since it works to enhance your appearance through a non-invasive technique
The Restylane treatment is classified as a cosmetic procedure since it works to enhance your appearance through a non-invasive technique

Step 1.

The doctor marks the appropriate areas on the skin where the Restylane will be injected and cleans them with an antiseptic.

Step 2.

Depending on the number of areas you want to enhance, the doctor will determine how much Restylane you will need.

Step 3.

The doctor uses an ultrafine needle to inject the Restylane beneath your skin.

Types of Restylane

There are several types of Restylane that have been approved by the FDA for patients over the age of 21. It is important to have a comprehensive discussion about your expectations with the doctor before the procedure so that they know which type of Restylane to recommend. The formulas include:

Restylane Defyne

Defyne is used for middle to deep injections into the facial tissue. It corrects moderate to severe wrinkles such as the nasolabial folds. Restylane Defyne is also injected into the subcutaneous layer of the dermis to augment the chin region. This allows it to temporarily improve the chin structure.

Restylane Refyne

Restylane Refyne is for middle to deep injections into the facial tissues to eliminate wrinkles that form from the nose to the corners of the mouth.

Restylane Silk

Silk is a lip-specific filler. It is used to diminish the wrinkles around the mouth (perioral wrinkles) and augment the lips.

Restylane Lyft

Lyft is injected deep into the facial tissues to correct severe facial folds and wrinkles and to augment the cheeks. Restylane Lyft corrects contour deficiencies in the middle of the face caused by aging. It can also be injected into the back of the hands to improve volume and reduce signs of aging.

Restylane Contour

The Contour formula is used for cheek augmentation and to correct contour deficiencies in the middle of the face.

Patient Reviews

Dr. Lozada is fantastic and so is this entire team. This was my first medical office visit during the pandemic, and their protocols made me feel safe and at ease. This was also my first time getting facial injections – Dr. Lozada went through every brand and every approach to treatment, and let me know why he was doing what he was doing along the way. Highly recommend!

What to Expect after the Restylane Procedure

After having the Restylane procedure, you can expect to be completely back to normal after about 7 days. The healing period can vary from person to person depending on the number of Restylane injections you had and where you received them.

It is normal to spot some bruising, redness, or swelling after the procedure. We recommend that you limit your exposure to the sun for several days so that your skin can heal properly.

Since Restylane products add volume when injected into the skin, you can expect to see some immediate effects after the procedure. However, full results will be seen after about a week when your skin is completely healed and any swelling has gone down.

Some of the noticeable changes that you can expect to see after receiving Restylane fillers include:

  • Improved smoothness and elasticity of your skin, producing a radiant glow
  • Reduced facial wrinkles around the eyes, cheeks, mouth folds, and lips
  • Youthful facial appearance and restoration of volume on the cheeks
  • Balanced and well-contoured facial features

It’s important to note that the effects of Restylane fillers are not permanent. Depending on the type of injection you choose, the fillers typically last between 6 and 20 months. So, if you want to maintain a lasting youthful appearance, you will have to get touch-up injections every so often.

How to Prepare For a Restylane Treatment

To reduce bruising after the Restylane procedure, we recommend that you stop taking the following medications and supplements two weeks prior to your appointment:

  • Vitamin E
  • Motrin (ibuprofen)
  • Aspirin
  • Fish oil

You can take arnica before and after the Restylane procedure to help reduce bruising and swelling. It can be found at health food stores and drugstores.

Who Is a Good Candidate For Restylane?

Almost anyone over the age of 21 can be eligible for the Restylane procedure. However, there are special exceptions. Restylane is not appropriate for:

  • Breastfeeding or pregnant women
  • Individuals who are immunocompromised
  • People who are taking blood thinners
  • Anyone allergic to bacterial protein
  • People under the age of 21

Frequently Asked Questions about Restylane

How is Restylane administered?

Restylane is administered via injection by a healthcare professional. After the injection, the doctor massages the treated area gently. It takes skill and artistry to properly administer dermal fillers.

Is the Restylane treatment painful?

Some people experience mild discomfort after the treatment from the needle. Most Restylane fillers are integrated with a local anesthetic called lidocaine to reduce pain and discomfort. Any pain should go away quickly as the skin heals. 

Who is qualified to carry out the Restylane procedure?

Healthcare professionals who are trained in administering Restylane injections are the only ones qualified to carry out the procedure. Plastic surgeons are the best choice for this procedure as they have advanced training in dermal fillers and in-depth knowledge of facial aesthetics.
