Restylane® is a hyaluronic acid gel. Hyaluronic acid is a substance that occurs naturally in human skin and subcutaneous tissue. It is responsible for proper moisturizing and firmness of the skin as well as the volume of subcutaneous tissue.
Preparations containing hyaluronic acid, such as Restylane®, allow you to fill wrinkles, deep facial furrows and improve the shape of the nose without surgery.
Restylan usually fills deep nasolabial wrinkles and enlarges the lips. It can also be used to fill small wrinkles around the mouth and improve the falling corners of the lips.
RESTYLANE – Enhancing & beautifying lips
With age, the amount of natural hyaluronic acid in the skin decreases. This also applies to the lips and skin around the red lip. The result is a loss of volume and firmness of the lips and a fall in the corners of the mouth.
Restylan® is a specialist preparation created for enhancing and beautifying lips. It adds volume to the lips, emphasizes their line, shapes the contour of the lips and reduces wrinkles around the corners of the lips. Its formula is adapted to the anatomical structure of the lips.
The procedure involves the injection of hyaluronic acid in the places indicated by the patient. Before administering the preparation, the doctor anaesthetizes the places where the injection will occur. The procedure takes about 30 minutes. The result of the treatment is visible immediately.
The results of Restylan® treatments are long-lasting but not permanent. They last from 6 months to a year depending on the type of skin and the patient’s age.
Restylan® contains only ingredients that do not cause allergies. Over time, it is absorbed, leaving no permanent marks on the body.
RESTYLANE – Nasolabial wrinkles
Aging of the face consists not only in the appearance of wrinkles, but also in changing its features. The skin loses elasticity, which, combined with gravity, causes the face to “hang down”. Changes that distort the face oval include nasolabial wrinkles. Restoring the face of former harmony is possible thanks to injections from Restylan®.
Before starting the procedure, the doctor, in consultation with the patient, decides whether to use local anesthesia or anesthetic cream.
Hyaluronic acid is injected with a thin needle into the skin. The preparation is flexible, soft and has a homogeneous consistency identical to the patient’s tissue. Thanks to this it is invisible and imperceptible. To distribute it, a gentle massage is also performed.
Restylan® fills the wrinkle giving a natural effect.
The results are immediate and last 6-12 months or more. Immediately after the procedure, the patient can return to normal activities. The absorbing filler ensures excellent hydration of surrounding tissues, thus giving the effect of rested and healthy skin. Sometimes, after the procedure, small bruises appear, but they can be masked with corrective makeup.
Contraindications to the procedure are relative and relate to the period of pregnancy and breastfeeding, inflammation of the skin at the site of the proposed surgery, uncompensated systemic diseases.
