Restylane is the trade name for a range of hyaluronic acid injectable fillers. The range includes a variety of products enabling treatment to be effectively tailored to individual needs, providing long lasting but non-permanent results. Restylane fillers can be used to smooth away wrinkles and fine lines, create fuller and more accentuated lips as well as adding facial volume and contour.
The Restylane range: 1. RESTYLANE®for wrinkle correction and lip augmentation. 2. RESTYLANE®SKIN BOOSTERS VITAL Nourish the skin and offer deep level hydration. Can be used on the face, neck, back of the hands, and décolletage. 3. RESTYLANE®PERLANE(LYFT) for shaping facial contours, lip augmentation and correcting deep nasolabial folds and marionette lines. 4. RESTYLANE®SILK To enhance lip definition and for fuller and more sensual lips. 5. RESTYLANE®Sub-Q To replenish lost facial volume. For optimal results products may be combined.
Restylane® products are long-lasting but not permanent. How long results last varies between individuals and is dependent upon many factors, such as skin type, age, life style and level of physical activity. Typically clients require follow-up treatment between six and twelve months after their initial treatment for wrinkles and facial contouring. For lip treatments, a top-up treatment is usually required between three and six months.
Following treatment, it is normal to experience some redness, tenderness and swelling in the treated area. These side effects are only temporary and are typically resolved within a few days following treatment. Swelling following lip augmentation can last up to a week and it is normal during this period for lips to appear uneven. This typically resolves once the swelling subsides.
Clients are offered a follow up appointment two weeks post treatment where touch ups can be performed if necessary.
