Are
Restylane treatments safe?
Significant risks with Restylane injections are infrequent,
but the potential side effects to the treatment are:
However these side effects listed above usually disappear within two
to three days.
Restylane has been proven to be a safe procedure. Since it is non-animal
based, it virtually eliminates the possibility of disease transmission
or an allergic reaction. Plus Restylane is biocompatible with human
hyaluronic acid.
What is “Restylane"?
Impressions of beauty change with time - as do our faces
as we age. With RESTYLANE, you can have a natural beauty lift with the
body's own material. RESTYLANE is a crystal-clear, non-animal, biodegradable
gel based on a natural substance, called hyaluronic acid. The gel is injected
into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The result is
instantaneous and produces a long-lasting,natural enhancement, gentle
and safe to your skin.
Where
Can Restylane Be Used?
Hyaluronic acid implantation can be used to improve the
skin's contour and reduce depressions in the skin due to scars, injury
or lines.
Facial lines and features that can be corrected using these hyaluronic
acid fillers are:
- Worry lines that run across the forehead (forehead lines)
- Crow's feet at the corner of the eyes (periorbital lines)
- Frown lines that run between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Smoker's lines which are vertical lines on the mouth (perioral lines)
- Marionette lines at the corner of the mouth (oral commissures)
- Deep smile lines that run from side of the nose to corners of the
mouth (nasolabial furrows)
- Cheek depressions
- Redefining lip border
- Acne scars
- Some facial scars
How long will the procedure take?
The Restylane injections can take anywhere from a few
minutes to an hour, depending on how large of an area needs to be treated.
Another Restylane benefit is that the procedure is completed quickly, so the
patient can have it done during a lunch hour. Go to lunch, have the Restylane procedure, and return to work looking younger.
Preparation, the Procedure and After-care
Achieving the look you desire is as easy as it is quick.
The result is instantaneous. No previous skin test is needed, which
means that you can have the treatment immediately. The session often
takes less than thirty minutes. The time differs somewhat depending
on the desired correction. During treatment, RESTYLANE
is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. When
injected, RESTYLANE produces volume that smoothes the
wrinkle or fold, shapes the facial contour or enhances the lips in a
natural way. The result is immediate. The method of injecting RESTYLANE
is fast, safe and leaves no scars or other traces on the face.
What is the price?
A full Restylane syringe (for e.g., enough to do the lines
around the lips) is $500.
