What You Need to Know About Restylane

Hyaluronic acid is the naturally occurring component in the skin. It is a substance that promotes hydration, softness, and fullness in the face. The older we get, the more our skin loses its natural hyaluronic acid. This can result in a loss of facial structure and volume. That’s where cosmetic dermatology and Restylane come in!

Restylane is an excellent cosmetic dermatology treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, and creases and its effects can last up to 8 months.

What is Restylane?

Restylane is a gel that contains hyaluronic acid. It’s FDA approved for cosmetic dermatology uses and is designed to replace the naturally occurring hyaluronic acid your skin has lost to help visibly reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and creases.

How is Restylane Applied?

Licensed healthcare providers apply Restylane through injection.

Where does Restylane come from?

The drug is completely biodegradable and never sourced from animals. Restylane is created in a sterile lab environment. That’s why you don’t need to have a skin test performed prior to your procedure.

Restylane treatments are performed exclusively on individuals ages 21 and over.
