Restylane®

Restylane uses a unique formulation of hyaluronic acid with different particle sizes tailored for specific areas of the face, allowing for smooth integration and natural-looking results. Its versatility makes Restylane injections ideal for both fine lines and deeper folds, as well as adding definition to areas like the cheeks and lips.

Yes, one advantage of Restylane vs. other fillers is that it can be dissolved with another injectable, called hyaluronidase, if needed. This provides reassurance for patients who want flexibility and peace of mind knowing the treatment is reversible if adjustments are desired.

Most patients can apply makeup and resume normal activities the same day or by the next day, as long as they avoid heavy exercise, heat exposure, or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours to minimize swelling and ensure optimal results. Following your injections, our knowledgeable team will discuss aftercare guidelines and instructions at length.

Restylane is not recommended during pregnancy. Because there is limited safety data, our providers typically advise postponing cosmetic injectable treatments until after pregnancy and breastfeeding are complete.

Allergic reactions to Restylane are rare, but signs may include excessive swelling, redness, itching, or discomfort beyond typical post-injection effects. Our team reviews allergy history beforehand and monitors patients closely to ensure safety.

It’s best to schedule Restylane injections at least one to two weeks before a special event. This allows time for swelling or bruising to resolve and for results to settle into a natural appearance.
