Restylane
Restylane® is an FDA approved filler, ideal for correcting skin texture imperfections such as acne scars, wrinkles and fine lines. It is also great for plumping and enhancing various parts of the face, including the lips.
Restylane is a crystal-clear, non-animal, bio-degradable 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, long-lasting, natural enhancement that is gentle and safe.
The benefits of Restylane® should remain visible for 6 to 12 months, depending on the location of the treatment and the nature of the skin. Experience has shown that smaller amounts of Restylane® are often used for maintenance. |

What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural complex sugar, found throughout all living organisms, that retains water (absorbing more than 1,000 times its weight) and adds volume to the skin’s surface. In addition, hyaluronic acid binds with collagen and elastin, and transports essential nutrients to these fibers. The triple combination of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid provides structure, elasticity, and volume to the skin and contributes to its overall appearance |
