What is Restylane?
Restylane is used to add volume and reducer wrinkles around the mouth lips and other areas of the face. It is injected into the deep dermis layer of the skin and helps plump out the skin to remove lines and wrinkles. Restylane fillers offer longer lasting results compared to collagen-based fillers, often lasting six to twelve months. Restylane is a safe FDA approved, non-invasive alternative to a face or forehead lift.
What side effects are associated with Restylane?
While infrequent, potential side effects associated with the use of Restylane include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness and moderate pain. In those instances where side effects are present, they typically dissipate within a few days. All cosmetic surgery carries risks including scarring, infection, and anesthesia complications, but since Restylane procedure is temporary, there are no long term scarring complications.
