Restylane

Often using creams and other anti-aging products just doesn’t cut it. Time can have a harsh effect on our
appearance as the sun, gravity, and age take their toll. Many people are interested in getting non-surgical
cosmetic procedures like Restylane®
injections because they are less costly and less invasive. Restylane® results vary depending on what the
injections are used for. Restylane® injections improve the appearance of aged skin because they fill in fine
lines, wrinkles and creases creating a fuller more youthful look. Retylane® injections can be used to plump the
limps and fill in wrinkles on the forehead or fill in wrinkles around the eyes and mouth.Restylane® is made of a
naturally occurring substance within the human body called Hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is used to create a
cushion under the skin’s surface because it attracts moisture. Often as we age the level of hyaluronic acid in our
body depletes and thus wrinkles and hollowing occur.Restylane® injections are preferred to
surgical procedures because they are non-invasive. In as few as 10 minutes patients can reap the benefits of
Restylane® results. Many patients will initially experience a certain amount of swelling, redness, and tingling
with their Restylane® injections. However, these side effects diminish very quickly and patients can resume normal
activity immediately following their Restylane® treatments.Like most cosmetic injectables, Restylane® results are
not permanent. However, Restylane® results do last twice as long as most other cosmetic injectables of their type.
Most patients who get Restylane® injections see their Restylane® results for at least five months but many see
them for an entire year. Once the results from Restylane® injections begin to diminish
patients can return for additional treatments.To learn more about Restylane® and other non-surgical cosmetic
