Restylane is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler. Restylane includes the original formula and a collection of premier fillers specifically fine-tuned to target different areas of the face and body. Hyaluronic acid is a substance that naturally occurs in the body, and a synthetic version has been used safely and effectively for over 20 years in dermal fillers. Restylane fillers are used for wrinkles, fine lines, volume loss, and more.
This version of Restylane is used in mid-to-deep tissue injection and can be very effective for moderate to severe wrinkles and folds in the face. It can also be used for lip enhancement.
Restylane Kysse is primarily used in the lip area and is effective for a variety of uses. As a lip filler, Kysse provides a very natural, full, flexible result without the stretched, overfilled look. It can also correct lines and wrinkles on the upper lip.
This formula is tailored to address mild to moderate laugh lines, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds. Refyne is a popular choice as it can last 12 months or more.
Defyne is a powerful option for deep wrinkles such as nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and other severe wrinkles. It is also highly effective for chin wrinkles, chin retrusion or “weak chin,” and chin augmentation.
This type of Restylane is specifically formulated with a particular viscosity to create an excellent contouring effect while allowing for flexibility and a natural look. It is used chiefly for cheek softening and volume.
Restylane Lyft is a versatile serum most often chosen to lift the cheeks and correct smile lines. It is also usually the best option when patients require restored volume in their hands.

Substantial, peak swelling; usually resolves with no intervention

Restylane injections are administered with very fine needles and are usually described as a slight pinch. Topical numbing cream can be used if needed.
Restylane is a very safe option for skin rejuvenation. Possible minor side effects include swelling or bruising at the injection. Very rare but more serious side effects can involve infection or allergic reaction.
Restylane fillers are all considered semi-permanent. Results last anywhere from 6-18 months, depending on where you receive injections and how your body metabolizes the formula.
As is the case with all dermal fillers, Restylane is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
With proper usage and reasonable expectations for results, lip fillers will not damage your lip tissue.
Once you have regained full sensation in your lips, eating and drinking are okay. This usually takes a few hours.
Restylane fillers last about 6-12 months, and we typically recommend maintenance treatments every 9-12 months.
The cost of Restylane varies greatly depending on which formulation you will be receiving, what area it will be used in, and how many initial treatment sessions will be recommended to achieve optimal results.
