Restylane
Restylane
is a long-lasting and crystal-clear gel used for filling
out lips, facial wrinkles and facial folds. The hyaluronic
acid in Restylane is almost identical to that naturally
found in the body. The product is naturally integrated
into the tissue, allowing important nutritive agents
to pass freely through the implant and cells to pass
between fragments of the gel.
Restylane is injected into the skin to lift the lip,
wrinkle or fold. Once in the skin, Restylane works together
with the body's own hyaluronic acid and joins forces
to create volume. Restylane always leaves you a choice
when the effect of the treatment has worn off, unlike
permanent implants.
Restylane is
injected into the dermis where the concentration of
the body's own hyaluronic acid has decreased and provides
volume. One treatment session takes about 30 minutes.
The results can be seen immediately and no scars or
other marks are left on the face. Even though the treated
area can swell up somewhat and be red for up to one
day afterwards, it is quite possible to go back to work
as normal.
Restylane is
perfectly safe to use instantly without pre-testing.
It is not extracted from animals and this means there
is no risk of allergic reaction
How long the
effect of Restylane treatment lasts is very individual.
It depends on the structure of the skin, lifestyle and
age as well as
on the degree of perfection demanded by the individual.
However, we know that for the majority of the patients
treated about 50-80 % of the effect remains after 6
months. Most people choose to have a touch-up done within
a year of the original treatment.
