I love Restylane!  Restylane Filler injections are an affordable, simple, safe, and easy way to treat many facial and non facial features!  Whether you are concerned with deep smile lines, hollows under the eyes, thinning lips, drooping ear lobes, or even crepey skin on the hands and feet!   The Restylane family of fillers offers 3 products to meet every need you may have.There is Restylane, Restylane Silk, and Restylane Lyft.  In this article, I’ll just be discussing the original Restylane Injectable Gel with Lidocaine.

Top 6 Benefits of Restylane

  • Restylane lasts usually about 6 months, but may last longer depending on your metabolism, and the treated area.  This is a pretty typical duration when it comes to hyaluronic acid fillers.
  • Restylane helps long term!  Filling the nasolabial lines (smile lines) prevents them from becoming harsher and deeper over time, and keeps you looking younger for longer.
  • It is reversable.  If your injector happens to overfill one area, or perhaps you are just not happy with your Restylane injections anymore, you can ask for Vitrase (Hyaluronidase) to be injected in that area to dissolve the remaining filler.   It is reassuring to know you won’t be stuck with something you don’t like for half a year.
  • Restylane with Lidocaine helps reduce pain during injections.  I have found this especially helpful during lip augmentation, an otherwise painful injection site.
  • Restylane is non animal-based, this eliminates the possibility of any animal disease transmissions/ allergic reaction.
  • Restylane is versatile and can be used to treat several areas on the face as well as many lesser known areas, such as the hands, earlobes, and the nose.
