Two of the hottest new treatments in the injectable world are Restylane Refyne and Restylane Defyne. These two new additions to the Restylane family are hyaluronic acid gel fillers for the laugh lines (nasolabial folds & marionette lines). Since these fillers are made with Galderma’s XpresHAn Technology, they give a more natural expression. So smiles, laughs, frowns and kisses look natural and supported. XpresHAn Technology allows for more flexibility than other fillers.

As we age, our skin naturally looses elasticity and lines form from the corners of the nose down to the corners of the mouth, and from the corners of the mouth toward the chin. Both Refyne and Defyne are indicated to treat these areas through mid-to-deep injections into the facial tissue. The correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines is beautiful. But what really separates Restylane Refyne and Restylane Defyne from other fillers is their innovative cross-linking technology that allows more natural movement. XpresHAn Technology in the Refyne and Defyne allows you to achieve a more youthful look while still maintaining your natural facial expressions. Because Restylane Defyne provides more support, it is better suited for deeper facial wrinkles than Restylane Refyne. Restylane Refyne is great for softening moderate smile lines.
In clinical trials of Restylane Refyne and Restylane Defyne, 97% of patients treated were satisfied with their treatment results and 97% said they would do the treatment again! Refyne and Defyne are the only fillers on the market that have been shown in clinical trials to help maintain natural movement and expressions.
