Restylane Before & Afters
About Restylane®
Restylane is a brand of non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers developed by Galderma, the world’s largest independent dermatology company. The product line includes clear gel fillers that are injected just underneath the skin of the face or hands to temporarily add volume and lift.
HA — the active ingredient in all Restylane products — is a sugar molecule that is naturally found in our skin. HA helps keep our skin taut and plump thanks to its unique ability to absorb a thousand times its weight in water. But because HA production tends to decline with age, our skin gradually loses its youthful contours, texture and elasticity. Restylane restores your youthful glow by replacing lost HA. The stabilized HA gel in these injectables is biocompatible, bioabsorbable and non-toxic. This means there is a very low risk of allergic reactions, and your body can safely break down the HA over the months after your treatment.

The Restylane® Family of Products
The Restylane family includes different gel formulations, all designed to volumize the treated area and act like your body’s own HA. Each product has a unique consistency and features that make it ideal for treating specific concerns or areas.
Restylane®
The original non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA™) filler, Restylane has been in use for over 25 years. The original filler in this collection is used to add volume and fullness to the skin to correct nasolabial folds and wrinkles around the mouth. It can also be used for lip augmentation.
Restylane® Kysse
Designed specifically for treating the lips, this product is ideal for patients concerned about thin or undefined lips and smoker’s lines. Restylane Kysse is specially formulated to create plump lips that feel and look natural and maintain movement thanks to its unique XpresHAn technology.
Restylane® Lyft
With its thicker consistency, Restylane Lyft has been FDA-approved to restore volume in the back of the hands and cheeks. The product is also used to treat moderate to severe nasolabial folds. This product contains 0.3% lidocaine to reduce discomfort during treatment.
Restylane® Refyne
If you are worried about marionette lines or nasolabial folds, this filler can help. Also made using XpresHAn technology, Restylane Refyne diminishes the appearance of mild to moderate facial folds without affecting natural movement and expressions.
Restylane® Defyne
Another Restylane product made with its XpresHAn technology, Defyne can address deeper nasolabial folds and marionette lines while preserving your natural range of expressions.
Restylane® Contour
Restylane Contour is FDA-approved for cheek augmentation and the restoration of fullness and definition lost due to aging. It is the only cheek filler with XpresHAn technology, which ensures the flexible gel moves with your facial expressions for a natural result.

Frequently Asked Questions
Before your Restylane treatment, we will discuss your goals and medical history to confirm that you are a good candidate. If the Restylane® injection does not contain lidocaine, we may apply numbing cream before treatment. Your provider will then administer the product into specific areas of your face or hands using a fine needle or a blunt-tipped cannula. The treatment should take 30 minutes or less.
The results from Restylane are visible immediately after treatment since the injected gel adds instant volume underneath the skin. However, it usually takes two to four weeks for the product to fully “settle” into the tissue and for the final effect to be seen.
All Restylane products contain a small amount of the local anesthetic lidocaine, which keeps pain levels to a minimum. In other instances, we may apply a topical anesthetic to help diminish discomfort. After your treatment, you may experience minor swelling and/or tenderness around the injection sites, which should resolve within a week.
Restylane injections last at least nine months on average. How long your results will last depends on which Restylane® product is used and where. For example, Defyne, Refyne and Lyft can last up to a year. Lip injections tend to dissolve sooner than injections in other areas due to the significant amount of movement around the mouth.
Because Restylane does not contain animal proteins or potentially toxic substances, it is safe for most patients and serious adverse events are rarely reported. Though side effects can happen with any treatment, with Restylane® they are usually mild and resolve on their own. These may include temporary bruising, redness, swelling, tenderness, itching and pain.
