What is RestylaneⓇ?
RestylaneⓇ is an injectable dermal filler that can be used to assist in augmenting the lips as well as correcting wrinkles and other facial fine lines. The key component of this dermal filler is hyaluronic acid which is a sugar molecule found in the skin that binds water together for skin hydration. Utilizing hyaluronic acid, RestylaneⓇ is able to restore volume and fullness to the skin. RestylaneⓇ is approved by the FDA for patients over the age of 21.

How many RestylaneⓇ treatments are necessary?
Depending on the patient’s body chemistry and what the patient wants to accomplish will determine how many treatments will be necessary. Generally, 1-2 treatments are initial with anything beyond that being based off of the patient’s body and goals.
Is RestylaneⓇ right for me?
