Restylane™/Dermal
Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable substances, used to augment lips,
smooth out lines & wrinkles, and correct skin defects i.e. scars.
The newer substances, like Restylane™ are derived from non-animal
sources, and require no pre-testing for an allergic response. Restylane™
is considered a “temporary” filler lasting on average
6 months, individual results may vary.
The most common areas treated are the lines around the mouth, “perioral
lines”, the nasolabial folds (lines from the corner of the
nose to the corner of the mouth), and lips. Other areas that benefit
from treatment include old acne or chicken pox scars, and the crease
between the eyebrows.
Following the treatment, there may be some swelling, tenderness
or bruising. These potential effects are not common to all patients,
tend to be mild, short-lasting, and manageable with help from your
physician. For additional information visit www.restylaneusa.com
