Restylane Treatments

Fine lines and wrinkles can now be successfully improved with Restylane, which consists of Hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the body.

As we age its volume diminishes in the skin, leaving wrinkles and other signs of ageing. Restylane is formulated to be injected into the skin to lift up the tissue of a line, wrinkle or a fold.

Recent research has shown that the injection of Restylane also stimulates the bodies own fibroblast cells to produce more natural collagen, which makes the skin smoother and more elastic.

There is a whole range of Restylane products which have been developed for use in different areas of the face and lips. As it is not extracted from animals it is not necessary to perform pre-testing.

During treatment there may be some mild temporary discomfort, but this can be alleviated by the use of local anaesthetic.

As with any treatment that requires injection, patients may experience some redness or swelling, this is normal and will generally disappear in a day or two.

Some people may experience a little bruising. Again this will be temporary and can be covered with light make-up.

The majority of patients treated with Restylane will only need further treatment after approximately one year.
An individual assessment is necessary in order to evaluate which of the available treatments is best for you.
