WHAT IS RESTYLANE®?
Restylane® is hyaluric acid, which is natural to the body. This substance occurs throughout the body and ensures the hydration and elasticity of the skin. Restylane® uses hyaluric acid in a non-animal tested gel form (NASHA gel). Over time, however, the production of hyaluric acid decreases, wrinkles form and the skin becomes less flexible. Restylane ®replaces natural hyaluric acid. It forms cushions under the skin that completely fill the wrinkles and furrows. Four kinds of Restylane® (Restylane®, Restylane Touch®, Restylane Perlane® and Restylane Lipp®) are used, depending on the depth of the wrinkles and treated area. The products are virtually identical: they differ only in the size of the gel particle. Smaller ones are used for minor wrinkles, and larger ones for deeper furrows and for renewing volume.
THE TREATMENT
The doctor applies Restylane® to the skin using a thin needle. The slight burning sensation this causes disappears immediately after the substance has been applied. The skin may be desensitized with cream at sensitive places and with injectable anaesthesia at the lips.
RESULTS
The result of the treatment can be seen immediately. Although the skin may be slightly swollen directly after the treatment, the swelling disappears within one or two days. The body completely decomposes Restylane® within six to twelve months, at which point the effect of the treatment disappears. However, the treatment can be repeated without difficulty.
