What is Restylane®?
Restylane® is a dermal filler that has been used throughout the United States and other parts of the globe for several years now. The filler is capable of treating moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles as well as for enhancing lips. There are many dermal fillers on the market in today’s time, but you want to work with one that has a good reputation for providing desirable results. Many people have been able to improve their appearance with this injection and you want to find out whether it’s something that can help you.
Restylane® can be used in such areas as marionette lines, laugh lines, lipstick lines, and for contouring the upper and lower lips. With such versatility, it can help you to achieve the look you want without having to consider multiple fillers. Few fillers on the market have such versatility, which is why Restylane® continues to grow with other products including Perlane (Restylane® Lyft).
Getting a Treatment
When you decide on Restylane®, you want to make sure to know how to make the most out of the procedure. When you are looking to improve the lines from your nose to the corner of your mouth, also known as nasolabial folds, you want to make sure you work closely with your skin specialist in Sydney for a treatment plan that works.
Many people have been able to maintain results for 18 months following the Restylane® regimen. After the initial treatment, you simply want to get a follow-up treatment for each line between four and a half and nine months following the first injection. Determining when to get the follow-up will be up to your doctor based upon how you are reacting to the injection.
The injectable gel can achieve a full correction of your lines, wrinkles, and folds. You simply need to make sure you are going in for the follow-ups on schedule so that you can maintain your enhanced look for dramatically longer.
What is Full Correction?
Full correction is known as being able to get the results you want without having to go back and forth to the office of your plastic surgeon. After one treatment, you will notice considerable results. When you go back for your second and even third injection, you will continue to see the improvements because the volume is being restored.
Once you have the Restylane® injections, there are various things that you want to do to improve the overall look. You will want to avoid or minimize your exposure to heat or cold for at least a week following the injection. You also want to avoid touching the area or applying makeup for several hours following the injection. If you take aspirin, St. John’s wort, or other products, you want to stop such prior to the procedure as well as for a week after. This is to help minimize bleeding and bruising at the injection site.
Overall, the full correction can last you a considerable amount of time. This is something you want to look at regardless of what dermal filler you ultimately choose. You do not want to spend a lot of money only to find out that you need to return in three months for another injection – and then another injection after that. Learn about your options and what the Restylane® regimen is that your doctor can set you up with.
What You Need to Know
When you consider Restylane®, there are some important things you will want to be aware of. The more you know about the product, the easier it will be to determine if it is right for you. Working with a qualified medical professional is also important because you want to make sure the injections are being done properly to achieve the best results.
After the injection, which can take less than an hour inside the office, you may experience redness, bruising, pain and tenderness. This is common and it will generally last no more than a week. Our skin specialist at Booth Dermatology & cosmetic Care Center will review your medical history and find out what prescription drugs and herbal remedies you are currently taking to determine if you are a candidate. This will ensure you minimize the possibility for an allergic reaction.
There are other dermal fillers, though this one is capable of providing you with as much as 18 months of improved appearance with only one injection and one follow-up. Not everyone is a candidate, so it is best to talk to Dr. Sally Booth to see if there are other dermal fillers that can provide you with the same results at a lower cost or at a lower risk for side effects.
Often, Restylane® can be the best product for you, based upon what you are trying to achieve. You can use cold compresses to reduce swelling and you can get a considerable value for the injection because of not having to go for three or four throughout the year. Best of all, there is a minimal amount of recovery time in comparison to plastic surgery.
