Why Fill?
The Galderma aesthetics range, Why choose RESTYLANE or Restylane Refyne treatments

Why fill with Restylane®?

Our skin becomes thinner and less elastic as we age, reducing its ability to retain water. The result is the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and you may feel that you look tired, old or sad. Treatments with dermal fillers help to restore and maintain a youthful-looking appearance and regain lost confidence3.

Restylane® Classyc is a firmer dermal filler treatment that can be used to fill wrinkles where you have good tissue coverage. Restylane® Refyne and Restylane® Defyne are softer and more flexible dermal filler treatments that can be used to improve the more dynamic areas of your face, such as around the lips, the nasolabial folds and the marionette lines4. Restylane® helps you refine your looks and realize your individual needs and desires.

Treatment areas

Restylane® treatment areas

The Restylane® family of dermal filler treatments can be used to reduce lines and wrinkles and help you achieve a refined and natural look. Treatment areas include fine lines around the mouth and eyes, as well as nasolabial folds and marionette lines.

“And if you then all of a sudden see how signs of aging, signs of tiredness or negative expressions are erased from your face, that’s a very positive experience and usually you can see this when the patient looks in the mirror. Their face starts smiling, and that is a very rewarding moment really for an aesthetic doctor.”

Your Restylane® treatment

A treatment with Restylane® takes approximately 15-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. You might need a touch-up treatment after the initial treatment to optimize your results. Restylane® filler treatments contain lidocaine, a local anaesthetic that takes away most of the discomfort during treatment. 

Immediately after your dermal filler treatment, you may experience some post-treatment side effects, such as redness, swelling, pain, bruising or tenderness at the treatment site. These side effects usually disappear within one week after injection. Though fillers are minimally invasive, they still carry some risks. Before the treatment, discuss all possible risks and benefits with your healthcare practitioner. View Important Safety Information.

Restylane® gives you long-lasting but non-permanent results, meaning you can continuously refine your looks. 

How it works
The Galderma aesthetics range, RESTYLANE and Restylane Refyne - The science behind

How it works

Hyaluronic acid is a substance that has a unique ability to bind water. Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in our bodies and in all layers of our skin. It keeps your body tissues soft, hydrated, and flexible. However, as we age, the body’s ability to produce hyaluronic acid lessens, leading to dry, thinner skin.  

Natural hyaluronic acid in the body degrades quickly, in one to two days. To make the hyaluronic acid in Restylane® Defyne and Restylane® Refyne last longer — Galderma has used stabilization technologies that delay degradation.

 
Restylane® contains a hyaluronic acid gel with a firmer consistency and Restylane® Refyne contains a gel with a more flexible consistency to target different kinds of lines and wrinkles.

Upon its launch in 1996, Restylane® was the first ever non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid treatment filler. Restylane® has become the gold standard of dermal fillers treatments.

Frequently asked questions

You will always have a consultation before your first treatment. Think through what you want to achieve and the questions you may have. Your healthcare practitioner will inform you how Restylane® dermal filler treatments can be used safely to suit your individual aspirations. You will also be asked about your medical history. When you leave your consultation, you should feel well-informed about Restylane® dermal filler treatments, and you should know what results to expect.

You should always contact a qualified healthcare practitioner. One option is to search for licensed aesthetic treatment specialists in national registries. Your treatment should be performed in a spotlessly clean medical environment that affords you privacy.

Only a medically qualified practitioner should perform Restylane® treatments. Depending on your country’s legislation, this may include plastic surgeons, cosmetic clinicians, dermatologists, cosmetic dentists, or aesthetic nurses. If in doubt, please see our list of certified clinics/practitioners close to you.  

You should receive comprehensive information and a detailed explanation regarding your Restylane® dermal filler treatment.

•    You should be informed of the possibilities and limitations of treatments with hyaluronic acid.
•    You should receive information about possible side effects and precautions for treatment.
•    You should be informed of the cost of the treatment and possible follow-up treatments.
•    Your questions should be answered to your full satisfaction.

There are several important precautions to discuss with your healthcare practitioner to ensure satisfactory results and avoid any complications. Discuss the following with your healthcare practitioner:
•    If you are taking immunosuppressive medications
•    If you are taking aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or any other medication that affects bleeding
•    If you have any questions about precautions related to the treatment

First, the healthcare practitioner disinfects the area to be treated. A small amount of the appropriate Restylane® dermal filler treatment is then injected into the skin through a fine needle or blunt micro-cannula to fill wrinkles, add volume, shape your face or fill your lips. After the injection, your practitioner may gently massage the treated area to even out the result.
