Restylane® filler is injected using a very fine needle or a micro-cannula to achieve your desired outcomes, and your provider may gently massage the area after the initial injection.
After your treatment, results are visible immediately. For the first 1-2 weeks, it is normal to experience side effects such as swelling, bruising, redness, or tenderness at the injection site.
To ensure that you are a good candidate for hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, your provider will have an in-depth consultation with you prior to treatment.
Targeted Areas
Each of the Restylane® fillers is designed to provide natural, lasting results for specific areas of concern.
● Restylane® Kysse and Restylane® Silk both target the lips and wrinkles surrounding the mouth known as perioral wrinkles.
● Restylane® Lyft is indicated for moderate to severe wrinkles and volume loss. Some of the most common targeted areas include nasolabial folds, cheeks, and hands.
● Restylane®, Restylane®-L , and Restylane® Refyne are versatile fillers with varying consistencies and volumes. They are all used to target multiple facial concerns, including moderate to severe wrinkles, facial folds, and, in some cases, lips.
● Restylane® Defyne is used to target facial wrinkles and folds, as well as the chin. Chin augmentation using Restylane® Devyne balances the profile for patients with chin retrusion.
How Does It Work?
The Restylane® family of fillers is composed of non-animal hyaluronic acid and is developed to mimic the hyaluronic acid that occurs naturally in the human body.
Restylane® fillers vary in volume and texture in order to take on the natural look and feel of the treated area.
How Long Does It Last?
The duration of results may vary based on the treated area and the degree of correction.
With full treatment, some results can last as long as 12-18 months, however maintenance appointments within 6-9 months are typically recommended.
Sculptra®
Sculptra® stimulates the body’s natural collagen production to help restore fullness and volume.
ManufacturerGalderma
About Sculptra®
Over time, due to natural aging, our bodies produce less collagen. This, combined with environmental factors like sun exposure, often leaves us with less elasticity and volume as well as visible signs of aging.
Sculptra® works over time to gradually stimulate collagen production from within, restoring the skin's natural fullness and correcting wrinkles, folds, fat loss, and many other signs of aging.
What Can I Expect?
Sculptra®’s non-invasive treatments can last anywhere from 15-40 minutes. Typically, your provider will apply a numbing cream to the treatment area and will use a very fine needle for injecting. Sculptra® is not a quick fix, results become apparent over time through a series of treatments.
Though results appear gradually, full correction can achieve results lasting up to two years.
Targeted Areas
Sculptra® targets visible signs of aging such as volume loss, skin depressions, folds, wrinkles, scars, and facial fat loss (lipoatrophy). Sculptra® is also known for off label uses, most notably nonsurgical Brazillian Butt Lift (BBL), also known as "Sculptra® Butt Lift." Treatment plans vary from patient to patient based on their specific needs.
How Does It Work?
The key component of Sculptra® is Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA). Once injected, PLLA gradually induces collagen production that is significant enough to fill out hollowness, folds, fat loss, and other signs of aging.
How Long Does It Last?
A typical treatment plan may consist of a minimum of three Sculptra® appointments over the course of several months. Individuals who are older, thinner, or exercise vigorously.
