Restore Volume & Elasticity

U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved Restylane® injectable gel is a cosmetic “filler” that contains hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural substance that is found in the body.

HA gives volume and elasticity to the skin, but as the body ages, HA levels decrease, resulting in loose skin and wrinkling. When injected, Restylane gel is designed to plump the skin beneath lines and wrinkles, smoothing them out and making them less noticeable.

The Solution: The most common areas for Restylane treatment are the glabellar lines (between the eyebrows) and the nasolabial folds (from the nose to the corners of the mouth). It is also FDA-approved for lip enhancement in patients 21 and older.

Benefits of Restylane Gel

When injected, Restylane gel plumps up glabellar lines and nasolabial folds, making skin appear younger and look smoother.

  • Fuller Lips
    When used for lip enhancement, it makes the lips fuller and gives them more definition.
  • No Allergy Testing
    Contains nothing of animal origin. As a result, it does not require a potential user to undergo allergy testing.
  • Fast & Convenient
    Restylane injections are performed in-office, usually by a professional, in less than half an hour.
  • Minimal Downtime
    The procedure requires little-to-no downtime, allowing you to return to normal activities quickly.
