Restylane® has been used for more than 16 years in over 65 countries across the globe. Researchers discovered that as people age, their skin loses the capacity to bind to water, leading to dry, aged skin. Hyaluronic acid, a natural ingredient located in the dermis (middle layer of the skin), aids in the preservation of water. When the skin is able to retain more water, the result is fuller, healthier and younger looking skin. Restylane® is one of the most researched fillers on the market and is considered safe and effective when administered by an experienced injector.
At Skinova Medspa we offer variety of Restylane® Fillers. Restylane® is a FDA-approved dermal filler made of a biodegradable, non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA). Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in all living organisms and provides volume and fullness to the skin. Restylane® is a gel of hyaluronic acid generated by Streptococcus species of bacteria. It is produced biotechnologically by natural fermentation in a sterile laboratory environment. This significantly diminishes the risk of transmitting diseases between species or of eliciting allergic reactions in patients who are sensitive to common foods, such as beef, chicken and eggs. Restylane does not require any allergy or skin test prior to injection.
Restylane® is indicated for mid-to-deep dermal implantation for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. Restylane® is also indicated for submucosal implantation for lip augmentation in patients over the age of 21.
Restylane® is formulated as a clear gel and uses a dual mechanism of action to correct moderate to severe wrinkles and folds. Upon being injected beneath the skin's surface, Restylane® gel integrates into dermal tissue then attracts and binds to water molecules to help maintain volume. Restylane® is gradually degraded by the body's own mechanism and disappears without any residue. Results can be seen immediately following Restylane® treatment and for up to six months. Restylane® is a gel of hyaluronic acid generated by a Streptococcus species of bacteria. As opposed to other hyaluronic acid products, NASHA is not derived from animal sources. It is produced biotechnologically by natural fermentation in a sterile laboratory environment. This significantly diminishes the risk of transmitting diseases between species or of eliciting allergic reactions in patients who are sensitive to common foods, such as beef, chicken and eggs. Restylane® does not require any allergy or skin test prior to injection.
