Buy Restylane

Restylane is a product that is used to improve the outward appearance of the lips by providing them with additional volume and contouring. This product is a specific formulation of hyaluronic acid derived from non-animal sources. Hyaluronic acid is a natural sugar compound; the manufactured product resembles a clear, slightly gelled liquid.

As of 2010, Restylane had been used in over 11 million separate treatment sessions; among stabilized hyaluronic acid filler products, it was the first one to reach the market. It was also the first such product to receive approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use as a cosmetic injection into sub dermal tissue in the face.

Uses of Restylane: Wrinkle Reduction

Produced by Q-Med, Restylane is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and age lines on the face as well as to plump and contour lip tissue. When used to improve the appearance of the face, it is commonly injected underneath age lines and wrinkles. Common injection sites include the nasolabial folds, which are the lines extending from the nose to the mouth; frown lines, which are horizontal wrinkles crossing the forehead; and crow's feet, which are wrinkles extending from the outer corners of the eyes.

Other Uses of Restylane

Restylane can also be utilized to fill in facial hollows related to aging. Another use is to inject the filler into the areas around and under the eyes; this part of the face is referred to as the "orbital troughs." In addition, patients who buy Restylane can have it injected in ways that enhance cheek volume and provide for contouring of the major features of the face including the nose, chin, and forehead.

Restylane is sometimes used when additional volume is not desired. In this case, its primary function is to improve the skin’s elasticity. Common treatment areas for this use of Restylane include the hands, neck, and cleavage area, as well as the face.

Treatment and Follow-Up

Restylane treatments are an outpatient procedure typically administered in a doctor's office. Most patients who buy Restylane are between the ages of 35 to 60. Since injections may cause discomfort, particularly in the lip area, many physicians administer a local anesthetic before starting the treatment. The Restylane injection itself contains no lidocaine or other pain killing agents.

A typical procedure lasts up to half an hour, but takes much less time if there are only a few injection sites. Patients generally take a short time to recover in the doctor's office and are then able to go home. Most patients fully recover within two to three days after the injections, though factors such as age, lifestyle, and skin type can affect recovery times. Follow-up sessions with Restylane usually occur at six to twelve month intervals after the initial treatment. Lip treatments in particular last approximately six months before needing to be renewed.
