At PVPS, we offer Restylane in Jacksonville, a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.
Is Restylane good for lip enhancement?
Restylane is one of the more popular dermal fillers used to add volume to the lips. Restylane Kysse, especially, is excellent for the lips because it adds volume and definition to the lips and the lip border. Patients must be 21 years of age to receive this injection. Lip enhancement results using Restylane typically last up to six months.
What is the best area for Restylane?
A Restylane injection replaces lost volume on the face and can be used to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles that are most commonly found from the nose to the mouth. These are known as “nasolabial folds” and “laugh lines”. The injection is also commonly used around the corners of the mouth that extend downward (“marionette lines”).
How often should I treat myself?
Most results will last a full year; however, some patients may choose to return between 5-9 months for a follow-up injection, which is safe to have at that time. Our office can set you up on a treatment regime so that the results remain optimal throughout the weeks and months following each session.
What alternative fillers are there?
While Restylane offers great benefits for patients seeking skin rejuvenation, there are other injectable fillers that may be considered as well. Some of these are comprised of materials such as collagen, polylactic acid, and calcium hydroxyapatite. During your consultation, we will discuss the various fillers that are available today and work with you to understand your aesthetic goals so that the best filler choice can be made.
Can Restylane be used under the eyes?
Yes, Restylane is commonly used to address under-eye hollows and dark circles by adding volume and reducing shadows. Restylane-L and Restylane Silk are popular choices for this delicate area, providing subtle and natural-looking results.
How long does a Restylane treatment session take?
A typical Restylane treatment session lasts about 30 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. This makes it a convenient option for those seeking quick, effective results with minimal downtime.
Are there any side effects with Restylane?
Side effects are generally mild and may include temporary redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These effects typically resolve within a few days. Our specialists will provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimize discomfort and ensure optimal healing.
Can Restylane results be reversed?
Yes, Restylane results can be reversed using an enzyme called hyaluronidase, which breaks down hyaluronic acid. This is a safe and effective option if adjustments are needed or if you wish to dissolve the filler entirely.
Is Restylane suitable for first-time filler patients?
Restylane is an excellent choice for first-time filler patients due to its natural composition and versatile applications. Our team will guide you through the process and create a personalized treatment plan to ensure you feel comfortable and achieve your desired results.
