Restylane® is an FDA-approved collection of injectable fillers used to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles, smooth marionette lines around the mouth, and plump the lips. Restylane® fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. Results typically last between three to six months. The effects of Restylane® injections usually last about six months. As with other dermal fillers, side effects of Restylane® treatments can include temporary bruising, swelling, and numbness. These usually subside within a few days.
There are three types of Restylane®
