Restylane® (Hyaluronic Acid Filler)

What is Restylane dermal filler?

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.

Common areas treated with Restylane

The most common areas for Restylane treatment are the glabellar lines (which run between the eyebrows) and the nasolabial folds (which run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth). Restylane injectable gel is also FDA-approved, for those 21 and older, for enhancing the lips. According to manufacturer Galderma, results can last from 6 months to one year, at which point the hyaluronic acid is reabsorbed by the body.

Restylane Kysse

Restylane Kysse is specifically designed to provide flexible movement and natural-looking volume that is proven to last for up to 1 year. It effectively adds volume, smooths upper lip lines, and enhances lip color.

“I went to Dr. Claytor for a lip augmentation in June 2016. Every aspect of the office visit was exceptional from the front office staff, to the procedure itself. Dr. Claytor is a physician who takes great pride in the patient experience, and the outcomes of your procedure. I’m a very hesitant patient when it comes to plastic surgery. I prefer results that look natural, and I want the least “down time” possible. Dr. Claytor checked in on my thoughts throughout the process to ensure I was comfortable with the amount of product used, and how Inwas feeling. I’ve had lip procesures before and have always looked bruised afterwards. With just a little bit of ice, and a carefully handed surgeon, I did not show a single bruise and my lips were more than ok to show in public immediately after. I was so pleased with my experience at Dr. Claytors office and I will definitely be back in the future. Thank Dr. Claytor- and Debbie Lander- for taking such great care of your patients!”
