The most widely seen potential mild side effects are swelling, headache, pain, soreness, lump formation, bruising, and itching at the injection site. There is no downtime and regular activities may be resumed immediately after the procedure.

There are certain things you should do to prepare for a Restylane filler. Our practitioners will provide you with a detailed list of instructions. A few precautions would be to avoid any blood thinning medications and supplements such as Aspirin, Tylenol, Vitamin E, ginseng, and garlic 3 to 5 days before the procedure.

Refrain from taking Aspirin, NSAID, St. John’s Wort, a blood thinner, and high doses of Vitamin E supplements for one week after treatment, as these substances may increase the chances of bruising and bleeding.

Additionally, avoid vigorous physical activity and exposure to excessive heat for the first 24 hours after treatment. This may cause temporary redness, swelling, and itching at the injection site.

Yes, Restylane is an effective solution for deep wrinkles and folds. It works particularly well on moderate to severe facial wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines. This dermal filler uses hyaluronic acid to add volume and smooth these areas. For deeper wrinkles and folds, specific products like Restylane “Defyne” are specially formulated to deliver optimal results.

Restylane and Juvederm are both hyaluronic acid-based fillers, but they differ in texture and use. Restylane has a granular, cohesive consistency, making it ideal for precise facial contouring, deep creases, and under-eye areas. It is moldable, allowing for more defined shapes. Juvederm, on the other hand, is a smooth, gel-like filler that spreads easily and is often used for larger facial areas. It attracts more water, offering greater volume and a subtle lip plump over time, while Restylane maintains consistent volume. Juvederm typically lasts a bit longer, but both options are non-invasive and safer alternatives to surgery.
