Everyone’s skin ages, but not in the same way. Various factors impact the appearance of visible signs of aging, some of which are controllable, such as sun exposure, skin care products, nutrition, and sleep quality. However, other factors are out of your control, like genetics, gravity, and exposure to environmental toxins.
Dermal fillers are injectables that can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve visible signs of aging, and make you look as young as you feel. One popular option for dermal fillers is Restylane in Atlanta. Please schedule a consultation with our team at Advanced Aesthetics Plastic Surgery Center to learn more about this transformative product.
What Is Restylane?
Restylane is a brand of dermal filler made with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring compound in your body found in the skin. It helps to maintain your skin’s moisture and elasticity, two critical factors to a youthful-looking appearance.
Restylane products are commonly used in the cheeks, lips, chin, marionette lines and nasolabial folds.. They can also fill in scars and rejuvenate the back of your hands. In addition, Restylane causes less swelling than other products, so it is preferred for the hollows under your eyes, which might be one of the more challenging areas to inject.
Different Restylane Products and Their Purpose
We understand that what makes you an individual is also what makes you beautiful. That is why we use Restylane to achieve natural-looking results that meet your cosmetic goals and offer the aesthetic changes you desire.
Restylane offers several products with benefits that help improve our Atlanta patients’ aesthetics. Each one is formulated to work best in certain regions of your face and accomplish specific purposes.
Restylane-L

Restylane Lyft
Restylane Lyft fillers work best on the cheeks and help correct age-related mid-face shape changes. It also contains lidocaine and can be used for facial wrinkles and folds.

Restylane Silk is used for lip augmentation and to smooth smoker lines around the mouth. It provides a subtle enhancement, so you do not have that “just worked on” look.

Restylane Defyne
Restylane Defyne is designed for deeper laugh lines and supports your face while allowing natural facial expressions.
Restylane Contour
This product helps shape cheeks and can add volume to areas of the face that have changed with age.
The Science Behind How Restylane Works
Restylane offers a quick, non-surgical treatment with nearly instant results and no downtime for our patients in Atlanta, though it is important to note that bruising and swelling is always common with filler placement. Most Restylane fillers are infused with lidocaine to help minimize pain during and after injection. Restylane contains hyaluronic acid but may also help stimulate collagen production, which naturally helps to improve volume loss in your skin over time.
Because the product uses hyaluronic acid, an enzyme can partially or completely dissolve the filler if you are unhappy with the results. However, the effects are typically temporary, lasting approximately 12 months. While Restylane offers some rejuvenation, it cannot replace a surgical facelift.
Restylane uses a stabilized form of hyaluronic acid with cross-linking technology. The hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water, giving you a youthful look. This does not degrade as quickly and has a higher water retention capacity. While you see immediate results, the hyaluronic acid can take up to a week to integrate fully and produce the final look.
