Frequently asked questions

What happens to skin when I am aging?

     Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. Its job is to help provide fullness and elasticity. Over time, skin loses hyaluronic acid. As it diminishes, skin loses volume, increasing the chances for wrinkles and folds to appear.
 

Can I improve my skin appearance?

     You have the power to influence your appearance. Restylane and Perlane provide rejuvenating cosmetic beauty treatments for a natural, younger-looking you. Restylane is the world's best-selling dermal filler. It is well tolerated, nonsurgical and long lasting (usually around six months).

What is the difference between Restylane or Perlane?

     Restylane and Perlane are both composed of hyaluronic acid. Perlane has larger gel particles and is intended to be injected deeper within the skin.
 

How does skin age?

     Young skin is smooth and full. Your skin is going to change with age. But the good news is, there's something you can do about it.

1 – Restylane or Perlane is injected into the skin to restore volume to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds).

2 – Restylane or Perlane gives natural-looking results by restoring your skin's fullness.

How do Restylane and Perlane work?

     The idea is simple—Restylane and Perlane are cosmetic dermal fillers that add volume within the skin. They consist of hyaluronic acid. In the human body, natural hyaluronic acid provides volume and fullness to skin. After treatment with Restylane or Perlane, the hydrophilic, or "water loving," nature of the hyaluronic acid molecules allows them to bind many times their own weight in water as they slowly break down. This process helps maintain volume for about six months.

What do Restylane and Perlane do?

     The explanation is really quite simple. Restylane and Perlane both use hyaluronic acid to replace lost volume and restore youthful contours to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). But what they don't do is just as important. You'll still look like yourself—just rejuvenated.

Are Restylane and Perlane  safe?

     Restylane is the world's most studied cosmetic dermal filler with more than a decade of use. Restylane and Perlane have well-defined safety profiles and are approved for the treatment of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Restylane has been used in over 1.4 million treatments in the U.S. and is available in more than 70 countries, with dozens of studies published in medical literature. Clinical studies have shown no significant differences in the safety of Restylane and Perlane.

     Restylane and Perlane contain no animal proteins. This may limit the risk of animal-based disease transmission or allergic reactions. Both products contain trace amounts of gram positive bacterial proteins and are contraindicated for patients with a history of allergies to such material. No allergy testing is required before use.

What side effects can I experience after Restylane® or Perlane® treatment?

     After your treatment with Restylane or Perlane, you may have some swelling, redness, pain, bruising, and tenderness. This will normally last less than seven days.
