Restylane FAQ's

Who is a candidate for Restylane?

Restylane carries little risk of complication and is very safe for a wide variety of people. You may be a candidate for Restylane if you would like to boost your self-confidence and enhance your youthful glow with minimally-invasive fillers. Fillers are also ideal for those who want to diminish signs of aging without downtime away from their busy schedules. Restylane will allow you to maintain your lifestyle with minimal side effects and virtually no downtime.

How long does Restylane last?

The longevity of your Restylane fillers will depend on where it was injected, the exact product used, and your body's metabolism. The less movement that exists in the treated area, the longer the filler will last. For example, it can last up to four months when used to enhance the lips, but in other areas it may last six to nine months. The formula is completely safe and maintenance injections can be performed as needed.

Can injectables be combined with other cosmetic procedures?

Absolutely. Our practice understands that Restylane alone may not be able to address all of your concerns. If you would also like to improve your skin tone or texture, additional skin rejuvenation treatments, chemical peels, or other non-surgical treatments can be added to your treatment plan.

Sometimes fillers are even used to complement a surgical procedure. For example, filler can be used to enhance the lips after a nose job to bring harmony to your facial features. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to cosmetic procedures, and CIARAVINO Total Beauty creates a unique treatment plan for each individual patient.
