Restylane logo

Restylane is an extremely versatile hyaluronic acid filler commonly used around the mouth, under the eyes, and in the lips to provide elegant, subtle rejuvenation.  

What to Expect Before and During Treatment

There are no special preparations required prior to Restylane injection. Discontinuing the use of aspirin or blood thinners 10-14 days prior to Restylane treatment will reduce the likelihood of bruising; however, if the use of blood thinners (even baby aspirin) has been recommended by a doctor, you must obtain permission before discontinuing these products.

Injections take under 30 minutes and are well-tolerated due to injection technique as well as numbing medication present in all hyaluronic acid fillers. 

What to Expect After Treatment

Mild discomfort and swelling are common after any injectable treatment. Should bruising occur, call our office to schedule a complimentary laser treatment to help the bruise resolve more quickly. Please contact us immediately if you develop significant bruising following injection.

The duration of effect will vary with the location in which Restlyane was placed. Injections under the eyes frequently last substantially longer than those administered in the lips. Dr. Biesman and the nursing staff will help determine when you are ready for additional injections.
