As we age, soft tissue in the face degenerates, resulting in a thinning of the skin and a loss of firmness, plumpness and elasticity. This leads to sagging, sinking and a general flattening of facial features.
Before Restylane®
Loss of volume in the face causes
greater prominence of wrinkles and
furrows, as well as blood vessels and
bone structures.
FOREHEAD
Horizontal lines across the forehead and vertical lines
between the eyebrows become more pronounced.
EYES
Eyebrows droop and hollows form under the eyes –
creating a tired appearance.
CHEEKS
Cheeks become hollow, sunken and sagging.
MOUTH AND LIPS
Nasolabial folds become more prominent. Lips
become thinner and the Cupid's bow loses definition.
Marionette lines and pre-jowl depressions deepen
beside the mouth.
JAWLINE
The jawline loses definition. Sagging skin and fat
displacement can lead to the formation of jowls.
CHIN
The chin can appear to shrink and droop.
After Restylane®
Restylane adds volume, helping you to
look fresher and more youthful, or to
shape your facial features to create a
more distinctive personal appearance.
FOREHEAD
Restylane can ease the lines across the forehead and
between the eyebrows.
EYES
Restylane can give an eyebrow lift and fill hollows
under the eyes. Restylane can also smooth away fine,
superficial lines in the eye area.
CHEEKS
Adding volume with Restylane can create the
appearance of more prominent cheekbones or
smoother cheek contours.
MOUTH AND LIPS
Restylane can be used to minimize nasolabial folds, to
add plumpness to lips, or to improve lip border volume
for better definition.
JAWLINE
Restylane can increase volume to firm and define
the jawline.
CHIN
Restylane can increase the size of the chin and lift any
signs of drooping. Just a small amount of volume can
make a difference.

Surgery can help tighten the skin and botulinum toxin
injections can relax facial muscles to release dynamic
wrinkles,
but neither can replace lost volume. With Restylane® and Juvederm® products, you can ensure the most effective
solution for restoring volume reducing the signs of
aging and helping you look fresher and more youthful.
EFFECTS OF LOST VOLUME
• Forehead lines and nasolabial folds become prominent
• Eyebrows droop
• Lips become thinner and the Cupid‘s bow loses
definition
• Marionette lines and pre-jowl depressions deepen
beside the mouth
• Wrinkles, furrows, blood vessels and bone structures
become more visible
When the appropriate filler is recommended for you, it
is injected into the skin; the result is
increased volume –
softening wrinkles
and folds on the face. Increased volume
can create facial fullness
and symmetry,
enhance certain facial features, and
lessen the signs of aging.
Filler products feature different gel particle
sizes that are utilized for different effects
and
purposes – from eliminating tiny lines to enhancing
facial contours.
Your aesthetic physician will choose
the right product combination to create the look
you desire.
Both Restylane and Juvederm particles are
composed of hyaluronic acid,
a natural substance already present
in the human body.
Restylane and Juvederm are fully biocompatible and treatments can
be carried out immediately, with
no need to wait for
allergy testing. Treatments usually take around 30
minutes and effects
generally last for about six months to a year.
