Dermal Fillers in the US
Dermal fillers are a popular cosmetic procedure used to replace lost volume and smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. These fillers are made from a variety of materials, with the most common being hyaluronic acid or HA. This naturally occurring substance is found in large amounts throughout the body and is responsible for keeping the skin hydrated and plump. As we age, our body’s production of hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. Injectable dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid work by replenishing the skin’s natural levels of this substance, restoring its youthful volume and smoothness.

What is Restylane?

Restylane is a trusted and FDA-approved dermal filler that uses hyaluronic acid to add volume and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and facial folds. Whether you want to plump your lips, smooth out nasolabial folds, or restore volume to your cheeks, Restylane can provide natural-looking results that enhance your facial features. Our skilled dermatologists will assess your unique needs and customize a treatment plan to deliver the desired outcome.
What Can I Expect at A Restylane Treatment?
The Restylane treatment process is performed by our Master-Level Injector, Jennifer Faunce, BSN, RN, in our aesthetic center. The process can take anywhere from 15 – 45 minutes, depending on the areas that are being treated. We offer local anesthetic or topical numbing cream for our patients, plus the Restylane products have lidocaine in them, which helps to reduce discomfort during the treatment. The procedure is minimally invasive, and patients can resume their day after the treatment is performed.
Is Restylane Safe?
Like any injectable procedure, there are risks associated with Restylane treatment. The most common side effects we see at Blue Ridge Dermatology include swelling, pin-point bruising, and redness at the injection site, which typically resolve within a few days. If you are concerned about potential risks, you should ensure that the medical practice and injector are experienced professionals. Our Master-Level Aesthetic injector has years of experience treating individuals like you with Restylane.

Restylane Advantages
Gentle Ingredients
Specifically formulated to act like your body’s own naturally produced hyaluronic acid, Restylane provides support and structure in the lips and smile lines.
Restylane uses gentle ingredients. Instead of ingredients that may stress the skin, Restylane uses hyaluronic acid, a natural sugar compound in the skin that helps the skin retain moisture. The moisture retention from hyaluronic acid immediately increases the volume of your skin from the sub-dermal layer so your skin will appear plumper and the visible signs of aging will be smoothed away.
No Recovery Period
Dermal fillers like Restylane have no recovery period, unlike plastic surgery. As a minimally invasive treatment, Restylane does not have any lengthy recovery time after your appointment. The vast majority of patients immediately go back to work or their other daily activities after their treatment, although you will need to follow the aftercare instructions given to you by your provider.
Immediate Results
As soon as you receive Restylane injections, you’ll see the results immediately. Your results will continue to improve with every hour after your treatment, and the best results will appear within two weeks of the treatment process. Your results will look natural, your problem areas will disappear, and you’ll feel better about your appearance. Not only will you receive immediate results post-treatment that will continue to improve in the weeks following your injections, but those results will last for a significant amount of time. Typically, Restylane fillers last anywhere from six to twelve months.
Customizable Treatment
You can also fully customize your treatment by using different variants in the Restylane collection. Fillers like Lyft, Defyne, and Kysse are all designed to address different areas of concern. From restoring volume lost in the back of the hands to augmenting the shape of the lips, this collection of fillers will help you achieve all of your aesthetic goals.
