RESTYLANE® IN FAIRFAX, VA & WASHINGTON, D.C.
What Is Restylane®?
Restylane® is an FDA-approved dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid that restores volume to the skin, lifting and smoothing out wrinkles and other fine lines.
This procedure is most commonly used to treat the glabellar lines, between the forehead and the nasolabial folds. It can also be used to add volume and shape to the lips.
Since Restylane® is made from a natural substance found in the body, no pre-testing is required. Restylane® produces results that last for several months through its unique ability to bind with water and remain in the skin. The results of this procedure are visible right away and can last for several months, depending on the condition of the individual patient’s skin.
