What does Dr. Steinsapir think of Perlane®?
Perlane® is distributed by Medicis, Inc., the company responsible for Restylane®. Perlane® is a thicker material than Restylane® and seems to last a few months longer than Restylane®. This time frame seems to be well over a year, which is amazing. The material is fantastic for volumizing the face including the cheeks, eyebrow, chin, and perioral area. Again, these areas have much more fat to work with than the lower eyelid dark circle. Perlane® is commonly used in the top of the cheek to compliment the Restylane® volume used in the dark circle/lower eyelid hollow.
