Restylane®

Hylauronic acid filler distributed by Medicis, Inc. Restylane is a cross linked sugar gel that is used to correct wrinkles, volumize the nasolabial fold and lips. This is the basis for filling in the hollow under the eyes and improving dark circles using the Deepfill™ method. Restylane appears to last about a year. Treatments can be adjusted, if needed, at anytime using hyaluronidase, making the treatment highly flexible. Bovine Collagen was the gold standard of fillers for many years but has now been displaced by Restylane® which is now the filler to which all others are compared.
