Restylane® & Perlane® are cosmetic dermal fillers that replace lost volume and restore youthful contours to the skin to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth (nasolabial folds). Restylane is the world's most used, most studied dermal filler, and has been used in over 70 countries and in more than 1.4 million treatments in the U.S. The procedure is non-surgical, and its effects are virtually instantaneous.
Restylane® has a highly favorable safety profile. It
is composed of non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic
acid is a substance found naturally in the human body. Restylane®
is fully biocompatible. There is limited risk of animal-based
disease transmission or development of allergic reactions
to animal proteins. No allergy testing is required before
use.*
Restylane® maintains its shape using the body's own
moisture. The hyaluronic acid in these fillers is hydrophilic
or "water loving." As hyaluronic acid gradually
degrades, each molecule binds to more water and over time,
the same volume can be maintained with less hyaluronic acid.
This ability of hyaluronic acid to bind to water is what
helps provide long-lasting results.
Unlike rooster-derived hyaluronic acids and bovine collagen
products, Restylane® is free from animal proteins. This
limits any risk of animal-based disease transmissions or
development of allergic reactions to animal proteins.*
