The aging process is inescapable and for years people have tried countless products that promises results that end up falling short or end up producing very unnatural results. However, Restylane is a revolutionary product in the skin care world because of its very natural formula. Restylane has also become widely popular across genders, and despite early age, been used as a preventative measure to get ahead of the aging process. If you’re looking to restore your skin and its appearance, Restylane may be a great option to consider. The following provides you with the benefits Restylane offers and how exactly it works to restore the volume and shape to ultimately produce a youthful appearance.

Benefit #1: It’s Natural

Restylane has many benefits that have been proven effective in more than 1.2 million Americans in 2009 alone. Since Restylane is made up of biodegradable bacteria proteins as opposed to animal proteins there is rarely room for any types of allergic reactions. Restylane is FDA approved and is comprised of hyaluronic acid that is naturally produced in the skin. Hyaluronic acid exists in abundance when you are young and it’s such an important element of looking hydrated. However, with age there is less and less hyaluronic acid causing the skin to sag and wrinkles to appear. Restylane restores volume and enhances your natural shape and definition to produce a youthful appearance which is why anyone struggling with early signs of aging could benefit from treatments as well. When it comes to the procedure the doctor will decide how much Restylane is needed to treat the targeted area. The recovery process can take up to 2 weeks to fully be healed of all bruising however most bruising will begin to heal days after the initial treatment.

Benefit #2: It Can Be Used In More Than One Place

Restylane is widely popular because of its versatility, it smooths facial wrinkles, it can be injected into saggy earlobes and can even be used for loose skin around the hands and feet. Most patients aim to restore volume in specific facial areas such as cheeks, mouth/nose folds, lips, and around the eyes. The doctor could also recommend areas that would benefit from Restylane treatments during the consultation. The overall appearance of your skin will be noticeably transformed by refreshing and improving its condition. Additionally, Restylane treatments are fairly quick procedures that usually take 15-30 minutes depending on the area you are treating. The results can be seen immediately as the volume beneath the skin starts to smooth out after the injection.

Benefit #3: It Lasts Fairly Long

Restylane lasts twice as long as traditional collagen and fat injections lasting up to six months to a year in some cases. How long the Restylane lasts is linked to how fast your body metabolizes the filler. Additionally, where ever Restylane is injected also plays a role as to how long the Restylane will lasts, if it is administered in a location where there is great muscle movement the body will metabolize it faster. Most importantly, Restylane produces very natural looking results, there is no temporary “frozen expression” that other fillers are known to cause. It is a very efficient process and most patients resume their normal everyday activities as early as the following day.
