When you lose facial volume and notice fine lines…
The gradual loss of facial volume is a natural part of aging that can negatively affect how you feel. Over time, your body produces less hyaluronic acid and collagen, two substances that keep your skin hydrated, firm, and plump. Hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture, while collagen provides structure and elasticity. As their levels decrease, your skin loses its fullness, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. Dermal fillers like Restylane can reduce these effects and help your vitality.
What is Restylane®?
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler designed to restore volume and smooth out wrinkles in your skin. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in your body that helps maintain skin hydration and elasticity. Restylane treatments effectively address fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss, particularly in areas like the cheeks, lips, and around the eyes. By replenishing hyaluronic acid levels, Restylane in Berkeley revitalizes your skin. It offers immediate results with minimal downtime, helping you achieve a refreshed and confident appearance.
Issues addressed with Restylane®
- Loss of facial volume, particularly in the cheeks and under the eyes
- Fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, eyes, and forehead
- Thinning lips and loss of lip definition
- Sagging skin and decreased skin elasticity
- Deep nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth)
- Marionette lines (lines running from the corners of the mouth down to the chin)
- Tired or aged appearance despite feeling well-rested
Restylane vs BOTOX®
Restylane and BOTOX serve different cosmetic purposes. Restylane, a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler, restores volume and smooths out wrinkles by hydrating and plumping the skin. It is ideal for treating fine lines and deep folds and enhancing facial contours. BOTOX, on the other hand, is a neuromodulator that relaxes facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Depending on your unique needs, the two procedures can be performed individually or together.
The steps involved in your Restylane® treatment
During your Restylane in Berkeley, Dr. Eliasieh will first conduct a thorough consultation to understand your goals and assess your facial structure. We will cleanse the treatment area and may apply a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Using a fine needle, we will inject Restylane into targeted areas, carefully sculpting and smoothing as needed to achieve natural-looking enhancement. The procedure typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.
After your treatment, you may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising, which usually subsides within a few days. It is important to avoid strenuous activities, sun exposure, and alcohol for at least 24 hours. We will provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results. With proper care, your results can last several months, keeping you looking refreshed and rejuvenated.
