At Coachlight we offer several options for injectable dermal fillers, including the Restylane family of fillers. Our expert injectors will take time to discuss your concerns and provide a recommendation of the appropriate injectable filler.

Restylane® is a leading hyaluronic acid filler that does more than reduce wrinkles. It restores significant volume and fullness to your skin, effectively addressing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial lines. It’s also ideal for enhancing lips and refining chin profiles, offering a refreshed, youthful look without invasive surgery. Visit Coachlight Clinic in West Des Moines and Ankeny, Iowa, to discover how Restylane® can transform your skin, replenishing lost elasticity and volume reversing the signs of aging, and leaving your skin smoother and more voluminous.

Restylane® Overview

Restylane® provides a comprehensive selection of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers, meticulously designed for natural-looking results. Tailored to various aesthetic needs, these products are ideal for smoothing wrinkles and fine lines, enhancing lip fullness, restoring cheek volume, and addressing hand volume loss. The Restylane® lineup, including Lyft, Refyne, Defyne, L, Kysse, and Silk, is crafted to rejuvenate the skin, maintain its youthful glow, diminish wrinkles, and subtly enhance your natural beauty.

How Restylane® Works

Restylane® is a dermal filler designed to add volume, smooth out wrinkles, plump up lips, and restore fullness to facial features. This treatment works by utilizing hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin that provides hydration and elasticity. HA fills in wrinkles and folds when injected attracting additional water to maintain volume. The result is plumper, smoother skin with volumized, sunken facial features. The procedure involves injecting Restylane® into the skin with an ultrafine needle, typically under local anesthesia. Commonly treated areas include the lips, cheeks, facial folds, wrinkles, and under-eye regions. While immediate it can take about a week for the HA to fully integrate into the skin.

Benefits of a Restylane® Treatment

Restylane® is an FDA-approved collection of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers for the face, neck, and hands. HA attracts water molecules, restoring fullness and reducing deep wrinkles. Backed by clinical studies and years of safe use, Restylane® is ideal for facial rejuvenation, lip augmentation, cheek enhancement, and hand rejuvenation.

Key benefits include:

  • Low risk of side effects: Made from naturally occurring HA, Restylane® has a low complication risk.
  • Natural-looking results: It doesn’t freeze facial expressions, providing a more natural look.
  • No downtime: Most patients can resume their routine immediately.
  • Non-surgical: Quick and easy treatments without surgery.

Restylane® products are developed with NASHA® and XpresHAn Technology™, which allow for flexibility and support, adapting to the natural movement and expression of the face. With over 20 clinical studies supporting its efficacy and safety, Restylane® is a trusted choice for facial and hand rejuvenation.

Can Restylane® be Paired with Other Treatments?

Combining Restylane® with other treatments can significantly boost skin volume and rejuvenation results. For example, pairing Restylane® with BOTOX reduces dynamic wrinkles, while incorporating MOXI Laser treatments enhances texture and diminishes pigmentation. A HydraFacial followed by medical-grade skincare helps maintain and amplify the effects. The BBL HERO treatment addresses issues like redness, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne, and vascular lesions, leaving your skin radiant. We offer personalized treatment plans to combine Restylane® synergistically with other cosmetic procedures to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Before, During, and After

What To Expect Before a Restylane® Treatment

Before your Restylane® treatment, we’ll create a personalized plan to meet your goals and enhance your natural features. We’ll go over the various options in the Restylane® product line and suggest a tailored solution based on our expertise in achieving Outstanding aesthetic results. This approach ensures we meet your goals and enhance your natural beauty effectively.

What To Expect During a Restylane® Treatment

Before your Restylane® procedure begins, we’ll remove makeup and thoroughly cleanse the treatment area. Then, using a fine needle, we’ll carefully inject Restylane® hyaluronic acid gel into the specific areas to achieve your desired aesthetic results.

What To Expect After a Restylane® Treatment

After your Restylane® treatment, avoid touching or massaging the treated area for a few hours to ensure the filler settles properly. You might notice slight redness, mild swelling, or bruising, but these side effects typically fade within a few days. You’ll begin to see results almost immediately; the results can last anywhere from 9 months to two years, depending on the specific product used and the area treated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Restylane is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid (HA). It is specifically formulated to act like your body’s own hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid helps make the skin appear hydrated, healthy, and supple. As we age, hyaluronic acid production in the body diminishes. The easiest way to replenish HA is with fillers like Restylane. Restylane adds volume and fullness to the skin. It is injected into the skin to smooth away deeper lines and wrinkles.

The most common areas treated are the laugh lines around your mouth. It can also be used to plump up the cheeks, fill in the jowls and the lower jaw area around the mouth (smile lines).

At Coachlight we usually schedule about an hour for an injectable filler treatment. This allows us to spend time understanding what wrinkles or folds bother you and discuss our many options to meet your expectations. The treatment sites are marked as a guide, and then injections of Restylane are precisely delivered. Since Restylane fillers contain a local anesthetic called lidocaine, which numbs the treatment region, the injections are not painful or uncomfortable. Oftentimes, our patients combine this treatment with Botox Cosmetic to provide additional wrinkle reduction benefits in the forehead, frown line and crows feet areas.

There is little to no downtime or recovery time with an injectable filler like Restylane. Typically, you should start to see results almost immediately, and results can last anywhere from 9 months to over a year. As an FDA-approved treatment, Restylane is quite safe for long-term use. Once results fade, patients can return for maintenance treatments to extend their results. As with any injectable dermal filler, you may experience minor side effects, like pain, swelling, bruising, or redness at the injection site. These side effects are nothing to worry about and usually subside in a couple days.

The cost of this treatment depends on the amount of product used, how many injections you receive, whether you combine Restylane Lyft with another treatment, and other various factors. Be sure to ask about the price of this treatment during your consultation with one of our certified injectors.

The effects of Restylane® can last anywhere from 9 to 24 months, depending on the treated area and the type of filler used.

Common mild side effects of Restylane® filler include swelling, pain, soreness, bruising, and itching at the injection site. No downtime is required, and you can resume your regular activities immediately after the procedure.

To ensure the best results for your Restylane® treatment, it’s important to take some precautions in the days leading up to your appointment. Specifically, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements such as Aspirin, Tylenol, Vitamin E, ginseng, and garlic for 3 to 5 days before your session. Also, refrain from using retinol and anti-aging creams for two days before your treatment.

Restylane® fillers in West Des Moines and Ankeny stand out from other options due to their unique advantages. With over 20 years of experience, Restylane® has built a solid reputation for delivering high-quality dermal fillers that achieve natural-looking results.

Additionally, Restylane® fillers effectively address various cosmetic issues, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss in the cheeks.
