After years of sun exposure, weight fluctuations, and the inescapable aging process, facial skin can become lax and sunken. This loss of tissue elasticity and the associated fine lines/wrinkles can quickly add unnecessary years to the appearance. While not even the most expensive lotions, creams, or serums will be able to turn back the hands of time, patients can find hope at the cosmetic surgeon’s office.
Restylane-Lyft is an innovative new dermal filler, recently approved by the FDA to treat deep facial lines and creases, as well as to improve a depletion of facial volume. Composed of large molecule Hyaluronic Acid, Restylane-Lyft provides a super-volumizing effect when injected below the surface of the skin. Further, Restylane-Lyft will increase the body’s own production of Collagen, providing a steady improvement of the appearance. Most commonly used to treat Nasolabial Folds and lines around the mouth, Restylane-Lyft also has the ability to correct the appearance of facial scars. *
The Ideal Candidate:
Restylane-Lyft is safe enough to treat any skin type and ethnicity. Both men and women can experience excellent, rejuvenating results with the facial filler. It is perfect for those people looking for immediate results, without the risks or long recovery from an invasive procedure. Restylane-Lyft’s large molecules make it excellent for patients with deep facial creases or significant facial volume depletion. As with any cosmetic procedure, patients should be in generally good health and have realistic expectations for the treatment. *
Restylane-Lyft Injections:
A treatment with Restylane-Lyft will take less than an hour in the office. Using a small needle, Restylane-Lyft is injected just below the surface of the skin, into predetermined areas. While the injections are not considered painful, a local anesthetic or dental block may be used to maximize patient comfort.
Restylane-Lyft hold virtually no risk of complication. When administered by a trained professional, Restylane-Lyft provides patients with safe and reliable results. Restylane-Lyft, as well as all other injectables, may temporarily cause mild swelling, redness, and bruising at the injection site. These will resolve over the following several days. Patients are free to return to work or school immediately; however, some people prefer to wait until the following day, to allow any these side effects to resolve.
The full benefits of Restylane-Lyft can be appreciated immediately. Over the next several months, as the Hyaluronic Acid triggers the body’s own Collagen production, the smooth appearance of the skin will continue to improve. The results of Restylane-Lyft are long-lasting; patients do not have to return for a repeat treatment for a year or longer.
