Restylane® is a breakthrough dermal filler that stands out from the rest. This unique cosmetic treatment uses hyaluronic acid to hydrate the skin and fill in lines and wrinkles. Emmett Plastic Surgery, led by Dr. Jennifer Emmett, board-certified by the American Board of Surgery, has helped Denver, Lone Tree, and Douglas County residents safely and comfortably enhance their appearance and give them younger-looking skin with Restylane®.
What is Restylane®?
Restylane® is one of the most popular dermal fillers on the market that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Restylane®, however, is unique due to its formulation of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body. Restylane® replenishes your skin with HA, which absorbs moisture and helps plump your skin, filling out lines and folds. By hydrating the deep layers of your skin, Restylane® ultimately helps prevent wrinkles from forming.
Benefits of Restylane®
Restylane® not only erases your lines and wrinkles, but it also helps stop future wrinkles from forming. Other benefits of Restylane® include:
- Safe and effective procedure that takes less than an hour
- Produces softer and younger looking skin
- Hydrates the skin, improving the appearance of lines and wrinkles
- Results that last up to 12 months
- Non-invasive treatment with no downtime
Is Restylane® Right for Me?
Most anyone who would like to reduce wrinkles, lines, and folds, such as crow’s feet, laugh lines, and smoker’s lines, is a good candidate for Restylane®. Because it is made of natural ingredients, there is less of a chance for allergic reactions.
What Happens During a Restylane® Treatment?
Restylane® is a quick and easy procedure. Prior to injection, Dr. Emmett will apply a numbing agent on the area being treated to eliminate any discomfort. Using a very fine-gauge needle, Dr. Emmett will inject Restylane® into your skin near folds and creases. When possible, Dr. Emmett uses an intraoral injection technique where she goes through the mouth to reach targeted areas. The entire procedure takes between 30 minutes to an hour.
What Can I Expect Following a Restylane® Injection?
After treatment, you are able to return to work and your normal activities with no downtime needed. You may experience minor bruising that should disappear quickly. You can expect to see results immediately following treatment, along with continued improvement as time goes on. Results can last up to a year.
How Much Does Restylane® Cost?
Restylane® is generally considered an elective cosmetic treatment so many insurances will not cover the cost. Dr. Emmett offers financing through CareCredit®, Simmons Bank, and Prosper® Healthcare Lending. We also accept cash, personal checks, and credit cards.
