Dermal Fillers > Restylane-L®
and Perlane-L® |
|
Restylane is a natural cosmetic
dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid,
which is a natural substance that exists
in the human body and is used to provide
volume and fullness to the skin.
Restylane is the answer to long lasting
wrinkle correction, with average results
lasting six months or longer.
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid. It's a
unique form of non-animal stabilized
natural polysaccharide which occurs as
an important structural element in the
skin and in subcutaneous and connective
tissue. It belongs to a group of a very
few substances, which are identical in
all living organisms. Restylane and
Perlane add volume to the tissue,
thereby restoring the skin contour or
enhance the lips to the desired level of
correction. It is natural and soft.
Restylane-L®
and Perlane-L®
can also be used in other moderate to
severe facial wrinkles such as lipstick
lines - the area just below the nose and
above the upper lip; the corners of the
mouth; and marionette lines - the area
that extends downward from the corners
of the mouth to the jawline.
