What is Restylane Vital?
Restylane is an injectable form of hyaluronic acid specially formulated for skin hydration.
Hyaluronic Acid is naturally found in the connective tissue of our skin and along with collagen forms the building blocks of healthy tissues. By replenishing nature’s supply of hyaluronic acid, Restylane revitalizes and plumps up the skin, provides deep dermal hydration, moisturising from within to improve skin tone and health. It diminishes the fine crêpey lines caused by sun damage and the natural aging process and smooths the skin to give a plump and hydrated look.
Why Restylane?
Restylane is safe: robust clinical evidence spanning over 10 years.
Restylane is natural: Restylane’s hyaluronic acid is unique because it resembles closely the skin’s own hyaluronic acid in the skin. This reduces the risks of inflammatory reactions. Restylane does not affect facial expression or facial movement.
Restylane is long lasting but not permanent: Restylane gives you flexibility and control over your looks. Because your face changes shape as you age, you want to avoid a permanent look you might regret in years to come.
Restylane is non-animal: In contrast to some other hyaluronic acid-based products, the hyaluronic acid in Restylane is not extracted from animals. This means there is no risk of transmitting disease or eliciting allergic reactions if you are sensitive to common foods, such as chicken and eggs.
How does the treatment work?
Restylane is injected directly into the skin in small amounts by an ultrafine needle. The gel produces volume under the skin, which is lifted up and smoothed out.
Does the treatment hurt?
Some people may experience the treatment as a mild discomfort. A local anaesthetic cream is often used.
Is it safe?
Restylane is the most popular facial filler in the world today and more than 10 million treatments have been carried out since the launch in 1996.
