Which Restylane Formula is Right for Me?
We Help You Choose the Best Dermal Filler Formula
In the world of dermal fillers, Restylane has emerged as a safe, natural, and trusted brand offering a range of innovative solutions for anti-aging, appearance improvement, and facial rejuvenation. Restylane is a popular choice for our Royal Oak patients who want to address common signs of aging, enhance facial contours, and achieve a more beautiful and youthful appearance.
Like Juvéderm, the Restylane family of dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid fillers. However, Restylane is not as well-known as its counterpart Juvéderm. In this article, the dermal filler experts at Prosperity Health in Royal Oak, MI explore the various formulas within the Restylane family, to help you determine which one may be right for you.
Restylane Dermal Filler Formulas
Restylane is a versatile dermal filler that can be used to treat multiple areas of the face. It is primarily composed of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that provides hydration and volume to the skin. Restylane works by replenishing lost volume and filling in wrinkles and folds, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
Restylane Silk: Enhance Lips & Smooth Fine Lines
Restylane Silk is specifically formulated to address the delicate areas around the mouth, including the lips and the lines around them. This formula provides subtle and natural-looking lip enhancement, adding volume and definition while minimizing the appearance of fine lines. Restylane Silk is an excellent choice for those seeking a more youthful pout and smoother, softer lips.
Restylane Lyft: Restore Volume & Contour Cheeks
Restylane Lyft is designed to restore lost volume in the midface and enhance cheek contours. With its thicker consistency, Lyft offers significant lifting and filling capabilities, making it ideal for individuals seeking a more pronounced cheekbone structure and a lifted appearance. Restylane Lyft can help address sagging skin, hollowed cheeks, and other signs of volume loss, providing a more youthful and defined facial contour.
Restylane Refyne: Soften Moderate Laugh Lines & Marionette Lines
Restylane Refyne is formulated to soften the appearance of moderate to severe nasolabial folds and marionette lines, which are often referred to as laugh lines or puppet lines. This flexible gel formula allows for natural facial expressions while effectively reducing the depth of wrinkles and lines. Restylane Refyne is a popular choice for individuals looking to maintain a natural look while achieving smoother and more youthful facial contours.
Restylane Defyne: Smooth Deep Laugh Lines & Marionette Lines
Restylane Defyne is a slightly thicker gel formula compared to Refyne, making it suitable for deeper nasolabial folds and marionette lines. This advanced formula provides structural support to the skin, effectively minimizing the appearance of deep wrinkles while maintaining natural movement and facial expressions. Restylane Defyne is an ideal option for individuals seeking to smooth out pronounced laugh lines and marionette lines without sacrificing facial dynamics.
Restylane Contour: Chin & Jawline Filler
Restylane Contour is the latest addition to the Restylane family, specifically designed to enhance and define the chin and jawline. This formula is ideal for individuals seeking a more sculpted and contoured lower face. Restylane Contour can help address concerns such as weak chin, jowls, and lack of definition in the jawline. By adding volume and structure, Restylane Contour creates a harmonious balance and improved facial profile.
Restylane Kysse: Enhance Lips with a Natural Feel
Restylane Kysse is a specialized formula within the Restylane family that focuses on enhancing the lips for a natural and voluminous look. Whether you desire a subtle boost or more pronounced lip enhancement, Restylane Kysse offers a versatile solution.
With its innovative XpresHAn Technology™, Restylane Kysse provides a unique combination of flexibility and support, allowing for natural movement and expression while delivering noticeable results. This advanced formula is specifically designed to provide fullness, shape, and definition to the lips while maintaining a soft, natural feel.
Restylane Kysse is an excellent choice for individuals seeking to enhance lip volume, improve lip symmetry, or add youthful plumpness to thin or aging lips. It can also address vertical lip lines, commonly known as “smoker’s lines,” that can develop over time.
One of the key advantages of Restylane Kysse is its long-lasting effects. Patients can enjoy beautifully enhanced lips for up to one year before a touch-up treatment may be desired.
How Long Does Restylane Last?
Different formulas of Restylane dermal filler offer different degrees of longevity. Thinner formulations typically do not last quite as long as formulas with thicker, firmer consistencies. Additionally, dermal fillers placed in areas of the face that are prone to more frequent movements – such as the lips (chewing, talking, smiling) – do not last as long as fillers injected into more stationary locations, such as the forehead.
Restylane Silk Longevity
Results from Restylane Silk typically last around six to nine months. However, the duration can vary depending on individual factors such as metabolism, lifestyle, and the area treated.
Restylane Lyft Longevity
The effects of Restylane Lyft can last anywhere up to twelve months. This timeframe may also differ based on the treatment area, and the patients metabolism and personal habits.
Restylane Refyne & Defyne Longevity
Results achieved with Restylane Refyne and Defyne can also generally last up to twelve months. The longevity of the effects will vary depending on individual factors, including the area of the face that was treated and the patient’s natural bodily elimination processes. Thicker Defyne may last somewhat longer than Refyne.
Restylane Kysse Longevity
Restylane Kysse has been shown to offer results that can last up to a year. However, because the lips undergo a great deal of movement every day – eating, talking, making facial expressions – individual results will vary.
Restylane Contour Longevity
Restylane Contour – the newest addition to the Restylane family – has been shown in clinical trials to last for at least one year or more after treatment. Additionally, due to its thick consistency, patients who choose Restylane Contour also needed less injectable to achieve ideal aesthetic results compared to other products.
