Perlane, also like Restylane™, is a long-lasting gel that, once injected into the skin with an ultra-fine needle, lifts, adds volume and helps diminsh fine lines and wrinkles. Made from a natural substance called hyaluronic acid, it is a safe treatment. The hyaluronic acid in Perlane simply supplements the body's age-depleted hyaluronic acid to plump-up the lip or to raise the skin and 'fill in' the specific wrinkle being treated.

Perlane treatments last between six and nine months, although different individuals will have varied results. Perlaneis an excellent treatment for wrinkle correction, lip enhancement, filling smile lines and deep folds. Schedule a free consultation today for an estimated cost of Perlane treatments.

Common Questions About Restylane™

What is Restylane™?

Restylane™ is a transparent hyaluronic acid gel that is injected into facial tissue to smooth wrinkles and folds, especially around the nose and mouth (nasolabial folds). Restylane™ is made of non-animal-based hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that is produced naturally by the human body.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is found throughout your body. It gives volume to the skin, lubricates the joints and gives the eyes their shape. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane™ is stabilized for long duration and is not of animal or human origin.

How does it work?

Restylane™ works by temporarily adding volume to facial tissue. The effect lasts for about 6 months. Restylane™ maintains its shape using the body's own moisture. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane™ is hydrophilic or "water loving." As hyaluronic acid gradually degrades, each molecule binds to more water and over time, the same volume can be maintained with less hyaluronic acid. This ability of hyaluronic acid to bind to water is what helps provide long-lasting results.

What areas can be treated?

Restylane™ can be used to smooth folds and wrinkles, enhance lips and shape facial contours. The most common areas are the glabellar lines (between the eyebrows), the nasolabial folds (from the bottom of the nose to the corner of the mouth) and the lips, although other sites can also be treated.

How is treatment performed?

During treatment, crystal-clear Restylane™ gel is injected into the skin in tiny amounts with a very fine needle. The gel produces volume under the wrinkle, which is lifted and smoothed. When enhancing lips or facial contours, Restylane™ adds volume and shape to the treated area.

How long will my treatment take?

Treatment with Restylane™ is very quick and easy. As no pre-test is needed, the treatment can be carried out immediately. A treatment generally takes from 30 - 45 minutes, although the time varies, depending on the correction you wish to have performed.

What will it accomplish?

Restylane™ will help smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. In a clinical study most patients needed one injection to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing; about one-third of patients needed more than one injection to get a satisfactory result. The smoothing effect lasted about six months.

How soon before I see the results?

The results can be seen immediately.

Can Restylane™ be removed?

No. However, Restylane™ dissolves naturally with time. If you feel uncertain about the desired result, you can choose to have the treatment done in steps on different occasions.

How long will Restylane™ last?

Restylane™ dissolves naturally over time and is absorbed by your body over time. Your results will depend on several factors including; your skin's structure, your lifestyle, and your age. Experience indicates that touch-up and follow-up treatments will add to the duration. Most people choose to have a follow-up treatment within a year after the treatment of wrinkles and folds and within 6 months after a lip enhancement.

Does Restylane™ get stiffer in cold weather? What happens in the sun?

You should not expose the treated area to intense heat (e.g. in a solarium or by sunbathing) or extreme cold for the first few days after the treatment in order to avoid the risk of inflammation as the area has been disturbed. However, once Restylane™ has integrated into the body, it will adjust to your normal body temperature.

Are there any potential side effects?

Side effects may include: - bruising - redness - swelling - pain - tenderness - itching

When should it not be used?

Restylane™ should not be used in patients who have:
• Severe allergies marked by a history of anaphylaxis (hypersensitivity to the ingestion or injection of a drug or protein)
• Multiple severe allergies
• Severe allergies to gram-positive bacterial proteins
