Restylane®
What is Restylane®?
Restylane® is the smart and easy way to add volume and smoothness to your skin. Restylane® is based on a hyaluronic acid gel that closely resembles the body's own hyaluronic acid. It is long lasting, but not permanent. Restylane® is made in Sweden, a nation known for health, nature and beauty. Since 1996, millions of treatments have been successfully performed in more than 70 countries worldwide. Restylane® enhances your natural looks by restoring your skin’s volume, creating softness and revitalizing your appearance. Millions of people have used Restylane® with confidence, it is the world’s most widely used product based on hyaluronic acid for esthetic enhancement.
How It Works
Youthful skin is rich in hyaluronic acid. As we age, the distribution and function of hyaluronic acid in our skin gradually change, leading to the characteristic signs of aging. Restylane® gels work by enhancing your skin’s own stocks of hyaluronic acid, directly adding volume to either soften the signs of aging or enhance your features. The procedure is quick, it usually takes less than 30 minutes and the benefits can be seen immediately.
Restylane® safety and efficacy is proven beyond a doubt, with robust clinical data spanning a decade. Adverse reactions to Restylane® are rare. The uniquely produced hyaluronic acid gel of Restylane® closely resembles natural hyaluronic acid. This reduces the risk of an inflammatory reaction or other side effects. 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. 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.
Restylane® treatment fits in well with busy lifestyles, with minimal downtime, and gives results that can be seen instantly.
How is Restylane® Produced?
Restylane® is produced by Q-Med AB in Sweden under strict laboratory conditions to obtain a high degree of product purity. Q-Med is a rapidly growing iotechnology/medical device company. Q-Med develops, produces, markets and sells implants for esthetic and medical use. All products are based on the company’s patented NASHA™ technology.
If you injected hyaluronic acid in its natural form into the body, it would break down in just a few days, and any treatment benefit would be very short-lived. The unique stabilization process patented by Q-Med and used in the manufacture of Restylane® results in a hyaluronic acid gel that closely resembles the body’s own hyaluronic acid. This provides long-lasting treatment benefits and minimizes the risk of a skin reaction.
