What is Restylane?

As people get older, especially after 40, their facial skin loses elasticity and smoothness. This can lead to several changes, including:

  • Development of wrinkles and smile lines
  • Thinning of the skin
  • Formation of acne scars
  • Greater sensitivity to UV rays.
  • Skin becoming rough and dehydrated

There are many different reasons for this:

  • The elastin fibers in the skin don’t connect correctly.
  • The amount of hyaluronic acid in the skin has reduced by about 50%.
  • There is a decrease in collagen types I and III.

To prevent skin aging, various injectable treatments have been developed. One popular option is Restylane. 

Restylane is a popular option that uses specially formulated hyaluronic acid with a lower molecular weight for stability. It helps increase the thickness of facial skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines.

Restylane is made from non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid, which attracts water when injected into the skin. This helps boost hydration levels and enhances the skin’s natural appearance over time.
