Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin. Restylane is indicated for treatment of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. Every time you smile, frown or squint you put stress on the underlying collagen in the skin which results in the development of facial lines. Restylane is a cosmetic dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid,
a natural substance that already exists in the human body. Restylane maintains its shape using the body's own moisture. Restylane is free from animal proteins
Restylane is injected into your skin through a fine needle administered by a doctor or nurse. It is a relatively painless procedure that is also convenient and simple.
