Overview

To plump thin lips and restore a youthful appearance, Restylane SILK is a favorite of South Denver plastic surgeon, Dr. Manish Shah, due to its ability to subtly augment lips as well as smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. This gel dermal filler, which has been approved by the FDA, is made of hyaluronic acid, which is found naturally in the skin. Due to the natural aging process, over time, lips can thin out, lose their natural shape as well as develop fine lines which Restylane SILK can repair. Compared to comparable fillers, Restylane SILK is made up of smaller and smoother particles which produce a more natural look and feel. The effects usually last for about 8-12 months after treatment.

What Are the Benefits of Restylane?

Dull, lifeless skin is a common side effect of aging, but that doesn't mean you can't do something about it. With Restylane dermal filler injections at Shah Aesthetic Surgery, you can restore lost volume and enjoy a more youthful, refreshed look. Some of the benefits of Restylane injections at our Denver, CO office include:

  • Includes natural components, such as HA
  • Creates a more filled out and refreshed skin texture
  • Suitable for a number of areas, like the decolletage, hands, and face
  • Improves confidence and self-assurance

Administering Restylane

A Restylane treatment is quick and involves precise injection where volume is needed. The practitioner will clean the face thoroughly and then mark the injection areas with ink. A fine needle delivers the solution into the skin gradually to reshape and gain youthful contours. The procedure is pain-free with just slight discomfort of the injection prick that can be helped with a numbing cream that is applied prior to treatment. The quantity that is injected depends on how much volume the injection site needs. If the cheek appears to sag, it is filled in until it creates a lifted appearance that is reminiscent of youth. The duration of treatment may last up to 30 minutes.

I had a long philtrum (15mm) and I wanted more lift of my upper lip which lip fillers were not able to achieved. I opted into going though with a lip lift from Dr. Shah in Denver and so far I am very happy with my result!

I went to him for a lip lift consultation and immediately felt at ease upon meeting him.He took time to thoroughly answer my questions, and I could tell he had a very comprehensive knowledge of the facial anatomy.The surgery was done under local anesthesia and him and Tatiana made me feel so comfortable even though I was awake the entire time.I don’t have a visible scar and even though the surgery was very minor, it has made the biggest difference in my confidence. Suffice to say, I am very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Dr. Shah and his team.

I have been looking into a non-surgical nose job for over five years now, and I can firmly assure you that Dr. Shah is the doctor to go to. He is so kind, well-informed, and answered all of my questions thoroughly and made me feel super confident going into the procedure. He is one of the top rhinoplasty surgeons in Colorado and his results prove it! The process took less than 15 minutes and was virtually pain-free minus a few light, pinches. Immediately after, my mind was completely blown with how great my results were. Minus some light swelling and bruising, my nose was completely flat, hump-free, and my profile was straight and balanced. It is everything I could ask for and more and I could not be more thankful for Dr. Shah. On top of all of this, the procedure was EXTREMELY affordable. I do not believe any other aesthetic surgery center in Colorado can beat these prices while receiving the same high, quality that is ensured with Dr. Shah's practice. I had no idea that achieving these results could be so affordable, and I am so thankful I came across this center. There was also a discount for first time injectors which brought my overall price down even more. I am so happy with my results, how kind both Dr. Shah and his staff were, and I plan on returning every 8-12 months for touch-ups. Thank you so very much!

Dr. Shah is great. I'm in my 50's and he has removed years of aging and sun damage from my face without surgery and without making me look like I've had anything "done". The most interesting thing so far has been the diamond polar treatments to tighten up the skin along my jawline. I recently did the Perfect Peel which was the best chemical peel I've had and I've had a few. I also like the fact that he does all the botox and filler injections himself instead of some offices where they have an ae

What to Expect

The results following a Restylane treatment are immediate. There may be swelling and redness around the treated areas, which will subside after several hours. Patients may resume work immediately but must avoid strenuous activities for about 24 hours. They are also advised not to put any pressure on the face and keep the head elevated so that the filler settles well to achieve the intended contours. Results may last up to one full year. This procedure is safe to repeat to maintain the desired results. For most patients, this is about every 6 months.

Alternative Fillers

There are many filler options to consider today. In addition to other hyaluronic acid based fillers, there are also some that contain calcium-based gels, collagen, and polylactic acid. A fat transfer using the patient’s own fat is also popular. The ideal filler must have a function that best matches the patient’s condition. During the consultation, each filler will be discussed and chosen based on the area being treated and patient’s cosmetic goal.

About Us
Best Function?

Restylane is commonly used for lip augmentation. The results are natural looking with a soft feel that patients love. FDA requires the patient to be at least 21 years old to receive the treatment.

Which Facial Areas?

This treatment is best used to fill in severe facial creases around the nose and the mouth. It is an effective volumizer for sagging nasolabial folds and marionette lines, or even to decrease jowls. 

Fillers or Traditional Lift?

Both correct different cosmetic issues. Surgical lifts are a better option for those whose skin has a significant loss of elasticity. Derma fillers are ideal treatments for those who still have a healthy skin tone, but are beginning to show facial aging symptoms such as fine lines, wrinkles and hollow areas. During the initial consultation, the doctor will discuss in detail all of the options available and the best approach to achieve the patient’s aesthetic goals.
