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.

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.

Restylane FAQs

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.
