By now you may

more than 3 million treatments7 in over 70
countries and is now approved in the U.S. for
the treatment of facial wrinkles and folds. But
do you know the unique technology behind this
exciting treatment?
Restylane® is a
safe and natural cosmetic dermal filler that
restores volume and fullness to the skin to
correct facial wrinkles and folds, such as
nasolabial folds.
Restylane has a
highly favorable safety profile. It is composed
of non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid.
Hyaluronic acid is a substance found naturally
in the human body. Restylane is fully
biocompatible. There is limited risk of
animal-based disease transmission or development
of allergic reactions to animal proteins. No
allergy testing is required before use.*
Restylane
maintains its shape using the body's own
moisture. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane is
hydrophilic or "water loving." As hyaluronic
acid gradually degrades, each molecule binds to
more water and over time, the same volume can be
maintained with less hyaluronic acid. This
ability of hyaluronic acid to bind to water is
what helps provide long-lasting results.
Unlike
rooster-derived hyaluronic acids and bovine
collagen products, Restylane is free from animal
proteins. This limits any risk of animal-based
disease transmissions or development of allergic
reactions to animal proteins.* Restylane®
has earned international renown for its results
around the world. Now, with its introduction for
the U.S., Restylane is earning the same praise
from American consumers, physicians and the
national media.
