Restylane Nashville

What is Restylane?

Restylane is a brand of dermal fillers designed to restore volume and enhance facial features, effectively combating the signs of aging. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin, Restylane helps to smooth wrinkles, plump lips, and add fullness to cheeks and other facial areas. Trusted for its safety and effectiveness, Restylane offers a variety of products tailored to meet individual aesthetic needs, making it a popular choice for those seeking to rejuvenate their appearance. Jack & Jill Aesthetics in Nashville offers Restylane injections in the Nashville & Franklin, TN area to help you achieve youthful and natural-looking results.

What happens during the aging process?

You might not think of fat and tissue volume as a benefit. After all, most of us would be happy to see the fat in our midsections diminish. However, when it comes to skin, the layer of fatty tissue below the epidermis is something we would rather keep. It provides the full lips, apple cheeks, and smooth facial contours that we associate with youth. Over time, the fatty layer below the skin becomes thinner, just as the body is producing less collagen and skin is becoming drier.

The combination of these and other facets leads to significant volume loss in the face, often as much as a teaspoon every year. The visible effects may include hollow cheeks, thin lips, sagging skin, wrinkles, and general loss of youthful shape. Volume loss also impacts other areas of the body, such as the backs of hands.

How does Restylane work to help reverse the signs of aging?

The first facial fillers, developed decades ago, used collagen. Although the results were promising, allergic reactions and other factors made those early formulas less than ideal. Thankfully, extensive clinical research and developments in aesthetic medicine have led to a much larger variety of safe and effective formulas.

In modern fillers, the most popular ingredient is HA (hyaluronic acid). It is actually a type of sugar acid, and it is naturally present in skin. It has the ability to bind with moisture, helping skin stay plump and hydrated. Restlyane’s line of fillers are formulated with cross linked HA, which is designed to function just like natural HA. It was one of the first HA fillers on the market, and it continues to be one of the most requested brand names.

What are the different formulations of Restylane?

Fillers are an innovative and minimally invasive way to replace that lost volume, and even enhance your natural facial contours. Restylane is one of the most familiar names in filler treatment, having earned FDA approval for more than 15 years ago. Today, this line of dermal fillers has grown to include several wonderful products, all of which are FDA approved.

Restylane

The original and still one of the most popular, Restylane may be used to augment lips, smooth out wrinkles around the mouth, fill in facial folds, and more.

Restylane Silk

As the name implies, this formula is unique in its silky-smooth texture, which allows precise and subtle volumization with natural looking results. It was formulated for smoothing lines around the mouth and enhancing lips.

Restylane Refyne

Laugh lines are no laughing matter, and the makers of Restylane understand that fact. The Refyne formula is made with a trademarked technology called XpresHAn, which softens mild to moderate marionette lines and nasolabial folds, while still allowing normal facial movement and a natural-looking result.

Restylane Defyne

Also created with XpresHAn technology, this formula is much like Refyne but has a thicker texture. It is appropriate for moderate to severe laugh lines.

Restylane Lyft

A substantial yet supple formula that can add natural-looking volume in deep injections, Restylane Lyft was initially developed for the cheeks and midface. However, it is also an excellent solution for hand rejuvenation, restoring plumpness, smoothing away wrinkles, and correcting a bony appearance. This formula recently earned FDA approval for use in the backs of the hands, giving it the distinction of being the first HA filler to earn approval for treating age related volume loss in an area other than the face.

Am I a good candidate for Restylane in Nashville?

Each Restylane formula has individual FDA indications for treatment areas and approved patient ages. Generally, Restylane and other fillers are safe for most adults.

However, you will need to be evaluated by a qualified clinician to verify candidacy. Restylane in Nashville & Franklin, TN at Jack & Jill Aesthetics may be a good choice if your cosmetic concerns include any of the following:

Age-related volume loss in the backs of the hands, lips, face, or other areas
Naturally thin lips or facial contours
Asymmetry or a less than ideal shape of facial features, such as lips and nose
Depressed acne scars
Other areas where tissue needs a bit more fullness and volume

Very well trained Physician Assistant. I came in for injections and this clinic left me very impressed. They sell only the highest quality medical grade products, which is great for my skin. I will absolutely return here. 5 stars!

What can I expect during and after the Restylane procedure?

Consultation

First there will be a consultation during which we will discuss your treatment goals and expectations, medical history, scheduling concerns, and preferences. Your clinician will work with you to develop a one-of-a-kind treatment plan to address your unique needs. If volume loss is your only concern, then fillers will likely be the only recommendation. If your goals include smoothing out crow’s feet, tightening lax skin, or correcting other issues, we will recommend a multifaceted treatment plan.

Procedure

Restylane injections take just minutes, and your visit may be over in about half an hour if that is the only procedure being performed. Because the needle is small, and our techniques are gentle, there is typically minimal discomfort during treatment. You may be provided with an ice pack after injections in order to minimize swelling.

Side effects

Common side effects of Restylane are usually mild, and short-lived. You might see some bruising, swelling, or redness, as well as feeling some soreness in the treatment areas. These effects should subside within a few days or weeks. If visible, they can be covered with make-up.
