Smile Lines

hylaronic acid fillers (restylane lyft & restylane defyne) are ideal for deeper folds and restoring and reshaping areas of the face where there is significant volume loss, practically erasing prominent laugh lines, marionette lines, or “parentheses” for a year or longer.

RESTYLANE LYFT® VS. RESTYLANE®

What makes Restylane Lyft® different from Restylane® is the average size of the particles and the depth of injection. On average, the gel particles in Restylane Lyft® are larger than those in Restylane®, which makes Restylane Lyft® a good choice for smoothing out more severe wrinkles from deeper within the skin.

HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS FROM INJECTIONS?

You will see an improvement in the severity of your wrinkles immediately after treatment. Some temporary swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness is possible at first, so it may be a few days before you see the final results. These effects are usually mild and shouldn’t prevent you from returning to your daily activities.

WHAT DO INJECTIONS FEEL LIKE?

Most patients describe a pinching feeling with injection. We can give you a topical anesthetic and nitrous oxide to ease any discomfort.
