What Is Restylane?

Restylane is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) filler designed to restore support beneath the skin. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body. It’s found in our joints, connective tissue, and skin. It works by attracting water, giving treated areas smoothness, volume, and hydration. Restylane was the first HA filler approved in the U.S. and remains one of the most versatile tools for treating visible signs of aging.

This filler is especially effective in treating volume loss and skin laxity by physically adding back structure under the dermis, not just filling surface lines.

What’s the Difference Between Restylane and Juvederm?

Both Restylane and Juvederm are made from hyaluronic acid, but they differ in how they’re formulated.

  • Restylane tends to be slightly firmer, making it useful in areas where definition and precision are important, like the lips or under the eyes.
  • Juvederm is typically smoother and may spread more easily in certain facial zones.

The choice between Restylane and Juvederm depends on the area being treated and your specific goals. We will recommend what’s best for your face, not just what’s popular.

How Long Does Restylane Last?

Most patients see results that last 6 to 12 months, depending on the area treated and how much product is used. Lip treatments may require more frequent follow-up, typically every 6 months, to maintain definition and shape.

How Is Restylane Priced?

The number of syringes needed determines Restylane cost and whether it’s being used on its own or as part of a larger treatment plan (like a BaseLift™).

You’ll receive a personalized quote during your consultation based on the area(s) being treated and the level of correction required.
