ANSWERS
How do Restylane & Perlane work?

Restylane and Perlane are hyaluronic acid gels that are injected into the skin in order to lift up wrinkles and add volume to the lips.

What is hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that is found throughout the body. It gives, for example, volume to the skin, lubricates the joints and gives the eye its shape.

How were Restylane & Perlane developed?

In 1994, after more than twenty years of research, a Swedish company, managed to develop a way of using a non-animal hyaluronic acid to replace lost skin tissue. Before this, collagen made from cow skin and hyaluronic acid made from roosters combs had been used.

What results can be obtained from lip enhancement?

The vermillion border (edge around the lip) can be accentuated and the lips can be given more volume and "voluptuousness".
 
 
What kinds of wrinkles can be treated?

Common areas are the glabellar lines (between the eyebrows), the nasolabial folds (form the wing of the nose to the angle of the mouth) and the wrinkles around the lips, but other sites can also be treated.
 
What is the treatment like?

Treatment with Restylane or Perlane is a very easy and quick process. Since no pre-test is needed, the treatment can be carried out immediately and takes about 30 minutes. The results are instantaneous!

Is it painful?

This is very individual, depending on how sensitive to pain you are. The injections may prick a little but normally no anaesthesia is needed for the treatment of wrinkles. Lip treatment requires a little local anaesthetic, and full recovery is approximately one hour.

When will I see results?

You will see results immediately, although, the optimum time is within one week.

How often do I need to have this done?

Usually, the product stays in the skin six to eight months initially. Often, after each successive treatment, the product will remain for greater than one year.

Can everyone use these products?

Not everyone is a good candidate. It's best to get a consultation to discuss the success of Restylane and Perlane.
