Restylane injections for the restoration and treatment of lost facial volume

As we age, we lose volume and gain lines and wrinkles on our faces. The building blocks of the skin break down. Constant movement and overworking of the facial muscles adds to the formation of lines. Dermal fillers such as Restylane injections, are utilized to restore volume and youth. Located in Montclair, Dr. Jeanine Downie offers Restylane treatments to help patients look youthful yet natural.

Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane are commonly used to return fullness to the face. Found in the skin and joints, hyaluronic acid is a natural body sugar that adds moisture and volume to the skin. When used in a dermal filler, patients get natural, long lasting results.

Restylane treats natural volume loss caused by aging.

As an FDA approved injectable filler, Restylane is used to treat areas of the face that have naturally lost volume. As a thinner filler, this product adds subtle fullness producing natural-looking results. Treatment areas may include:

• Lips
• Corners of the mouth
• Tear Troughs
• Under the eyes
• Cheeks

For patients desiring a fuller pout, Restylane plumps the lips. As a soft, flexible product, it is smooth and fluid in the lips producing a natural result. The mouth loses volume early and can result in a sad resting face. Restylane can be used to turn up the corners of the mouth. As we age, we also lose fullness under the eyes and cheekbones creating dark circles, hollows, or a sunken appearance. Restylane helps patients regain volume lost during the aging process. Dr. Downie uses Restylane under her own eyes as the filler in her eyelid hollows.

Hyaluronic acid fillers are a good starting point for patients who are just entering the world of injectables. Treatments are performed in the office. The filler is injected under the skin instantly filling in the target area. Aside from providing patients with immediate results, Restylane is safe, effective, and long lasting. It typically lasts for six months or longer.
