How Long Does Restylane Contour® Last?įollowing your treatment, you may experience some redness, swelling, or itching at the injection site for up to 24 hours. Typical treatments take less than an hour to perform. After we’ve administered all of your injections, we will then gently massage the treated area to ensure that the dermal filler gel is evenly distributed, giving you a natural-looking appearance. We will then administer a numbing cream or ointment before proceeding with the injections. When you arrive at Coastal Dermatology + Aesthetics, our team will begin by cleansing your skin. What is The Restylane Contour® Treatment Process Like? JUVÉDERM, on the other hand, is better suited for addressing wrinkles and fine lines in tight facial areas. Since this filler is thicker, it stays in place more effectively. This makes Restylane more suited for adding volume to specific facial areas. Restylane is granular and more cohesive than JUVÉDERM® while JUVÉDERM® is smoother. While both fillers feature HA as their primary ingredient, their texture makes them more suitable for different treatments areas. At the time of the appointment, the filler is simply injected into target areas. Restylane Contour® is crosslinked with BDDE, an ingredient that helps form a network of HA, to provide a gel filler that lasts longer at the treatment site. Along with HA, this injectable also features a small amount of lidocaine, which is a commonly used local anesthetic to numb the skin. This naturally occurring substance is found in the body and provides our skin moisture, volume, and elasticity. Like the JUVÉDERM® family of fillers, Restylane Contour® is made out of hyaluronic acid (HA). REQUEST APPOINTMENT How Does Restylane Contour® Work?
