How long do the effects of the treatment last?
Results vary from patient to patient. With a repeated treatment plan, results may be long-lasting. Results may vary depending on the treatment area and individual patient.
What is a top-up treatment?
A top-up treatment is one or more additional treatment after your initial session to help maintain your results. Talk to your healthcare professional to see if a top-up treatment is right for you, and when and how much Restylane may be needed.
What should I apply or avoid after the treatment?
• Avoid applying make-up to the skin immediately after treatment.
• Light cover up may be used to conceal any remaining redness after approximately 24 hours.
• A yellow-toned concealer may be used to hide signs of bruising.
• In order to cover up any redness, a concealer with a slight green/yellow tone is recommended.
What are the possible side effects?
The most common side effects include treatment site reactions such as swelling, bruising, redness, pain and tenderness. These side effects generally disappear within one week after injection. Other potential side effects can occur with dermal filler injections. You should discuss the potential treatment risks with your healthcare practitioner. View Important Safety Information.
