Restylane treatments in Brooklyn, NY

Restylane has been used in millions of treatments worldwide and is approved in the U.S. for use in the treatment of facial folds and wrinkles. Although wrinkles are a part of the aging process, they can be very frustrating. It’s hard to feel your best when all you see in the mirror are the wrinkles beneath your eyes, around the lips and nose, etc. Since there are no animal proteins in Restylane, patients do not need to undergo allergy testing and can begin their treatments immediately. Dr. Vitolo offers Restylane injection treatments for his patients in Brooklyn, NY to smoothen facial wrinkles.

What is Restylane?

Restylane is an injectable filler that can be used to reduce the appearance of facial lines. The ingredient that sets Restylane apart from other fillers is hyaluronic acid. This type of acid is a natural substance already present in the human body. It plays an important role in giving shape to the eyes, skin and lubrication to the joints.

It is used to treat crow’s feet, wrinkles below the eyes, wrinkles around the lips, and nasolabial folds (the creases that develop between the sides of the nose and the sides of the mouth). Restylane can also effectively fill age-related depressions in the face, such as those that may develop around the eyes. The treatment takes approximately 30 minutes, and the results can last up to six months.

Preparation

Prior to your Restylane treatment, there are a few precautions you should take. It is recommended you avoid taking aspirin, any anti-inflammatory medications, or high doses of Vitamin E.

Post Treatment

After the treatment, patients may experience some redness and tenderness, which will gradually subside overnight. Patients can wear makeup in an hour or two following the procedure. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Vitolo to determine if Restylane is the ideal option for you!
