As we age, our skin becomes exposed to years of environmental factors, and elements. This exposure to wind, rain, harmful UV rays, and airborne pollution can slowly degrade the skin over time, and as it degrades, patients will slowly develop blemishes and facial abrasions. In addition to these factors, the process of aging itself, depletes the skin of vital skincare compounds known as collagen and elastin – responsible for the skin’s soft, supple look and feel, as well as its tight, taught texture. Without these important compounds, the skin is essentially defenseless to outside harm, and wrinkles, fine lines, bumps, and discolorations will often develop. While it might seem commonplace, that as you age, your skin will simply lose its youthful luster, and experience facial volume loss. But this is not something you have to live with. At Rego Park medical spa, Aesthetic Solutions, the skincare experts use a number of different methods to combat this facial volume loss, and series of blemishes. Of all the techniques they offer, the most widely requested treatment is the use of dermal fillers, and most prominently the Juvéderm or Restylane injection. Like Juvéderm, the Restylane injection is a clear gel, hyaluronic acid-based gel formulation, designed to temporarily sooth wrinkles, fine lines, and add volume to the face and lips. Hyaluronic acid is a protective substance, that is found naturally within the body – providing the skin with added volume. While Restylane can be used all along the body, the aesthetic experts behind the product have designed 5 specific variations on this popular dermal filler – each specializing in a certain aspect of treatment and area of correction.This is the most versatile dermal fillers around used for everything from tear trough injections to lips and mouth lines. To better educate their patients and understand which variety of Restylane is right for them, Rego Park medical spa, Aesthetic Solutions offers important information on each type.
Restylane
The conventional Restylane is the most versatile, hyaluronic acid based dermal filler around. It is used to add volume and fullness to the skin, allowing patients to correct moderate to severe wrinkles, fine liens and facial folds all over the face. From tear trough injections, nasolabial folds (around the mouth), to the cheeks, and lips.
Restylane Silk
At Rego Park medical spa, Aesthetic Solutions, Restylane Silk is one of the most popular dermal fillers they offer. This is the first FDA-approved treatment specifically designed for lip augmentation, and the treatment of smile lines (lines around the mouth). The gel used in Restylane Silk is smaller, and far smoother than that of the conventional Restylane injection. The ultra-fine, Silk needle is far thinner, and more accurate than any other needle. This provides patients with a softer, more subtle, precise results – making it the perfect filler for the lips.
Restylane Lyft
This is a unique dermal filler, as it is FDA-approved for correction volume loss in the back of the hands, as well as the cheeks, midface contours, tear trough injections, moderate to severe nasolabial folds, and much more. The only dermal filler around that specializes in the treatment of the hands as well as the face. Lyft also contains 0.3% lidocaine to reduce discomfort of the injection.
Restylane Defyne
This specialized Restylane injection uses hyaluronic acid to smooth out the deepest of lines around the mouth, and face – marionette lines & nasolabial folds, while allowing patients to keep their natural expressions and smile. One of the strongest of all the Restylane family.
Restylane Refyne
Similar toDefyne but used for light to moderate facial lines and folds along the mouth and face – marionette lines & nasolabial folds. Gives the skin an added dimension of flexibility.
