Restylane & Restylane Silk
Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic facial filler approved by FDA that restores volume and fullness to the skin. It is used to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds including deep and superficial nasolabial folds. Restylane is the first and only cosmetic dermal filler made of non-animal based hyaluronic acid. There is virtually no risk of animal-based disease transmission or allergic reaction and lasts 3 to 6 months.
Restylane Silk: For a silky, smooth natural-looking smile, now there’s Restylane Silk designed specifically for lips and the lines around them. For patients over 21 years of age, this injectable subtly enhances the lips and smoothing wrinkles and lines around the mouth.
Just like Restylane, Restylane Silk is a clear gel formulation hyaluronic acid – a sugar that is naturally present in your skin. Restylane Silk provides natural-looking results in the lip area.

About the Procedure
All filler treatment procedures start with either a topical anesthetic, an injection of anesthetic, or an anesthetic block to lessen or eliminate discomfort. Once the desired area is numb, Dr. Abramson will inject the filler under the skin. Multiple injections distribute the dermal filler evenly through the area. The entire procedure takes less than an hour.
Recovery
The treatments require little or no anesthesia. Dr. Abramson sometimes employs topical anesthetic agents. Some patients may have slight swelling around the injection areas that will go away within a few hours.
