Procedure Technique
Restylane dermal injections are performed in the treatment room at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery. While some Restylane treatments are pre-mixed with the local anesthetic lidocaine, a numbing cream may be put on the treatment areas for greater comfort if preferred. The treatment is injected in your skin with a very fine needle and gently massaged so it reaches the selected areas. Several injections may be performed followed by a cold compress to decrease inflammation. Every Restylane formula is injected with a similar technique but with different areas treated to fit your unique concerns and goals.
What to Expect
Once your Restylane procedure is done, you may resume your day. Your recovery timeframe will vary based on what you are having treated, so ask your injector about what you should expect. The treated areas may be slightly swollen and red, but this often resolves on its own after several hours. Bruising may appear but this may be camouflaged with cosmetics. It's suggested that you avoid strenuous activities like exercise for 1 – 2 days, and you should sleep with the head propped up for at least the first night. Many patients will experience visible changes right after the injections, but it often takes 1 – 2 weeks until the final results develop. Restylane injection treatments generally last about one year based on the formula selected.
