Restylane Silk Before & Afters

Restylane Silk is a hyaluronic acid-based filler used to add subtle volume to the lips and fill lip lines and cheek wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is a protein-sugar molecule naturally found in the body, helping to enhance hydration. Synthetic hyaluronic acid effectively fills lines and adds volume. And for this reason, many dermal fillers are made with hyaluronic acid. However, each hyaluronic acid-based filler has unique properties.

Compared to other Restylane fillers, Restylane Silk is smoother and finer, with a silky consistency.

Benefits of Restylane Silk

Restylane Silk provides volume without lifting, making it effective in enhancing lip lines. The silky filler is also a great choice for subtly plumping the lips and achieving results that appear natural yet full. Because the filler doesn’t create excessive volume, there’s no real risk of developing “duck lips.”

What to Expect

The entire treatment will take about an hour to complete. The specialist will begin by cleansing and numbing the treatment area with an anesthetic. The aesthetician will then use an ultra-thin needle to inject a small amount of Restylane Silk gel into the treatment area. Some clients will see immediate results, but the full effect of the Restylane Silk injections will become visible over time. In addition, treatment will minimize the appearance of fine lines and scars.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a candidate for Restylane Silk?

The ideal candidate for Restylane Silk is an adult 21 years of age or older who wants fuller, more symmetrical lips or less noticeable fine lines around the mouth. It’s important to have realistic expectations of treatment results, be in good general health, and fully understand the treatment process.

How do I prepare for treatment?

During the initial consultation, the specialist will examine the client’s lips, ask questions about their medical history, and discuss treatment expectations. One week before treatment, clients should stop taking products containing aspirin, ibuprofen, or naprosyn to reduce the risk of bruising. The day of the procedure, clients will need to cleanse their skin and avoid applying makeup.

What is recovery like?

Most clients won’t need any recovery time and should be able to immediately return to their daily routine. Some individuals may experience discomfort, swelling, or bruising for a few days after treatment. Applying an ice pack may help minimize these side effects.

Are there any side effects?

Treatment with Restylane Silk may cause swelling, bruising, and pain. The best way to minimize these risks is to avoid taking St. John’s Wort, high doses of Vitamin E supplements, aspirin, and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (such as ibuprofen) before treatment with Restylane Silk, as these may increase the risk of bleeding. Prior to treatment, the physician will explain what else should be avoided in the days leading up to treatment. There is no downtime after treatment with Restylane Silk.
