What Is Restylane Dermal Filler? Fill Facial Wrinkles And Enhance Your Lips

Signs of aging are a sad and inevitable part of aging, but they can also result from several factors. As we age, our skin becomes more fragile and dry, and our skin can no longer produce as many proteins and nutrients to rejuvenate it. Skincare products may help, but they are rarely effective, and so many consider Restylane dermal filler.

Wrinkles are the most apparent sign of aging. They are caused by natural aging and environmental factors like sun exposure, smoking, and stress. They can be treated in many ways, but the most effective way is to prevent them from happening in the first place. Many products claim to do this, but there is no guarantee that they will work.

If you want to sure way to deal with your wrinkles, you should consider Restylane dermal filler treatment. So what is this treatment, and does it actually work as promoted? 

What Is Restylane?

Restylane is one of the most popular dermal fillers in the world. It is a non-animal-based, biocompatible, and FDA-approved dermal filler that can be injected into a person’s face to smooth wrinkles and folds.

Restylane is used for facial rejuvenation and restoration of volume lost due to aging or injury. It can also be used for other body areas, including lips, cheeks, chin, etc. It was initially developed to treat facial lipoatrophy (loss of fat around the mouth), but it can also be used to help fill out lips or smooth out wrinkles.

A Dermal Filler

Dermal fillers are substances that can be injected into the skin to enhance its appearance. They are used for facial contouring and correcting wrinkles, scars, and other skin imperfections.

They are becoming more popular as they can be used to fix the imperfections of our skin without any long-term side effects. They can also help with acne scars and other skin imperfections. Dermal fillers are permanent, but they can be removed if needed. They usually are made out of hyaluronic acid, which has been proven to have no adverse side effects on the body.

Why Do Wrinkles Happen?

Wrinkles happen when the elastin and collagen production in the skin stops. The skin becomes thinner, which means that it cannot hold on to its natural moisture.

There are many causes of wrinkles but mainly sun exposure and age. Other causes include smoking, drinking alcohol, and not exercising regularly.

Wrinkles are prevalent in people who have a lot of sun exposure or don’t exercise regularly. This is because the body produces less elastin and collagen as we age, which leads to wrinkles appearing all over your face and around your eyes and mouth. Avoiding the sun doesn’t necessarily avoid wrinkles; there has to be a proper balance of sun exposure for young and glowing skin. 

How Restylane Helps Your Wrinkle Problems

Restylane is a dermal filler brand, and just like any other dermal filler, they are by design to help you deal with signs of aging. There is no need to turn to any surgical procedure or plastic surgeries, and all you need is simple injections. You can easily attain your aesthetic ideals in just a few short minutes. 

As impressive as that sounds, you might be wondering, how exactly does Restylane work that it can remove wrinkles? The wonders of Restylane lie in its unique formula, which is hyaluronic acid. 

How Hyaluronic Acid Combats Wrinkles

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that binds moisture to the skin, keeping it hydrated and youthful. It also helps to remove wrinkles by acting on three levels:

  • The molecular level: Hyaluronic acid molecules bind to collagen fibers and help them become more flexible. This makes the skin less likely to wrinkle.
  • The cellular level: Hyaluronic acid molecules bind with water molecules in the skin, which increases hydration levels. This hydration can help keep your skin healthy and reduce wrinkles caused by dryness.
  • The tissue level: Hyaluronic acid acts on fibroblasts, cells that produce collagen fibers. These fibers are then deposited in the dermis layer of your skin, making it harder for wrinkles to form.

A common theme that you can see in the list is collagen, and this protein is an essential part of removing wrinkles long-term. 

Why You Need Collagen

Collagen is a protein that constructs the framework of your skin. It helps to maintain the skin’s structure, and it’s also what gives your skin its elasticity and firmness. Collagen is also an essential component of other body tissues, such as tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, and teeth.

You have wrinkles because the collagen framework collapses, and the body can no longer replace the lack of collagen. By adding hyaluronic acid to your skin, the body now has the necessary fuel to ramp up collagen production again. 

How Restylane Can Help Your Lips

The lips are a significant part of the facial skin. They hold up the teeth and help to create a good-looking smile. As we age, our lips may lose their fullness and firmness and become dryer and thinner. This can result in the lips becoming wrinkled or even pulling down from the corners.

The best way to keep your lips hydrated throughout the day is to use lip balm and apply it before you go out or come home from outside—this will help protect against dehydration and keep your lips soft, smooth, and healthy-looking. 

While they are effective, they can only do so much since the effects of lip balm only work on the outside and not the inside. 

Restylane Enhances Your Lips Inside And Out

Take care of your lips and add volume to them to rejuvenate them and contour them to your liking. What better way than using Restylane to add hyaluronic acid to your lips? 

Restylane will enhance your lips’ volume, restoring what they once were. The dermal filler can reduce the wrinkles on your lips too. The hyaluronic acid in the Restylane dermal filler also avoids dryness, ensuring that wrinkles won’t return as quickly. 

Takeaway

Restylane dermal filler is one of the most effective and efficient methods to restore the volume of your face and lips. So if you are interested in the treatment, reach out and contact our clinic, Gig Harbor Aesthetics. We offer services that assist our clients in achieving their aesthetic needs.
