What Does Restylane® Teat?

RESTYLANE® DEFYNE AND REFYNE
Defyne and Refyne provide flexible filling and smoothing while maintaining a natural look during facial expressions.

Defyne and Refyne are developed specifically to treat lines, wrinkles, and folds around the nose and mouth known as nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
Restylane® Refyne offers a sophisticated solution to diminish lines and creases, targeting the moderate smile lines and the perioral area. Engineered using the innovative XpresHAn Technology™, it ensures your features stay dynamic and expression-friendly for results that appear inherently natural.

Post-Treatment Care, Downtime, and Results
Post-Treatment Care
Following any dermal filler treatment, you may experience some bruising and swelling. This will subside over 24-48 hours. Over the next several days, your results will become more apparent as the HA draws moisture to the area and the initial treatment swelling subsides.
With proper post-treatment care, the true beauty of your enhancements will be evident as you enjoy your rejuvenated, youthful appearance.
Downtime
There’s little to no downtime associated with Restylane®; however, we recommend that you avoid direct sunlight or exercise for 1-2 days following your treatment. We also recommend that you avoid aspirin and alcohol for several days following treatment, as these work as blood thinners that can make post-procedure bruising worse.
These precautions help minimize the risk of additional redness, swelling, and itching at the injection sites and contribute to a smoother healing process.
Results
Approximately two weeks after your treatment, you will return for a follow-up to make sure your results are progressing as expected. We may administer a little bit more filler during this time to improve your results.
Results can last from 9 months to 18 months based on the Restylane® product used and area treated.
