Restylane® Lyft
FDA approved
Restylane® Lyft is a hyaluronic acid soft tissue filler that is FDA approved for cheek augmentation, correction of age-related midface volume loss, and to smooth out the nasolabial folds (smile lines). Hyaluronic acid is safe and is commonly used as a facial filler because it is sugar molecule naturally found in the body. Restylane® Lyft was previously branded as Perlane-L, prior to adding the indication for age-related volume loss.

Why do we need fillers?
The aging process results in the sagging of facial skin due to a number of factors, including loss of elasticity and volume. The deep facial structures lose volume, particularly in the bone and fat. This volume loss results in a relative excess of skin and midfacial descent, ie a tired and aged appearance. A youthful face appears full with high cheekbones. Soft tissue fillers are used to revolumize the areas of volume loss due to aging.How is the procedure done?
Restylane® Lyft is an in-office procedure that takes just a few minutes. Dr Dass will first asses the face and determine the areas of concern. A series of injections will be placed to improve the facial contours, restore volume, and make the face appear more balanced. The injections contain Lidocaine (a local anesthetic) to make the procedure well tolerated. You may experience temporary redness and/or bruising due to the injections.How long does it last?
You will see the results immediately after the injections are placed. The results are temporary because hyaluronic acid is slowly broken down by the body. The Restylane® Lyft injections will last 9-12 months depending on the location where it was injected. With repeat injections at 6 months, a technique called product layering, the improvement may last 18-24 months.Schedule your treatment today!
