Restylane is an FDA-approved non–animal-stabilized hyaluronic acid derivative used for soft tissue augmentation. It is a bacterial derivative and does not require an animal source.
It is used to treat wrinkles/creases and scars as well as being effectively used in lip augmentation. Because it is a hyaluronic acid derivative, Restylane has less risk of clumping and applies more smoothly than many other dermal fillers.
Restylane correction typically lasts for 3 to 6 months.
