Restylane® injections in Harrisburg, PA

Board-certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Theodore T. Foley, offers the Restylane family of fillers to individuals who wish to diminish facial wrinkles and fine lines. Like Juvederm, Restylane is composed of hyaluronic acid, which works to smooth unwanted wrinkles. Not only does Restylane decrease the appearance of facial creases, but it adds moisture to the skin for a beautiful, long-lasting glow. Results are immediately evident and you can see a smoother, younger profile that you will love. Restylane Silk is also available for lip enhancement and is commonly combined during Restylane treatments for fuller, sexier lips. Restylane Defyne and Restylane Refyne, the newst in the Restylane family, are also available at Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery of Central Pennsylvania. Restylane Refyne smooths moderate facial wrinkles while Restylane Defyne helps reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles. Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery of Central Pennsylvania in Camp Hill, PA, offers a wide variety of dermal fillers and is happy to help you determine which one is best for you.

Both men and women can attain softer, natural looking results with Restylane. It is safe to use for any skin type and any ethnicity and works best for patients who have experienced a loss of volume around the mouth, under the eyes, and for those who have "cracks" to fill, such as the deep lines that can develop between the eyebrows. Women who desire to have fuller lips are also good candidates for this filler.

Restylane is administered through an easy and quick injection process. The esthetician will mark the injection sites on the patient’s face using a washable marker, in order to ensure accuracy during the procedure. Using a thin needle, the gel is injected into the designated areas to smooth wrinkles and folds as well as add volume to the face. A numbing ointment may be rubbed around the injection sites to prevent discomfort during treatment. The duration of the treatment is dependent upon how much filler is being injected and where. Typically, treatment will last up to an hour and patients leave looking younger and refreshed.

Following treatment, the effects of Restylane can be seen immediately. Lines that once appeared as deep cracks, will appear smooth and soft. For patients receiving a Restylane injection into the lips, the lips will appear swollen for a couple of days, but then will look natural and beautiful. Immediately following the treatment, there may be some swelling and redness that occurs at the injection sites, however this will go away after a few hours. Patients are advised to follow all aftercare instructions to see the best results and they may return to their regular routines immediately. Results are expected to last 6 to 12 months. After that time, patients may return for additional treatment.
