Restylane® in Corona, CA

Restylane is one of the most popular brands of injectable dermal fillers to treat lines, wrinkles, and lost volume because it treats several issues with specialized formulas for results that are long-lasting and unique to each patient. Using a synthetic version of the body's natural hyaluronic acid (HA), Restylane provides the skin a natural, softer look that is fuller and more supple. A custom treatment plan can correct mild to severe facial lines and wrinkles, and also add volume to the cheeks and lips. The Plastics Doc carries many Restylane products, like:

• Restylane: Used to fill in facial folds and wrinkles

You may be a good candidate for Restylane dermal fillers if you are at least 21 years old and want to rejuvenate your overall appearance. Since it has so many formulas, your treatment plan will be completely customized to suit your unique needs and goals. With Restylane, you may be able to treat visible signs of aging or boost the fullness in your cheeks and lips. To provide you with an even more rejuvenated and youthful look, Restylane can also improve moderate to severe wrinkles, like laugh lines, frown lines, Crow's feet, marionette lines, nasolabial folds, and more. Certain treatments have the anesthetic lidocaine so you should share any known allergies during your pre-treatment consultation with plastic surgeon Dr. Salcedo to avoid a negative reaction.

Restylane injections can be performed in either our Corona or Beverly Hills, CA locations. While some of the fillers include anesthetic lidocaine, a numbing cream may be applied for increased patient comfort if requested. The treatment is injected in your skin with a very fine needle and is then gently massaged so it reaches all the desired areas. Several injections may be performed based on your goals, followed by a cold compress to reduce inflammation. Each Restylane filler is administered with the same technique but on different areas of your face in order to meet your unique needs and goals.

Once your Restylane treatment is complete, you can return to normal activities. Your recovery timeframe will vary based on what is being treated so ask your injector about what you should expect. Your injection spots may appear slightly swollen and red, but this is normal and typically goes away in a few hours. Bruising can be a factor, but this can usually be covered up with makeup if you so wish. We suggest that you avoid strenuous activities, like exercise, for a day and sleep upright for at least the first night. You might notice some visible changes immediately after your treatment, but it usually takes 1 – 2 weeks until your final results develop. Restylane injection treatments generally last around a year based on the formula selected. Dr. Salcedo or a member of his team can help you schedule return visits to keep your rejuvenated appearance last even longer.

Do Restylane injections hurt?

Some patients feel a bit of discomfort when a fine needle is administered beneath the skin. However, our team at The Plastics Doc does everything we can to make your Restylane treatment tolerable. After your injections, we suggest using a cool compress and sleeping upright to reduce common side effects like bruising and swelling.

Will I look fake after Restylane?

The unique Restylane formula is designed to produce a plump appearance without going overboard. Treatment should produce natural-looking results, especially performed by a skilled injector. Dr. Salcedo works to understand your facial anatomy and cosmetic goals — so you look like yourself, only more refreshed.
