Restylane offers a collection of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers to combat these aging effects. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the body that draws water molecules to subtly plump the skin and maintain a youthful glow.
Male patients are often understandably concerned that filler injections will look unnatural or feminize their facial structures, but Dr. Janiga and her associates are highly trained in injectables for both men and women. They understand how Restylane can be used alone or in combination with other procedures to enhance facial contours and a more youthful, masculine appearance.
Each type of Restylane filler has a slightly different hyaluronic acid (HA) formula that works best for different types of wrinkles in various areas of the face. These injectables can be used alone or combined, depending on each patient’s aesthetic goals and concerns.
Restylane Lyft has a thicker formula that is ideal for “lyfting” skin in the temples, cheeks, and mid-face areas to enhance more youthful and masculine facial contours. It can also be used to improve the appearance of nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines, and is FDA-approved for the hands.
Restylane Defyne is made with a cross-linked hyaluronic acid formula, which provides flexibility to maintain natural facial movement while having enough structure to effectively smooth wrinkles and deep facial lines and target mid-face volume loss. It can also be used to “defyne” the chin and strengthen the jawline.
Restylane Refyne has a smooth, flexible formula that works especially well for deep lines like nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Patients will retain natural facial movement and enjoy subtle volume enhancement.
Restylane Silk has a softer and thinner consistency than other Restylane fillers and is specifically designed for the delicate skin around the mouth. Men with perioral lines can benefit from this filler.
Restylane is a great option for men 21 and older who are in overall good health and seek a minimally invasive, non-surgical anti-aging treatment. Men with an active skin infection in the treatment area will need to wait until the skin is healed to receive treatment. To help minimize the chance of bruising, patients may be advised to temporarily avoid certain supplements or blood-thinning medications. Patients taking prescription medication must consult with the prescribing physician before pausing their treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Janiga or one of her associates will review your medical history to make sure you are a good candidate and discuss your goals to design a treatment plan that safely and effectively restores volume and a youthful appearance.
Your appointment will begin with the application of a topical anesthetic to promote comfort during treatment. The numbing cream takes about 20-30 minutes to take effect. Once the patient is ready, Restylane is strategically injected beneath the skin using a fine-gauge needle or a blunt tip cannula. The formulation contains lidocaine, which further reduces discomfort during the process. Most men find the procedure very tolerable, and treatment is typically completed in about 30 minutes.
Following Restylane treatment, temporary redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur at the injection sites. Mild bruising is possible and generally fades within one week, though healing times vary. Ice packs and over-the-counter pain medication can be used to reduce swelling and relieve any discomfort. There is minimal downtime, but patients should avoid strenuous exercise and placing excessive pressure on treated areas for approximately 48 hours to allow the filler to settle properly.
Restylane creates natural-looking results that complement each patient’s unique facial characteristics.
