Restylane Therapy

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December of 2003 approved an injectable gel to treat facial wrinkles.

Studies showed that the device, Restylane, is safe and effective for filling moderate to severe wrinkles around the nose and mouth. Most patients needed one injection to get optimal correction; about one-third of patients needed more than one injection to get a satisfactory result. The effect lasted about six months.

Restylane is made with hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in the human body and is used to provide volume and fullness to the skin.
