What Is Restylane?
Restylane is an injected gel that contains an active ingredient called hyaluronic acid – a natural substance that is in the body that helps to fill in skin. Thus, Restylane injections work as a natural hyaluronic acid in the body to fill in creases to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, depending on your needs and how much filling is required, Lantry Aesthetic & Skincare Center will use a specific type of Restylane filler from the extensive line-up. Each filler uses a different composition that allows for effective filling for different scenarios.
