Main Benefits
Restylane® 1ml with Lidocaine is a clear, sterile, and viscoelastic gel that fights signs of facial aging with a low chance of causing pain. Using Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid (NASHA), this Restylane® formulation adds volume into the mid-to-deep dermis to correct moderate to severe wrinkles, such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Additionally, this filler can act as an implant for lip enhancement. This FDA-approved Restylane® gel is suitable for patients over 21 years of age who wish to maintain their youthful glow and radiance. As the first product to use a synthetic, biocompatible hyaluronic acid, Restylane® is highly efficacious, as evaluators in one study deemed that 95% of patients treated with it displayed dermal improvements 18 months after an initial injection of the product.
Ingredients
This Restylane® formulation is made up of sodium chloride, 20mg/ml of hyaluronic acid, phosphate buffer pH 6.8–7.4 q.s., and 0.3% lidocaine.
Ingredients Information
Hyaluronic acid, a sugar molecule, is the prime component in this Restylane® filler that supports the skin’s vitality. This component attracts and binds to water molecules to provide the skin with ample hydration and volume. Furthermore, this acid boosts collagen and elastin synthesis to create a firmer dermal complexion. Unfortunately, the natural concentration of this acid in the body depletes with the onset of aging.
Restylane®’s solution to this is to introduce stabilized and synthetic hyaluronic acid in the skin to fill the volume of marked imperfections and create a radiant glow. Made from Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid (NASHA) sourced from Streptococcus bacteria, Restylane®’s hyaluronic acid is also cross-linked through the use of BDDE, which means Restylane®’s gel network lasts longer and has a slower degradation rate inside the skin than non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid. With minimal modifications and the thorough elimination of impurities, Restylane® is biocompatible and does not provoke any severe adverse reactions.
Lastly, lidocaine reduces the pain and burning sensation of the injection process for patients.
How to Use
How Do I Use or Apply Restylane® 1 ml?
Before proceeding with the Restylane® treatment, educate the patient on the expected results, indications, precautions, and potential side effects of this filler while identifying the condition of their skin. Clean the area with an antiseptic solution.
Prepare the syringe and the needle by inserting the needle to the Luer lock system of the syringe. Before the Restylane® injection, remove all air in the needle by slowly pushing the plunger rod until a small droplet appears at the tip of the needle.
Advance the needle into the site of Restylane® treatment, making sure to avoid any blood vessels. Inject this Restylane® filler into the mid-to-deep dermis layer of the skin to correct wrinkles and folds. For lip correction, apply the filler into the sub-mucosal layer. To ensure full and specific coverage, use the serial puncture, linear threading, or cross-hatching technique for lip augmentation accordingly. Just before removing the needle, stop the injection to avoid any leakage. In a study on Restylane®, the median total dose for treating midface wrinkles was 3.0–6.0ml and 1.5ml per lip. Avoid over-correction.
Massage the treated area(s) to ensure even distribution of the Restylane® filler. Dispose of all needles and syringes using the appropriate bio-hazard disposal methods.

How Long Does Restylane 1 ml Last?
In one clinical study, this Restylane® filler delivered significant improvements for 18 months after the initial injection. However, this study also provided retreatment at four and a half and/or nine months to participants.
The Restylane® filler must be used prior to the expiration date printed on its packaging and should be stored at a temperature of up to 25°C.
How Long Does the Treatment Take?
Treatment with this Restylane® product is quick and efficient and, on average, only takes about 30 minutes. With minimal to no downtime, the results of this Restylane® filler are immediate and natural looking. Apply an ice pack or ice water compress onto the treated area(s) to reduce the severity of swelling or bruising.
Remind patients to minimize exposure to UV rays and extreme cold weather after the initial Restylane® treatment until any initial swelling and redness is resolved. They should also avoid excessive exposure to the Sun.
