Description
Restylane Contour® is a dermal filler injected under the (facial) skin. Once in place, it helps restore the volume of your midface. Restylane Contour may also be used to increase the fullness of your cheeks.
Restylane Contour is made out of hyaluronic acid (HA) – a naturally occurring sugar, found in the body that gives the skin moisture, volume, and elasticity – and a small amount of lidocaine, which is a commonly used local anesthetic to numb the skin. Restylane Contour is crosslinked with BDDE, an ingredient that helps form a network of HA, to provide a gel filler that lasts longer at the treatment site.
Usage
As you age, your facial skin begins to lose its elasticity and volume. As a result, the face droops and shifts
downwards and your facial features may become hollow. Restylane Contour injectable gel is designed to temporarily restore volume to the midface and to add fullness to the cheeks in patients over the age of 21.
