Restylane Lyft Now Approved for Hands

With age, men and women often experience fat and volume loss that can make them look older. While many patients seek cosmetic treatments to address facial wrinkles and folds, volume loss can affect the hands as well.

In fact, a decrease in fat and collagen and a weakening of muscles can cause the hands to appear skeletal and bony.

Fortunately, Restylane Lyft has been approved by the FDA to restore volume to the back of the hands for fuller and smoother skin.

Here’s what you need to know about Restylane Lyft for hand rejuvenation.

What Is Restylane Lyft?

Restylane Lyft is a dermal filler that is part of the Galderma family of injectables.

It’s made of hyaluronic acid–a substance that naturally occurs in the body and attracts water molecules to provide instant volume.

How Is Restylane Lyft Different From Restylane Classic?

Compared to Restylane classic, Restylane Lyft has larger particles that provide lifting and volume to areas that require a denser product.

This ability allows Restylane Lyft to be an excellent treatment for severe wrinkles and folds, cheek augmentation, and midface contour deficiencies.

How Can Restylane Lyft Improve the Appearance of Aging Hands?

Restylane Lyft was recently approved by the FDA to correct volume deficits in the backs of the hands, making it the first dermal filler to gain clearance for use on the body.

When injected under the skin, but above the connective tissue, Restylane Lyft provides immediate plumping and rejuvenation. As a result, it eliminates the appearance of prominent veins, bones, and tendons that age the hands.

What to Expect After Treatment?

Patients may experience mild and temporary swelling, tenderness, or itching. However, hand rejuvenation with Restylane Lyft requires zero downtime.

Best of all, results can be noted right away and last up to six months.
