Restylane Silk: A Dermal Filler for 20 Somethings

While some may credit Kylie Jenner with the trend of millennial lip enhancement, others point to the availability of fillers, like Restylane Silk, that offer a subtler way for younger patients to augment and reshape their lips.

What Is Restylane Silk?

Restylane Silk is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler for subtle lip enhancement and the treatment of perioral lines, also known as smoker’s lines.

Its main ingredient, hyaluronic acid, makes Restylane Silk an excellent way to plump, smooth, and hydrate lips, without overpowering them.

How Is Restylane Silk Different from Other Dermal Fillers?

Restylane Silk’s composition makes it an ideal injectable for patients that want to conservatively augment their lips, correct asymmetry, or add definition to lip borders.

That’s because it contains a high concentration of cross-linked chains and produces extremely smooth and fluid results.

Plus, the hyaluronic acid particles in Restylane Silk are smaller than those found in other dermal fillers, enabling it to precisely address fine lip lines and discrete irregularities.

Why Is Restylane Silk a Dermal Filler for 20 Somethings?

Many 20 somethings have turned to Restylane Silk as a safe and effective way to re-contour their lips and improve their proportions.

Whereas older patients tend to seek dermal fillers to restore lost volume and rejuvenate skin, younger patients are attracted to Restylane Silk for its ability to enhance their appearance and achieve greater facial harmony.

Why Are More Younger Patients Interested in Dermal Fillers?

In addition to the availability of a product like Restylane Silk, that more closely matches their needs and goals, 20 somethings are deciding to undergo lip injections after learning about the treatment on social media and seeing natural-looking results on young celebrities.

Ultimately, a number of these patients view Restylane Silk as a means of replicating their favorite lipstick and liner on a more permanent basis.
