How Restylane® Works

Restylane® treatments deliver immediate results by adding volume to the skin, effectively smoothing away wrinkles and enhancing facial features. This remarkable clear gel contains hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body. Restylane® is specially formulated to mimic the body’s hyaluronic acid, making it a safe and effective choice for reducing facial wrinkles and folds while adding fullness to the lips.

Common Side Effects

Patients may experience mild and temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. These effects typically subside within a few days.

The Restylane® treatment journey begins with a personalized consultation at Cultura. During this consultation, our experts will assess your unique facial characteristics and discuss your goals.
