Restylane Silk®

The lips and mouth are some of the first areas of the face to show signs of aging as you get older. Hyaluronic acid and collagen begin to slow production along with other structural elements of the skin, this results in lip thinning, lost contours, and vertical lines around the lips. To help treat the aging signs of the lips and mouth Restylane Silk® was designed specifically to give natural-looking results. Restylane Silk treatments are offered at the Taylor Plastic Surgery MedSpa here at the practice of Dr. Robert Taylor and Dr. Kasia Kania.

How Does Restylane Silk Work?

The Restylane Silk dermal filler is the first FDA approved injection treatment that is designed for subtle lip augmentation and smoothing of wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth. The gel in the injectable is made of Hyaluronic acid but uses smaller particles for a smoother feel that results in softer, more precise results. The injection containing hyaluronic acid helps to add moisture and volume to areas in the lips that have lost this. Since the gel is thinner, it provides more natural-looking results than other products.

How Long Do Restylane Silk Results Last?

Most patients who get Restylane Silk enjoy results that last for six months. Patients typically see a noticeable improvement in the lips within two weeks of the treatment session. If you wish to maintain the results, repeat treatments can be scheduled at Taylor Plastic Surgery.
