Restylane® gets to the heart ofthe problem of ageing skin.

But thanks to Restylane we can take steps to make it easier, so our looks reflect the agewe feel rather than the age we are.

Restylane for revitalised looksRestylane is an injectable treatment that contains hyaluronic acid.

Youthful skin is rich in hyaluronic acid (HA): a substance that binds water, hydrates theskin, and promotes all-important softness and fullness. But as we age, the HA in our skingradually becomes less efficient and leads to loss of volume and the tell-tale signs ofaging. When injected into the skin, Restylane effectively gives Nature a helping hand.
