NEW WRINKLE TREATMENTS Until now it hasn't been possible to smooth wrinkles immediately, because you are either had to wait for the results of a collagen skin test or endure a long recovery from surgery. But that has changed with Restylane and Hylaform injectables. Restylane and Hylaform injectables are made from a naturally occurring material that provides support and cushioning within the skin. The treatment restores smoothness by replacing this material, which has deteriorated and been lost with age. Because it is similar to your naturally occurring hyaluronic acid, there is no need to have a skin test before treatment. Rystylane and Hylaform "fills" and smoothes facial lines. Having these treatments is not like cosmetic surgery or laser resurfacing. The procedure is quick and simple; a treatment may take as little as 30 minutes. Possible side effects are bruising and swelling. Allergic reactions may also occur. Restylane and Hylaform are introduced just under the skin's surface through a very fine needle. It is injected at intervals along the line until the right amount of correction has been achieved. The treated area is then massaged gently to smooth the surface. It can be used to "fill" and smooth out smile lines, crow's fee, frown lines, worry lines, acne scars, small lines around the lips and some other facial lines. Rystylane and Hylaform is most often used to treat the border of the lips. This can add definition to the lip border for those who desire a fuller look. Because Rystylane and Hylaform is similar to the components of your own skin, it will gradually break down and be naturally absorbed by your body. This is one of the advantages of this treatment.
