Fine lines around your mouth, hollow cheeks, or thinning lips can make you look tired or older than you feel. If you have noticed volume loss or deeper folds in the mirror lately, you are not alone, and you do not need surgery to refresh your appearance.
At Old Town Med Spa, Drs. Nael and Shazel Gharbi, known as the MD Brothers, bring more than a decade of medical experience and advanced aesthetic training to every injection. Their precise technique and commitment to natural-looking results have made them one of Chicago’s most trusted teams for hyaluronic acid fillers.
What Is Restylane?
Restylane is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler designed to smooth moderate-to-severe wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance facial features. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar molecule that helps your skin hold water, so once injected, Restylane plumps the treatment area and softens the look of lines and folds.
Areas Restylane Can Treat
-
Nasolabial folds (nose-to-mouth lines)
-
Cheeks and chin
-
Lines between the eyebrows
-
Lips and the area around the mouth
-
Back of the hands
Types of Restylane Fillers
The Restylane family includes several formulations, each tailored to a specific concern:
-
Restylane Lyft – cheek volume and smoother hands
-
Restylane Defyne & Refyne – deeper folds with natural movement
-
Restylane Silk – subtle lip enhancement and fine perioral lines
-
Restylane Kysse – fuller, softer lips
-
Restylane Contour – cheek shaping and definition
Your provider will recommend the right product or combination during your consultation.
Ideal Candidates
Restylane may be right for you if you are a healthy adult with realistic expectations who wants to smooth wrinkles, restore volume, or enhance the lips and cheeks without surgery. A consultation confirms whether the treatment fits your goals and medical history.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your appointment begins with a brief consultation and skin cleansing, followed by a topical numbing agent for comfort. Your provider then injects the filler into carefully mapped areas using a fine needle or cannula. Most sessions take under an hour, and you can return to most daily activities right after, though mild swelling or redness is normal.
How Long Results Last
Results are visible immediately and continue to refine over the following days. Depending on the product, your skin type, and your lifestyle, results typically last 6 to 12 months. Touch-up sessions help maintain a fresh, balanced look.
