Restylane Lyft

Description

Restylane® Lyft™ by Galderma Aesthetics is an innovative, smooth (clear) gel-based injectable dermal filler specifically designed to add volume and to correct moderate-to-severe lines and folds which appear more noticeable as the skin ages.

Incorporating lidocaine to minimise discomfort during treatment, Restylane® Lyft™ is highly biocompatible and has a larger gel-particle size intended for subcutaneous to supraperiosteal implantation – for smoothing and correcting prominent to severe nasolabial folds and for adding significant volume to mid-facial depressions i.e. cheek and periorbital areas.

It can also be injected into the dorsal hand’s subcutaneous layer to rejuvenate and plump any volume deficiencies and depressions.

Part of the Emervel® collection by Galderma Aesthetics, Restylane® Lyft™ (formerly Perlane) is a cosmetic dermal filler formulated using XpresHAn Technology™ – an innovative process incorporating cross-linked hyaluronic acid to create a highly effective, long-lasting, smooth (clear) gel-based injection (1.0 mL) which facilitates rapid filler-tissue integration.

Specifically designed for deep dermis to superficial subcutis layer implantation – Restylane® Lyft™ adds fullness and volume, smoothing and correcting mid-facial contour deficiencies such as periorbital and cheek depressions whilst improving moderate-to-deep lines and creases (i.e. nasolabial folds, glabella and marionette lines).

Restylane® Lyft™ can also be injected into the dorsal hand’s subcutaneous layer to rejuvenate and plump any volume deficiencies and depressions.

Effects: improved skin hydration, elasticity, fullness – a brighter, more radiant, naturally youthful appearance with the flexibility to support natural facial expression.

Restylane® Lyft™ (clear-gel HA filler) ensures preclusion of any ‘bluish’ tinge when implanted in the periorbital area.

Results: within 1-2 days and lasting up to 10 months – longer depending on individual’s gene profile, age, lifestyle & environmental factors.

Precautions

Restylane® Lyft™ is indicated for patients over the age of 21 years.

Important treatment considerations for those with severe allergies and history of severe reactions (anaphylaxis) and those with allergies to the anaesthetic, Lidocaine.

Additional considerations: skin sores, rashes, cysts, hives and pimples; pregnancy & breastfeeding; bleeding disorders (re: injection site); scarring, skin-pigmentation disorders and the use of Restylane® Lyft™ in conjunction with other skin therapies e.g. laser treatment, chemical peels, etc.

Treatment may result in some mild to moderate swelling, itchiness, bruising and / or tenderness which normally dissipates over a 24 to 48 hour period dependent on the sensitivity of injection site.

Should temporary swelling, soreness and / or itching at the injection site occur, an ice-pack applied for relief is recommended.
Seek immediate medical attention should symptoms persist.

In the rare event Restylane® Lyft™ is injected intravascularly – seek immediate medical attention.
Complications may be serious and permanent and may cause scarring; damage to underlying facial structures; skin necrosis; stroke; vision abnormalities and impairment.

Due to normal skin-sensitivity following dermal filler treatment – strenuous activity should be avoided for at least 24 hrs and sun / heat exposure for at least one week.

Alcohol consumption should also be avoided for a minimum 24 hours following treatment as alcohol (acting as a blood-thinner) can cause blood vessels to dilate, leading to increased swelling and bruising.

Use within the expiration date on package.
