What is RESTYLANE CONTOUR?

Restylane Contour is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler designed to restore volume in the midface — specifically the cheeks. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar found in the body, but the hyaluronic acid in the filler is modified to last longer.

Aging causes skin to lose elasticity and volume, which can lead to drooping skin that shifts downwards and creates hollows in the facial features. Restylane Contour can be used to temporarily add fullness to the cheeks and restore volume in the midface in adults ages 21 and over. Results may last up to 12 months.

Restylane Contour was studied to determine its effectiveness and to ensure safety for use in patients.

Group A received needle injections. Half of Group B received needle injections, while the other half received the filler via cannula. The study doctors reported:

81.8% (45/55) of patients in Group B who received the filler using a cannula and 90.9% (50/55) of subjects treated with Restylane Contour using a needle had at least a 1-point improvement in midface volume 6 months after treatment

62.8 % (81/129) of patients treated with Restylane Contour in Group A had at least a 1-point improvement in midface volume 12 months after treatment

61.8 % (34/55) of patients in Group B who received Restylane Contour using a cannula and 65.5% (36/55) of patients treated with Restylane Contour using a needle had at least a 1-point improvement in midface volume 12 months after treatment

what is RESTYLANE CONTOUR made of?

The filler contains lidocaine, an anesthetic that helps numb the skin and minimize pain during the procedure. Restylane Contour is crosslinked with BDDE, which is a substance that helps form a network of hyaluronic acid to extend the longevity of the gel in the treatment site.

faq

what are the benefits of Restylane Contour?

Restylane Contour will temporarily restore volume to the midface, helping patients achieve a younger, more natural appearance. The filler will also temporarily add volume in the cheeks.

am i a candidate?

During the initial consultation, the specialist will ask questions about the patient’s medical history, allergies, current medications, and treatment goals and expectations. All of this information will be used to determine whether a patient is a good candidate for Restylane Contour. Patients should mention if they have severe allergies with a history of severe reactions (anaphylaxis) or multiple severe allergies. The specialist will also need to know if the patient is allergic to the anesthetic lidocaine or to any of the proteins used to formulate the hyaluronic acid in Restylane Contour (bacterial proteins).

are there any side effects?

The treatment is very safe, with few serious side effects. After treatment, patients may experience mild pain, tenderness, swelling, redness, bruising, and itching. Most side effects resolve within one to two weeks.
