What is Restylane®?

Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic dermal

filler that restores volume and fullness to

the skin to correct moderate to severe facial

wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds.

What is Restylane made of?

A Restylane is the first cosmetic dermal filler

made of non-animal-based hyaluronic acid.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that

already exists in the human body and is

used to provide volume and fullness to the

skin. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane is a

crystal-clear gel called NASHA,™ or Non-

Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid. NASHA

is biodegradable and fully biocompatible

with human hyaluronic acid.

Q How is Restylane different than other

hyaluronic acid-based products?

A Unlike rooster-derived hyaluronic acid based

products, Restylane is free from animal

proteins. This quality limits any risk of

animal-based disease transmission or allergic

reaction. Restylane contains trace amounts

of gram-positive bacterial proteins and

should not be used by patients with a history

of allergies to such material. Additionally,

Restylane has the highest concentration of

hyaluronic acid available in a dermal filler.
