Restylane® Lyft

Need a Little Lyft?

As we age, natural fat deteriorates, resulting in sagging skin and more prominent wrinkles. If you’re concerned about the signs of aging on your face and hands, Restylane® Lyft may be the perfect solution for you. It’s a safe, effective, and dissolvable hyaluronic filler, which provides natural-looking, long-lasting results.

  1. CONCERN: Lines & wrinkles due to loss of volume midface and cheek areas, deep tear troughs, thin lips, and thinning skin around the hands.
  2. TREATMENT TIME: You will begin to see results on the day of treatment with the maximum results showing at 14 days.

What is Restylane® Lyft?

Restylane® Lyft is a specially formulated dermal filler that can be injected to boost volume and eliminate signs of aging in one appointment. This innovative treatment was developed specifically for those who want a more youthful appearance and feel their best—without having to resort to surgeries or BOTOX® injections. It can be used to improve the appearance of your lips, contour your face, and fill in under-eye hollows. It can also be used to create a more youthful look by lifting drooping cheeks and filling in wrinkles and reducing signs of aging in your hands.

Created with hyaluronic acid and a small dose of lidocaine to make injections as comfortable and as pain-free as possible, Restylane® Lyft is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler. Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in body parts—such as the eyes and joints—and promotes moisturization. When used as a dermal filler, the hyaluronic acid attracts water and plumps the skin for a luminous “glow from within.”

How Does Restylane® Lyft Work?

When you inject Restylane® Lyft into your skin, the hyaluronic acid slowly begins to dissolve as it is absorbed by the skin. That means it doesn’t just fill in wrinkles or crevices, it helps stimulate collagen production, producing new cells more efficiently. This treatment addresses four major concerns when it comes to anti-aging:

  • Fine lines
  • Wrinkles
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Lips
  • Cheeks and midface

Once injected into the skin, it creates an instant plumping effect, lifting the skin and smoothing away fine lines and wrinkles. It’s a popular choice among women who have lost volume in their lips, cheeks, skin around the eyes, and hands for a more youthful appearance.

What Are the Benefits of Restylane® Lyft?

Restylane® Lyft is a breakthrough technology that can dramatically improve the appearance of your skin. By injecting it directly into your problem areas, we can improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as plump up areas that have lost volume. The main benefit of using Restylane® Lyft is that it provides long-lasting results. The effects of the treatment can last up to 12 months, depending on your lifestyle and the amount of product used. To maintain your results, we recommend coming in for regular maintenance.

The benefits of Restylane® Lyft include:

  • Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth and nose (diminishes nasolabial folds).
  • Reduces volume loss due to aging in the lips or cheeks (chubby cheek effect).
  • Helps create a more youthful appearance by filling out sunken areas of the face (cheek augmentation).
