Restylane is a cosmetic dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance that already exists in the human body. The hyaluronic acid in Restylane is a crystal-clear gel called NASHA™ or Non-Animal Stabilized Hyaluronic Acid. NASHA is completely biocompatible with human hyaluronic acid. Restylane maintains its shape using the body's own moisture. Restylane is hydrophilic or "water loving."
After your treatment, you might have some redness or swelling. This will normally last less than seven days. Sunbathing and cold outdoor activities should be avoided until any redness or swelling disappears. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18, you shouldn't use Restylane.

Post-treatment Checklist for Restylane
- After your treatment, you might have some redness and swelling. This will normally last less than seven days. A cold compress may be used immediately after treatment to reduce swelling. If the inconveniece continues beyond seven days or other reaction or side effects occur, please contact Dr. Cockerham.
- Avoid touching the treated area within six hours following treatment. After that, the area can be gently washed.
- Sunbathing and cold outdoor activities should be avoided until any redness or swelling disappears.
- If you have previously suffered from facial cold sores, there is a risk that the needle punctures could contribute to a recurrence. Speak to Dr. Cockerham about medications that may minimize a recurrence.
- Avoid exercise and alcohol for six hours after treatment.
