I've been been getting Restylane in my lips for almost 2 years now w/touch-ups (1/2-1/4 a syringe) about every 3 months. I'm so consistent that I've never seen much decrease in volume. I'm going to be away from my wonderful doctor, however for about 4 months since my last treatment.
I realize I'll lose some volume, but how gradual is it? And since I get treatments so often, does the product build up? I wonder if I can span treatments further apart -- more like every 4-5 months? Thanks so much!
You can wait longer than 3 months in between your lip injections with Restylane. In fact the product can last 6 months or in some cases even longer. You may want to consider trying Juvederm next time which can last from 6 to 12 months.

I injected Restylane under my eyes, I immediately felt that my left eye was different, it was puffy and bruised, I waited a month but it was the same,I went back to the doctor and he injected Hyaluronidase, and I waited for a month but my left eye was still the same. So far I injected Hyaluronidase 3 times over the year, but my left eye looks the same puffy with dark circle under it. Is surgery my only hope now? PLEASE help me
If the effects are indeed due to the restylane injection, which it sounds like they are then additional hyaluronidase injections should remove the remaining filler and return you to your previous state
I have Hollow Cheeks, I had Fat Implants, but It didn't work. I used Restilyn which is a water based filler. I seem to get rid of it very quickly, so is there an alternative, which helps with my hollow cheeks and is more long lasting. I thought about sculptra?
There are several options to restore volume into a hollowed appearing cheek area. Probably the best option is to use your own fat. This will require removal of fat from one area (ex. abdomen or thigh) and transfer to your cheek. Not all of the fat will survive, so you may need more than one procedure to get the best results. Another non-surgical option is Sculptra, which is polylactic acid and will stimulate the formation of new collagen. This requires a few injection sessions separated by 3-6 weeks each and allows for a gradual improvement in the area over time as you will not see the results immediately- the collagen will slowly regenerate. Radiesse is another injectable that can restore volume and stimulate new collagen formation. Both Radiesse and Sculptra can last from one to two years.
