Restylane make sure it is the real thing
Restylane is a hyaluronic acid which is a clear gel. If you have any questions as to what you may be injected with ask for the physician to open the box for you and give you the coded serial number or box top. This is not an unusual request as most of the time there are rebates offered by Restylane and if you sign up for that with copy of payment and syringe or lot number you are entitled to a corporate rebate. Make sure you go to a reputable physician and this should not be in question.

Ask your physician to show you the Box
The best way to tell this is to ask for the box beforehand. Tell the physician that you would like the box before the injections and the handout for post-injectiin care. Merely say that you want to be sure that these items are not forgotten when you leave.
Or you can be more direct and just say you would like to see the box.
Restylane, through Medicis, has a seal-like proof of purchase sticker at one end of the box. If you see this, you can be sure that it is Restylane.
