I had injection 2weeks ago, Doc only used 1/2 syringe, How long can I hold on to other half
Answer: Restylane Silk We do not store syringes for patients, plain and simple. Once the syringe is opened, it is used that day and discarded.

Answer: Expiration time on Restylane Silk? Two weeks might be too long. However, I do not "save" any fillers for patients because there's a higher risk of infection once the sterile packaging is open. Speak with your injector before any treatments. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Restylane Silk Thank you for sharing your question. Once a syringe of any filler is opened, I will use it during one setting. I don't think it is safe to open a syringe, partially use it, and save the rest for later since there is a risk for infection. This is the current standard of care. Please make sure to see board certified injectors who have experience in the condition or area you would like treated. Good luck!

Answer: Restylane silk expiration Thank you for your question. We do not recommend saving syringes, it is best to do the entire syringe on the day of the procedure. But since you have some remaining it would be best to use within 4-6 weeks Please consult a local board certified facial plastic surgeon for more information and a comprehensive consultation
