I mean if your doctor keeps your syringe saved for you
Answer: Leftover Restylane In our practice, we don't save syringes. There is a finite chance that your syringe could be mixed up with that of another patient, transmitting disease or infection. This can occur due to natural human error even if samples are labeled. If the doctor doesn't save syringes, that chance is zero.

Answer: How long does Restylane syringe last once opened? While we have not read the study Dr. Weiner references (that states the product will remain sterile for 9 months), we have a policy at our practice of not saving syringes.

Answer: There are potential risks with saving opened Restylane Any physician or less who is saving Restylane is probably cutting corners elsewhere as well. The practice of 'saving' fillers is one that is fraught with problems ranging from the potential of mixing it up with other product to becoming contaminated. Even if it doesn't have any of these issues, just the concern of either of these is enough to keep most reputable physicians from doing this.
