I lost 10lbs in the last 6 months due to stress. You can also see this weight loss on my face. I’m considering Restylane for my nasolabial folds. I am afraid that my nasolabial folds will look more stretched out when I gain my weight back since this weight will also be reflected on my face. Would this be the case? Will gaining weight have an effect on how my nasolabial folds look after Restylane?
