How long does Restylane skin booster last before it naturally dissolves?

Question

How long will it take to naturally dissolve please

James R. Gordon, MD, FACS, FAAO · Answer

Thank you for sharing your question. There are several Restylane products. The duration of results depends on particular product used and location of placement. Thick products last longer and area on the face which do not move as much has longer duration. See an experienced Oculofacial Surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and proper guidance. Good luck,

Thank you for your question. The duration of a dermal filler depends on how much product was used along with area treated. Results will last anywhere between 6-12 months depending on area with lips being shortest. For more information, please get in person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist.

Dear caraworried:Restylane is a hyaluronic acid (HA) gel. It is a volumizer of soft tissue which has thinned or atrophied. It generally lasts an average of a year in non-mobile (like the cheek) regions. HA's attract water, forming a “jello-like” expansion and is easy to dissolve with hyaluronidase enzyme if needed. 
Sculptra, IS a booster, stimulating the dermal fibroblast to form HA's, collagen, elastin and other skin structural molecules.   Discuss your concerns with your injector or consult with a skilled and talented, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for your continued care. All the best!
