The Restylane brand of hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers by Galderma has some exciting news. They received FDA approval of a new cheek filler called Restylane Contour. We couldn’t have named it better ourselves! In clinical studies, patient satisfaction was still strong at the year mark, so it’s safe to say this filler lasts for at least 12 months.* Restylane Contour is designed to augment cheeks and can restore lost facial volume, as well as enhance your cheek profile if you’ve never had as shapely cheeks as you would like.* It is the first and only filler in the United States for the cheek area that is formulated with XpresHAn Technology.™ This technology allows the filler to produce a more dynamic, natural expression in motion that moves as you move. This product has been used in Europe under the name Restylane Volyme since 2010, and more than 1.5 million patients have been treated with this filler worldwide.
What Restylane Contour Cheek Fillers Address?
- Reduced signs of aging
- Restored volume in your midface
- Increased fullness of your cheeks
- Produce youthful, natural cheek contour
- Results are proven to last up to one year
We all are increasingly looking for ways to attain and maintain a more youthful-looking appearance. As you age, your facial skin begins to lose its elasticity and volume. As a result, the face droops and shifts downwards and your facial features may become hollow.
Cheeks are such an important aspect of your facial structure, but they are also the first area to show signs of aging, losing shape and elasticity, most notably in the midface. Restylane Contour was specifically designed for this important feature, resulting in dynamic contouring to help amplify your natural-looking beauty starting with the cheeks.*
Candidates for Restylane Contour
Restylane products are for mid-to-deep injection into the facial tissue for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds. The FDA has approved use of Restylane Contour, a hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler, for cheek augmentation and the correction of midface contour deficiencies for adults over the age of twenty-one. Restylane Contour is specifically designed for cheek augmentation and for the correction of midface contour deficiencies.
HA dermal fillers are a safe and effective option to elevate, support, and restore a more youthful-looking appearance. Restylane Contour provides a treatment with high patient satisfaction*, but may not be right for some people.
- Restylane Contour shouldn’t be used by people with severe allergies, especially to lidocaine, gram-positive bacteria, or drugs that previously required in-hospital treatment
- People with bleeding disorders should also avoid treatment with Restylane Contour
- Additionally, patients taking medications that lower your body’s immune response or affect bleeding, such as aspirin or warfarin, as these medications may increase the risk of bruising or bleeding at the gel injection site
The Procedure
Like other fillers in the Restylane family, the procedure is relatively quick and painless.* The procedure usually takes less than an hour and can easily be fit into a work day.*
