Know our NASHAs from our OBTs to create a personalised signature look with Restylane hyaluronic acid fillers
What is the science behind Restylane?
Restylane is the original non-animal stabilised hyaluronic acid dermal filler offering an extensive range of effects.1-6 The complementary range of Restylane dermal fillers can be tailored to any individual look to enhance and refine facial features.
What is the history of Restylane?
Galderma launched Restylane, the world’s first non-animal hyaluronic acid filler, in Europe in 1996 and secured the first FDA approval in 2003. Experience is built on more than 50 million treatments,7 over two decades of safety data, and a robust clinical trial programme characterising the efficacy, safety profiles, satisfaction, and durability of Galderma’s hyaluronic acid-based treatments. Restylane is the most well-established filler on the market with multiple decades of experience.7
WHY is Restylane the world’s most diverse range of HA fillers?
The Restylane range utilises two technologies to stabilise hyaluronic acid into a gel form. When injected, it adds volume to smooth wrinkles and enhances facial balance where needed. Restylane dermal fillers contain hyaluronic acid that has been stabilised with a cross-linking technology. This makes the chains of the hyaluronic acid molecules form a three-dimensional network that is remarkably similar to naturally occurring hyaluronic acid but does not degrade at the same rate. The Restylane range delivers results that last up to 24 months with one treatment.
Types of filler
1. Restylane NASHA gels
The Restylane Non-Animal Stabilised Hyaluronic Acid (NASHA) gels are firmer with minimal modification and are used to create projection and definition. The Restylane NASHA gels are very close to the natural composition of hyaluronic acid. They offer a precise and pronounced lift, suitable for lifting the cheeks, enhancing the jawline or chin, or reducing the appearance of wrinkles.10
2. Restylane OBT gels
The Restylane Optimal Balance Technology (OBT) gels are softer and more flexible enabling smoother integration into the tissue for natural-looking results. They are used, for example, to add volume in the mid-face, or to enhance contours for patients. Restylane OBT gels are also used for dynamic areas of the face such as lips and cheek wrinkles.3,4,11 OBT gels are most useful for contouring and expression.
