RESTYLANE® SILK
SOFT, SUBTLE, STUNNING
We all want to look our best, and one great way to do that is with dermal fillers. As we age, the production of key substances in the skin, including hyaluronic acid (along with collagen and elastin) decreases. As a result, our skin loses volume, hydration, and plumpness. With the help of hyaluronic acid (HA), Ageless by Restylane® Silk adds volume to the lips, diminishing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. When injected into the lips, this dermal filler fills out wrinkles and fine lines by adding volume and definition. This can help make your mouth look fuller and more youthful again, which can also be helpful if you suffer from perioral wrinkles or sagging skin around your mouth. With a natural look and feel, Restylane® Silk is a great way to fill out the lips and give you a fuller pout, without the risk of over-injecting or painful swelling.
- CONCERN: Fine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss in the lips that can take on a stiff appearance when treated with conventional fillers.
- TREATMENT TIME: Each treatment takes approximately 15-30 minutes.
- RESULTS: Natural-looking volume.
WHAT IS RESTYLANE® SILK?
If you’re struggling with wrinkles and fine lines around your mouth and lips, or if you just want to add volume to your lips, Ageless by Restylane® Silk can help. It’s a specially designed dermal filler for patients looking for a more subtle approach to facial rejuvenation. It utilizes hyaluronic acid—a naturally occurring molecule in the body that holds water—to fill in both fine lines and deep wrinkles. This gel-like substance can be injected into the skin to help restore volume and plumpness to the lips.
Restylane® Silk should only be used to be injected into the lips and wrinkles around the lips (perioral lines). It should not be used in other parts of the face and body.
HOW DOES RESTYLANE® SILK WORK?
When you’re looking to smooth out your lines and wrinkles, you want lasting results. Unlike other dermal fillers on the market today, Restylane® Silk contains no collagen or calcium hydroxylapatite (CHA). These ingredients are found in most other fillers and are used to mimic natural skin structure; however, they can cause allergic reactions or produce an unnatural appearance over time. Because Restylane® Silk doesn’t contain these compounds, it’s less likely to produce adverse side effects such as bruising or swelling at injection sites.
When injected into lips with fine lines, wrinkles, or other signs of aging, Restylane® Silk stimulates collagen production in the skin and makes it appear younger. It’s also effective at filling out lips so they look fuller—whether you’re looking to get rid of a small gap between your top lip and teeth or want more fullness overall. The treatment is simple and requires only one visit to our office for injection, which means you’ll be able to get back to business as usual in no time!
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF RESTYLANE® SILK?
Restylane® Silk is the first dermal filler that was approved by the FDA to not only augment the lips but also smooth out the wrinkles around the mouth. This is a hyaluronic acid-based filler, which works by drawing in and holding moisture. The result is a slight plumping, the degree of which is controlled by the amount of gel used and where it is injected.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM YOUR SESSION
The procedure itself is quick and simple: Most patients feel little pain during the procedure, though some may experience mild discomfort or swelling afterward. Depending on your aesthetic goals and treatment areas, your session can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes.
You will notice an immediate increase in volume after your Restylane® Silk treatment, but it will take time for your results to settle, with the best results around two weeks after your treatment. Additionally, Restylane® Silk is also formulated with lidocaine to reduce any discomfort during treatment time. The results are subtle but noticeable. Your lips will look more plump and youthful without any of the telltale signs of injection scars or swelling.
