Restylane

As people get older, the visible signs of aging rapidly increase due to certain factors including facial expressions such as laughing and scowling, and harmful effects of the sun. These signs of aging become clearly noticeable in the forms of wrinkles and lines on the face and on the skin of other parts of the body. As the skin starts to crumple down, it begins to lose its smoothness and young appearance. If you’re seeking an effective method to revitalize your skin without having to go through a surgical procedure, then Restylane is one of the ideal options for you.

Restylane is a synthetic sugar compound created to mimic a connective tissue component that occurs naturally. It was approved for use in 2003 and has been known in the cosmetic world as a dermal filler. Restylane is fast becoming one of the most popular types of dermal filler. This synthetic sugar compound uses the body’s own moisture for retaining moisture, which corrects wrinkles and adds fullness to the skin by adding water volume to it. What makes Restylane different from collagen treatment is that it’s not made from animal fat and its results can last longer.

Restylane corrects deep folds on the cheeks to bring more volume to the face and to provide a fuller shape. For lip augmentation, it’s injected into the upper and lower lips. This beauty treatment typically doesn’t require administration of anesthesia, but when used for lip augmentation, the practitioner administers a local anesthesia. Aside from the face, Restylane can also be administered on skin of other body parts that needs treatment.

FAQS: INJECTABLES

Do injectables hurt?

There is slight discomfort when injecting anything into the body, whether it is an immunization or cosmetic filler or neurotoxin. We may use numbing creams or apply cold compresses to relieve any discomfort.

What is the downtime after receiving injectables?

There is no downtime after fillers or neurotoxin injections.

How long does is take to see results from Botox or Dysport?

Neuromuscular disruptors such as Botox and Dysport take 3-7 days for the body to fully absorb the injection to see results.

How long does Botox or Dysport last?

Neuromuscular disruptors such as Botox and Dysport last roughly 4-6 months. Each body absorbs and processes injectables differently.

When would you use Dysport over Botox?

Your experienced injector will recommend the best treatment for your concerns. Generally, Dysport may be the better choice if you need quicker results, are treating larger areas, desire a more natural appearance, have developed resistance to Botox, or prefer a treatment that allows for some muscle movement.

When would you use Botox over Dysport?

Your experienced injector will recommend the best treatment for your concerns. Generally, Botox may be the better choice if you have small, specific areas you want to target, such as crow’s feet or fine lines on the forehead, Botox’s higher molecular weight can help keep the treatment more localized, preventing it from affecting nearby muscles. If you have used Botox before and were satisfied with the results, it might be best to stick with what you know works for your body.

How long does is take to see results from fillers?

Filler results are immediate. There will be some redness and swelling. It is advisable to refrain from wearing makeup, excessive exercise, sun exposure, and unnecessary lotions and creams for 24 hours.

How long do fillers last?

Different fillers will interact with different peoples bodies. You can expect your fillers to generally last 6-9 months.

How do I know which filler is best for my aesthetic concerns?

Your aesthetician or injector will know which type of filler is best for your specific skin and aesthetic concerns. The differences may include where you wish to have fillers, for instance you may need a thicker filler for a specific area. Your experienced, trusted Christina Clinc injector will know which will work best for you.

What Our Clients Are Saying

The best compliments are shared!

I had a BBL and MicroLaserPeel done at Christina Clinic. The office décor was so inviting, tasteful and relaxing. The new owner did my treatments. She was telling me the clinic is now woman and minority owned and they have lasers for all skin tones. She explained both procedures and what to expect during and after in such great detail. She took the time to discuss my face and customize my treatments. My skin looks amazing and I look much younger. Even my boyfriend noticed. I most definitely will be back.

I have had the best experience at Christina Clinic - especially with Betsy! Betsy is simply the best (however Lynn helped me too and was great and sweet too!). I am doing some laser hair removal and her knowledge, rapport/bedside manner, honesty with realistic expectations and skill is exactly what I want in a clinic. Every employee I connected with, from the front desk...to any other employee I passed by in the lobby were genuinely friendly. Their communication has also been amazing. I accidentally forgot an appointment (even though the sent a reminder text) and she knew the times that worked for me and was able to squeeze me in the next day. I HIGHLY recommend the Christina Clinic!

I came to Christina clinic for my upper lip hair and pimples on my face. I used to have a thick hair on my upper lip and a lot of pimples on my face. I was so embarrassed with my appearance. Then, I came to Christina clinic for Laser hair removal and Skin pen. I could see a great result since my first treatment. Now, I am almost done with my both treatments and feel satisfied. I would recommend this clinic for anyone who has the same problems.

I had been to a different laser hair removal clinic before and had disappointing results. I felt discouraged from laser hair removal clinics but when I came in for my consult appt at Christina Clinic I could instantly knew I came to the right place. From the very start I could tell they genuinely wanted to help get rid of your unwanted hair and werent just there to talk you into getting their packages. Betsy was absolutely fantastic and very attentive to how I was reacting to the treatment. She is super friendly, works around your schedule, and makes you feel comfortable asking questions, (overall awesome person!) thanks to her and the clinic, I saw significantly better results! The staff is extremely professional and kind, and i highly recommend checking them out for your laser hair removal needs:)

I visited the Christina Clinic almost ten years ago, and had an incredible experience. The staff were kind, very informed and experienced and always made me feel comfortable. I have very dark hair and olive skin, and from a very young age I was always self conscious and very aware of (what I thought was excessive as a kid) my darker ‘peach fuzz’ on my face. My eyebrows were thick and very usually (daily) required attention to keep them separate. Painful tweezing, waxing, shaving, the works… I’ve been incredibly pleased with the results, and after ten years, I’m going back to do it all again. … I love this place, and it’s changed my life.

I would highly recommend Christina Clinic! The staff is professional, knowledgeable, and very friendly, and the clinic is very clean and comfortable. I had cool sculpting with Betsy (I am very excited about my results) and she also did laser hair removal on me. Also, had Dysport done with Lynn who was quick and did a wonderful job! I will be returning soon for follow up treatments! They will take great care of you and recommend products to use to get the most from your treatments! You will be very happy with the service you receive at Christina Clinic!

I've been going to Christina's clinic for over a year now. Constance is an excellent electrolysis! She's very professional and does a very thorough job! I would highly recommend Constance at Christina's clinic for permanent hair removal. I am very pleased with my results! I always look forward to my appointments because Constance is a very good conversationalist! Highly recommend!

I've been a client to Jordan for about 5 years, I started with her at her first waxing job. I've moved with her so willing because of her amazing work She is very trust worthy, friendly and makes me super comfortable at the salon! I definitely will be sticking with Jordan for any of my skin needs!!

I smoked cigarettes for years and my skin payed the price! Tricia has been doing micro needling on me and I have so much more confidence now! She also set me up with some products that leave my skin literally glowing. She's taken the time to educate me on the benefits of different products and why they would work best for me pertaining to my skin type and my insecurities. Since starting to see Tricia, I've had so many compliments on how great my skin looks now! I can't wait to try other services. I 100% trust her! The location is so clean and beautiful. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. I found my new home for my skin care. Thanks to Tricia, I'm a new woman!

Very friendly atmosphere. Easy to schedule! Constance was completely professional and the treatment was very effective! I'd highly recommend them! They also have a variety of products and treatments that work very well! It has changed my whole perspective of myself! I feel like a new me.

I have been going to Christina clinic for 2 years now Constance is an excellent electrologist, and Trisha has given me a wonderful bbl, I've also had Botox here, would highly recommend this clinic the women who work here really care about you!

I have been going to Christina Clinic for several years for many different treatments. It's always a lovely experience with great results. Recently, I've been going in for Dysport to hide those not so wanted wrinkles and Lynn is always super helpful and informative on where best and how much of the Dysport I need. Christina Clinic makes me look and feel my best- I will continue to be a loyal customer!
