Restylane in Austin

At Face Austin, we bring high-level surgical precision and an artistic eye to every injectable treatment. Led by double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Marcelo Antunes, our team customizes each Restylane® treatment to smooth, lift, and balance your features. You'll always look like yourself, just completely refreshed.

What Is Restylane?

Restylane® is an FDA-approved line of clear gel dermal fillers composed of biocompatible hyaluronic acid (HA). Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar molecule in the skin that binds water, delivers hydration, and gives youthful skin its firm structure and volume.

Over time, natural fat pads descend, bone density diminishes, and skin loses its natural HA reserves, creating hollows, folds, and fine lines. When placed by a trained facial specialist, Restylane integrates smoothly into your natural tissue layers to restore lost structural support, soften dynamic creases, and enhance facial harmony.

The Benefits of Restylane

  • Looks and Moves Naturally: Uses smart gel technology so your face stays soft and expressive when you smile, talk, or laugh.
  • Instant Results, No Downtime: Walk out of your appointment with smoother skin and fuller contours, then get right back to your day.
  • Targeted Formulas: Custom formulas made specifically for tricky spots like under-eye hollows, lips, cheeks, and smile lines.
  • Safe and Reversible: Made with hyaluronic acid (something your body naturally produces) that can easily be adjusted or dissolved if needed.
  • Quick and Comfortable: Formulated with a gentle built-in numbing agent to make the injection process virtually painless.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Restylane?

Because Restylane is formulated with biocompatible hyaluronic acid, it is well-tolerated by almost all adult patients. During your private consultation, our master injectors will evaluate your facial anatomy, review your health history, and build a specialized treatment plan tailored to your goals. You may be an ideal candidate for Restylane in Austin if you:

  • Wish to correct mild-to-moderate facial volume loss without undergoing surgery.
  • Want to address tired-looking under-eye hollows (tear troughs).
  • Seek to refine lip shape, symmetry, or volume with flexible movement.
  • Want to define a weak chin or smooth deep nasolabial folds.
  • Are in good overall health with realistic expectations for non-surgical outcomes.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

Your visit begins with a personal facial assessment in our quiet, luxury space, where we map out your injection points and apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable.

The treatment itself is quick, usually around 20 minutes. Using ultra-fine needles or delicate micro-cannulas, our providers place the gel into the precise layers of your skin to protect surrounding tissue and minimize post-treatment bruising. You’ll be able to see your new contour and volume in the mirror before you even head out the door.

Post-Treatment & Aftercare

There is no recovery period needed with Restylane, so you can head straight back to work, errands, or your normal routine after leaving our clinic.

  • Common Reactions: You might notice light swelling, mild redness, or a tiny pinpoint mark where the gel was placed. These are completely normal, temporary responses that fade over the next day or two.
  • Easy Recovery Tips: Give your skin a day or two to settle by skipping intense gym sessions, saunas, hot tubs, and happy hour drinks for 24 to 48 hours. Avoid pressing on the treated areas, and keep up with your daily SPF to maintain your skin's health.

Restylane FAQs

How is Restylane different from Juvéderm?

While both are made from hyaluronic acid, they have different textures and behaviors in the tissue. Restylane uses specialized gel technologies that tend to stay precisely where placed or stretch flexibly with facial expressions. Juvéderm tends to be a bit smoother and more diffusable. During your consultation, we’ll select the right formula for you.

How long does it take to see final results from Restylane?

You will notice an immediate difference in volume right after your appointment. However, as minor post-injection swelling settles over the first 7 to 14 days, the gel fully integrates into your facial tissue to reveal your true, final outcome.

Is Restylane reversible?

Yes. Because Restylane is composed of pure hyaluronic acid, it can be safely and quickly dissolved using an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you ever wish to adjust or reverse your results.
