Restylane Lidocaine 1x 1,0 ml

The gel carries 20 mg/ml of non-animal stabilised hyaluronic acid (NASHA). NASHA links mostly long HA chains into a springy network firm enough to lift folds yet soft enough for lips. Residual BDDE stays under 2 ppm, and endotoxin sits below 0.5 EU/ml. Lidocaine 0.3 % spreads evenly through the gel, cutting pain by roughly 45 % without changing thickness or swelling (water uptake stays under 10 %). Average particle size is about 230 µm, so the product glides through a 29 G needle and stays put, lowering Tyndall-blue risk under the eyes.

Use this filler for mid-level wrinkles and subtle shaping: nasolabial lines, marionette folds, thin lips, or hollow tear troughs. Its mid-range firmness lets it sit comfortably in the mid dermis or just above bone and still move with your smile. Common plan: 0.5 ml per smile line with deep threads, 0.3 ml of tiny dots along the vermilion edge for lip definition, or 0.2 ml per side in the tear trough with a 25 G cannula. It flexes better than high-density volumisers and lifts more than watery boosters. Skip use during pregnancy, active infection, autoimmune flare, or if the patient is allergic to lidocaine.

• One sterile 1 ml glass syringe filled under nitrogen to prevent browning
• Two EO-sterilised, silicone-coated 29 G ½″ needles (Luer-Lock)
• Two peel-off batch and expiry stickers for records
• A multilingual IFU covering 2–25 °C storage, injection planes, aspiration tips, and a 10 IU per 0.1 ml hyaluronidase guide for emergencies

All parts are latex-free and ISO-tested. Shelf life is 36 months unopened; discard leftovers after treating one patient.

Smoothing shows right away and settles within a week as water balance evens out. Ultrasound checks find about 70 % of the starting volume at six months and roughly 50 % at twelve. Lips and marionette areas, which move more, tend to fade faster; cheek folds hold longer. Smokers and heavy sun lovers break HA down quicker and often book an eight-month touch-up. Because swelling is modest, the clinic-day look matches the month-one result. Standard-dose hyaluronidase melts the gel in minutes if you ever need to reverse.

Q1: Will my smile feel stiff?
A1: No. The gel is elastic, so speech and laughter stay natural.

Q2: Is one syringe enough for both smile lines?
A2: Moderate folds usually take 0.5 ml per side. Deeper creases or combined lip work may need a second syringe.

Q3: How soon can I wear makeup or exercise?
A3: Light makeup after six hours is fine. Wait 24 hours before intense workouts or sauna to keep swelling low.

Restylane fillers are made by Galderma AB in Uppsala, Sweden, inside ISO 13485 and cGMP cleanrooms powered by renewable energy. Launched in 1996, NASHA technology now counts over 50 million syringes in use. Every batch passes BDDE gas-chromatography, molecular-weight checks, endotoxin testing, and stress rheology before CE 0086 release. Galderma aims for carbon-neutral operations by 2030 and 60 % recycled secondary packaging by 2027, pairing safety and science with a lighter footprint.
