Restylane Lyft Lidocaine 1x 1,0 ml

Restylane Lyft with Lidocaine carries 20 mg/ml of non-animal hyaluronic acid, lightly cross-linked under Galderma’s NASHA™ process. BDDE residue stays below 2 ppm, and endotoxin under 0.5 EU/ml. Its high elastic strength (about 550 Pa) means it stands firm against gravity yet spreads just enough for smooth edges. A built-in 0.3 % lidocaine cuts needle pain by around 40 % without changing pH (about 7.0). Particle sizes hover at 250–300 µm—small enough for a 27-gauge needle but big enough to stay put once placed. CE-0086 and FDA approvals confirm safety and sterility. Deep-plane placement lets HA pull in up to 1,000 times its weight in water for instant lift, while mild stretch on nearby cells nudges them to make fresh collagen for longer-term support.

Lyft is a “scaffolding” filler—great for cheeks that have flattened, folds that sit deeper than grade 3, or a chin that needs definition. Just 0.5 ml per cheek can restore the ogee curve; tiny boluses along the jaw sharpen angles without bulk. Compared with calcium hydroxyapatite, Lyft is fully reversible; compared with Voluma, its higher G′ gives crisper bone definition—ideal for a stronger jawline. Low water uptake also makes it kinder in patients who swell easily, such as thyroid cases. Standard HA cautions apply: skip during infection, pregnancy, autoimmune flares, or if allergic to lidocaine. Many injectors pair Lyft for structure, then layer a softer gel like Refyne over fine perioral lines for a seamless finish.

The box holds one nitrogen-filled 1 ml glass syringe, two EO-sterilised 27 G × ½″ needles, and two peel-off lot/expiry labels to satisfy EU trace rules. Barrel marks every 0.1 ml help micro-dosing, and a low-friction stopper makes deep-plane extrusion steady. A multilingual leaflet covers storage (2–25 °C), planes, aspiration tips, and on-the-spot hyaluronidase instructions. Everything is latex-free and arrives in an FSC-certified carton. Shelf life unopened: 36 months; discard leftovers after first use.

Volume shows right away and settles in a week. Ultrasound data find about 80 % of lift still present at six months and roughly 60 % at 15. Chin and jawline—areas that move less—often keep shape longest; mouth-corner folds may want a nine-month top-up. Biopsies at three months show collagen up by 25 % near the gel, so firmness lingers even as HA fades. Smokers and heavy-sun clients may need eight-month boosters. If correction needs tweaking, 10 IU hyaluronidase per 0.1 ml melts Lyft quickly.

Q1: How many syringes for a cheek lift?
A1: Most people need about 1 ml per side; subtle softening might use just 0.5 ml.

Q2: Can I mix Lyft with PDO threads?
A2: Yes. Place threads first for lift, then add Lyft two weeks later to reinforce volume.

Q3: When can I work out?
A3: Light exercise the next day is okay; hold off on heavy lifting or head-down yoga for 48 hours.

Restylane Lyft comes from Galderma AB in Uppsala, Sweden, where ISO 13485 cleanrooms run on 100 % renewable energy. NASHA launched in 1996; Lyft (once called Perlane) became the high-support star, earning FDA clearance in 2013. Each batch passes BDDE gas chromatography, molecular-weight checks, and endotoxin tests before release. Galderma’s 2030 plan calls for carbon-neutral production and 60 % recycled packaging. With more than 50 million syringes used worldwide, Lyft remains the go-to “workhorse” filler for strong, natural-looking structure.
