What is Restylane® Defyne?
Restylane® Defyne is a hyaluronic acid filler created to soften the appearance of moderate to severe nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Created with XpresHAn technology, Restylane® Defyne is created to move with the skin so patients can retain the ability to make natural-looking facial expressions and movements.
Restylane® Defyne also contains a small amount of lidocaine, so ensure patient’s comfort during injections. A topical anesthetic can also be applied if desired. Non-surgical treatments can take anywhere from 20-40 minutes to complete, depending on the size of the treatment area.
Who is a Good Candidate?
Restylane® Defyne is FDA-approved for use in adults ages 21 and older. Individuals who wish to smooth their facial lines and wrinkles can often benefit from this filler. Patients who wish to eliminate their marionette lines and nasolabial folds without undergoing surgery often choose to undergo Defyne treatments.
