Restylane is a trusted hyaluronic acid filler used to correct fine lines, restore volume, and define facial contours. Formulated with smooth, flexible gels, the Restylane family of products can be selected and precisely placed to enhance specific areas of the face—from softening smile lines to subtly shaping the lips or replenishing midface volume.
At the practice of Beverly Friedlander MD in Short Hills, New Jersey, Restylane is a go-to option for patients seeking balanced, flexible results that move naturally with expression. With over 25 years of experience in aesthetic medicine, Dr. Bev offers customized Restylane treatments tailored to each patient’s facial structure and long-term skin health.
What Restylane Treats
Restylane is a family of injectable fillers designed to improve multiple signs of aging and restore youthful structure. Dr. Bev uses different formulations depending on the treatment area and the level of correction needed.
Restylane is commonly used for:
- Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
- Tear troughs (under-eye hollows)
- Lip enhancement and definition
- Cheek contour and midface volume
- Chin shaping
- Vertical lip lines
Each product is designed for a specific use—some are soft and flexible for delicate areas, while others are more robust to lift and sculpt.

What to Expect
Restylane treatments are performed in-office and usually take under an hour. Dr. Bev begins with a consultation to determine the right Restylane product and injection technique for your features. A topical anesthetic is applied before treatment, and the filler itself contains lidocaine to increase comfort.
After your session:
- You may have mild swelling or bruising for a few days
- Results are visible immediately and continue to settle over 1–2 weeks
- Results generally last 6 to 18 months depending on the area treated and the specific product used
Many patients maintain results with periodic touch-ups or combine Restylane with other injectables such as Botox or Sculptra.
