What to Expect When Getting Restylane: Before, During, and After

If you’re considering Restylane fillers but aren’t sure what the process involves, you’re not alone.
Many first-timers have questions about what to expect before, during, and after the treatment.
Here’s a simple guide to walk you through the entire journey so you can feel confident and
prepared.

Before Your Restylane Appointment

The first step is a consultation. At Miss Dana Aesthetics, we’ll discuss your goals, assess your
skin, and recommend the best type of Restylane filler for you. You’ll also review your medical
history to ensure you’re a good candidate.

Tip: Avoid blood thinners like aspirin or ibuprofen a few days before your appointment to reduce
the risk of bruising.

During the Treatment

The procedure itself is quick and relatively painless. Restylane fillers contain lidocaine, a
numbing agent that helps minimize discomfort. Most appointments take less than 45 minutes.
Using a very fine needle, Dana will inject the filler into targeted areas—commonly the cheeks,
lips, or lines around the nose and mouth. You might feel a small pinch or pressure, but it’s
generally well-tolerated.

Aftercare and Recovery

Immediately after treatment, you may experience mild swelling, redness, or bruising. These
effects are normal and usually subside within a few days. You can return to most daily activities
right away.

Tips for best results:
● Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and sun exposure for 24 hours.
● Don’t rub or massage the treated areas.

How Long Do Results Last?

Restylane results are visible immediately and can last 6 to 12 months, depending on the area
treated and your body’s metabolism.

Restylane offers a non-surgical solution to enhance your natural beauty with minimal downtime.
