What is Restylane Contour?
Restylane Contour® is a dermal filler injected under the (facial) skin. Once in place, it helps restore volume of your midface. Restylane Contour may also be used to increase fullness of your cheeks.
Restylane Contour is made out of hyaluronic acid (HA) ‐ a naturally occurring sugar, found in the body that gives the skin moisture, volume and elasticity – and a small amount of lidocaine, which is a commonly used local anesthetic to numb the skin. Restylane Contour is crosslinked with BDDE, an ingredient that helps form a network of HA, to provide a gel filler that lasts longer at the treatment site.
