Dermal fillers are one of the most sought-after solutions for busy people who want to look younger and reverse the signs of aging with minimal downtime and discomfort. Dr. Stephanie Teotia is proud to offer Restylane to her patients in the Dallas area.

The active ingredient in the Restylane product family is hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your skin. When applied strategically by a skilled practitioner, Restylane restores skin’s moisture to add volume, minimize wrinkles, and rejuvenate your appearance. While the effects are subtle and natural-looking, most people notice an immediate improvement.
Restylane’s smooth gel formula can correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines. Hyaluronic acid injections improve your skin’s moisture barrier, while simultaneously stimulating your body to produce new collagen and elastin for smooth, resilient skin.
Restylane, which earned FDA approval in 2003, has a high success and satisfaction rate. By using tiny needles to introduce precise amounts of Restylane gel, Dr. Teotia can plump areas that have lost volume and begun to look gaunt or hollow, including your cheeks, lips, undereye area, and the backs of your hands.
While there is no ideal age for Restylane injections, younger patients with less advanced aging may choose this solution to address mild to moderate wrinkles and volume loss, delaying the need for more invasive approaches, such as a facelift.
Patients with on-the-go lifestyles who are not ready to commit to a recovery process may also prefer Restylane, since the in-office procedure allows people to resume most daily activities immediately after their appointment.
You should not use Restylane if:
Dr. Teotia believes during every aspect of your aesthetic journey, trust and communication are essential. When you choose to partner with Dr. Teotia, you can expect a personalized approach from a specialist who genuinely has your best interest in mind. She invites you to meet with her and our friendly, all-female team to learn more about what we can do for you.
Convenience has significantly contributed to the increasing popularity of Restylane and other dermal fillers. Dr. Teotia performs the injections during a quick in-office procedure. Directly after your appointment, you can apply makeup and resume your usual day-to-day schedule, including going to work.
Biocompatible fillers like Restylane offer low risks and high rewards. Typical effects of Restylane are mild, including minor swelling, bruising, redness, discomfort, and itching. Arnica Montana may be used to reduce bruising or swelling. These issues should resolve themselves within a few days of your procedure, if not sooner. If desired, you can use ice packs to help manage any swelling you experience.
Restylane results are not permanent—your body will gradually absorb the filler over time. However, many patients report their improved look lasts for up to a year, and it is easy to maintain your appearance with periodic touch-up treatments.
Restylane injections are a quick in-office procedure that typically takes less than an hour, depending on your concerns. Here’s what you can expect during your visit.
The Restylane product line includes several different formulations to meet different needs. During an in-person consultation at our Flower Mound office, you can talk with Dr. Teotia to learn more about your options and which combination of Restylane products is best for resolving your specific cosmetic concerns.
Your body will gradually absorb the hyaluronic acid particles. However, because Restylane bonds with water, many patients experience results that last as long as a year after their treatment.
Many patients remark on how much better they look immediately after receiving treatment. However, the product will settle in after a couple of days, so it often looks even better a day or two later.
Some Restylane products contain lidocaine, a mild anesthetic. If you worry about discomfort, we can offer you a topical anesthetic cream to numb the area. You can also use ice packs immediately after your treatment to ease any pain.
No. If you choose, you can return to work right after your appointment. We do, however, suggest avoiding vigorous exercise for at least 24 hours after the procedure.
As with all cosmetic procedures, the decision to choose Restylane filler treatments is profoundly personal, and you should only pursue it after carefully considering your desired objectives and talking with a board-certified plastic surgeon.
If you have decided to take the next step in exploring Restylane injections, we invite you to schedule a private consultation with Dr. Teotia so you can discuss your aesthetic goals in more depth. Contact our office today to book your appointment.
