Some Things About Restylane: I've had three restylane treatments
so
far. There are some of my observations about Restylane based on my
personal experience. Keep in mind that these may be subjective but I
decided I should share them any way.
1) To a certain degree, restylane can be moved,
molded, and manipulated up to the first hours of injections. I have
noticed that I can flatten, shape, or move the restylane. I discovered
this by accident after my first treatment. I was advised to massage the
right side of my under eye area, as it was swelling more than the left
side. At first, I thought I noticed that after some massaging, I had
actually moved and flattened the restylane from the injection area, but
I thought I was imagining it. Now after two more restylane treatments,
I know for sure, at least in my case, that I can move it and emphasize
it only to a certain extent. Now, I am not saying that you should get
restylane
2) The following paragraph should be logical, but
what woman who is on a quest for beauty is logical? When you create
volume on a certain area of your face, it affects the apperance of the
other areas, too. Let's say you have a certain area of your face where
you may have a minor flaw/hollowness/darkness which was unnoticeable to
you pre-restylane treament. Now, say you decide to have restylane
injections on your cheeks to create more volume there. Fine, now you
have fuller cheeks. But all of a sudden, you see how hollow and dark
your under eyes area is. It's like you have two negative parts of an
equation; if you make one of them positive (in this case, better
looking), the negative nows becomes more noticeable.
I am sharing this because I have personally
experienced it. It is not to say it is good or bad. Personally, I will
always want to look better if possible. But my point in sharing this is
to make you aware of what goes when you start "renovating" your face.
You want more because you want more, not entirely because you are a
vain person (well, I am, I admit it), but also because the some other
areas of your face now contrast to the restylane treated area. And, of
course, you would feel a need to improve those other areas. This "chain
reaction" is a normal reaction that you need to recognize and be aware
of and know how to manage.
I can liken the process to tweezing your eyebrows.
You can get carried away and over-pluck. Or in this case, over inject
Botox, restylane, or some other filler.
Remember, these are my own personal observations
about restylane. They may or may not all apply to you, but I hope they
have provided some insight, meaning, food for thought to people who are
considering to have restylane treatments.
