Skip to content Restylane® Defyne is a dermal filler injected under the (facial) skin and is for deep wrinkles that need a lift, such as the nasolabial folds (the parenthesis). Once in place, it helps smooth “smile and laugh lines” – the wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds) that may form at the sides of the nose and run down toward the corners of the mouth. Restylane® Defyne preserves the ability to have normal expression and has been shown to maintain effectiveness for the treatment of “smile and laugh lines” for up to 12 months.
Restylane® Defyne is FDA-approved for the treatment of moderate to severe, deep facial wrinkles and folds (such as nasolabial folds) by working on very deep lines with the highest level of support.
Restylane® Defyne boasts ways to deliver natural-looking results for deep, severe lines which require a lot of support:
Many individuals who come into our office are interested in learning about the latest products that can help them achieve natural-looking results. Oftentimes, they are unsure about starting with dermal fillers because they are worried about not looking natural, questioning if it’s worth the investment and generally unsure about trying fillers. The introduction of this next-generation HA dermal filler with XpresHAn Technology has the potential to change people’s mind about fillers. Patients who have been treated with injectables between the ages of 37 and 43 may be good candidates for Restylane® Defyne because they are soft gels that provide the lift they are looking for while allowing them to maintain natural expression in motion.

To ensure a safe procedure, your doctor will talk to you about your medical history to determine if you are an appropriate candidate for treatment. You should not use products within the Restylane family if:
The most commonly observed side effects are swelling, redness, pain, bruising, headache, tenderness, lump formation, and itching at the injection site. These are typically mild in severity and typically resolve in less than 7 days in nasolabial folds and less than 14 days in lips. Serious but rare side effects include delayed onset infections, recurrence of herpetic eruptions, and superficial necrosis at the injection site.
One of the risks with using this product is unintentional injection into a blood vessel. The chances of this happening are very small, but if it does happen, the complications can be serious, and may be permanent. These complications, which have been reported for facial injections, can include vision abnormalities, blindness, stroke, temporary scabs, or permanent scarring of the skin.
As with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection.
