  • Restylane fillers are hyaluronic acid-based injectable treatments designed to restore volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They offer a natural-looking solution for facial rejuvenation, including areas like the lips, cheeks, and under-eye hollows. Restylane is popular for its versatility, safety, and long-lasting results.

  • Restylane fillers are suitable for a wide range of individuals who wish to address signs of aging, facial volume loss, or facial contouring. The ideal candidate is someone who:

    • Is in good overall health

    • Wants to address wrinkles, fine lines, or volume loss

    • Is looking for non-surgical facial rejuvenation

    • Desires natural-looking results with minimal downtime

    • Has realistic expectations about the outcome

  • There are certain individuals who may not be good candidates for Restylane treatment. These include:

    • Individuals who are allergic to hyaluronic acid or any of the ingredients in the filler

    • Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding

    • People with a history of severe allergic reactions or anaphylaxis

    • Individuals with active skin infections, inflammation, or other skin conditions at the treatment site

    Dr. Robert Schwarcz will conduct a thorough consultation to determine if Restylane fillers are the right choice for you and customize a treatment plan based on your needs and aesthetic goals.

  • We carry a wide range of Restylane fillers, each designed for specific aesthetic goals:

    • Restylane-L: This versatile filler is ideal for restoring facial volume and smoothing moderate to severe wrinkles and folds, especially around the mouth and nose.

    • Restylane Eyelight: Specifically formulated for delicate areas around the eyes, Eyelight targets under-eye hollows and fine lines to create a refreshed, bright-eyed appearance.

    • Restylane Lyft: Perfect for lifting and adding volume to the cheeks and mid-face, Lyft is also effective for smoothing deep wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth.

    • Restylane Kysse: Designed for the lips, Kysse enhances lip volume, smooths lines, and improves lip texture for a natural, youthful look.

    • Restylane Contour: Ideal for restoring volume to the cheeks, Contour enhances the natural contours of your face, giving a more youthful, lifted appearance.

    • Restylane Defyne: Targeting deep laugh lines and nasolabial folds, Defyne provides long-lasting results that help maintain natural facial expressions.

    • Restylane Refyne: Refyne is designed for the treatment of moderate laugh lines and facial wrinkles while maintaining your facial expressions and natural appearance.

    The Restylane filler procedure is quick and minimally invasive, typically lasting between 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. Here’s what you can expect during your appointment at Dr. Schwarcz’s Manhattan office:

    1. Consultation: Dr. Schwarcz will discuss your goals, examine your facial features, and determine the best Restylane product to address your concerns.

    2. Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort. Some Restylane products also contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic, to ensure a more comfortable experience.

    3. Injection: Dr. Schwarcz will inject the filler into the targeted areas with a fine needle. The precise technique helps ensure that the results look natural.

    4. Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, you will be given aftercare instructions to help maintain your results and ensure the best healing process.

    Restylane fillers provide immediate results, with the skin looking fuller, smoother, and more youthful right after treatment.


  • One of the advantages of Restylane fillers is minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their regular activities shortly after their treatment. However, some redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site is common and typically subsides within a few days. Here’s what you can expect during recovery:

    • First 24 hours: Mild swelling or bruising may occur, which usually resolves within a day or two.

    • 1-2 weeks: Any remaining swelling or tenderness will continue to subside, and you’ll start to see the final results of your treatment.

    • Avoid strenuous activity: It’s advised to avoid intense physical activity, alcohol, or excessive heat (such as saunas or hot tubs) for the first 24-48 hours.

    Most patients report minimal discomfort, and the results are long-lasting, typically lasting 6-12 months, depending on the area treated and the specific Restylane product used.
