Restylane and Radiance

Restylane

Restylane is a safe, natural, long-lasting wrinkle filler that has been used in Canada and Europe for the last decade, and has just recently been approved for use in the United States. Restylane is a smooth, clear gel that "flows" when it is injected and goes in very smoothly, and has been shown to maintain its results for six to 12 months. Highly mobile areas like the lips tend to require at least a touch-up treatment after about six months. Areas where there is less movement may only require additional treatment after 12 months. No skin test is required prior to treatment. Risk of allergic reaction is rare.

Radiance

Similar to Restylane, Radiance is also a soft filler. While it is reported to last for 2-5 years, there can be some lumping or clumping, and small microspheres may move to other areas of the body. No skin test is required before treatment. Little risk of allergic reaction.

I feel the care I received from you and your staff was exceptional, especially the after surgery follow-up care. Your office really impressed me, as did yourself, when only a few hours after my return home from surgery, I received a phone call from you inquiring how I was doing. I hadn't expected your call, but I must say it made me feel very secure, and that you cared. Then your staff continued to call me for the next few days to inquire as to how I was doing. I can only say you are the only doctor I would want to have performing cosmetic surgery on me, as you have instilled my total confidence in your care.

I would like to take this time to thank your staff for the warm feeling that is left from this experience due to the contact I had with them. I wold also like you to know how happy I am about the results. Your skill and experience as a surgeon shows in the fact that I can barely see the scars and that I have full sensitivity. Thank you.
