Buying Restylane Online and Injecting Yourself?
Hello, Can and should i buy restylane injections online and is it safe to inject yourself with instructed safety percautions
Self-injecting Restylane is a terrible idea
I was recently interviewed by a major newspaper to discuss patients that have attempted this and come to me with a myriad of problems. This is a very bad idea for multiple reasons including not knowing what you're getting (you need a licence to purchase FDA approved injectables in the US), not being trained, not being able to properly anesthetize yourself during the procedure with local anesthesia. There are a long list of reasons this is a terrible idea.
Restylane is a family of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers produced by Galderma using NASHA technology. The product line includes Restylane-L for lips and facial wrinkles, Lyft for cheeks and hands, Refyne and Defyne for nasolabial folds and marionette lines, and Kysse for lip augmentation. Each formulation has specific gel properties optimized for different tissue depths and treatment areas.
