Rejuvenate your Cheeks
Restylane Contour in Millburn, NJ
Your cheeks are just as active as other areas of your face – they move when you smile or frown. Over time, they also lose elasticity and volume, while beginning to sag and look hollow, which can lead to an aged appearance. Restylane® Contour, the newest hyaluronic acid dermal filler in the Restylane line, can work to change the course of time by turning up the volume and restoring elasticity, while preserving your natural facial movement.
What Does Restylane Contour Treat?
Restylane Contour is an injectable gel that boosts the volume in your cheeks and eliminates hollowing that is common with the aging process. Volume depletion can lead to a flatter midface and even jowl formation as tissue starts to move downward toward the jawline. By restoring the cheek area, we can produce a subtle lift to the face that takes years off your appearance.
Restylane Contour is primarily used to augment the midface and is not typically injected into other areas of the face.
What are the Benefits of Restylane Contour?
Restylane Contour is an excellent cosmetic dermatology treatment to rejuvenate your appearance. The procedure restores volume, increases fullness, and provides contouring and definition that may have been lost as you age.
Additional benefits of Restylane Contour include:
- Natural look
- Refreshed, dynamic appearance
- Non-invasive procedure
- Minimal to no downtime
What are Hyaluronic Acid Fillers?
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a natural component of connective tissue produced by the body. It retains moisture well and is used to create dermal fillers like Restylane Contour. HA restores lost support in the underlying dermal structure to smooth away some lines and wrinkles and restore volume to strategic areas of the face that tend to become hollow over time.
Restylane Contour Alternatives
Restylane Contour is not the only dermal filler available from Millburn Laser Center in New Jersey. Other options are possible based on your specific needs and goals. Your board-certified dermatologist will choose the best option, using Restylane Contour or one of the following alternatives:
- Restylane Lyft – This dermal filler boosts volume in the midface, but is also beneficial for restoring a youthful appearance to the hands.
- Restylane Refyne and Defyne – These fillers smooth out lines, folds and wrinkles. Superficial lines can be addressed by Restylane Refyne, while Defyne adds volume to deeper folds in the skin. The result is the overall reduction in the lines on your face, but with a natural look that still allows your face to make dynamic expressions.
- Restylane Kysse – This innovative lip filler features a smooth consistency that provides natural plumping. Results are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying improvements for up to one year.
What To Expect From
from Your Restylane Contour Procedure?
Most patients are very excited about the results of their Restylane Contour procedure, as they are able to see improvement soon after their treatment. The procedure is minimally-invasive, so there is little to no downtime afterward. The procedure is completed with very fine needles and topical anesthetic is an option for patients worried about discomfort during their session.
After your procedure, your dermatologist will provide basic steps to ensure your procedure is successful. Instructions include not touching the treated area for 6 hours following the injections, avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours, and avoiding certain medications for a few days that may increase bleeding or bruising at the injection site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is Restylane Contour safe?
A: Restylane Contour is formulated by Galderma Laboratories and is approved by the FDA for enhancing the midface. Consult with your dermatologist before choosing a dermal filler, and always make sure you choose a board-certified dermatologist for any dermal filler procedure.
Q: Does Restylane Contour hurt?
A: Most patients find the injections to be relatively comfortable. The filler includes an anesthetic that minimizes discomfort and topical numbing is available upon request. You may feel some tenderness after the procedure, but that should subside within 24 hours.
Q: How Long Do Results Last?
A: The results of Restylane Contour have been reported to last up to one year after treatment. You may see results immediately, and your dermatologist will advise you on how often to follow-up for subsequent treatments.
Q: Do dermal fillers treat all wrinkles?
A: Dermal fillers treat static wrinkles on the face commonly attributed to collagen depletion and the aging process. Dynamic wrinkles, lines that are caused by repeated facial expressions, are usually better managed by neuromodulators like Botox. These injectable treatments work by relaxing the facial muscles that form the wrinkles, smoothing away the lines in the process.
Q: Are There Any Side Effects?
A: Because Restylane Contour is an injectable treatment, you may experience some mild side effects:
- Redness
- Tenderness
- Swelling or bruising
- Itching
Side effects are usually very mild and subside within a few hours to a few days. Patients can return to their regular activities immediately following the procedure.
Q: How Long is Recovery?
A: Most patients return to normal routines immediately after treatment. Consult with your physician regarding any strenuous activities following your procedure.
Q: Will My Face Look And Feel Unnatural?
A: Restylane Contour is formulated with hyaluronic acid, which is a normal component of your connective tissue. When administered correctly, the filler is designed to produce natural improvement in the midface so others should not notice that you had a cosmetic treatment.
Q: When Should I Start Getting Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
A: There is no right or wrong age to start receiving Botox, Dysport, Xeomin or Jeuveau treatments. What is important is that the patient should be evaluated by a licensed and trained doctor prior to treatment.
Q: How Many Sessions Will I Need?
A: Every patient has a different goal with their injectable treatment. However, most patients enjoy full improvement after a single treatment session. Some patients might choose to return for some additional filler a few weeks after their first appointment to further enhance their results.
Q: Who is a good candidate for Restylane Contour?
A: Restylane Contour is approved for both men and women over the age of 21. The hyaluronic acid dermal filler is appropriate for any patient who would like to boost volume in the midface or restore a more youthful facial contour.
