About Restylane®
If you are looking for a non-surgical treatment for wrinkles and age-related volume loss, Restylane® may be the ideal solution. This cosmetic injectable provides immediate rejuvenation with little to no downtime. At Semel Vision Care & Aesthetics, we offer customized Restylane® treatments in El Segundo designed to refresh your appearance while preserving your natural facial expressions.
What Is Restylane®?
Restylane® is a family of FDA-approved dermal fillers made with hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the body that helps keep skin hydrated, smooth, and elastic. As HA levels decline with age, the skin gradually loses volume and structure, leading to wrinkles, folds, and hollowed areas.
When injected, Restylane® works by attracting and holding moisture beneath the skin’s surface. This restores lost volume, softens lines, and refines facial contours. Because Restylane® is available in multiple formulations, treatments can be tailored to address concerns throughout the face, from delicate areas like the lips and under-eyes to areas that require more structural support, such as the cheeks.

What to Expect During Your Treatment
A typical Restylane® appointment at our El Segundo office takes about 15 to 30 minutes. After cleansing the treatment area, Dr. Semel will identify the optimal injection sites for achieving your desired results. She will then administer the injections with an ultrafine needle. While patients often report feeling mild pressure or pinching during the injections, Restylane® treatments are generally well-tolerated.
What to Expect After Restylane® Injections
There is little to no downtime after Restylane®. You can return to most daily activities right away but should avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and exposing the treatment area to sunlight and UV lamps for the first 24 hours. Mild swelling, redness, tenderness, or bruising at the injection sites can occur. These effects usually fade within a few days.
Restylane® provides immediate volume enhancement. The full effect of your procedure can be anticipated within one to two weeks.
Restylane® FAQs
How much does Restylane® cost in El Segundo?
The cost of your procedure depends on the specific Restylane® product used and the amount needed to achieve your cosmetic goals. Dr. Semel will provide a personalized treatment plan and clear pricing details during your consultation.
How long does Restylane® last?
Results vary based on the area treated, the product used, and your individual metabolism. Many patients enjoy results lasting from 6 months up to 18 months.
Who is a good candidate for Restylane®?
Healthy adults who want to soften lines, restore volume, or enhance facial features without surgery are often good candidates. During your consultation, Dr. Semel will review your medical history and assess your concerns to determine if Restylane® is right for you.
What is the difference between Restylane® and Radiesse®?
Restylane® is a hyaluronic acid filler that focuses on hydration, flexibility, and soft volume. Radiesse® is a biostimulatory filler that provides more structural support and stimulates collagen production. Restylane® is often preferred for lips, under-eye areas, and fine lines, while Radiesse® is typically used for deeper folds and contouring.
Can Restylane® be combined with BOTOX®?
Yes. Many patients achieve the best results by combining Restylane® for volume restoration with BOTOX® to relax expression-related wrinkles. This approach can create a smoother, more youthful appearance without surgery.
