Restylane ® (inc Emervel Collection)

This brand has a lot of support from practitioners and is currently one of the most popular dermal fillers used in the U.K..

Since the manufacturer, Q-Med, (now part of Galderma) launched Restylane® in 1996 it is estimated that over 15 million treatments have been carried out worldwide (data as at 2013). The product range has since been to of differing sizes of gel particle specifically designed for use in certain areas of the face.

As of 2009, some of the product range is available with the addition of 0.3% lidocaine (Restylane® and Restylane® Perlane Lidocaine) for improved patient comfort.

In 2016, the range of hyaluronic acid-based fillers, also from Galderma, was integrated into their Restylane range to create one large range of hyaluronic acid fillers NASHA Technology and Optimal Balance into one product brand. This meant that EMERVEL ceased as a brand name and all product were renamed.

The product brand also include . 

Restylane® Eyelight™ was released in 2022 to combat tired-looking eyes. When we lose (or simply lack) volume in the tear trough area, it gives rise to a hollowness, a groove, under the eyes. The groove deflects the light and casts shadows onto the skin, leading to dark under-eye shadows that make us look tired and fatigued. Using NASHA® technology, Restylane® Eyelight™ treats the root cause of the problem – the lack of volume – by filling up the groove, making the area smooth again, with reduced hollowness, so that light can reflect differently from the skin. 

Non-animal stabilised hyaluronic acid (NASHA) gel.

By bacterial fermentation from streptococci bacteria.
