It’s natural to notice changes to your skin and appearance as you get older, but that doesn’t mean that you have to put up with things like wrinkles and sagging forever. At Palms Wellington Plastic Surgery in Wellington, FL, our Restylane Lyft treatment could be exactly what you need to look and feel young again.
What Is Restylane Lyft Used for?
Restylane is a line of fillers that can be used to restore volume to the face and get rid of fine lines and wrinkles. While it’s completely normal to see changes to the texture and appearance of your skin as you get older, these changes aren’t necessarily welcome. Getting this filler will help you maintain a more youthful appearance.
One of the fillers in this collection is Restylane Lyft. This hyaluronic acid-based filler can provide you with a range of benefits. If you have any of the following concerns, then this could be the perfect solution for you.
Loss of Volume in the Cheeks
It’s common for your skin to wrinkle as you get older. But that’s not the only change you’ll find. As you age, you’ll also notice that you have less volume in your face. One of the places where you’ll notice this most prominently is in your cheeks.
Hollow cheeks can make you look far older than you are, and can also make you look sickly and gaunt. One of the things that Lyft will do for you restores the volume in the cheek area, providing you with more definition. It will also lift sagging skin, preventing the formation of jowls.
Smile Lines
Smile lines are some of the most common wrinkles you’ll see. These are the lines that appear between your nose and your mouth, also known as nasolabial folds or laugh lines. As your skin loses volume and the proteins that help it maintain its structure, it becomes more prone to wrinkling especially around areas where there is a lot of movement.
Receiving Lyft around this area will help put that volume back. By doing this, it also helps smooth out the skin on top, reducing and even eliminating the appearance of wrinkles.
Hands
Many people focus on the face alone when it comes to common signs of aging. But wrinkles and loss of volume happen all over your body, especially in areas where there is a lot of movement. Your hands do a lot throughout the day, so it makes sense to see a significant amount of wrinkling and other signs of aging there.
One of the major benefits of Lyft is that it doesn’t just target your face. It’s also a highly effective way of treating wrinkles and loss of volume in your hands, getting rid of wrinkles, and helping you look much younger.
What Is Restylane Lyft?
This dermal filler is made with the main ingredient hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a sugar that occurs naturally. In fact, you can find it in various parts of your own body, including already in your skin. This chemical does several things, including keeping your skin hydrated and providing it with volume.
Lyft offers a non-invasive, highly effective way of getting rid of wrinkles, adding more volume to the face and hands, and helping you look overall younger.
How Does It Work?
This filler is applied to your targeted areas using a very fine and precise needle. As soon as it’s injected into the skin, Lyft helps you in a few first. First, it fills out the space beneath your skin, tightening and smoothing out the skin in the areas where it’s been injected. The hyaluronic acid will also stimulate your skin’s production of collagen, which helps maintain its structure.
Finally, the other thing that hyaluronic acid does is maintain hydration. This is important for your skin’s overall health. It provides a protective barrier and keeps your skin looking healthy and bright instead of dry and dull.

We will request that you avoid certain things to help prevent bruising from forming around the injection sites. You’ll need to stop drinking alcohol and smoking in the 24 to 48 hours before your injections. During the week before your appointment, we will ask that you not take any of the following:

We will then apply small amounts of the product in various locations using strategic injections. You should not feel more than a small pinch during the treatment process. Your entire treatment will be done quickly. You may be able to leave our office in as little as 15 minutes.

Avoid any activity that could make you sweat. You should also avoid exposure to direct sunlight. For the next few days, you’ll need to continue avoiding alcohol and tobacco. Other than that, you’ll be able to return to your busy life immediately after your treatment is complete with minimal healing time required.
