What is Restylane?
Restylane is a family of injectable dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid — a substance your body naturally produces. Different formulations within the Restylane line are designed for specific areas of the face, from delicate under-eye hollows to sculpting the jawline and chin.

The Aera Approach
Janessa's philosophy is enhancement, not alteration. She uses advanced injection techniques — including cannula placement for under-eye treatment — to minimize bruising and deliver precise results. Every treatment begins with a detailed facial analysis to identify the most impactful areas for volume restoration.
What to Expect
A Restylane session takes 30-45 minutes. Topical numbing is applied for comfort, and most Restylane products contain lidocaine to further minimize sensation during injection. Results are immediate — you'll see the improvement before you leave the office. Some swelling is normal for 24-48 hours.
How Long Does Restylane Last?
Depending on the product and treatment area, Restylane results last 6-18 months. Lip treatments typically last 6-9 months, while cheek and jawline treatments can last up to 18 months.
