Fillers can be used not only to “fill” but also to lift and redrape the face. A skilled injector with a thorough understanding of the anatomy and science behind each filler can tailor the treatment to each patient to achieve the desired effect without leaving you looking “puffy” or having the “overfilled facial syndrome” .
The Restylane portfolio of fillers by Galderma allow treatments to be tailored to your wishes and needs – and the results are natural and pleasing to eye.

HOW
The RESTYLANE portfolio by Galderma offers the world’s most diverse range of fillers by using two complementary gel technologies, the original non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid (NASHA™) process and Optimal Balance Technology™ (OBT™). These technologies provide personalized, natural-looking results which deliver long-term satisfaction and leave individuals filled with confidence
Galderma fillers is a crystal clear gel that is injected into the skin (or for some treatments just under) in small amounts to restore volume and structure. It is based on hyaluronic acid, similar to the body’s own hyaluronic acid. The hyaluronic acid is non-animal which means that no skin tests are needed and that there is a minimal risk of allergic or hypersensitive reactions.
In its natural form in the body, hyaluronic acid lasts just a few days. Therefore, stabilization with NASHA technology is necessary to give long-lasting results yet with superior tissue biocompatibility. The final result of these efforts is a safe beauty product that is well accepted by the body, with long-lasting aesthetic results.
Dr Chew is a recognized trainer for Restylane products and a typical procedure would take about 30-mins which includes about 20-mins of waiting for the topical anaesthetic to work.
The RESTYLANE portfolio of products includes RESTYLANE, RESTYLANE LYFT, RESTYLANE KYSSE, RESTYLANE VOLYME, RESTYLANE DEFYNE, RESTYLANE REFYNE, RESTYLANE EYELIGHT and RESTYLANE SKINBOOSTERS.
Dr Chew chooses to use the Restylane range of fillers for the following indications:
- Facial Contouring
- Nose / Chin Augmentation
- Cheek Volumisation (combined with Restylane Defyne / Volyme)
- Tear Trough / Dark Eye Circles
- Lip Augmentation (combined with Restylane KYSSE )
- SkinBoosters (combined with Vital and Vital Light)
RESULTS
The results are long-lasting, without being permanent, giving you the freedom of choice to maintain the effect. This is achieved by using hyaluronic acid with a high degree of purity and stabilization process using the NASHA technology.
1 treatment will generally last 6 to 12 months and with only 1 re-treatment, the effect has in a recent clinical study been shown to last up to 18 months. To maintain the results in the lips, a re-treatment is usually needed within 6 months.
POST TREATMENT
As treatment is non-surgical, there is a minimum of downtime so you can get on with living life to the full. There is hardly any downtime associated with this procedure and most clients can resume normal activities on the same day.
