Restylane Before & After
How It Works
It all starts with a personal consultation. We’ll discuss your concerns and goals, and we’ll examine your treatment area(s). If Restylane in Foxborough offers the best results, we’ll schedule your appointment.
By carefully injecting Restylane filler into the treatment area(s), your expert injector can restore lost volume, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin health, and generally turn back the clock—all without surgery.

Let our team help you on your aesthetic journey!
The entire procedure for Restylane in Foxborough takes 45 minutes to an hour to complete. The length of the session depends on the specifics of your treatment area. Our expert injector will place the Restylane product according to a specific pattern designed to create your ideal results. Most Dream Spa Medical patients find any discomfort associated with the process to be quite tolerable. If you have heightened sensitivities, we can help by applying a topical numbing cream prior to treatment. The process is as quick as it is effective.
After your procedure, you’ll experience some temporary tenderness in the treatment area for a day or so. Most patients enjoy their results for up to 12 months. We’ll be happy to design a maintenance schedule that works with your personal routine to ensure your positive results continue for even longer!
Your body will eventually metabolize the Restylane filler, and we’ll be ready to restore your results when that time comes.
As a dermal filler, Restylane quite literally fills in lost volume, replacing lost hyaluronic acid within your skin and encouraging your dermal layers to retain more moisture. This hydrating and filling effectively smooths over fine lines and wrinkles caused by aging. It also evens out deeper folds in the face and replenishes lost volume in a lifting way that addresses sagging and drooping skin.
Restylane in Foxborough also helps enhance facial features and contours. You can add more presence to a chin, make your cheeks appear higher or more prominent, and fill in hollow spots under the eyes or in the cheeks for a more youthful appearance.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) already exists in your body. This naturally occurring substance helps provide hydration, fullness, and elasticity for your skin.
The amount of HA your body produces diminishes as you age, causing your skin to lose volume. As your skin rests closer to your muscles and loses its ability to “bounce back” after stretching, the chance for wrinkles and folds to appear increases.
Restylane dermal fillers use a clear gel formulation of HA, created with XpresHAn Technology™. It provides a soft gel texture with high flexibility to support your faces natural expression.
Restylane was the first non-animal stabilized HA dermal filler to be approved by the US FDA, and it has been used in over 55 million treatments worldwide.
Pre- & Post-Care Instructions for Restylane in Foxborough
- Women who are pregnant or nursing should not be treated with dermal fillers.
- Women who are actively trying to conceive should consult their physician prior to receiving dermal fillers.
- Please allow a minimum of 2 weeks’ time in between any vaccinations and your treatment.
- It is best to avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.) 24 to 48 hours prior to your treatment. This may increase your risk of bruising.
- If you have had dental work (including a cleaning) within the past 2 weeks, or are planning to within 2 weeks post your dermal filler treatment, we advise you to defer your treatment until the 2-week mark after your dental treatment.
- If you are actively on any prescription antibiotics or steroids, we ask that you wait 2 weeks to be treated upon completion of the medication course.
- If you are feeling under the weather or are experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms, it is best to wait until you have fully recovered to be treated.
- You may opt to take Arnica and/or Bromelain tablets for 2 weeks prior to your injections. This will assist with healing and bruising.
- If you are prone to and being treated in an area that may cause a Herpes Labialis outbreak, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best and will help to accelerate your healing time as well as enhance results.
- You may consider having at least a snack or a small meal within an hour of your appointment. Getting injected with needles can at times cause one to feel “queasy” or unwell. It always helps to have a little something in your stomach to combat those feelings. We keep juice and snack bars on hand in case you need a little pick-me-up mid-treatment!
- The treatment area will most likely feel sensitive, swollen, and tender to the touch; this may last for up to 2 weeks. If you are experiencing excessive pain, discomfort, throbbing, or excessive swelling in the treated area, please contact Dream Spa Medical immediately so that we can assess if you should be seen by our team.
- Due to the lidocaine anesthetic in the gel, you may feel numbness or tingling immediately after the procedure, which will resolve within an hour.
- If you are being treated in multiple areas or if your provider is making a heavy correction involving a lot of product, you should expect your soreness, swelling, and tenderness to be more elevated. You and your provider can discuss what will fall into the “normal” range, and you will be contacted via phone within 48 hours by your provider to check in and see how your treatment is settling.
- We advise that you take Tylenol for any discomfort for 2 weeks post-treatment. It is best to avoid any type of ibuprofen, as it may increase your risk of bruising.
- Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, sweating, and other activities that involve heat (steam/sauna) for 48 hours.
- Visible injection marks are normal as well as bruising, and these are to be expected in most cases. These will heal normally within 2 weeks. Please do not pick at the injection sites, as this may cause infection.
- Treated areas should be cared for gently when washing your face or applying products. It is best to not touch or manipulate the treated area for at least 48 hours.
- We suggest waiting a full 2 weeks before any additional treatments, such as facials, peels, laser, etc.
- Your results will develop over time as the product integrates into your existing tissue. This may take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks.
- Please do not manipulate or massage any area of treatment, unless instructed to do so by your provider. Some areas require massaging, such as the neck. You will be given clear instructions tailored to your treatment before you leave. Your provider will set up a 2 week post-procedure appointment to address any concerns or physical developments, such as bumps in the treated area. Please call Dream Spa Medical if you are unsure about any of these instructions or have any questions.
- Ice or clean, cool compresses may be used in any area of treatment immediately after, up to 48 hours post-procedure. This will help any swelling and discomfort.
- Do not apply makeup over injection points until the day after the procedure. If you need to apply something for hydration to your lips, then please use Aquaphor/Vaseline with a clean cotton tip.
- Try to sleep on your back, with your head elevated, for 1 to 2 nights.
- You may opt to take Arnica tablets or apply Arnica gel for up to 2 weeks post-treatment to assist with healing and bruising. Taking an over-the-counter antihistamine (Zyrtec, Claritin) daily may help minimize swelling.
- We advise that you should not fly on an airplane or any type of aircraft for at least 1 week post-treatment. The changes in air pressure and altitude can exacerbate or produce swelling.
Fillers are exciting and beautiful tools that help us enhance and restore your natural beauty. They are also medical treatments that should be performed by an experienced practitioner. At Dream Spa Medical, we believe that safety is of the utmost importance. For this reason, we share these extremely rare but important instances to watch out for post-treatment.
For 2 weeks following your treatment, if you are experiencing any of the following, immediately reach out to Dream Spa Medical via any communication channel available, and we will ensure that you are seen immediately.

- A rash that appears in the treated area and is accompanied by pustules or dusky discoloration of the skin.
