Restylane Fillers | Pine Belt Dermatology

Juvederm is one of the more popular filler brands out there but another filler brand that has begun to peak the interest of many patients is that of Restylane fillers. Restylane has been around since being FDA approved in 2003. Restylane fillers are non-surgical, FDA-approved, fillers used to instantly smooth away moderate to severe wrinkles like smile lines (the lines from your nose to the corners of your mouth) as well as plump the lips and restore lost volume for a fresher, more youthful appearance. They are a clear, non-animal-based, biodegradable gel substance composed of hyaluronic acid, which is a substance that naturally exists in the body. The word "acid" may sound scary; however, hyaluronic acid isn't harsh or damaging at all, in fact it's the opposite. For smoothing wrinkles, sculpting lips, and improving other facial features, Restylane injections are a growing favorite.

Restylane is administered at the dermatology office and is ideal for patients who are 35-60 years of age and want to restore that youthful glow to their skin. Results are fully evident within one week. Restylane has a success rate for reducing or eliminating deep wrinkles that cannot be accomplished with other procedures such as chemical peels or microdermabrasion. Restylane not only fills in wrinkles, but also moisture and lubrication to the skin, so the skin not only looks younger but feels younger as well. It gives patients a very natural and healthy look! Restylane requires only a few injections and no incisions or removal of tissue, so the risk of complications is quite low. Since Restylane treatments require no incisions and involves a very easy recovery process, it is very rare for a potential patient to be excluded for medical reasons, however all of this will be discussed when you schedule a consultation with either Kristen or myself.

So, a common question I get when I mention this product is what areas of the face can be treated with Restylane? Virtually any area of facial skin can be treated with one of the various Restylane dermal fillers offered at Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center. Creases, deep folds, and light wrinkles can all be lessened through the use of Restylane. Laugh lines and fine mouth lines are among the most popular targets for the injections. Among other popular applications of Restylane is its use as a lip filler, where it can enhance volume and shape for months after treatment. In short, any area of the face that lacks volume, shape, or smoothness can experience improvement through Restylane injections.

Restylane Products We Offer, What They Do, & What It Cost:

Restylane Defyne: As you age, your skin loses elasticity and the lines that run from the sides of the nose toward the corners of the mouth (nasolabial folds) and the lines that run from the corner of your mouth toward the chin (marionette lines) become more pronounced. Restylane Defyne is able to correct these deepened lines. Defyne is not only able to smooth these lines out but can also help support natural and healthy facial expressions. You may want to lose those aging lines but not that pretty smile! Interestingly, of patients surveyed by Restylane 97% were satisfied with the results, 97% would have another Defyne treatment done, and 95% would recommend the Defyne product to a friend. That sounds like a pretty awesome product!

Restylane Defyne at PBD costs $625 per syringe.

Restylane Refyne: similar to the product listed above this Restylane filler is designed to help soften laugh lines (nasolabial folds and marionette lines). This can help you restore a more natural look to your face while maintaining your facial expressions. Restylane Refyne is also is also designed to help support your natural expression, giving the patient real-life results that help maintain natural movement when you're smiling, frowning, laughing and even puckering up.

Restylane Lyft: Over time, the natural fat begins to deteriorate, resulting in sagging skin, more prominent wrinkles and a reduction of volume. Restylane Lyft is approved by the FDA to correct volume deficit in the backs of the hands, for cheek augmentation and correction of age-related midface contour deficiencies in patients over the age of 21. This is in addition to treating moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as smile lines. Through nonsurgical injections, Lyft is specifically designed to add fullness to the cheeks, midface area, and the backs of the hands which can result in a more natural-looking, youthful appearance.

Restylane Silk: The lips and the lines around the mouth, like other areas of the face, show signs of aging as you get older. This often results in lip thinning, lost shape and an increase in vertical lines above the lip. Restylane Silk is designed specifically to provide natural-looking results in these particular areas by using smaller, smoother hyaluronic acid particles than those used in other Restylane filler products. This is a very great product that is becoming more and more popular. In a survey conducted by Restylane, 98% of patients saw visible lip improvement 14 days after injection and 77% continued to see fullness 6 months after injection.

There has been significant popularity in the use of lip and dermal fillers over recent years. In the past, these, along with other cosmetic products such as Botox, were only used among middle aged adults who began seeing age changes in their facial features. However, the recent increase in utilization can be attributed to many members of the younger generations looking to modify their lips and other facial features to achieve a more voluptuous look. These trends have increase the popularity of lip fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane. Luckily, for patients in the Hattiesburg, Mississippi area, Pine Belt Dermatology offers both products. We may even offer discounts from time to time, so give Kristen Richardson or myself a call today! You can even book your own appointment through our website by clicking the “Request Now” tab on our homepage.

When a ‘Rash’ Might Be Something More Serious

April 13, 2026

When a ‘Rash’ Might Be Something More Serious At Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center, we recognize that rashes are common and frequently resolve quickly with minimal treatment. However, some rashes may signify underlying conditions that require prompt medical attention. Identifying when a rash is more than a minor irritation is key to protecting your health. Comprehending Common vs. Concerning Rashes Most everyday rashes result from irritants, allergies, heat, or minor infections and typically improve within a few days with over-the-counter treatments. However, if a rash lasts longer, worsens, or appears with other symptoms, it may signal a more serious issue. Identifying the difference between a routine rash and one that requires medical evaluation helps avoid complications and ensure appropriate care. Warning Signs to Watch For Certain features may indicate a rash requires clinical assessment, including: Rapidly spreading or worsening rash Severe pain, swelling, or blistering Signs of infection such as pus, warmth, or red streaks Fever or flu-like symptoms accompanying the rash A rash that does not improve after several days of treatment Dark, purple, or bruised-looking areas on the skin For example, a rash with fever may indicate a viral or bacterial infection, whereas painful blistering can suggest conditions such as shingles. In rare cases, rashes may signal autoimmune disorders or severe allergic reactions. Rashes That May Point to Underlying Conditions Some rashes may be linked to broader health concerns, including conditions that cause inflammation in the skin and other organs: Allergic reactions that may escalate into further severe responses Infections that spread beyond the skin if untreated Medication reactions that require immediate adjustment Persistent or unusual skin changes may be early signs of skin cancer or precancerous conditions, especially if they do not heal or continue to change over time. Why Early Evaluation Matters Delaying care for a worrisome rash may allow the underlying condition to progress. Early diagnosis improves treatment outcomes and helps prevent discomfort and complications. A dermatology specialist can assess the rash’s appearance, location, and progression, and may recommend diagnostic tests if needed. This approach assures treatment addresses the underlying cause, not just the visible symptoms. When to See a Dermatology Specialist If you are unsure about your rash, it is best to err on the side of caution. Consider seeking care if: The rash is persistent, painful, or unusual in appearance Over-the-counter treatments are not effective You experience additional symptoms such as fever or fatigue The rash interferes with your daily comfort or quality of life At Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center, our experienced providers supply comprehensive skin evaluations and customized treatment plans. We take time to understand your symptoms and deliver clear, effective solutions tailored to your needs. Protecting Your Skin and Your Health While many rashes are minor, some may be early warning signs of more serious health concerns. Monitoring skin changes and pursuing prompt medical advice can produce a notable effect. If you notice a rash that does not seem right, do not ignore it. Schedule a consultation with Pine Belt Dermatology & Skin Cancer Center for expert evaluation and peace of mind. Your skin is an important indicator of your overall health, and taking it seriously supports ongoing well-being.
