Quick answer
What is Restylane?
Restylane is a line of hyaluronic acid fillers made by Galderma. Classic NASHA gels such as Restylane and Lyft are firmer for lift and projection, while OBT gels (Kysse, Defyne, Refyne, Volyme) are more flexible so they move naturally with facial expressions.
At our Myeongdong clinic the doctor picks the Restylane product per area — lips, nasolabial folds, cheeks or chin. Results are reversible with hyaluronidase. For a broader look at filler options see our dermal fillers guide.

FAQ
Restylane questions
What is the difference between NASHA and OBT Restylane?
NASHA gels are firmer and hold shape well for lift. OBT gels are more flexible and are often chosen for expressive areas like lips and smile lines.
How long does Restylane last?
Typically 6–12 months in the lips and up to 12–18 months in cheeks or folds, depending on the product and your metabolism.
Is Restylane available in Korea?
Yes. Galderma’s Restylane products are approved in Korea. You can inspect the packaging before treatment.
Can Restylane be combined with Botox?
Yes. Fillers restore volume while botulinum toxin relaxes muscle lines, so they are commonly combined in one visit.
Do foreigners pay more?
No. International patients pay the same price as local patients at Umi Clinic.
