Perlane®

Similar to Restylane, Perlane is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is specifically formulated to add volume like your own body's hyaluronic acid. What makes Perlane different is the average size of the particles and the depth of injection. On average, the gel particles in Perlane are larger than those in Restylane, which makes Perlane a good choice for wrinkles that benefit from a deeper injection into the skin.

Perlane is used to smooth moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles such as the lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth. It has been found to be a safe dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin.

Perlane is injected into the skin with an ultra-fine needle. It plumps the skin to smooth away wrinkles and folds. Perlane's water-loving nature attracts and binds water molecules to help maintain volume.

Perlane generally lasts for about 6 months. Perlane gradually disappears from the body without a trace.

Perlane should not be used by people with previous bad allergies (particularly to certain microorganisms known as gram positive bacteria), to drugs that have required in-hospital treatment, or in people with bleeding disorders. Perlane should not be injected anywhere except the skin or just under the skin.

Side effects from Perlane may include slight bruising, redness, or swelling.

Perlane is injected directly into the skin in tiny amounts by an ultrafine needle to reduce injection discomfort.

At Arnot MediSpa, Perlane is sold by the syringe; the total number of syringes needed varies from person to person. Please contact our office for a more specific cost.
