Restylane® Kysse is a revolutionary new injectable lip filler product from Galderma. This exciting hyaluronic acid dermal filler product is the latest to join contact Pinsky Plastic Surgery to schedule a consultation.

What Is Restylane® Kysse?


Restylane Kysse is a next-generation hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is FDA-approved to smooth fine vertical lines along the lips (perioral lines) and provide lip augmentation. The unique formulation of Restylane Kysse includes tiny hyaluronic acid molecules and flexible cross-linking technology (called XpresHAn Technology), making it one of the smoothest lip fillers available. The smooth consistency and flexibility of Restylane Kysse allows it to look and feel natural in the lips, and move with the dynamic expressions of the lips and mouth. In clinical trials reported by Galderma, results achieved with Restylane Kysse can last up to a year for most patients.

Who Is a Candidate for Restylane® Kysse?

The introduction of Restylane Kysse has broadened the spectrum of patients who are interested in and are good candidates for lip augmentation. Additionally, and most importantly, this product has led to greater satisfaction with lip augmentation results. While more traditional hyaluronic acid dermal filler products are still great options for some lip augmentation patients, Restylane Kysse is often the most suitable choice for the following types of individuals:

  • Patients who do not want noticeable-looking lip augmentation, but rather a subtle improvement in the natural beauty, shape, balance, and fullness of their lips.
  • Patients with aging-related lip concerns, such as volume loss, loss of lip definition, and fine lines around the lips who want to restore a smoother, more youthful appearance.
  • Patients who have been previously unsatisfied with other lip filler products, which may have felt unnatural, looked too obvious, or appeared imbalanced over time.
  • Patients who desire noticeably fuller lips that maintain a smooth, natural texture and softness.

If you are curious about Restylane Kysse and want to find out if it is the right treatment option for you, we recommend scheduling a consultation with one of providers. They will take the time to listen to your concerns, examine your lips and face, and inform you about the treatment options that can deliver the results you desire. If you are a good candidate for Restylane Kysse, your injector will develop a customized treatment plan that’s personalized to your unique specifications.

What Happens During Treatment with Restylane® Kysse?

Lip augmentation with Restylane Kysse is a relatively quick process that can be performed on your lunch break, if desired. For added comfort, a topical anesthetic can be applied to the lips prior to injection. Injections are performed using a variety of techniques until the desired shape and fullness is achieved. Following treatment, cold compresses can be applied to the lips to control swelling and aid in comfort. Patients may commonly experience some temporary swelling and mild bruising after treatment, which generally dissipates within a few days.

What Results Can I Expect after Treatment Restylane® Kysse?

Once swelling resolves, the final results of treatment can become apparent. Results should appear smooth, feel soft, and look beautiful. If you require a dose adjustment to further perfect the quality of your results, our team can schedule you a prompt appointment. We want you to feel satisfied with and confident about the appearance of your lips and the care you receive! The majority of our Restylane Kysse patients are thrilled with their results and come back for another treatment once results begin to fade. Each patient’s body absorbs Restylane Kysse at a different rate—while some individuals require re-treatment at six or nine months, other patients can go a full year before coming back to our office for new injections.

How Much Does Restylane® Kysse Cost?

At Pinsky Plastic Surgery, treatment with Restylane Kysse is charged per vial. The number of vials needed to achieve the outcome you desire can be discussed during your consultation, so that you are aware of the price before you proceed with treatment. Typically patients who are interested in achieving a more noticeable degree of lip volume and projection require more of the product. To help make the price of treatment more affordable, we offer financing through reputable third-party lenders—CareCredit® and PatientFi®. Our knowledgeable office team is always ready to answer any questions you may have about scheduling, payment, pricing, and financing to make the process as smooth and effortless as possible.
