Looking to erase smile lines or fill in acne scarring?

We specialize in achieving, restoring, and maintaining beauty through science. Scientific research has shown that products containing bioactive ingredients which interact with living tissues, like Perlane® and Restylane®, can benefit damaged and aging skin. The hyaluronic acid in Perlane® is almost identical to that produced naturally in all living things. Your body’s concentration of hyaluronic acid declines with age, causing some areas of your face and hands to appear hollow or sunken.

Perlane® injections helps restore your skin to a more youthful shape and volume. Dr. Mishkin recommends Perlane® to soften smile lines, fill in acne scars, correct asymmetrical features, or add volume to your lips and hands.

Perlane® treatment takes approximately 30 minutes to perform. Most people find the treatment relatively painless, but you may notice a slight pricking sensation during the injection. Depending on the area you’re treating, a topical or numbing injection may be available. Reactions to Perlane® are rare, but mild side effects may include swelling, tenderness, pain, itching, and discomfort around the injection site. Minor bruising may occur and disappear within a few days.

How long Does Perlane® Last?

You can expect to see immediate visible changes, and the results may be long lasting depending on factors like skin structure and age. Most people choose to repeat Perlane® injection treatments every six months. We also offer a variety of other longer lasting wrinkle filler treatments to achieve your facial rejuvenation goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Just like Restylane®, Perlane is a clear gel formulation of hyaluronic acid that is specifically formulated to act like your body’s own hyaluronic acid, adding volume and fullness to the skin.

What makes Perlane different than Restylane is the average size of the particles and the depth of injection, which means it’s a good choice for more severe facial wrinkles that benefit from a deeper injection into the skin.

After treatment, you might have some swelling, redness, pain, bruising, or tenderness. These are typically mild in severity and normally last less than 7 days in nasolabial folds and less than 14 days in lips. Swelling may be more likely in patients under 36 years, and bruising may be more likely in patients over 35 years.
