Restylane Kysse

Restylane Kysse is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) filler. It is designed to enhance the lip volume and minimize the appearance of fine lines above the mouth with a natural look and feel, and has also been shown to improve texture and lip color, and allows patients to maintain their natural-looking expressions.

Kysse is a great treatment option for people with lips that have thinned due to the aging process or for those seeking natural-looking, softer, fuller lips. Results are clinically proven to last up to 1 year.

Where can Kysse be used?

How does Kysse work?

Kysse uses hyaluronic acid to enhance the lips. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring bodily substance with the ability to bind up to 1,000 times its weight in moisture, causing an expansion in volume when injected under the skin. This volume increase also corrects fine lip lines that occur on the surface of the lips due to natural aging.
