BACKGROUND
SUITABLE PATIENT
Beauty is characterised by
The most suitable patient is healthy and meets the inclusion criteria
for Restylane and Dysport and seeks restoration of volume and a
smoother facial appearance. The best candidate will have mild to
moderate volume loss and reasonably good skin elasticity.
• A youthful face
• Facial attractiveness with regards to symmetry and
harmony
• Curves in appropriate places on the face to create
interest and light reflection
• Healthy, clear skin
• Smooth lips with subtle volume, balance and symmetry • Even skin tone and texture.
Ageing is inevitable and encompasses both intrinsic and extrinsic
factors. Changes occur in the face which can be addressed to some
degree by fillers and muscle relaxers such as Dysport. Facial
contouring with NASHA™ gel can be strategically placed to
recreate anatomical harmony and restore volume loss.
AIM OF TREATMENT
NASHA™ fillers can be used to restore facial volume, which
depletes over time, creating a more youthful and enhanced
facial appearance while Dysport can be administered to restore
smoother facial appearance in the glabella region. There are many
methods used to assess the face. One of the methods is by using
Phi to determine the most appropriate relationship of various facial
structures eg. Lips – upper to lower lip ratio of 1:1.618.
INDICATIONS
There are two options within the 30 Minute Restore package
depending on the volume loss and needs of your patient.
Option 1:
2 x 1mL Restylane Perlane with lidocaine
1 x 1mL Restylane with lidocaine
50 units of Dysport
1 x Restylane Recover Cream
Option 2:
1 x 2mL SubQ with lidocaine
1 x 1mL Restylane with lidocaine
50 units of Dysport
1 x Restylane Recover Cream
A more youthful patient presents with a fuller mid face and smooth
peri-oral region. The youthful triangle becomes squared off with
ageing. Therefore the treatment focus is on elevating malar and
zygomatic regions, in conjunction with treatment of the peri-oral
and prejowl area to recreate facial harmony.

This image shows Phi applied
to the face. It depicts the
perfect face as an oval which
is indicative of an inverted
egg shape. The harmonious
face has well proportioned
eyes, nose and mouth and
is a pleasing balanced oval.

ADVANTAGES
A combination package that offers 3mLs of NASHA™ Filler for
volume restoration to create a 'wow' effect at a reasonable
investment.
An opportunity to create significant lift and smooth transition
in the mid face i.e. recreate the Ogee curve with Restylane SubQ
and Perlane.
NASHA technology allows Perlane to deliver superior lifting
capacity in a high strength, long lasting gel (David Stocks et al,
2011) A highly versatile volume filler for a range of indications.
Sub Q is an ultimate dermal filler for maximum lift and structure
in areas such as cheeks and jawline.

NLF or Marionette fold
• Different categories based on depth of depression – Mild,
Moderate, Severe or Extreme.

PATIENT ASSESSMENT
AND CONSULTATION
Photographs prior to treatment are highly recommended
When examining the mid face it may be helpful to assess each of
the following areas to determine how much volume is required:
1. Tear Trough
2. Lid cheek junction depression
• If the patient's NLF or oral commissure is so heavy that you
would rate them as severe or exteme then they are best
to have treatment of mid face first. Multiple syringes or a
combination of treatments may be required. In some cases
surgical correction or enhancement may be a better option.
• For patients where NLF is moderate to severe – the patient
must understand that if they have a severe fold, one treatment
will improve the fold to a moderate category at best. If the fold
is in the moderate category, with a re-treatment within 6
months the next treatment may improve it to the mild category.

it cracks and cakes.
3. Lid cheek junction and malar fat pad depletion.
(Haideh Hirmand 2010)
Category 2 or 3 patient may require treatment of the mid face
first. Explain to the patient the rationale for requiring multi-syringe
treatment rather than single syringe.
Patients that have multiple areas may require treatment of the mid
face first and may need more volume. It is important to explain
the rationale for a multi-syringe treatment to the patient.
Richard Glogau, 1996.

Pix’l cannula can be used to create a style of face lifting technique
based on superior to inferior and lateral to medial approach.

TREATMENT PRINCIPLES:
• Know your anatomy and be aware that the face is well
supplied with blood vessels and nerves.
• The treatment options can be tailored to the individual
patient/client and their needs by adjusting the combination
of Restylane products.
• Cannula or Needle – both have a place depending on the
skill level of the injector and the aims of treatment.
• Asepsis is important to prevent introduction of bacteria
or contaminants.
Lateral to Medial
• Begin wider out on the lateral aspect of the face and use
either Restylane Perlane or Restylane Sub Q and fan in
towards the medial aspect of the face using products such as
Restylane or Restylane Vital (not included in the 30 minute
restore pack).

Image 5
• Suitable patients would have mild mid face volume loss, combined
with mild – moderate buccal fat pad loss and mild skin laxity.
• Commence laterally in front of tragus (beware of the facial
nerve and the parotid gland/duct) using a cannula and gentle
technique. A minimum of 3 passes of the cannula are required:
• 1st pass most lateral point to lift using Sub Q or Perlane
• 2nd pass coming more medial with Perlane or Restylane depending on the degree of buccal hollowing
• 3rd pass at the corner of the mouth using Restylane (or in
patients with finer skin consider Restylane Vital, however
this product is not part of the 30 minute restore) filling
above the lip and under the lip to replace soft tissue loss
and soften upper lip lines.
• Treating the marionette lines may add volume, so consider
the cause of the fold and reduce the weight on the area by
supporting points of prominence.

Superior to Inferior
• Commence treatment for the mid face on the upper
segment of the cheek especially if there is moderate malar
fat pad loss and/or the patient presents very flat genetically
on the zygomatic region.
• Address the areas of prominence and then the areas in between.
• Adding too much NASHA™ gel along the jawline and lower
face can add to the heaviness or squaring off of the face.
Deep plane to superficial layer
• Begin with volume filling deep in the subcutis or periosteal
layer and work up towards the dermal layers.
• Use the larger particle size NASHA™ gel fillers deep and the
smaller particle size NASHA™ gel fillers closer to the dermis.
• Layer to create a smooth surface without the need to
chase rhytids.
INJECTION TECHNIQUE
• Apply headband and remove make up.
• Determine best placement of NASHA™.
• Sterile or aseptic technique is imperative.
• Thoroughly cleanse the skin with a suitable antiseptic solution.
• If using a cannula, local anaesthetic with or without Adrenaline
may be medically prescribed for injection at the injection site to
ensure comfort, reduce bruising and allow easy entry with the
Pix’l Cannula.
Image 7. Commence treatment in midface and laterally; use cannula or
needle to deliver small threads of NASHA™ gel in a fan like fashion.
Suggested treatment areas
• Set up equipment on a sterile dressing pack to avoid
contamination of cannula and introduction of bacteria or
contaminants.
Malar and zygoma regions (SubQ or Perlane); lip and peri-oral
region (Restylane or Lip products - not included in the 30 minute
refresh pack); chin (SubQ or Perlane) for the Y lift effect.
• If using a cannula for the injection site: use a needle the same
size or slightly larger than the chosen cannula. Take care not to
insert the needle too far or to damage a blood vessel with the
introducing needle.
Other areas that can be treated include the brows (Perlane),
lateral aspect of the face (Perlane), the angle of the jaw (SubQ or
Perlane), the nose (Perlane), marionettes (Perlane).
• Carefully introduce the appropriate sized Pix’L cannula by
rotating and threading the cannula along the upper subcutaneous
or hypodermal tissue plane, or in the deep subcutis under the
muscle if you are wishing to lift the zygomaticus and malar
region. The free hand can be used to manually stretch or
support the tissues so that the cannula passes along in the
correct plane without bending or requiring undue force. It is
important to know the location of the tip of the cannula.
• Do NOT force the cannula as this may lead to potential
bending, weakening or breakage of the cannula.
www.wrinkleclinicfinder.com.au
Restylane can be delivered using linear threading, fanning or Fern
Pattern (Dr Tom Van Eijk) technique. Insert the needle and inject
a small amount of NASHA gel and wait 5 – 10 seconds. Slowly
advance the needle, injecting in an ante-grade method to allow
the Lidocaine to take effect ahead of the needle.

BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS
Patient 1
Dysport is generally injected deep into the procerus and the medial
corrugator muscles and more superficially into the lateral corrugator
where it inserts into the dermis, while using a 29g, 30g or smaller
needle to minimise trauma and discomfort. Refer to Dysport PI
and glabellar treatment guide for more specific details.
