Description
Restylane® with Lidocaine Classic 1 × 1 mL
Restylane® with Lidocaine Classic is an injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler medical device developed by Galderma for the correction of moderate facial wrinkles and folds and for subtle volume restoration. As one of the original formulations in the Restylane filler range, it is designed to provide balanced lift, smooth integration, and predictable aesthetic outcomes. The inclusion of lidocaine improves patient comfort during injection.
The gel is intended for mid-dermal to deep dermal placement, offering structural support while maintaining natural facial expression. Unlike a Restylane skin booster, which focuses primarily on hydration and skin quality, Restylane Classic is formulated specifically for wrinkle correction and contour refinement.
What Restylane® Classic Is Similar To
Restylane Classic can be regarded alongside other mid-strength hyaluronic acid dermal fillers intended for correction of moderate wrinkles and folds. Within the Restylane portfolio, it sits between lighter skin-boosting formulations and firmer volumising fillers such as Lyft or Defyne.
Compared with a Restylane skin booster, which diffuses within the dermis for hydration, Restylane with Lidocaine Classic provides more defined structural correction. It is commonly used in nasolabial folds and similar areas requiring moderate support. This comparison is provided for clinical orientation only and does not imply interchangeability.
