What are Restylane® Defyne and Refyne Fillers?
Restylane® Defyne and Refyne are clear gel injectable fillers that do as their name suggests: define and refine your skin.
- Restylane® Defyne is used to treat deep wrinkles and folds or replace lost volume under the skin. It provides definition for areas around your mouth and nose. Defyne can make even your most dramatic expressions look soft and natural, not puffy and stiff.
- Restylane® Refyne provides a mid-level lifting effect and treats moderate wrinkles and lines. Where Defyne creates new definition, Refyne offers refinement to similar treatment areas. Refyne is perfect for subtly de-aging your face in a way that looks completely natural.
Both the Defyne filler and the Refyne filler use hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally-occurring substance in our bodies that we simply lose over time. Each of these injectables provides specially-formulated hyaluronic acid compounds to specific treatment areas for natural, youthful results. These are great, non-surgical options with minimal downtime and results lasting up to 12 months.
How Do Restylane® Defyne and Refyne Fillers Work?
As with all our injectable filler treatments, we begin with a complimentary consultation. We’ll discuss your aesthetic goals and evaluate your skin to determine which treatment best fits your case.

Restylane® Defyne and Refyne Frequently Asked Questions
How long do Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne last?
When will I see results?
Restylane® Refyne and Defyne results are evident immediately, and you can expect full correction within a week.
Is one of these options better than the other, or similar products?
There are many fillers that are all perfectly effective, but some are better for certain cosmetic goals than others. Defyne filler is mainly used to add volume and reduce deep wrinkles around the nose and mouth, while Refyne filler treats moderate wrinkles, most often between the mouth and nose.
Can I get Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne the day before a big event?
Both Refyne and Defyne treatment have potential for downtime. Not everyone bruises, but most will experience swelling at a minimum. These side effects should disappear within a week.
Does the Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne procedure hurt?
Between numbing cream and anesthetic within the filler, most patients experience a pinch with some pressure. Some spots can be more sensitive than others, but most patients tolerate it without issue.
How Do Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne filler work?
Does it really matter who does my Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne?
Restylane® Defyne and Refyne are incredibly useful tools, but still require someone who knows how to use them for results that are both significant and completely natural looking. We recommend you use a highly trained-medical provider who understands facial anatomy at a deep level, like our own Dr. Rosalyn George, to perform the procedure to prevent complications and provide exceptional results.
Can I get Restylane® Refyne or Restylane® Defyne done the same day as other injectable procedures?
Yes, you can receive Restylane® Defyne and Refyne the same day as other fillers such as BOTOX®, Dysport®, and VOLLURE™.
We do ask that you let us know if you’re getting laser treatment, as fillers should be done afterwards.
What happens if I need more correction or I didn’t achieve the results I’d anticipated?
It’s important to everyone at Wilmington Dermatology Center that our patients are as satisfied with their treatment as possible. We offer a two-week follow-up for Restylane® Defyne and Refyne, where we can evaluate your results and adjust treatment as necessary.
