Natural beauty. Made in Sweden.
Restylane is a Swedish innovation dedicated to natural beauty. After decades of extensive research, Dr Bengt Ågerup and the company Q-Med in Uppsala, Sweden, succeeded in developing a method to stabilize non-animal, hyaluronic acid and forming a gel called NASHA. The first application of the NASHA gel, Restylane, was introduced in 1996.
