About this lesson

Transform tired, volume-depleted faces using Restylane's dual-product system: Defyne and Volyme.

Precise projection points with Defyne create the lift, then deep Volyme placement rebuilds lost structure from bone level outward.

Watch as negative vectors become positive, sunken cheeks regain fullness, and tired appearances shift to refreshed vitality.

This lesson is designed for injectors seeking Restylane training online that goes beyond single-product approaches to comprehensive mid-face transformation.

Things you’ll learn

  • Establishing lift with Defyne's projection points before layering Volyme's structural volume to prevent flat, overfilled results.
  • Supraperiosteal placement technique: going deep to bone first, then building outward through linear threading in soft tissue.
  • Dosing protocols for Restylane Defyne and Volyme.
  • Visual assessment skills to identify negative vectors and evaluate positive vector restoration from multiple angles, including a bird's-eye view.

Why Take this Course?

  • Many injectors use single products and miss the synergy between Defyne's lift and Volyme's structural foundation.
  • Patients with volume depletion often get overtreated because injectors compensate with quantity instead of strategy. Learn an efficient approach that uses less product for better results.
  • Results last 6-12 months with Volyme's gel formulation. Learn to use a product that gives patients lasting value and predictable treatment intervals.
  • Dr. Sopena's real-time troubleshooting during live treatment shows you how to handle bleeding, adjust volumes mid-procedure, and make clinical decisions on the fly.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Apply the lift-then-volumize sequence using Restylane Defyne for projection, followed by Restylane Volyme for structural restoration.
  • Place products at multiple tissue depths.
  • Create points of maximum projection efficiently using minimal volumes that deliver disproportionate aesthetic impact.
  • Evaluate and correct negative vectors, restoring positive facial contours that eliminate tired appearance and restore youthful fullness.
