According to the research data of Meibei Medical Aesthetics, the demand for mid-face treatment ranks first among high-end hyaluronic acid seekers, with 60% of respondents receiving mid-face injections (nasal base/nasolabial folds, apple muscle, cheeks, etc.) in the past year. [3] With age and natural bone aging, the mid-face is prone to slight sagging, and 65% of patients are concerned that mid-face filler injections may cause the face to become rigid or unnatural. Focusing on the mid-face and creating a plump and flexible appearance has become the core demand of many beauty seekers.

Restylane is ® Galderma's second Lidocaine-based OBT gel technology hyaluronic acid product launched in the Chinese market, which has excellent stretching force and creates a natural and dynamic volume lifting effect. Clinical studies have shown that facial plumping results can be achieved for up to 18 months with a single injection[4], with 98% of subjects satisfied with the results [5] and 100% willing to recommend a friend and receive treatment again [6].
Cui Haiyan, Director of the Institute of Plastic Surgery and Anti-Aging at Tongji University School of Medicine, Director of the Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery at Tongji Hospital, Tongji University, Chief Physician and Doctoral Supervisor, said: "Facial expressions are controlled by 42 facial muscles to express various emotions such as joy, anger, sadness, and happiness, and participate in activities such as speech and chewing. Mid-face appearance is critical in interpersonal communication. [7] With the superior stretching power of OBT gel technology, Restylane Harvest ® can correct volume loss and contour defects in the mid-face, improving or maintaining the youthful and natural dynamic expression of the face, achieving a natural, volumized and long-lasting mid-face dynamic filling aesthetic effect. ”
Dynamic shaping, indulgent expression: OBT gel technology leads a new chapter in the dynamic aesthetics of hyaluronic acid
"Natural dynamic expression" is an important feature of "personality beauty", and it is the key to achieving interpersonal communication and genuine interaction. OBT gel technology can achieve a perfect fit with dynamic expressions, improving the lack of volume, three-dimensional shaping, and allowing beauty seekers to indulge in expressing their emotions.
As the world's first and only hyaluronic acid technology that has been evaluated for the dynamic naturalness of five expressions after injection[8][9], OBT gel technology products can effectively improve or maintain the youthful and natural dynamic expression of the face. The data showed that there were no reports of unexpected adverse reactions after 1 million cases of OBT product use in the real world. Restylane Harvest ® and Restylane Dingcai ® are two OBT gel technology products, which respectively address the needs of facial aesthetic treatment such as volume loss and contour defects in the middle face, as well as jaw contour improvement and nasolabial fold wrinkle correction, empowering aesthetic doctors to achieve a younger, smart and natural appearance for beauty seekers.
Professor Li Qin, President of the Facial Rejuvenation Branch of the China Plastic Surgery Association and Professor of AST Medical Aesthetic Group, said: "The OBT gel technology balances the G' value (elastic modulus) and the xStrain value (stretching parameter) to provide excellent stretching force and good support for the face. When the patients who received OBT gel injection did their facial expressions, the stretching of the facial tissues was closer to the state of young people, which met the aesthetic needs of the majority of beauty seekers for dynamic shaping. ”
