Located in the heart of Buckhead, Kalos Facial Plastic Surgery offers Atlanta patients a premier destination for restoring youthful, natural-looking contours with Restylane Defyne—an FDA-approved filler that targets deep smile lines and marionette folds while preserving natural facial expression. Under the expert guidance of Dr. Benjamin C. Stong, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon and Castle Connolly “Top Doctor,” our clinic blends medical excellence with personalized care to help you look like yourself—only more refreshed.
Dr. Stong did an amazing job. I had an eyebrow lift, eyelids, face and neck lift. It’s only been 3.5 weeks and I am thrilled with the new me already! He is highly qualified and I recommend him without hesitation. He and his office staff are professional, available and eager to make your experience a positive one.

What Is Restylane Defyne and How It Works
Restylane Defyne is an FDA-approved injectable filler formulated with XpresHAn Technology, which allows it to flex with facial expressions while restoring volume and smoothing deep wrinkles. It targets:
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin)
The filler is made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that helps retain moisture and elasticity. Results are long-lasting, often up to 12 months, with minimal downtime.
In Atlanta’s competitive professional and social landscape, many residents want to maintain a youthful look while appearing completely natural. Restylane Defyne fits perfectly into this approach, offering a subtle refresh that allows you to look like yourself—only more rested and confident.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
Your journey begins with a comprehensive facial analysis. Dr. Stong or a licensed provider will assess your features and design a treatment plan tailored to your anatomy and desired outcome.
The injection process takes approximately 30 minutes and is done in our comfortable Atlanta clinic. Many of our patients return to work or social engagements the same day, thanks to our precise technique and post-care recommendations.
Most experience minor swelling or tenderness, which typically resolves within 24–48 hours. Our team will follow up to ensure your results are optimal and your experience seamless.
