Restylane is usually performed in a doctor's office or in a medispa. It's a small syringe using a tiny needle which is injected into the appropriate areas. Usually, a local anesthetic will be used, either something such as a topical anaesthetic such as EMLA, or such as an injection with lidocaine, which is a local anaesthetic.
