Replenish lost volume and smooth wrinkles

Juvéderm is a dermal filler comprised of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin. It’s designed to address various signs of facial aging, including wrinkles, lines, and volume loss. By injecting Juvéderm into targeted areas, it replenishes lost volume, smooths out wrinkles, and enhances facial contours, resulting in a more youthful appearance. The Juvéderm collection includes numerous fillers specifically formulated for different treatment areas and goals.

Juvéderm corrects:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Facial folds and creases
  • Volume loss in cheeks and lips
  • Marionette lines
  • Nasolabial folds
  • Vertical lip lines
  • Hollow areas under the eyes
  • Facial asymmetry

How does Juvéderm work?

Juvéderm works through the action of its primary ingredient, hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that attracts and retains moisture. When injected, hyaluronic acid binds to water molecules, increasing hydration and volume in the treated area.

This helps to plump up the skin, smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines. Additionally, hyaluronic acid further improves skin texture and elasticity over time. The result is a rejuvenated appearance with enhanced facial contours and a more youthful complexion.

What happens during the Juvéderm treatment?

During your treatment, you’ll first consult with your healthcare provider to discuss your goals and assess your suitability for the procedure. Once decided, the treatment begins with cleansing the targeted area. Your provider may apply a topical numbing cream to enhance comfort. Then, using a fine needle or cannula, Juvéderm is injected into specific facial regions.

You may feel slight pressure or a pinching sensation during this process, but discomfort is minimal. Your provider will then massage the treated area to ensure even distribution of the filler. After the injections, you can resume your daily activities without downtime, but you should avoid strenuous workouts and direct sunlight for a few days.

Juvéderm aftercare guidelines:

  • Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 6 hours post-treatment.
  • Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and extreme temperatures after the procedure.
  • Refrain from strenuous exercise or activities that may increase blood flow for 24-48 hours.
  • Avoid alcohol consumption for 24 hours to reduce the risk of bruising.
  • Use gentle skincare products and avoid harsh chemicals or exfoliants on the treated area.
  • Apply ice packs intermittently to reduce swelling and discomfort, if needed.
  • Attend follow-up appointments as scheduled to assess the results and address any concerns.

When will I see the final results?

You’ll notice initial improvements immediately after your Juvéderm treatment, but final results typically become fully apparent within 1-2 weeks. During this time, any swelling or redness will subside, revealing the true outcome of the procedure. The final results last for 6 to 12 months, depending on the specific filler used, following which you’ll need additional treatments.
