What Is JUVÉDERM?
JUVÉDERM is a dermal filler composed mainly of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body. Unlike some other treatment options that involve more invasive procedures, JUVÉDERM is injected directly into the targeted skin area to smooth lines and wrinkles. It’s particularly effective for revitalizing areas around the nose and mouth. By temporarily adding volume, this treatment can give you a more youthful appearance without requiring downtime.
How Can JUVÉDERM Transform Your Appearance?
Plump Thin Lips
Are your lips not as full as you’d like them to be? JUVÉDERM lip treatments are a fantastic option for enhancing lip volume. The hyaluronic acid in JUVÉDERM can give you plumper, more defined lips, making them look naturally fuller.
Smooth Lines and Wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles are inevitable as we age, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with them. JUVÉDERM can smooth out these areas, making your skin look softer and more youthful.
Contour and Volumize Cheeks
If you’ve noticed that your cheeks lack the fullness they once had, JUVÉDERM can help. By adding volume to the cheek area, JUVÉDERM can restore a youthful contour, making your face appear more vibrant and youthful.
Augment Chin
A well-defined chin can bring balance to your facial features. JUVÉDERM can be used to augment the chin area, providing a more harmonious facial profile.
Improve Facial Symmetry
While no face is perfectly symmetrical, significant imbalances can be addressed with JUVÉDERM. By carefully placing the filler in specific areas, we can improve the overall symmetry of your face.
Treat Volume Loss From Aging
One of the most noticeable signs of aging is the loss of facial volume. JUVÉDERM filler can target this issue by restoring volume to the areas that could benefit from it the most, such as the cheeks or around the mouth.
Types of JUVÉDERM Treatments
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® XC
If your goal is to achieve subtler, softer lip volume, then JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA might be right for you. Often referred to as a JUVÉDERM lip filler, this product is specifically engineered for enhancing lip volume and smoothing vertical lip lines.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC
Ideal for restoring volume in the cheek area, JUVÉDERM VOLUMA offers long-lasting results that can make your cheeks look fuller and more youthful. This treatment is an excellent choice for those looking to lift and contour their cheeks.
JUVÉDERM VOLLURE® XC
We also offer JUVÉDERM VOLLURE. This treatment is versatile and effective for addressing some of the facial wrinkles and folds that you can find as you age around the nose and mouth like nasolabial folds or marionette lines.
Reasons to Choose JUVÉDERM
Non-invasive
JUVÉDERM is a non-invasive option. There are no incisions or stitches involved, just a few injections with a very thin needle making the treatment less daunting for many patients.
Quick Treatment
Time is of the essence, and a JUVÉDERM treatment can be performed in a relatively short time span, usually around 15-20 minutes depending on the patient. This makes it a convenient choice for those who are looking for a treatment they can squeeze into their lunch hour.
Natural Results
JUVÉDERM offers results that look natural, not overdone. The hyaluronic acid used in the filler mimics the substance naturally found in your body, allowing for seamless integration and a softer look.
Long-lasting
Wondering how long JUVÉDERM lasts? You’ll be pleased to know that the effects can last for several months, or even up to a year, depending on the specific treatment you choose. This makes it a cost-effective and durable option.
Dissolvable Treatment
If at any point you decide you want to reverse your treatment, JUVÉDERM is dissolvable. A separate enzyme can be used to dissolve the filler, making it a facial enhancement for those who are nervous about their first injections.
Am I a Good Candidate for JUVÉDERM?
You may be a good candidate for JUVÉDERM if:
- You Have Good Skin Health: A strong candidate for JUVÉDERM treatment generally has good skin health. Issues like active acne or skin infections may have to be resolved prior to considering this treatment.
- You Have Good Expectations: Realistic expectations about what JUVÉDERM can achieve will make you more satisfied with the end results. While the treatment can be transformative, it is not a cure-all.
- You Are a Non-Smoker: Smoking can affect how well your body heals and responds to treatments. For the best results with JUVÉDERM filler, it’s advisable to be a non-smoker or willing to quit prior to the treatment.
- You Have a Prior Consultation: A consultation with us will help to determine whether JUVÉDERM is the right choice for you. This will involve an assessment of your skin and a discussion of your aesthetic goals.
- You Are Interested in Non-Surgical Facial Rejuvenation: If you’re seeking to improve your appearance without undergoing surgery, JUVÉDERM offers a non-surgical solution for facial rejuvenation.
