How Juvéderm Works

Juvéderm is injected into the targeted areas beneath the skin's surface allowing the hyaluronic acid in the filler to attract and retain water thus adding volume to the skin and plumping up the treated area. As a result, wrinkles are minimized, facial contours are enhanced, and the skin gains a more youthful appearance.

The Juvéderm family includes various formulations, each tailored to address specific facial concerns:

1. Juvéderm XC: This versatile filler is commonly used to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (lines extending from the corners of the mouth to the chin).

2. Juvéderm Voluma XC: Specifically formulated to add volume to the cheeks and mid-face area, Juvéderm Voluma XC helps restore youthful contours and combat age-related volume loss.

4. Juvéderm Volbella XC: Designed for subtle lip enhancement and smoothing vertical lip lines, Juvéderm Volbella XC delivers natural-looking results.

Benefits of Juvéderm:

1. Non-Surgical Solution: Juvéderm offers a non-surgical alternative to address signs of aging, allowing patients to achieve natural-looking results without the need for invasive procedures.

2. Immediate Results: Patients can see the effects of Juvéderm almost instantly after treatment, with continued improvements over the following days as the filler settles into place.

3. Long-Lasting Effects: Depending on the specific Juvéderm formulation used and individual factors, results can last anywhere from several months to over a year.

4. Customizable Treatments: Juvéderm treatments can be tailored to meet individual goals, ensuring personalized and natural outcomes.

Potential Side Effects and Considerations:

While Juvéderm is considered safe, it may cause some temporary side effects, including redness, swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. These effects are generally mild and subside within a few days.
