JuvedermFine lines, wrinkles, and volume loss in the face are among the first noticeable signs of aging. These markers clearly distinguish between a face that is youthful and a face that is more “mature.” JUVÉDERM® is an FDA-approved dermal filler that can soften the signs of facial aging and fashion a more youthful appearance.

What Is JUVÉDERM®?

JUVÉDERM® is a family of dermal fillers that can be safely injected into the face. JUVÉDERM® Ultra, JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC, JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus, and JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC are a few of the products in the JUVÉDERM® family. Each JUVÉDERM® product is a smooth gel made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid, or HA, is a naturally-occurring substance that improves skin volume and hydration. HA fillers like JUVÉDERM® can improve facial wrinkles, hollows, and other signs of aging. A single treatment session with JUVÉDERM® takes fewer than 30 minutes to perform and produces immediate results with no downtime. Results typically last up to one year, and follow-up treatments can maintain the results.

The Many Uses and Benefits of JUVÉDERM®

JUVÉDERM® effectively corrects signs of facial aging. One of these is natural cheek volume loss, which is also known as age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM® injections to the cheek area can increase volume deep beneath the surface of the skin so that the cheeks appear more lifted, full, and youthful. JUVÉDERM® can also be used to fill in deep hollows beneath the eyes. Another popular use of JUVÉDERM® is softening the appearance of wrinkles such as smile lines and parentheses lines (nasolabial folds). The hyaluronic acid within JUVÉDERM® improves skin hydration and volume so that lines are softened and textural irregularities become smoother. Finally, JUVÉDERM® can also be used to augment the lips and perioral area so that the lips appear fuller. JUVÉDERM® produces natural-looking, long-lasting results that can help you look more youthful and rejuvenated.
