Juvederm - Skin Savvy USA
Juvéderm®
Juvederm® is the “next generation” of dermal fillers. Created by Allergan – the manufacturer of Botox®, Juvederm provides a smooth, long-lasting correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. Dermal fillers are used to restore volume and fullness to the skin, giving a healthy, youthful appearance.
All Juvederm injections are non-surgical and tailored to each patient’s needs and desired results. Juvederm® is currently the only approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that has demonstrated its safety and effectiveness in patients of color.
How does juvederm work?
As we get older, a decrease in our levels of hyaluronic acid occurs, and this results in conditions such as reduced volume, furrows, hollowing and wrinkles. Dermal fillers deliver springy dabs of natural hyaluronic acid into the area to restore volume.
Juvéderm includes a collection of hyaluronic acid dermal fillers that are each specifically designed to target certain areas. This line of dermal fillers includes:
- Juvéderm XC or Vollure™ XC for correcting moderate-to-severe facial wrinkles and folds
- Juvéderm Ultra XC to add volume to thin lips and soften parentheses lines
- Juvéderm Volbella® XC to augment your lips and get rid of lipstick lines
- Juvéderm Voluma® XC for contouring and filling out your cheeks
What to expect during a juvederm treatment?
Juvederm is administered in a smooth-flowing injection, allowing your provider a high level of control for individualized, tailored facial contouring and for achieving a smooth, natural look. The procedure is simple and quick, and the results are practically instantaneous. Numbing cream may be used before the treatment to optimize your comfort during the short procedure. We also offer the option of Juvederm XC, which is formulated with Lidocaine for a more comfortable experience.
What areas can be treated with Juvederm?
As you age, the lines that form around your nose and mouth become more noticeable. Juvederm is most commonly used to correct these different types of facial lines, including “parentheses lines” (nasolabial folds), smile lines, vertical lip lines, and marionette lines (lines formed near the chin). It can also help to define the lip border and give the appearance of a fuller lip.
