Juvederm®, a FDA approved hyaluronic acid injectable filler, can be used to improve skin appearance and diminish wrinkles, fine lines and folds leaving a smooth, fresh and younger appearance.
As we age our bodies lose natural hyaluronic acid that gives us a youthful appearance, leaving our skin looking tired and wrinkled.
Juvederm® is a clear gel-like substance, injected by your physician into the under-eye area, folds of the cheeks, and outer corners of the mouth; it has also been used effectively for lip enhancement and cheek contouring. Juvederm® differs from other dermal fillers in that it is supple instead of rigid so it can provide a smoother, more natural appearance. The results of Juvederm® are almost immediate and last for up to a year. Juvederm® is comprised of a natural filler substance that over time is absorbed by the body. The Juvederm family of products includes:
Voluma XC
The only FDA approved filler on the market today, JUVÉDERM VOLUMA™ XC provides a subtle lift, instantly adds volume and restores contour to the skin for up to 2 years. Making it one of the longest lasting treatments available today! Affectionately referred to by cosmetic physicians as “a lift without the surgery” VOLUMA™ XC is ideally suited to smooth moderate to severe wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth, as well as add volume to the cheek area, giving an overall refreshed, revitalized appearance to the skin.
Volbella
Volbella is designed specifically for the lips and fine lines around the mouth, Volbella is a gel that has been developed to give a smooth natural look to your skin with long lasting results. Juvederm has developed a new, advanced ingredient called Vycross that is used in this treatment to help patients define their lip shape, ease away lines around the mouth and add volume to the cheek area. Further, lidocaine is included in the gel to help make the treatment process more comfortable. The result is the treatment areas have beautiful, natural looking skin that lasts up to a year.
Vollure
As we age we lose volume in our skin, cheeks begin to flatten and sag, fine lines begin to appear, especially around the nose and mouth area. Fortunately there is a new filler in the Juvederm family designed especially for these areas, Juvederm Vollure. This FDA approved filler is an injectable gel that adds volume to fill and smooth lines and folds around the nose and mouth. The difference is subtle but long lasting, up to 18 months.
