Juvederm® - Health Tips

As we age, the look and feel of our skin change. When this happens, it can affect confidence and youthful appearance. One of the best ways to brighten your face is to ask your dermatologist about a natural under-eye filler such as Juvéderm Voluma.

A dermal filler, Juvéderm Voluma targets signs of aging, including all of these: 

  • Wrinkles
  • Loss of volume
  • Sagging skin
  • Fine lines

Juvéderm Voluma is made of hyaluronic acid (HA), a compound that boosts collagen production in the skin. HA is a humectant that occurs naturally in the eyes, skin, and the joints’ synovial fluid. Because it’s natural, Juvéderm Voluma is considered one of the safest options for use under the eyes. 

Once your dermatologist identifies your treatment needs, the Voluma is injected into the areas that you want to receive the most impact. Most patients agree that the process is simple. Moreover, you will experience minimal discomfort. You may experience slight swelling or redness, but these issues quickly resolve themselves.

With Voluma, there is very little recovery time required. Best of all, you can enjoy long-lasting results. 
Voluma may be an excellent solution for you if you want to address your aging concerns. Suitable candidates need to meet these requirements.

  • You should have realistic expectations about what Voluma can offer.
  • Patients should be in overall good health.
  • Pre-existing skin conditions or irritation should be addressed before using under-eye fillers.

Dermal fillers can absolutely transform a person’s appearance – and when it comes to the gold standard for dermal fillers, Juvederm® is at the front of the pack. That’s because Juvederm® – developed by Allergen – represents a line of fillers that contain various hyaluronic acid formulas designed to help you get the best (and most natural) results possible.

So whether you want to improve the appearance of facial folds or get a fuller, plumper pout, learn more about Juvederm® fillers, including how long you can expect your results to last!

 

How Long Will Juvederm® Fillers Last?

Juvederm® Ultra and Juvederm® Ultra Plus

These two dermal fillers are excellent solutions for people who want to fill in deep lines and wrinkles, especially around the nose and mouth. Juvederm® Ultra can treat moderate lines and folds, while Juvederm® Ultra Plus smooths the appearance of deeper, more severe-looking folds.

Juvederm® Ultra and Juvederm® Ultra Plus results can last at least 9 months.

Juvederm® Vollure

If you have moderate nasolabial folds – those lines around the nose and mouth – then you may see fantastic results with Juvederm® Vollure. This FDA-approved dermal filler uses hyaluronic acid gel to “plump” up facial folds, which creates a smoothing and rejuvenating effect.

Juvederm® Vollure results are long-lasting, with results extending up to 16 months.

Juvederm® Voluma

For those candidates who have seen significant volume loss in their mid-facial area – like the cheeks – there’s Juvederm® Voluma. This FDA-approved dermal filler uses a thicker hyaluronic acid gel to add volume to the cheeks, thereby correcting signs of cheek sagging and mid-facial lines.

Juvederm® Voluma results can last up to two years.

 

Juvederm® Volbella

If you want plumper, more voluptuous lips, then it’s time to introduce yourself to Juvederm® Volbella. This FDA-approved dermal filler uses a thinner hyaluronic acid to add volume to lips without sacrificing your mouth’s natural movements. Juvederm® Volbella is also a great choice for smoothing away smoker’s lines.

Juvederm® Volbella results can last up to 12 months.

Juvéderm™ is a dermal filler advance from Allergan, Inc., the makers of Botox® cosmetic. Juvéderm™ is a "next generation" smooth gel non-animal dermal filler that plumps lips, sculpts cheeks and fills in wrinkles and folds.

OVERVIEW

Juvéderm™ provides exceptional results that last up to 12 months or longer due to a special formulation that yields the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid available today. This process creates a smooth gel that flows easily into the skin, creating a soft, natural look. The smooth consistency of Juvéderm™ also helps to minimize the discomfort and swelling that can sometimes occur during other injection procedures.

Juvéderm™ treatment is effective for:

  • Augmenting the lips
  • Filling nasolabial folds (deep folds that form from the nose to the mouth)
  • Shaping facial contours (such as on cheeks and chin)
  • Treating smile lines (correcting thin, superficial lines around the eyes, mouth and forehead)

TREATMENT

Juvéderm™ is injected into the skin using a fine needle. The injection process takes only about 15 minutes and results are immediate. Downtime is minimal and you can resume your normal activities right away.

Juvéderm™ is biosynthetic and of non-animal origin. Since it is not created from an animal source, there is little chance of an allergic reaction. It has been proven to be safe and effective for all skin types and colors.

RESULTS

Juvéderm™ can help return your face to its natural youthful shape. Most patients need one treatment to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing, and the results last about 6 months.
