JUVÉDERM®
Have you ever wanted plump and full cheeks or natural-looking fuller lips? Lucky for you, JUVÉDERM® can help! Our injection specialists in Alpharetta use JUVÉDERM® to restore lost volume, shape the face without surgery, and soften deep folds and lines that develop over time. Whether you want to reset or stop the clock, we have all the cosmetic treatments you need.
What is JUVÉDERM®?
JUVÉDERM® is a “soft” clear gel filler with exceptional flow properties that ensure a natural-looking and natural-feeling result. This wrinkle filler feels very similar to natural skin. JUVÉDERM® is made from hyaluronic acid, a sugar in your body that holds water and prevents tissues from drying out. Hyaluronic acid fillers have been available for several years – the most well-known being Restylane®. Despite being quite similar to Restylane®, JUVÉDERM® has some structural differences.
There is more than one reason to ask our medical specialist about the JUVÉDERM® Collection of Fillers, just like there is more than one filler. There are five different products to suit your specific needs, making it the world’s #1 dermal filler collection. Each is designed for different needs in different areas of the face, such as the lips, cheeks, and chin. We can add volume to plump lips with JUVÉDERM® VOBELLA® XC and JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC, smooth lines with JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC and JUVÉDERM® VOLLURE® XC, or lift and contour in cheeks or shape in the chin with JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA® XC—we’ve got what you need to get the results you want.
How does it work?
JUVÉDERM® is injected into the lips, cheeks, jawline, and neck with a fine needle. The filler smoothes out fine lines and wrinkles and reduces skin laxity by building volume under the skin. Adding JUVÉDERM® to your cheeks and lips can restore volume you may have lost naturally or never had. It’s a very effective, non-surgical way to eliminate wrinkles around your mouth and lips. This minimally invasive treatment provides instant, natural-looking, long-lasting results.
When you come in for your appointment, our injector will clean the area to be treated and apply a numbing cream. The injections will then be administered. The procedure should be painless, although you may feel tingling and pressure. A typical appointment will take less than one hour. You should notice the effects right away. After your appointment, there’s no downtime and minimal recovery time. You should avoid strenuous activity, sun exposure, makeup application, and alcohol consumption for at least 24 hours after your treatment.
What are the benefits of JUVÉDERM®?
The JUVÉDERM® family of dermal fillers has been successfully diminishing the effects of time for over fifteen years. Here are some of the benefits of JUVÉDERM®:
- Treatments are a painless experience. Because the filler contains lidocaine, it also provides localized pain relief.
- The filler works beautifully to improve lines, wrinkles, and folds, augmenting the nose and jawline and adding volume to the temples, cheeks, and lips.
- It contains a very smooth gel, which offers natural-looking results around the mouth.
- Unlike other fillers, it can treat stubborn lines around the mouth.
- The hyaluronic acid in this filler can help the body stimulate its regenerative abilities. It naturally stimulates collagen production.
- The results can be seen immediately. You can see instant improvements in treated areas.
- The treatment can take less than 15 minutes and up to an hour.
- If you are unhappy with your results for any reason, it’s completely reversible. As hyaluronic acid-based fillers are fully biodegradable, they gradually break down and eventually disappear.
