What Does Juvéderm
Do?
Juvéderm injectable gel temporarily adds volume to facial tissue and restores
a smooth appearance to the face.
Why Does Juvéderm Come
In Two Formulations?
Juvéderm injectable gel is available in two formulations to allow your physician
to tailor treatment to your unique needs. Juvéderm Ultra provides versatility
in contouring and volumizing facial wrinkles, folds and lips. Juvéderm Ultra
Plus is a more robust formulation for volumizing and correcting deeper folds,
wrinkles and lips.
What Will The Treatment
Accomplish?
Juvéderm injectable gel will help to smooth moderate to severe facial wrinkles
and folds. Most patients need one treatment to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing
and one treatment could smooth your lines and wrinkles for up to 9 months
to 12+ months depending on which formulation is used.
What Are The Possible
Side Effects?
Most side effects are mild or moderate in nature, and their duration is short
lasting (7 days or less). The most common side effects include, but are not
limited to, temporary injection-site reactions such as redness, pain/tenderness,
firmness, swelling, lumps/bumps, bruising, itching, and discoloration. As
with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection.
Are The Injections
Painful?
Injections may cause some discomfort during and after the injection. Juvéderm
is injected directly into the skin using a fine needle to reduce injection
discomfort. Local injectable anesthetic is often used to make the procedure
more comfortable.
Does The Correction
Last Forever?
No. Correction is temporary; therefore, touch-up injections as well as repeat
injections are usually needed to maintain optimal correction.
How Much Does It Cost?
Treatments are customized based upon your goals. During your free and private
consultation, your physician will work with you to develop a treatment plan
that meets your needs.
