As we age, our skin begins to lose its elasticity and volume, and it starts to sag. Some men and women opt for facial surgeries like a facelift, while others are more interested in non-surgical options, like injectable fillers. These fillers increase volume and smooth the face for a refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

What is JUVÉDERM®?

The JUVÉDERM® family of fillers is made up of a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid (HA). HA increases your skin’s moisture and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. When injected, it can also increase volume in the skin, making you appear fuller and firmer. JUVÉDERM® is non-surgical, quick, and produces long-lasting results; however, it is recommended that you continue sessions to keep up the appearance you desire.

What Are My Options?

There are a few different lines of JUVÉDERM® offered in the collection of fillers, and they provide several remedies for non-surgical facial enhancement. The JUVÉDERM® fillers available at the Institute of Anti-Aging Medicine and Skin Spa include:

• JUVÉDERM® XC: Correct the appearance of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds
• JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC: Smooth fine lines around the mouth and add volume to the lips
• JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC: Remove the hollowed cheek appearance by adding volume
• JUVÉDERM VOLLURE™ XC: Fill and smooth moderate to severe facial creases
• JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® XC: Enhance the lips and smooth perioral lines

JUVÉDERM® Results

Results of JUVÉDERM® appear within a few days once the gel settles into place and starts working. There is no downtime associated with this treatment; however, patients may experience redness and bruising for a few days, though this will dissipate with time. JUVÉDERM® can last six months to one year. Patients will appear refreshed and rejuvenated with fewer wrinkles and fuller lips.
