JUVÉDERM®

As we age, the natural volume of youthful skin starts to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. JUVÉDERM® dermal filler injections at Skin Care Doctors offer a non-surgical option to achieve a more youthful appearance without invasive procedures.

A Solution for Smooth Skin

JUVÉDERM® offers a temporary, FDA-approved cosmetic solution for smoothing wrinkles and restoring lost volume to the facial contours. Because it lasts six months to a year, you can try it without committing to a permanent change and decide if you want to continue with the treatment.

What Is JUVÉDERM®?

JUVÉDERM® is a silky gel made of hyaluronic acid – a substance naturally found in your skin that helps to keep the skin hydrated and plump. Our medical provider eases the JUVÉDERM® injectable gel under your skin to provide a naturally smooth look and feel – so everyone will notice (but no one will know)!

Several types of JUVÉDERM® available, each designed to target specific areas of the face, including the undereye area, nose, chin, cheeks, temples, lips, and around the mouth. The results of JUVÉDERM® injections can last six months to a year, depending on the type used and the area of the face treated.

How It Works

JUVÉDERM® is a dermal filler used to smooth out fine lines and creases on the face. It is made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring bodily substance that helps keep the skin hydrated and plump. When JUVÉDERM® is injected into the skin, it adds volume and moisture to the area, which helps minimize the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines.

The hyaluronic acid in JUVÉDERM® works by binding with water molecules in the skin, creating a gel-like substance that fills the gaps between skin cells. This helps smooth out wrinkles and fine lines and adds volume to areas that have lost their fullness over time. JUVÉDERM® is particularly effective for treating wrinkles around the nose and mouth, as well as adding volume to the lips and cheeks.

Types of JUVÉDERM® Offered

JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC

JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC can treat moderate facial wrinkles and creases, such as the nasolabial folds (lines that run from the nose to the corners of the mouth).

JUVEDERM® Ultra Plus XC

JUVEDERM® Ultra Plus offers a thicker formula, making it more suitable for treating deeper wrinkles and adding volume to areas with significant volume loss.

JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC

The JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC product adds volume to the cheeks, allowing the Skin Care Doctors’ provider to create more shapely, youthful contours.

JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA™ XC

VOLBELLA™ is used to add subtle volume to the lips, which reduces the appearance of vertical lip lines and gives the lips more plump, defined contours.

JUVÉDERM® VOLUX™ XC

The VOLUX™ product is designed for use in the chin and jawline areas to improve the definition of the jawline, add volume to a weak chin, or balance out facial asymmetry.

SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®

JUVÉDERM®'s SKINVIVE™, the sole FDA-approved hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable, enhances cheek skin smoothness, delivering a lasting glow for six months. SKINVIVE™ reported higher satisfaction with glowing, hydrated, refreshed, and healthy skin.

JUVÉDERM® Treatment: What to Expect

Injections

Our medical provider will begin by cleaning and numbing the area where the JUVÉDERM® will be injected with a local anesthetic. Based on your desired aesthetic outcome, the specific JUVÉDERM® product will be artistically injected into the target areas using a fine needle or cannula. Depending on the number of areas being treated, you can expect your treatment to take between 15 to 60 minutes.

Recovery

Some swelling, redness, and bruising may occur in the treated area, but this usually subsides within a few days. Our providers recommend you avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption, and sun exposure for at least 24 hours after the treatment. Results can be seen immediately, but it may take a few days for the full effects to be visible, and you can expect them to last between six months to a year.
