JUVÉDERM^®

The introduction of injectable skin fillers has dramatically increased the number of non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatments. While surgery remains the best way to achieve long-lasting results, soft tissue skin fillers can often accomplish immediate significant improvement with little to no recovery time. Patients who use skin fillers typically report improvement in the following areas:

• Wrinkle reduction
• Increase in tissue volume (as in lip augmentation)
• Acne scar minimization

Each of the skin fillers offered at our practice has certain advantages over the others. Oftentimes, a combination therapy can yield the best results. It is important to remember that no filler is permanent; to maintain your results, you will eventually need to repeat treatment.

JUVÉDERM^® and VOLUMA^™ skin fillers are substances designed to add volume and remove wrinkles by plumping up the target area.

JUVÉDERM^® and VOLUMA^™ are colorless hyaluronic acid-based gels that contain a small quantity of local anesthetic. JUVÉDERM^® is injected into facial tissue to help smooth away wrinkles and folds, especially around the mouth and nose. JUVÉDERM^® can also add volume to the facial tissue and to restore a smoother appearance to the face. The lidocaine in the gel will help to minimize discomfort during the injections.

VOLUMA^™ can often instantly add volume to the cheek, nose, and mouth area and has been clinically proven to last up to two years in treated patients.

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally-occurring substance found in the human body. Hyaluronic acid is designed to deliver nutrients, hydrate the skin by holding in water, and act as a cushioning agent.
