Juvéderm is a safe smooth gel filler made of hyaluronic acid (HA). When your skin is young it naturally contains an abundance of HA. As you age, time, sunlight, and other factors can reduce the amount of HA in your skin. The lack of HA causes skin to lose structure and volume which creates unwanted facial wrinkles and folds, like those parentheses lines around your nose and mouth.
This is a quick procedure with no down-time. You will have a topical anesthetic applied for 30 minutes prior to the procedure. The procedure itself will only take 15-20 minutes.
Instant volume and beautiful results! You may have some mild redness and swelling; but that typically resolves in 24-48 hours. Bruising is possible but it also is temporary and resolves quickly and can be easily covered up with makeup. The best part is the Juvéderm XC can last nine months to a year.
The most common side effects are injection site redness, swelling, pain/tenderness, firmness, lumps/bumps or bruising. If you have a longer lasting nodule, the product can dissolved. All are mild in nature, and their duration is short lasting (7 days or less).
