Juvéderm®

Newly approved by the FDA, Juvéderm® is a filler made of hyaluronic acid. Among wrinkle reducers, Juvéderm® is an exciting new product due to the fact that it appears to be simultaneously effective and longer-lasting than some other fillers.

What is Juvéderm®?

Since Juvéderm® is so new, most people don’t know what it is. Juvéderm® is a filler that relies on hyaluronic acid rather than collagen to plump up the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally found in the human body. Since the hyaluronic acid in Juvéderm® is created by biosynthesis in a laboratory, patients are not required to take an allergy test before receiving treatment.

One of the main benefits of the Juvéderm® filler is that the results from the product are longer-lasting than those obtained from other wrinkle reducers, including collagen and fat injections. To find out more about Juvéderm® filler and the cost of treatment, see below.

Candidates for Juvéderm® Filler

Juvéderm® filler may be a good option for patients who wish to fill in deep folds or creases in the face, or who would like to augment their lips. Juvéderm® is also effective on fine lines around the eyes. Learn more about who would be good candidates for Juvéderm® filler.

Juvéderm® Cost and Financing Information

The cost of Juvéderm® filler is dependent upon the healthcare provider who is administering the treatment. The cost can also vary according to where you live. Find out more regarding the cost and financing of Juvéderm®.

The Juvéderm® Treatment Process

Juvéderm® filler treatment is quite simple and is similar to other dermal fillers/ wrinkle reducers. It is injected into the area of the wrinkles and creases with minimal discomfort. Its effects are immediate and long-lasting, though some patients may wish to combine Juvéderm® filler with BOTOX® Cosmetic for an even more dramatic effect. More information as to the Juvéderm® treatment process can be found in our additional Juvéderm® information pages.

Risks and Benefits of Juvéderm® Injections

The benefits of Juvéderm® filler injections are easy to see: immediate improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and creases, and fuller lips for those who wish to augment this aspect of their face. Risks are few, as the materials contained in Juvéderm® filler are naturally produced in the human body and are therefore not allergy-inducing. There is a side effect of swelling at the injection site, but this is normal and subsides rapidly after treatment. Learn more about the benefits and risks of Juvéderm® filler injections.
