Juvederm

JUVÉDERM® is the smooth gel filler that your medical practitioner uses to instantly smooth away wrinkles around your mouth and nose. With just one treatment, you’ll get smooth and natural-looking results that lasts an average of 8 – 9 months.

With injectable fillers, smooth away wrinkles and folds that make you look older than you feel. Facial wrinkles and creases are part of the aging process and begin to appear as the underlying collagen and elastin fibers break down.

JUVÉDERM® Injectable Gel is among the most popular of all dermal fillers, particularly for smoothing out deep nasolabial creases – the "parentheses" that become etched around the corners of the mouth from smiling. JUVÉDERM is a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring substance in the body – which adds volume and hydration to the skin. Since it is not animal derived, it requires no pre-testing, and does not cause the allergic reactions associated with animal products. Results from JUVÉDERM can last an average of 8 – 9 months or more.
