Many of the lines and wrinkles that appear on your face are due to a loss of volume. With age, your body naturally decreases its production of skin-tightening proteins like collagen and elastin. This allows your skin to become thinner and laxer, which results in unwanted lines. Juvéderm® is a popular, hyaluronic acid-based injectable treatment that addresses moderate to severe folds and wrinkles. The Aestheticians at Physician’s Center for Beauty can help to rejuvenate your face with this non-surgical procedure.
Juvéderm Benefits
While some injectable treatments are suited for wrinkles caused by muscle contractions, Juvéderm is designed to address “static” wrinkles. These are lines and creases that appear on your lower and mid-face that have been caused by factors like sun damage, poor skin care, and collagen deficiency.
Juvéderm has FDA approval for treating marionette lines, nasolabial folds, and other assorted wrinkles around the mouth and nose. It has also been found effective at filling in unwanted acne scars.
Juvéderm Treatment Details
Juvéderm is a safe and easy treatment that is typically completed by a skilled Aesthetician in under 15 minutes. Because the injection contains lidocaine, an anesthetic, you should not experience significant discomfort. A topical numbing cream can be used on the skin to further decrease discomfort. The injections are strategically placed in areas that can benefit from additional volume. Almost instantly, Juvéderm connects with the water molecules in the skin, which tightens and plumps the skin to fill in lines and creases.
Juvéderm Recovery
You are free to resume most normal activities as soon as your treatment is complete. Minor bruising and swelling may be visible, but that should fade shortly. To attain better results, our Aestheticians recommend that you avoid consuming alcohol, intense workouts, and sun exposure for the first 24 hours.
Juvéderm Results
Though full results may not be visible for a couple of weeks, the added volume from a Juvéderm injection is visible immediately. Many lines and wrinkles on your mid to lower face become less prominent if not vanish entirely.
The effects of Juvéderm are finite. You may notice that your smooth skin results lasts for nearly one year, though results vary. If you wish to maintain this smoother, younger-looking skin, you should periodically return to Physician’s Center for Beauty for follow-up injections. Our team will craft a customized treatment plan that includes a maintenance schedule that works best for your lifestyle and overall cosmetic goals.
Juvéderm Costs
Since treatment is customized to each patient, the price for Juvéderm differs depending on how many areas you wish to inject and how much Juvéderm is necessary to achieve your requested results. During a consultation, our expert Aesthetician can provide a complete quote so that you can make an informed decision. Juvéderm is not covered by medical insurance plans, but our practice does frequently offer specials.
