JUVEDERM FAMILY OF HA FILLERS
JUVÉDERM® is the #1 chosen dermal filler collection* in the world that offers 5 different products to meet your specific needs. Add volume to plump lips, smooth lines, or lift & contour cheeks—we have what you need to get the results you want.
Juvederm Ultra
JUVÉDERM® Ultra XC injectable gel is also for injection into the lips and perioral area for lip augmentation in adults over 21. Juvaderm Ultra lasts about 6 months, making it a nice option for someone new to filler to see how they likethe results.
Juvederm Ultra Plus
JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC is a thicker version of its “sister” dermal filler, Juvederm Ultra. It is proven to give a more natural look, and can fill out problem areas for longer. For example, Juvederm Ultra will only last for about six months, while Juvederm Ultra Plus XC will continue to treat the problem area(s) for up to one whole year. Juvederm Ultra Plus XC is primarily targeted to treat deep folds in and around the lips–including nasolabial folds (“smile lines”) and marionette lines–and for voluminous lip enhancement.
Juvederm Voluma
As you age, the cheeks may flatten and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin's surface, which provides lift and contour to the cheek area.
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC provides natural-looking and long-lasting results that last up to 2 years with optimal treatment.
Over time, due to aging, wrinkles develop on your face, and nasolabial folds may become more visible. JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ XC is designed to temporarily add volume to the facial wrinkles for a smoother appearance to the face. The lidocaine in the gel improves the comfort of the injection by reducing sensitivity to pain.
FAQs
Pre-Treatment Considerations
Pre-Treatment Considerations:
- Schedule your injection at a time when minor swelling or bruising will not disrupt your social obligations. Each time you are treated, outcomes may vary.
- To lessen the likelihood of bleeding or bruising, discontinue use of blood thinning products for 10 days prior to treatment, if approved by your primary care provider. This includes: aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin or Advil), naproxen, Aleve, fish oil, St. John's Wort, flax, Vitamin E, Vitamin D, garlic, Ginkgo Biloba, ginseng, etc. Alcohol is also to be avoided 24 hours pre- or postinjectable treatment, as it is also a blood thinner. You can consider taking Arnica Montana natural supplement to help bruising (take 5 tablets three times per day starting one week prior to treatment).
- Please notify your provider if you have any history of cold sores, as we will consider pre-medicating with an antiviral prescription prior to injections. Cancel your appointment if you have any open sores in the treatment area. It is important that you alert us of any medical conditions you may have and/or any prescribed medications you are taking prior to your treatment.
- Any injection introduces the risk for infection. For this reason, the following is taken into consideration when proceeding with injections. We will delay injectables if you:
- Have had any infection, cold, virus, or flu in the past 30 days.
- Have had any dental procedures in the past 30 days or are anticipating dental procedures or cleanings in the next 30 days.
- Have had a surgical procedure in the past 30 days or are anticipating a surgery or procedure.
- Have had any immunizations in the past 30 days or if you’re anticipating immunizations.
- Have had any tattooing or permanent makeup within the past 30 days.
- Take any immunosuppressive/injectable medications (ex: Biologics such as Humira, Skyrizi, Stelara, Enbrel, Taltz, Cosentyx, Tremfya).
- Additional contraindications: Pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies to components of dermal fillers, open sores in areas to be treated.
Post-Treatment Instructions:
- Swelling, bruising, tenderness, numbness, and areas of firm nodules may occur.
- Cosmetic fillers are long lasting, but not permanent. Longevity depends on the areas treated and your body’s metabolism.
- DO NOT APPLY ANYTHING TO THE SKIN UNTIL THE DAY AFTER TREATMENT: No cleanser, moisturizer, or makeup!
- DO NOT massage, touch, or manipulate the injection site. Avoid heavy exercise the day of your treatment.
- Ice packs may be used to the treated area during the first 12 hours; unless PRP, Botox or Xeomin was also injected. (If you also recieved PRP or a neuromodulator DO NOT USE ICE). If you only had filler alone you may ice for 15 minutes on every hour.
- Avoid dental work for 30 days after filler injections.
- Avoid sleeping on your side or stomach for 24 hours post-treatment to prevent dispersing the product. We recommend you sleep elevated on your back and use pillows to stabilize yourself.
- If experiencing swelling, sleep with head elevated for 2-3 days to decrease swelling.
- You may take acetaminophen/Tylenol if you experience any mild tenderness or discomfort. (If you also recieved PRP so not use anti-inflammatories as this will lessen its effects).
- Wait a minimum of two weeks before receiving any skin care or laser treatments.
- For most patients, the benefits of dermal fillers can be enhanced by using a medical-grade skincare system. Please consult with our Licensed Paramedical Aesthetician for product recommendations.
- If you experience bruising, Arnica Montana natural supplement can be taken to help bruising to resolve at a faster rate; take 5 tablets three times per day (this can be started 1 week prior to injections).
