Juvederm Fine Line Treatments in Plantation
Juvederm® is the one of the latest dermal fillers introduced to the U.S. market by Allergan, the company which manufactures Botox.
What is Juvederm?
Juvederm is a family of FDA-approved dermal fillers made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your skin. Hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture and elasticity, making it a popular choice for restoring a youthful appearance. Juvederm products are versatile and can address several aesthetic concerns, such as:
- Smoothing out wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth and nose (e.g., nasolabial folds).
- Adding volume to lips for a fuller, more defined look.
- Enhancing cheek contours for a lifted appearance.
- Minimizing under-eye hollows for a refreshed look.
Benefits of Juvederm Fillers
Juvederm offers several advantages for patients seeking subtle yet effective facial enhancements:
- Natural Results: The hyaluronic acid in Juvederm integrates seamlessly into your skin for a smooth and natural appearance.
- Non-Surgical: Juvederm treatments are minimally invasive, with no downtime required.
- Quick Procedure: Most sessions take only 30–60 minutes.
- Customizable: Different Juvederm formulations can be tailored to your unique needs and desired outcomes.
With Juvederm®, the results are immediate with minimal downtime. Most patients need only one treatment to achieve optimal wrinkle smoothing, and the results last up to 6 months or more.
Juvederm Procedure: What to Expect
Juvederm treatments are minimally invasive, quick, and tailored to your unique aesthetic goals. Here’s an overview of what the procedure typically involves:
1. Consultation
Your journey begins with a consultation with one of our licensed dentists. During this meeting:
- You’ll discuss your desired results, whether it’s smoothing wrinkles, adding volume, or enhancing facial contours.
- Your dentist will evaluate your facial structure and recommend the most suitable Juvederm product.
2. Preparation
Before the treatment begins:
- The targeted area will be cleaned thoroughly to ensure safety and reduce the risk of infection.
- A numbing agent, such as a topical anesthetic or lidocaine (which is included in most Juvederm products), may be applied or is built into the formula to enhance comfort.
3. Injection Process
The provider will use a fine needle to inject the Juvederm gel into the targeted areas. The precise location and depth of injection depend on the treatment goals.
- For wrinkles and folds, Juvederm is placed beneath the skin to smooth and fill lines.
- For volume restoration in areas like the cheeks or lips, the gel is injected more deeply to enhance contours or create fullness. (These areas tend to be more painful, so please feel free to ask for more anesthetic during your procedure).
We always use a gentle touch and may massage the area to ensure even distribution and natural-looking results.
4. Post-Treatment Care
After the injections:
- You may notice some mild swelling, redness, or bruising, which typically subsides within a few days.
- Cold compresses can help minimize these temporary side effects.
- You’ll be advised to avoid intense physical activity, excessive sun exposure, or touching the treated areas for the first 24 hours. (Make sure to wear your SPF!)
How Long Does the Juvederm Procedure Take?
A Juvederm session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
When Will I See Results?
Results are visible almost immediately, with full effects becoming apparent as any swelling diminishes over the next day or two.
Juvederm offers a simple and effective way to refresh your appearance without surgery, with results lasting from 6 months to 2 years depending on the product and treatment area.
