In aesthetic dermatology, few brand names carry as much weight as JUVÉDERM. The popular dermal filler has become an industry titan and the go-to solution for smoothing wrinkles, facial contouring, and restoring a youthful appearance. In a crowded industry, JUVÉDERM stands out year after year due to its reliable and effective ingredient list. The proof is in the science.
How Hyaluronic Acid Steals The Show
The primary ingredient in JUVÉDERM is Hyaluronic acid (HA). Sound familiar? Here’s why.
HA is a naturally occurring substance in the human body found in the skin, connective tissues, and eyes. Its primary function is to retain water, which helps keep tissues well-lubricated. It also can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it a powerful hydrating agent for the skin. In recent years, these properties have even helped it to become a staple ingredient in the skincare industry.
As we age, our skin’s natural hyaluronic acid levels decrease, leading to a loss of moisture and volume in the skin. This reduction contributes to the formation of wrinkles, fine lines, and a general loss of firmness and volume. JUVÉDERM uses hyaluronic acid to rejuvenate the skin and restore volume.
How JUVÉDERM Works
When injected into the skin, JUVÉDERM fillers introduce hyaluronic acid directly to the treated area. The HA molecules bind with water, creating a plumping effect that —as the name suggests — literally fills in wrinkles and adds volume to the skin.
The minimally invasive procedure provides immediate results, with noticeable improvements right away. Over time, the hyaluronic acid in JUVÉDERM continues to attract and retain moisture, further enhancing the skin’s hydration and elasticity. It’s one of our most popular injectables for a reason.
Different Types of JUVÉDERM Fillers
Still, not all JUVÉDERM is the same. We offer a wide range of fillers, each designed to address specific aesthetic concerns and areas of the face.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA XC
VOLUMA XC is specifically formulated to add volume to the cheek area. As we age, we lose volume in our cheeks, leading to a sunken or hollow appearance. VOLUMA XC gives the cheeks a fuller, more youthful look. It also enhances the chin and jawline for that “snatched” profile.
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA XC
VOLBELLA XC is designed for the mouth area. We use it for lip augmentation and to treat the fine lines that form around your mouth called perioral lines. This filler has a smoother consistency, making it ideal for adding subtle volume and definition to the lips without creating an overly plumped look.
JUVÉDERM Ultra XC
Ultra XC is a versatile filler used for lip augmentation and treating moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the lines running from the nose to the corners of the mouth). Its formulation balances volume and flexibility, allowing for natural-looking enhancements.
During your appointment, we’ll discuss your specific aesthetic goals and the areas you wish to address to determine which JUVÉDERM makes the most sense.
This non-surgical solution is a great way to enhance your natural beauty, but remember, choosing a provider you trust is the most important part of the process — think of dermal filler like paint and the injector as the painter. Anyone can purchase paint, not everyone is an artist.
