Juvederm
As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with Juvéderm™ injectable gel, you don’t have to just sit back and let it happen! Juvéderm™ is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid-a (HA), a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. HA aids in creating collagen in the body, giving you supple and healthy skin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Botox
Botulinum toxin, known as its commercial Botox, is among the world’s most used and popular injectable cosmetic treatments. It’s available in almost every part of the world and is less expensive than cosmetic surgery. Here are some of the top questions about injectables like Botox and Juvederm to help you decide:
How do injectables like Juvederm work?
Unlike Botox, Juvederm works immediately and can show results to patients right away. Juvederm is a filler made out of Hyaluronic Acid, which helps give skin more volume and smooth out wrinkles. The injection might give some patients mild bruising or swelling following the procedure, temporarily hiding the results, but it goes away quickly in most cases.
What areas of the face can be treated with injectables?
Injectables can treat any area of the face that needs volume, refinement, and smoothing. Signs of aging can be addressed in all the following cases:
- Brow furrows
- Lip lines
- Nasolabial folds
- Smoker’s lines
- Crow’s feet
- Forehead lines
- Weak chin
- Little or no cheek volume
- Temple depressions
- Weak jawline
- Undereye hollows
- Thin lips
- Marionette lines
How long do injectables last?
Like other treatments, the longevity of injectables like Botox and Juvéderm varies between patients. Factors like the type of injectable matter, as does the quantity and just how much repair is needed on the patient. But, the benefits from injectables like Juvéderm usually last 12-18 months before the patient requires another injection. Lip injections might last less, for about a year only. For longer-lasting results, both men and women are helped by several rounds of injections throughout the years.
Do you need downtime after applying Botox?
Not really. Most patients can go about their daily lives right away after using Botox. Nevertheless, there are a few precautions to take:
- No rubbing or massaging of the injected areas.
- You can use makeup, but be careful not to press or rub your face too hard.
- Wait just a few hours before doing any moderate to heavy physical activity, like working out in the gym, lifting heavy things, or anything that would elevate your heart rate.
