JUVEDERM® ULTRA & ULTRA PLUS
Juvederm® is a new brand of 100% hyaluronic acid-based, long-lasting wrinkle-filling products. The products are highly biocompatible and are absorbed slowly.
Naturally present in the skin, hyaluronic acid preserves the moisture levels in the skin and boosts tone, but the quantity of hyaluronic acid in the dermis decreases with age. As a result, your skin dries out and becomes fragile, and wrinkles begin to appear. The tissues progressively sag and the face begins to appear hollow. Injected into the dermis, Juvederm®, with its high concentration of hyaluronic acid effectively alleviates this hyaluronic acid deficiency.
Areas of Treatment:
- Most commonly used now to replace volume lost due to aging. Also popular for “volume lifting” of the cheeks resulting in a more youthful facial look
- Lips
- Smoker’s lines
- Nasolabial lines
- Marionette lines
- Nose
How Juvederm® Works
Juvederm® is injected directly into the wrinkle; it lifts and instantly fills the line by virtue of the volume it creates. Right from the first injection, the wrinkle is markedly and visibly reduced.
Juvederm® is injected directly into the zones where the tissue has relaxed, thus creating an immediate tightening and volume-enhancing effect. It is often used for cheek and brow lifts.
As a result of its lifting effect, Juvederm® gels offer a realistic, non-surgical alternative to plastic surgery by redefining the facial contours.
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™
The signs of aging aren’t limited to wrinkles. In fact, a key (yet less frequently discussed) sign of aging is loss of fullness in the cheeks. This can be a challenge to correct, with limited surgical and non-surgical solutions available. Fortunately, JUVÉDERM® now has a new product added to their line of leading-edge facial fillers, a product specially formulated to restore facial volume lost over time: JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™.
Thin, tired skin can speak volumes about a person’s age. Signs of aging like sunken cheeks or a sagging chin can add years to a person’s face. These telltale signs of aging can now be addressed with JUVÉDERM®VOLUMA™.
Full cheeks are a key marker of youth. Age-related volume loss can cause the face to lose definition, balance and change shape, all of which can make a person appear older than their years.
People age differently: their skin may deflate (lose fullness or volume), descend (droop or sag) or both. However, few people realize the mid-face is one of the first areas to show the signs of aging – as we lose facial volume, cheeks deflate and descend.
Addressing the need is JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™, the newest facial filler available in the JUVÉDERM® family of hyaluronic acid fillers. The first of its kind, JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ is a hyaluronic acid facial filler specifically made to restore age-related volume loss in the mid-face (the cheeks, cheekbones and around the chin). JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ uses hyaluronic acid, a sugar that occurs naturally in your skin, to instantly restore lost facial volume in the cheeks and contour the chin. JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ also combines with collagen and elastin to improve skin structure and elasticity, and create a smooth natural look. The results are instant, natural looking and can last up to 18 months.1 Plus there’s no downtime – most people resume normal activities immediately.
JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ is an innovative injectable hyaluronic acid facial filler that delivers smooth, natural-looking fullness to sunken cheeks and firmness to a softening jaw line. JUVÉDERM® VOLUMA™ has been reported to last up to 18 months, longer than many other facial fillers.
