What is Juvéderm?

Juvéderm is a family of dermal fillers with hyaluronic acid as its base. Hyaluronic acid is a complex sugar found naturally in the body, which supports the underlying dermal structure to boost skin elasticity and give skin its smooth, supple appearance. Over time, levels of hyaluronic acid diminish, leading to skin dryness and outward signs of aging. By restoring hyaluronic acid to the tissue, we can effectively reverse the effects of time while increasing skin hydration. The synthetic form of hyaluronic acid found in Juvéderm products is safe for the skin and can be used for any skin tone and type to achieve the desired cosmetic results.

The smooth gel of the Juvéderm range offers a naturally beautiful result no matter where in the face it is administered. The filler is injected into the underlying dermal structure, where it will restore support to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and plump areas of the skin from the inside out. The wide range of formulations allows for customization of the treatment to your particular concerns and aesthetic goals. The doctors at Lickstein Plastic Surgery will assess your specific issues to determine which Juvéderm product will work the best for you.

Cosmetic Consultation at Lickstein Plastic Surgery

The Juvéderm Family

Juvederm offers a variety of products to address a multitude of cosmetic concerns:

SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®

Skinvive by Juvéderm is a specialized dermal filler designed to enhance facial skin smoothness, particularly focusing on the cheeks. Skinvive works by injecting a microdroplet gel into the skin, which effectively hydrates and smooths the targeted areas for up to six months. This FDA-approved treatment is formulated for those desiring a more youthful and radiant skin texture and is ideal for those looking to enhance facial skin texture, improve their skin quality, and rejuvenate their overall facial appearance.

Juvéderm XC

The original Juvéderm formulation is still the preferred choice for correcting moderate to severe lines around the nose and mouth, including nasolabial folds, smile lines and marionette lines. Positive results achieved with Juvéderm XC typically last about one year.

Juvéderm Ultra XC

In addition to treating the same lines addressed by Juvéderm XC, this formulation can be used to add a subtle fullness to the lips as well. The treatment works for patients who have never been satisfied with the appearance of their lips, or those that have seen thinning and other changes over time. Results of Juvéderm Ultra XC also last about one year.

Juvéderm Voluma XC

Voluma XC is a unique product that addresses the loss of volume in the mid-face that can cause a hollow, aged appearance. The thicker formulation is designed to restore plumpness to this area while enhancing the definition of the cheeks for a more youthful facial profile. The additional volume offered by Voluma XC usually lasts about two years.

Juvéderm Volbella XC

Volbella XC is another option in lip plumping that provides subtle volume to lips that never had enough fullness or lost plumpness and definition over time. In addition, this formulation has a smooth consistency to diminish fine vertical lines that tend to form above the upper lip, known as perioral lines or lipstick lines. When Volbella is administered correctly, the results will last up to one year.

Juvéderm Vollure XC

Vollure XC is one of the newest additions to the Juvéderm line and offers another option for patients looking to address more severe lines around the nose and mouth. The formulation can be injected deeper into the dermal tissue to provide the greatest benefit to reverse these advanced signs of aging. Results from a Vollure XC treatment should last up to 18 months.

Juvéderm Volux

Juvéderm Volux is dermal filler specially formulated to treat the jawline and chin and is ideal for improving facial harmony. Volux can be used to create more feminine facial balance, and maintain an oval or heart shaped appearance. Juvederm Volux is also used to achieve a more chiseled or masculine appearing jawline, and to treat a recessed chin. This new FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler is highly cohesive, long-lasting, and results are visible for approximately 18-24 months.

 


 

Juvéderm XC and Juvéderm Ultra XC both feature Hylacross technology, which cross-links hyaluronic acid molecules of the same size for a more natural result as the formulation spreads into the treatment area. Voluma XC, Volbella XC and Vollure XC all contain Vycross technology. This new method mixes different weights of hyaluronic acid molecules for deeper treatments with greater staying power. As an experienced injector of all the Juvéderm products, our doctors will be able to recommend the product that will provide you with the best results, based on the treatment location and the severity of your aging symptoms.

Juvéderm products all contain lidocaine, a numbing agent that makes the injections more comfortable for the patient. These products have all be approved for use in adult patients age 21 and over.

Quick Procedure, Quick Results

The Lickstein Plastic Surgery doctors perform injectable treatments in our Palm Beach Gardens office and most procedures take 30 minutes or less to complete. Injections are carefully placed throughout the treatment area to ensure an even, natural result. Patients can return to their regular activities as soon as the treatment is over, with little visible indication they just had a cosmetic procedure performed. Some patients may experience mild bruising or swelling around the injections sites, particularly when the lips are treated. However, these side effects can be concealed under makeup in most cases and will dissipate within a matter of hours or days.

We believe the best results are born from an in-depth discussion of patient goals, followed by a customized treatment plan.
