The Right Cosmetic Treatment Solution
Since 2006, Juvéderm has transformed patients' faces and made them look and feel younger. The gel-like formula is a dermal filler made from hyaluronic acid. Various types of Juvéderm on the market can treat patients' concerns about their faces. Doctors administer this filler to plump lips, fill in cheeks, smooth deep wrinkles, and erase facial fine lines.
Patients showing early signs of aging may benefit from this treatment. It recommended that patients be in good health and seek to enhance their appearance subtly. Patients with severe scarring, sagging skin, or skin infections may not get the desired results. Our oral surgeon and team can help patients determine which treatment option will best meet their needs.

The Benefits of Juvéderm
Many different types of cosmetic treatments give the face a brighter and more refreshed look. Juvéderm has the benefit of being minimally invasive. Also, it is more cost-effective than more intense surgical procedures. Today, formulas have the added benefit of incorporating the numbing agent lidocaine, which according to a study from the Clinical, Cosmetic, and Investigational Dermatology Journal , reduces much of the discomfort of injectable fillers.
Patients who choose Juvéderm are typically pleased with how natural it looks. This treatment gives the face a subtle, brighter look without dramatically changing the shape. Another benefit of the treatment is that it is not permanent. Patients who do not love their results can wait for the ingredients to wear off over a few months and for their face and skin to return to their original state.

What To Expect With Juvéderm
Our process of treatment starts with reviewing our patients about their goals for cosmetic treatment and making a plan to reach those goals. Here is what to expect from the Juvéderm treatment process:
- Preparing for Treatment: The initial consultation begins with a review of the patient’s medical history. Our staff will evaluate a patient’s case to determine if Juvéderm is right for them. The oral surgeon will then talk to the patient about where to use the treatment and make a plan.
- Treatment Day: Before coming into the office for the injections, patients should stop taking medications like blood thinners and ibuprofen. The oral surgeon will mark the areas for treatment and begin injecting Juvéderm into the skin. The process typically takes about 15 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of treatment spots.
- After the Injections: Patients should avoid sun exposure, strenuous exercise, makeup, and alcohol for 24 hours after treatment. There may be some redness, swelling, itching, or minor discomfort for a few days. Many patients see results right away. Patients who appreciate their results usually return for their next treatment six months to two years later.

Juvéderm Treatment at Home
Unfortunately, there have been reports of patients undergoing "discount" Juvéderm treatments out of private homes. Beware of these offers and understand that Juvéderm is not something to administer at a home party. These situations may lead to adverse reactions, poor results, infections, or worse. Patients should only receive Juvéderm from licensed medical practitioners to ensure safety. Our oral surgeon can help guide the patient through the treatment process and ensure everything goes smoothly.
According to a study from the International Journal of Toxicology, hyaluronic acid, the active ingredient in Juvéderm, is a proven and safe method for dermal fillers. The study showed no adverse reactions in patients using injectable fillers with this ingredient. The study also found no links between hyaluronic acid and health problems.

Frequently Asked Questions About Juvéderm
Q. How long does Juvéderm last?
A. Juvéderm results vary, depending on each individual's case and their skin condition. In some cases, the treatment lasts for up to two years. Patients who get on a regular routine of topping off their treatment every six months or so report better results.
Q. Does Juvéderm hurt?
A. Juvéderm contains a small amount of lidocaine, which helps numb the slight pain some patients feel during injections. Some patients may feel more pain depending on the injection site. The minor discomfort typically goes away quickly once the lidocaine from the injection takes effect.
Q. How much does Juvéderm cost?
A. Medical professionals price Juvéderm injections by syringe. Patients who get more syringes of the ingredient or multiple treatment sites may pay more. It is important to understand that home Juvéderm practitioners who offer it at deep discounts may not have a license, or they may use counterfeit drugs.
Q. Am I the right age to get Juvéderm?
A. Unlike some other cosmetic procedures, Juvéderm is popular with adults of all ages. Adding volume to the lips or cheeks is not necessarily something related to fighting aging skin. The manufacturer recommends that patients be at least 21 years old.
Q. What will Juvéderm feel like after injection?
A. After the initial injection, the oral surgeon briefly massages the filler into the skin. Once the ingredient settles into the skin, it appears plumper and softer. Lips may feel more solid and fuller with a dermal filler.
