Juvederm®

How does Juvéderm work?
By injecting Juvéderm, you treat wrinkles by raising or adding volume to them. This FDA approved gel-based filler is administered by injection. Essentially, hyaluronic acid, which absorbs water and adds volume to your skin, is what makes Juvéderm fillers work. Immediately restore your skin’s volume and smooth out wrinkles and folds by injecting this volumizing gel under your skin. A dental office offers the advantage of administering local anesthesia intra-orally, reducing discomfort associated with the procedure.

Do I need Juvéderm or Botox?
Botox and Juvéderm both treat wrinkles and help the anti-aging process in different ways. It is imperative to understand the differences between the procedures.

Frown lines between the brows, forehead wrinkles, neck wrinkles, and crow’s feet near the eyes are some of the areas where Botox works best. With repeated Botox treatments, your frowning and squinting strength will weaken, preventing wrinkles from getting deeper. A typical Botox treatment lasts three to four months.

As well as treating lines around the mouth that form the appearance of parentheses when you smile or laugh, Juvéderm can also treat under-eye bags that leave your face looking tired. Because Juvéderm works by absorbing your own body’s water, its effects increase over time. A single Juvéderm treatment can last up to a year. It works by absorbing your own body’s water.
