Juvederm
What is Juvederm?
As we age, our skin loses elasticity and volume, leading to unwelcome lines and wrinkles. JUVÉDERM® XC is the first and only non-surgical hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA-approved to instantly smooth moderate to severe wrinkles around your nose and mouth for up to one year with optimal treatment.
At the Forefront Dermatology, formerly Asarch Dermatology, we are proud to be preferred providers for treatment with Juvéderm dermal filler in Denver. Our Providers are specially trained injectors at the Allergen Diamond Level, placing them in the top 2% of all injectors in the country!
The Forefront Dermatology, formerly Asarch Dermatology’s medical team of specialized and certified professionals individually assess each person’s facial structure and customize treatment options for the best and most natural results.
What are the Benefits of Juvederm?
There are many benefits of Juvederm injections, such as the ones listed below:
- Diminish smile lines (aka parentheses)
- Minimize lines on the corners of your mouth
- Lessen “marionette” lines
- Reduce the depth of vertical lip Lines
- Enhance contours where volume loss has occurred
Are Juvéderm injections painful?
We apply topical numbing cream prior to your session, so these injections aren’t painful at all.
Is Juvéderm safe?
Juvéderm is made from hyaluronic acid. That’s why it is known as a “natural filler.” Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body (and in most mammals). Its job is to hydrate, plump, and firm the skin. Because it is basically hyaluronic acid, reactions to Juvéderm are quite rare.
Plus, should you not like the look of the area where you had Juvéderm injected, we can simply inject an enzyme known as hyaluronidase and it instantly degrades the hyaluronic acid and reverses the effect.
The FDA has researched and approved Juvéderm for cosmetic use. These are safe, satisfying treatments for our Forefront Dermatology, formerly Asarch Dermatology patients.
What areas can be treated with Juvéderm?
The various Juvéderm fillers focus on areas from the cheeks, down through the mouth area, and the lips. These are the individual fillers and their treatment areas:
Juvéderm® XC
Juvéderm® XC adds volume beneath the skin to smooth these lines and folds.
Juvéderm Voluma® XC
Juvéderm Voluma® XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin’s surface to lift and contour the cheek area. Juvéderm Voluma® XC can provide you a subtle lift and improved contour for up to two years with optimal treatment. We are proud to offer Juvéderm Voluma® XC treatments!
Consider Voluma to:
- Restore volume to the cheek area
- Firm skin for an improved profile
- Subtly lift sagging skin
Juvéderm® Ultra XC
Juvéderm® Ultra XC provides or returns fullness and fills the vertical wrinkles that form on our lips.
Juvéderm® Ultra Plus XC
Juvéderm® Ultra Plus XC adds volume to the lips and areas around the mouth.
Juvéderm Volbella® XC
Juvéderm Volbella® XC is perfect for adding subtle volume and shape to the lips. Plus, it erases the vertical lines, known as barcode lines. With JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® XC, there is now a solution available for patients bothered specifically by lines around the lips. We are proud to announce that our office carries VOLBELLA ® XC.
Juvéderm Vollure® XC
Juvederm Vollure® XC is designed for the correction of moderate to deep creases and wrinkles such as nasolabial folds running from the nose down to the corners of the mouth, and parentheses lines framing the mouth.
what are the side effects of Juvéderm fillers?
The main risk or side effects are slight swelling and redness at the injection sites. This usually passes within a few hours. Occasionally, lumps can form in the injected area, but these can usually be smoothed manually. If not, injecting hyaluronidase (as mentioned above) instantly eliminates the lump.
What results can I expect with the various Juvéderm fillers?
As soon as the filler is injected, the hyaluronic acid binds with nearby water molecules to plump and firm the area. The added volume pushes the skin upward and erases the wrinkle, crease, or area of lost volume. You walk into our beautiful Englewood offices and you walk out without the wrinkles or creases.
How Long Does a Juvéderm Treatment Take?
Having an area of volume loss filled with Juvéderm is simple and takes just 15-30 minutes. For most of our patients, we apply topical numbing cream prior to your injections to alleviate any discomfort, so you need to allow 30 minutes or so for that to take effect. It’s a good idea to plan for about an hour for your total Juvéderm session at Forefront Dermatology, formerly Asarch Dermatology.
