Juvederm® is a popular dermal filler used in various cosmetic applications. Not all dermal fillers are appropriate for all treatment areas, and it can be difficult to know what’s right for you. Reputable practices like Dr. Rebecca Fitzgerald’s will provide a consultation and discuss which dermal fillers are best for your needs and what you are wanting to achieve. Being informed about your cosmetic choices is always important. Let’s explore what Juvederm is and what areas can be treated with Juvederm.
Juvederm comes in a variety of formulations but in all formulations, it’s considered a “soft” hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. Juvederm is administered through a syringe and injected into areas where you want to fill, lift or define areas of your face.
Juvederm Volbella can enhance the fullness and shape of your lips. Juvederm can also be used to soften any surrounding lip lines. This provides a non-surgical option to lip augmentation without the need for downtime.
Acne, especially severe cystic acne, can cause pitted scars on the face. Acne scars are caused by severe inflammation which can cause actual destruction of skin tissue. These scars leave indentions or “pits” in the skin. Juvederm can help fill out these areas and reduce the appearance of pitting if laser is not a viable option for you. Very careful placement is required to prevent overfilling.
Beyond filling out smaller lines and wrinkles, Juvederm is useful in marionette lines, folds on the side of the mouth, the corners of the mouth, and general wrinkles. Certain formulations (think density) are capable of creating instant “cheekbones” which in some instances help lift lax skin beneath.
Changes in your face as you age can at times seem disheartening but between the wide range of dermal fillers and a skilled injector, you can often easily control the volume required to look as you wish. Dr. Rebecca Fitzgerald offers the dermal filler Juvederm as a non-surgical treatment option for wrinkles and fine lines as well as a defining filler for overall facial contouring.
You’ll will begin the process with a consultation to better help you reach your aesthetic goals. When considering Juvederm or any other dermal filler, it’s essential to understand what’s happening beneath the skin’s surfaces so the right placement ensures a natural result. A master injector makes all the difference. Contact Dr. Fitzgerald’s office at 323-464-8046 today.
