JUVÉDERM® is an injectable wrinkle filler used to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. By replacing lost volume, the hyaluronic acid in Juvederm quickly corrects wrinkles with a simple injection.

Juvederm® comes in several different formulas to correct wrinkles of varying severity. The latest formula, Juvederm Ultra XC, contains lidocaine for a more comfortable injection.

Is JUVÉDERM® Right for You?

JUVÉDERM® is recommended for patients of all skin colors and skin types, for treatments such as:

  • Facial wrinkles and folds
  • Thin lips
  • Marionette lines
  • Hollow areas in the mid-face

JUVÉDERM® Treatment

Placement for JUVÉDERM® is determined after carefully evaluating the wrinkles present on your face. If necessary, areas to be treated may be numbed with a topical anesthetic to make the procedure comfortable. Using a fine needle and special technique, your plastic surgeon injects JUVÉDERM® to correct the contour irregularities present on your skin.

For most patients, the results of JUVÉDERM® last 9-12 months. You will need touch-ups and repeat treatments to maintain skin volume and wrinkle correction over the years.
