The Juvederm family of injectable dermal fillers includes a variety of products designed to address a wide range of anti-aging concerns and aesthetic goals. These nonsurgical fillers are formulated to stimulate the skin’s natural levels of hyaluronic acid, which helps replenish a person’s youthful appearance by adding volume and smoothing out wrinkles and lines.
Juvederm is a clear gel hyaluronic acid facial filler that’s injected beneath the skin’s surface. The filler works by integrating into the skin’s dermal tissue and then drawing and binding to water molecules to help retain its volume. After a few treatments, the filler is gradually degraded by the body’s own natural process, disappearing without any residue.
During treatment, a skilled injector administers the filler through a series of injections using an ultra-fine needle. Many formulas in the Juvederm family include lidocaine, which numbs the skin to minimize patient discomfort during treatment.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that’s present in the human body and can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water. The molecule is also responsible for delivering nutrients to the skin and hydrating it.
Both Restylane and Juvederm use hyaluronic acid to add volume to the Juvederm specials chandler az face. HA is a natural humectant that attracts and holds moisture, which gives the skin an attractive, plump, youthful appearance.
In addition, hyaluronic acid can help improve skin tone and texture by providing an increased supply of collagen, which in turn leads to firmer and more elastic skin. Both HA-based fillers are nonsurgical and minimally invasive, so patients can enjoy long-lasting results with little downtime or recovery time.
