As we get older, our skin loses hyaluronic acid (HA) – a substance which occurs naturally in the body and serves to add volume to the skin while keeping it soft, supple and moisturized.

As we get older, our skin loses hyaluronic acid (HA) – a substance which occurs naturally in the body and serves to add volume to the skin while keeping it soft, supple and moisturized. If you’ve begun to notice undesired changes in your facial skin – such as wrinkles, fine lines and diminished shape/volume – loss of HA likely has a lot to do with it. Luckily, there is a solution called Juvederm which is designed to replenish the skin and reverse these effects. What is Juvederm and how can it help you achieve smoother, fuller, younger looking skin? Keep reading to find out.

What Is Juvederm? Lift, Contour, Plump or Smooth Skin

Juvederm is a line of injectable dermal filler products, all of which contain a modified form of hyaluronic acid. A few possible uses for Juvederm include lifting and restoring volume to the cheek area, plumping and reducing fine lines in the lips and smoothing facial folds.

Here is a short introduction to how Juvederm products can help patients target various skin concerns related to aging and loss of HA:

  • Juvederm Voluma XC – Created especially for the cheek area, Juvederm Voluma corrects age-related midface volume loss. It adds lift and contour to the cheek area.
  • Juvederm Vollure – Formulated with revolutionary Vycross technology, this filler from Juvederm delivers a combination of low and high molecular weight HA to the skin. This treatment works to smooth facial folds and lasts for up to 18 months.
  • Juvederm Volbella – For individuals who desire fuller, more shapely lips, Juvederm Volbella is a safe and highly effective solution. Producing results that will last for up to a year, this filler will diminish fine vertical lip lines while plumping the lips.
  • Juvederm Ultra – There are several possible applications for this product, including lip augmentation and restoration of facial volume. Patients can expect their results to last up to 12 months.

When administered correctly, Juvederm injectable products will provide long-lasting results with minimal risk of serious side effects. To ensure that you receive only authentic Juvederm products and get the best possible results from these fillers, it is important to visit a board-certified dermatologist’s office for this cosmetic treatment.
