What Is Juvederm Filler?
Allergan‘s Juvederm is a market-leading filler product. The Juvederm fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin that supplies nutrition, aids in moisture retention and smoothness, and increases volume. This procedure consists of tiny gel injections that increase soft tissue volume in the face. Fillers can enhance the appearance of the cheek, jawline, mouth, eyes, and lips.
How Long Does It Last?
These products are available in a variety of formulations, including. The majority of these fillers last six to eighteen months. Juvederm Ultra Plus and Ultra, which are more moisturizing fillers, can last up to a year. The thicker Juvederm Voluma is the longest-lasting hyaluronic acid filler currently available, lasting approximately two years in most patients. It is perfect for contouring the cheeks and jawline and enhancing chin projection. Volbella, a thinner filler, corrects tiny wrinkles around the lip without puffiness and, despite its fine texture, is likely to last a year or more.
How Does It Work?
This dermal filler contains hyaluronic acid chains that remain in the skin. This molecule draws and holds moisture in the skin, enhancing hydration and keeping the skin plump and healthy. Hyaluronic acid depletes with age, as does collagen, a vital protein that gives skin firmness and support. Injection of hyaluronic acid fillers has also been proven to enhance collagen synthesis in studies.
Facial volume diminishes throughout time due to reduced collagen, changes in the fat pads of the face, changes in our skeletal support, and decreased moisture. It can replace regions that have sagged, hollowed out, or acquired lines and wrinkles, giving your face smoother, more youthful contours. This family also contains fillers to subtly enhance lips, whether your objective is to erase small vertical lines around the lips or to mildly plump deflated lips.
