| The
key to healthy looking skin is the abundance of
two very important substances, collagen and hyaluronic
acid. They support your skin and keep it looking
healthy and smooth.
Hyaluronic acid as a natural sugar found in living
cells that attracts and binds water hydrating
the skin and providing volume.
Collagen is a protein that provides structural
support for your skin.
Your supply of natural collagen depletes as you
age. The procedure of injecting a natural substance
into your skin will instantly erase wrinkles and
will lift and increase your lip border.
In addition to BOTOX Cosmetic injections, we
also offer Juvederm a cosmetic dermal filler.
Juvederm can reduce the appearance of fine lines
and wrinkles in the forehead, cheeks, chin, and
around the lips and mouth.
The treatments take approximately 30 minutes,
while the results may last up to several months.
What is Juvederm?
- Juvederm is a ‘next generation’
family of smooth, long-lasting gel dermal fillers,
and the latest advance in hyaluronic acid cosmetic
filler technology.
- Juvederm is made of hyaluronic acid, which
is a natural substance that already exists in
the human body.
- Since it is not created from an animal source,
there is little chance of allergic reaction.
- Juvederm does not require any type of skin
testing, so treatment can be performed the same
day as your initial consultation.
How does it work?
- In the body, hyaluronic acid fills the space
between collagen and elastin fibers of the skin.
It is present in all living cells; attracting
and binding water, hydrating and giving the
skin smoothness and volume. As our body ages,
the ability of the body’s cells to manufacture
its own hyaluronic acid is diminished, resulting
in the loss of skin volume, producing folds
and wrinkles.
What is the difference between Juvederm
and other popular hyaluronic fillers?
- Juvederm has the highest concentration of
hyaluronic acid, and is produced with a special
formulation process that makes it smoother than
that of other popular gels.
- The combination of the higher concentration
of hyaluronic acid and the smoother formulation
make Juvederm long-lasting
- Juvederm is gradually absorbed naturally into
the body.
