Precision treatment to boost volume and erase wrinkles naturally with the Juvéderm® collection of fillers

When precision treatment meets comprehensive services, our neighbors in and around Davie, Florida, have a powerful way to support youthful, healthy skin at every stage of life without invasive surgical interventions. Dermal or soft tissue fillers represent one of the most versatile and popular treatment categories available at Precision Skin Institute. And Juvéderm® stands out as among the most well-recognized of these injectable cosmetic procedures. Dr. Lesley Clark-Loeser and Dr. Marianna Blyumin-Karasik often get asked about Juvéderm®, and we are happy to answer some of those most common questions here.

Question No. 1: What is Juvéderm®?

Juvéderm® is not any one product but a family of distinctive products. Our providers can match you to the best option based on your needs. These fillers are all formulated with hyaluronic acid. HA is a popular type of filler because it is very safe and biocompatible. A “moisture-loving” molecule, HA is naturally present in the skin. As with collagen and elastin, your body produces less HA over time. The resulting dry, leathery texture worsens the look of lines and wrinkles. By replenishing your body’s HA, overall skin quality is improved. And, due to HA’s unique properties, it can also “fill in” and soften lines and wrinkles.

Question No. 2: How is Juvéderm® administered?

When HA binds to water, a gel is rendered. Our highly skilled team injects this gel into specific areas of the face or treatment zones. Once the gel has been injected, it has a cushioning effect. The plumping action of the filler adds volume to depressed or sunken areas while also softening wrinkles and creases.

Question No. 3: What does Juvéderm® treat?

Many aesthetic concerns can be treated non-invasively with our five Juvéderm® products. All are designed to correct signs of environmental damage and aging in the lower portion of the face. Here, we provide a guide to the most appropriate filler based on your specific area of concern:

  • Deflated upper or lower lips and “smoker’s lines” — Juvéderm® Ultra™
  • A thicker alternative to Ultra™ for more dramatic augmentation and longer-lasting results — Juvéderm® Ultra Plus™
  • Poorly defined lips and fine lines around the lips — Juvéderm® Volbella™
  • Moderate to severe oral commissures, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and other wrinkles in the lower face — Juvéderm® Vollure XC™
  • Poorly-contoured “mid-face” or cheek area — Juvéderm® Voluma™

Question No. 4: What can I expect from treatment?

If one of these filler products suits you, we can discuss options for enhanced comfort. Some Juvéderm® products are also formulated with lidocaine. We ensure your experience and safety are a priority. Typically, each treatment session can be completed in 15 to 60 minutes. This is an “instant gratification” procedure, and you notice immediate improvements. Results can last up to 12 to 24 months; however, duration depends on the specific formulation used, where it is used, and other factors.

Question No. 5: Will it look fake?

When in our capable hands, no! It is important to select a provider who is skilled and experienced with injecting Juvéderm® products. Our team has the knowledge and experience to ensure your results look like you—only more refreshed and healthy. By partnering with a qualified provider, the risk of side effects is also minimized.
