What are JUVÉDERM Fillers?
JUVEDÉRM fillers primarily restore lost volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance facial contours. Hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the human body, is the key component of JUVEDÉRM fillers. It plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration and suppleness. As we age, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases, leading to the loss of facial volume and the formation of wrinkles. The hyaluronic acid in the fillers binds with water molecules, creating a plumping effect, which fills in lines and wrinkles while improving skin hydration. The gel-like consistency of JUVEDÉRM ensures a smooth and even distribution, resulting in a natural and youthful look. Since HA naturally occurs in the body, there is a smaller chance of a reaction from using the filler.
Two JUVEDÉRM fillers are approved for injection into the lips for lip augmentation and correction of perioral lines (lines around the mouth) or lip wrinkles in adults over the age of 21:
JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® XC and JUVÉDERM® ULTRA XC
These hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers have gained widespread recognition for their ability to enhance and redefine lips, providing a non-surgical solution to achieving fuller and more youthful-looking lips. The primary objective of JUVÉDERM lip fillers is to add volume, shape, and symmetry to the lips, addressing concerns such as thin lips, fine lines, and asymmetry.
What to Expect at Your Lip Filler Procedure
Administering JUVÉDERM lip fillers is a minimally invasive and quick procedure performed in your Dermatology Provider’s office. Before the treatment, a topical numbing agent may be applied to ensure your comfort. The JUVÉDERM filler is then injected strategically into specific areas of the lips to achieve the desired volume and shape. The procedure is precise, allowing for careful control over the augmentation process.
The hyaluronic acid in JUVÉDERM attracts and retains water molecules, providing an immediate plumping effect to the lips. This results in a smoother appearance, filling fine lines and enhancing the overall lip contour. The gel formulation also integrates with the existing tissues, ensuring a natural look and feel.
One of the advantages of JUVÉDERM lip fillers is their temporary nature. While the duration can vary depending on the specific product used and individual metabolism, results typically last up to a year. Over time, the hyaluronic acid is naturally broken down and absorbed by the body, allowing patients to decide whether to maintain the enhancement or let it gradually diminish.
