Say goodbye to lines and wrinkles and volume loss with the help of Juvederm! With this unique collection of dermal fillers, you can turn back the clock and achieve the younger-looking appearance you desire.
What is Juvederm?
Juvederm is a collection of dermal fillers composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps maintain hydration and volume in the skin. These dermal fillers can be used in the lips, cheeks, chin, jaw, and temples to address volume loss, diminish the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and contour the face to give you the look you desire.
How Does Juvederm Work?
Through the injection of hyaluronic acid-based gel into targeted areas of the skin, Juvederm works to fill in areas of volume loss and smooth lines and wrinkles. The hyaluronic acid in the formula attracts and retains water in the treatment area, providing moisture and hydration as well as volume and structure.
