Juvederm®
Juvederm® is an injectable gel formulation that adds volume to the face and helps minimize the appearance of wrinkles and folds. Juvederm® is made from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. As hyaluronic acid diminishes over time, wrinkles and folds appear. Juvederm® helps by restoring hyaluronic acid, hydrating the skin and adding volume. Juvederm® XC contains lidocaine so patients experience less discomfort during treatment. Juvederm® injections can be done during an office visit with Dr. Doezie. During your visit, Dr. Doezie will:
- Ask your doctor about your medical history including allergies
- Examine the soft tissue of your face and determine your treatment requirements
- Consider the use of anesthesia, although it is not required
- Inject Juvederm® into the treatment areas
- Gently message and smooth the treatment areas
Currently Juvederm® is the only hyaluronic acid filler FDA approved to last up to 1 year. Read more about Juvederm®
