Experience the next generation in hyaluronic acid dermal fillers.

With Juvederm . . .
Approved by the FDA in June 2006, this dermal filler is a next generation hyaluronic acid filler. It contains the highest concentration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid of any dermal filler currently available. These attributes provide optimal results with a single treatment of Juvederm in the majority of patients. It delivers sustained results for up to 6 - 12 months. In some facial areas you can boost effect duration by using in combination with Botox.

In addition, Juvederm is the only hyaluronic acid dermal filler developed using a proprietary, technologically advanced manufacturing process that results in a malleable smooth gel that flows easily into the skin, creating a smooth, natural look and feel. All other currently approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers utilize a gel particle suspension formulation.

Juvederm is an excellent treatment for:

• Lip enhancement
• Deep folds
• Facial lines
• Wrinkle correction
• Volume augmentation of the lips
• Shaping facial contours (such as cheeks and chin correcting)
• Smile lines (correcting thin, superficial lines around the eyes, mouth and forehead)

What makes Juvederm different from other dermal fillers?
Juvéderm injectable gel employs its unique manufacturing process to provide the highest concentration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid of any currently available hyaluronic acid dermal filler for long-lasting results. This advanced manufacturing process works to create a smooth consistency gel that flows easily into the skin and provides a smooth, natural look and feel. All other currently approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are made of granular consistency gels. And, Juvéderm is the first hyaluronic acid dermal filler that has demonstrated its safety and effectiveness in persons of color.

What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in all mammals that helps to hydrate and add volume to your skin. In addition to its use as an aesthetic treatment, hyaluronic acid has also been used for more than 20 years for injection into arthritic joints to aid movement, as well as for eye surgeries and wound repair.

What is cross-linked hyaluronic acid?
“Uncross-linked” hyaluronic acid in its natural form is in a liquid state. “Cross-linking” is the process through which hyaluronic acid is made into a gel product that can be injected into the skin for long-lasting results.
