Juvéderm Ultra XC in California
Juvederm is a safe and natural based cosmetic dermal filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct facial wrinkles and folds like the nasolabial folds. Juvéderm is also used to fill the lips for a fuller, more youthful effect. Under eyes and tear, troughs can be treated with the injectable filler Restylane.
Depending on the area treated, results may last up to one year.
It is recommended you make your Filler Appointment as least two weeks in advance of any special events to ensure the best possible and full result.
You’ll be asked to avoid alcohol, blood thinners, Ibuprofen, and certain supplements at least 48 hours prior to treatment to avoid increased bruising or bleeding.
You’ll be asked to confirm it has been at least a week since you last used retinol or had any prolonged sun exposure.
Treatments usually last around 1 hour.
Facial Filler is injected with a fine needle, in areas that need additional volume. All of our facial fillers contain a small amount of lidocaine (a local anesthesia), which numb the area to minimize discomfort.
Depending on the number of treatment areas, you can expect to use 1-4 syringes of filler.
It takes around 2 weeks for full treatment effects to appear. With results lasting 9-12 months.
You may experience tenderness, swelling, pain, or bruising at the injection site but this should subside after a few days. You can take acetaminophen to help with any discomfort, as well as arnica tablets or gel for possible swelling and bruising.
After treatment it is recommended to avoid alcohol, laying down, any strenuous exercise, and manipulation of the area post treatment.
