Our Juvederm is the most popular collection of hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers in the US. The Juvederm collection features a wide range of products, each made with a unique formulation for different facial concerns and treatment areas. Depending on the consistency, density, and ingredients, Juvederm fillers can fill out the fine lines and nasolabial folds, restore lost facial volume to your cheeks, or enhance your facial contours. Furthermore, the Juvederm products marked with “XC” contain lidocaine, an anesthetic component that numbs the skin upon contact, making them incredibly comfortable and painless.

What Is Juvederm?
Hyaluronic acid is the primary ingredient in our Juvederm dermal fillers in Friendswood. HA is a naturally-occurring component that’s abundantly available in the human skin, especially when we’re young. It draws and retains water molecules, making our skin look hydrated, voluminous, and supple. However, as we grow older, our body’s ability to retain hyaluronic acid gradually diminishes, making our skin look old, tired, and wrinkled. Juvederm products inject synthetic hyaluronic acid underneath the facial tissues, reversing the effects of age and sun damage. They can also enhance our genetically-inherited contours, giving us a sharper jawline or cheekbones.

Juvederm Vollure XC: Treats moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the parentheses lines around the nose and mouth. It’s injected into the facial tissues with loss of facial volume, adding temporary volume to fill out the fine lines.
Juvederm Voluma XC: Treats skin laxity and wrinkles in the midface region caused by the gradual loss of facial volume in the cheeks. It’s injected underneath the facial tissues to restore volume, making your cheeks look full and smooth.

Procedure
The Juvederm treatment takes less than 15 minutes, but your first session might last for up to an hour. Our nurse practitioners discuss your cosmetic goals, review your health history, and examine your facial skin to recommend the ideal formulation. As mentioned earlier, each dermal filler in Friendswood formulation addresses different cosmetic concerns in different areas. Our practitioners curate a personalized treatment for you.
Once the relevant Juvederm formulation is chosen, they’ll mark the treatment areas and apply a numbing gel to ensure comfort. The chosen Juvederm formulation and dose are injected into the targeted facial regions using ultrafine needles. You might feel a pinch as the needle goes in. The number of injections depends on your specific goals. Some patients also opt for multiple Juvederm fillers to address multiple concerns.
Downtime
Juvederm doesn’t involve any downtime. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the injections. You might experience mild redness, swelling, and irritation around the injection sites, but it’s not enough to keep you from work. Most patients opt for Juvederm fillers during their lunch break.
Results
Juvederm produces instant results. Your skin will immediately appear lifted, smooth, and youthful, but you’ll truly appreciate the results when the side effects dissipate in a few days. The longevity of the results varies by treatment area, formulation, dosage, and your body’s ability to metabolize the hyaluronic acid. However, after dermal fillers in Friendswood the results usually last for 6 to 18 months with optimal treatment.
