What is JUVÉDERM®?

The JUVÉDERM® collection of fillers is the number one selling collection of fillers in the US. Each product in the JUVÉDERM®collection of fillers is made from a modified form of Hyaluronic Acid (HA).   HA is a natural substance in the skin that delivers nutrients, helps the skin retain moisture and softness, and adds volume. 

​

Each product in the JUVÉDERM® collection of fillers adds volume to a different area of the face - without surgery. All JUVÉDERM® fillers are a smooth, crystal-clear gel that are administered by injection by Dr. DiMeola at GLOWAESTHETICS.  Different formulations are approved to either lift cheeks, smooth parentheses lines, smooth vertical lip lines or plump the lips. The results are subtle and long lasting.

What to Expect During a JUVÉDERM®Treatment

At GLOWAESTHETICS, we pride ourselves on superior service and patient satisfaction.  During your JUVÉDERM® appointment, Dr. DiMeola will take your medical history and provide a facial analysis. Be prepared to discuss your aesthetic areas of concern with Dr. DiMeola. This is not a surgical treatment. An actual treatment with JUVÉDERM® injectable gels can take 15 minutes to 60 minutes, depending on which area of your face is being treated. 

​

JUVÉDERM® injectable gels labeled with "XC" contain pain-reducing lidocaine to help manage pain or discomfort during the injection. Most patients report little discomfort.  For additional patient comfort, we are happy to offer an anesthetic cream (please arrive 30 minutes before your treatment) and dental blocks if needed.  

​

You will see results instantly.Results may last one year to two years, with optimal correction and depending on the formula used. Please see each product below to see how long results last with each formula, based on what was observed in clinical studies.

First approved by the FDA in 2006, JUVÉDERM® XC corrects moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as the parentheses lines or ‘smile lines’ around the nose and mouth. JUVÉDERM® XC is injected into areas of facial tissue where moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds occur to temporarily add volume to the skin, which may give the appearance of a smoother surface.  JUVÉDERM® XC lasts up to one year with optimal treatment.

​

JUVÉDERM® ULTRA XC is an injectable gel that temporarily adds more fullness and plumps thin lips—whether your lips have thinned over time or you simply want fuller lips-in adults over the age of 21. JUVÉDERM® ULTRA XC is also approved for smoothing and correcting moderate to severe parentheses lines, such as nasolabial folds (smile lines around the nose and mouth), in adults.  JUVÉDERM® ULTRA XC lasts up to one year, with optimal correction.

JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA®XC is a crystal-clear gel that is injected directly into and around the lips using an ultra-fine needle to temporarily plump the lips for lip augmentation and to smooth the appearance of lines around the mouth. The lidocaine gel improves the comfort of the injection by reducing sensitivity to pain.  JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA®XC lasts up to 1 year, with optimal treatment.

JUVÉDERM VOLLURE™XC is injected into the areas of facial tissue where moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds occur including the "parentheses lines" around the nose and mouth. JUVÉDERM VOLLURE™ XC is designed to temporarily correct facial wrinkles for a smoother appearance to the face for adults over the age of 21.  The clinical study demonstrated JUVÉDERM VOLLURE™ XC lasts up to 18 months, with optimal treatment.

As you age, the cheeks may flatten and the skin may begin to sag. This is caused by natural loss of volume in the cheek area, or what the experts call age-related midface volume loss. JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC is designed to add volume beneath the skin's surface, which provides lift and contour to the cheek area.  JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC provides natural-looking and long-lasting results that last up to 2 years with optimal treatment.
