Yes, Juvéderm is FDA-approved for adults over 21 and typically requires no allergy testing. While serious complications are rare, common side effects include temporary lumps, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These side effects typically resolve within a few days.

What Happens During the Juvéderm Procedure?

Juvéderm injections take approximately 15-20 minutes and are performed in our office. The filler contains lidocaine to minimize discomfort, but we often apply a topical anesthetic prior to the procedure. Most patients see immediate plumping and wrinkle-smoothing effects, though the final result may take a couple of days to fully settle.

How Long Do Juvéderm Results Last?

The longevity of Juvéderm results varies depending on the type of filler used and the treatment area. On average, results last between 6 to 9 months, with some formulations lasting up to 18 months. Periodic touch-ups and maintenance treatments will help extend your results.

What are the pre treatment care instructions for Juvéderm®?

Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications For at least 1 week before your treatment, avoid medications like aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to minimize the risk of bruising. If you need pain relief, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is acceptable. Stop Supplements Discontinue blood-thinning supplements such as fish oil, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba, garlic, and ginseng for at least 1 week before your treatment to reduce the risk of bruising or bleeding. No Alcohol Avoid alcohol for 24-48 hours before your appointment, as it can increase the likelihood of bruising. Avoid Dental Procedures Refrain from scheduling any dental work (e.g., cleanings, root canals) for 2 weeks before and after your dermal filler treatment to prevent infection risks. Avoid Other Skin Treatments Facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, and other skin procedures should be avoided for at least 1 week before your filler appointment. Shaving If necessary, shave the treatment area the day before your procedure. Do not wax, thread, or use depilatory creams on the treated area. Hydration Drink plenty of water leading up to your treatment to help your skin remain hydrated, which can support the healing process. Eat a Light Meal Eat a light meal before your appointment to avoid feeling light-headed or faint during the procedure. Medical Conditions Inform your provider of any medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are taking, especially if you have a history of cold sores or any skin infections.

What are the post treatment care instructions for Juvéderm®?

Avoid Touching the Area Do not rub, massage, or apply pressure to the treated area for at least 24 hours to prevent the filler from shifting. Swelling & Bruising Mild swelling, redness, and bruising are normal and should subside within a few days to a week. Applying a cold compress for 10-15 minutes at a time can help reduce swelling and discomfort. No Strenuous Activity Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or activities that cause excessive sweating for 24-48 hours after treatment to reduce the risk of swelling and bruising. Avoid Heat Exposure Stay away from hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, and other heat sources for 48 hours after your treatment to prevent additional swelling or irritation. No Alcohol Continue to avoid alcohol for 24-48 hours after your treatment to reduce the risk of swelling and bruising. Makeup Avoid makeup on the treated area for at least 24 hours to minimize the risk of irritation or infection. When you resume makeup, apply it gently and remove it carefully. Stay Hydrated Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, which helps the filler integrate into the skin and settle more effectively. Avoid Sleeping on Your Face For 1-2 nights after treatment, sleep on your back with your head elevated to avoid putting pressure on the treated area. Sun Protection Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 1 week after your treatment and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30+ to protect the treated area from pigmentation issues. Results Timeline You may see immediate results, but the final outcome will be more apparent once initial swelling subsides, typically within 1-2 weeks. The effects of dermal fillers typically last 6-18 months, depending on the type of filler, the treated area, and individual factors. Avoid Other Skin Treatments Do not schedule facials, chemical peels, laser treatments, or other skin treatments for 1-2 weeks after your filler session to avoid irritating the treated area. Monitor for Side Effects While rare, if you notice signs of infection (such as excessive redness, warmth, or discharge), severe pain, or unusual hardness or discoloration of the treated area, contact your provider immediately. Follow-Up Appointments Schedule follow-up appointments as recommended by your provider to evaluate the results and determine if any touch-ups or maintenance treatments are needed.

Juvéderm® Filler

If you’re looking for a non-surgical solution to address wrinkles, facial creases, and volume loss, Juvéderm® filler may be the perfect choice. At My Specialty Wellness, Juvéderm® is a popular injectable for those seeking subtle, natural-looking improvements in their appearance.

One of the key advantages of hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvéderm® is their ability to support the skin while combating the effects of aging. Naturally found in the body, hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, helping to keep the skin hydrated and plump.

What are the Different Types of Juvéderm® Fillers?

The Juvéderm® family includes various formulations, each with a different hyaluronic acid concentration and viscosity. Depending on your skin type and desired results, our dermatologists will determine the best option for you.

SKINVIVE™

SKINVIVE™ is the FIRST and ONLY FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) microdroplet injectable in the US to improve skin smoothness of the cheeks. This product increases hydration to improve skin smoothness and provide a lasting glow for up to 6 months with optimal treatment.

JUVÉDERM® Ultra

Perfect for adding shape, definition and volume to lips.

JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus

Designed to treat moderate to severe lines throughout the face, such as nasolabial folds or marionette lines.

JUVÉDERM® Voluma®

Primarily used to augment the cheeks and mid-face, providing a lifted, youthful appearance. Can also be injected into the temple area to add volume and create a smooth transition from the cheekbone to the forehead.

JUVÉDERM® Volbella®️

Specifically designed for injection into the lips for lip augmentation and correction of perioral lines, and for injection into the under eye tear troughs to improve the appearance of under eye hollowness.

JUVÉDERM® Vollure®

Tailored for moderate to severe lines around the nose and mouth, offering a balanced, natural look.

JUVÉDERM® Volux®

The first hyaluronic acid-based injectable filler approved by the FDA that specifically targets the jawline and chin to enhance contour and definition.

Because Juvéderm® is biocompatible, the risk of adverse side effects is minimal. Additionally, the filler can be easily dissolved if you’re not completely satisfied with the results. However, when administered by an expert, Juvéderm® can effectively correct signs of aging, including sun damage, and can even be used as a preventative measure to maintain smooth, youthful skin.

How Does Juvéderm® Filler Work?

Juvéderm® injections temporarily restore volume, improve mid-face volume loss, and smooth out fine lines and deeper wrinkles. The hyaluronic acid in the filler restores the skin’s support structure, offering a more youthful appearance by smoothing out facial lines and creases.

Am I a Good Candidate for Juvéderm®?

Juvéderm® may be ideal for individuals who want to improve:

Age-related volume loss
Hollow or sunken cheeks
Smile lines or nasolabial folds
Shallow contours or sagging jawline
Deep marionette lines
Vertical lip lines or thin lips
Wrinkled or dehydrated lips
Small chin
