What You Should Know About Juvederm®:
There are four types of Juvederm®, and each product is made from a modified form of hyaluronic acid.
- Juvederm ® XC
- Juvederm ® Ultra XC
- Juvederm ® Volbella
- Juvederm ® Voluma XC
How Juvederm ® Works
Hyaluronic acid exists naturally in the skin and has the extraordinary ability to attract 1000 times its own weight in water. Hyaluronic acid in the skin provides softness, volume and moisture retention.
How Juvederm ® Can Help You
- Juvederm ® XC – used to treat moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds such as those from the nose to mouth (nasolabial) and mouth to the jaw line (marionette). Juvederm ® XC injected into the mid to deep layers of the skin reduces the evident signs of aging.
- Juvederm ® Ultra XC – shapes and discreetly plumps the lips. Fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth lessen, resulting in a younger-looking appearance.
- Juvederm ® Volbella – provides fullness to genetically thin lips or lips which have shrunk due to the effects of aging. When treated with this product, fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth lessen for a smoother and younger look.
- Juvederm ® Voluma XC – adds volume to age-related flattening and hollowing of the cheeks. Contours of the face are changed. Juvederm ® Voluma XC plumps sunken cheeks and smooths overlying skin. Sagging skin is lifted and you can achieve a younger and more attractive appearance.
