6 Uses for JUVÉDERM®
Over time, the skin on your body tends to lose some of its elasticity and volume. When this happens, the skin hangs more loosely, sags, and develops wrinkles. This can cause you to look much older than you are, which is not ideal. Thankfully, JUVÉDERM® can help reverse the effects of aging for patients in Montreal.
JUVÉDERM, along with similar dermal injectables like Restylane®, is a versatile product that can deliver immediate results with a simple treatment.
Your cosmetic surgeon will apply a local numbing cream to the injection site. After the numbing has taken effect, they simply inject the JUVÉDERM into the skin. The whole procedure usually takes about 30 minutes or less to complete.
Different people show different signs of aging. Some people will have lots of wrinkles and fine lines in one part of their face and smooth skin in another. Other people may contend with sagging skin and deep wrinkles around their mouths. And of course, some individuals will struggle with a wide assortment of aging signs.
JUVÉDERM can treat a very wide array of these signs of aging, including:
1. Crows feet
Those fine wrinkles that radiate out from the outer corners of your eyes can be hard to ignore. Fortunately, they can be easily filled with JUVÉDERM.
2. Forehead wrinkles
Every time you raise your eyebrows, it contributes to wrinkles across your forehead, but Juvederm can smooth them out for an even forehead.
3. Eyebrows
Short, vertical lines in between your eyebrows can make it look like you are always scowling, even when you are in a good mood. JUVÉDERM works well to fill these wrinkles too.
4. “Marionette” lines
These are the vertical wrinkles that run from the corners of your mouth down to your jawline, just like the seams in a marionette puppet – hence the name. If these are a problem for you, JUVÉDERM might be the answer.
5. Nasolabial folds
These are the folds that run from the edge of the nose down to the corners of your mouth. With age, they can become some of the deepest wrinkles on the face.
6. Sunken cheeks
JUVÉDERM is not just for wrinkles and fine lines. If you have lost volume in your cheeks and areas of your face look “hollow,” then JUVÉDERM can help restore volume.
How does JUVÉDERM accomplish all of this? The secret lies with its key ingredient: hyaluronic acid. This is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. It plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration and collagen production. As we age, we have less hyaluronic acid present in our skin. Dermal fillers with hyaluronic acid like JUVÉDERM can help restore lost hydration.
