Juvedérm is a unique dermal filler containing a natural protein substance that holds water called hyaluronic acid. Not all dermal fillers are like Juvéderm. Juvedérm is bio-identical to the hyaluronic acid found in human skin. Because Juvedérm products are identical to human hyaluronic acid, the rate of allergic reaction is less compared with other injectable dermal fillers that are not bio-identical. 

Juvedérm has an excellent and unique array of densities within the six (6)injectable products: ULTRA, ULTRA PLUS, VOLBELLA, VOLLURE & VOLUMA, VOLUX . Because these product choices vary in water holding capacity, they can help lift, contour, re-shape, fill lines and most importantly restore balance and symmetry to the face, jawline and neck. Juvéderm has a high safety performance, but in the event that it is misplaced or unevenly distributed, fortunately Juvéderm can be dissolved with hyaluronidase – the enzyme. Dissolving dermal fillers with hyaluronidase is performed by a medical doctor. 

UVÉDERM is the #1 selling Hyaluronic Acid dermal filler in the American cosmetic world. Millions of men and women turn to the filler to help them eliminate the signs of wrinkles and fine lines, restore facial symmetry, and plump up areas with age-related volume loss.  

Juvéderm® is a youth-enhancing, non-permanent injection dermal filler that uses a protein naturally found in human skin called hyaluronic acid.  This injectable version of human hyaluronic acid is bio-identical to the protein in human skin that holds water.  It is not foreign to the human body, rather, it is identical which gives it a very low level of complications. 

Cross-linking is directly related to how long the hyaluronic acid in the injection will last, and Juvéderm is 90% cross-linked, so it is the best cross-linking filler on the market. 

There are seven different varieties of Juvederm.  Each formula varies in it’s cross-linking and therefore some products will expand or take in more water and others take in less water. 

The smooth consistency of Juvéderm makes precision injections easier for the skilled medical professional doing the injection and prevents uneven clumping or blotchy skin from the injection. 

Juvederm has lidocaine powder within the gel product, making the discomfort much less for patients, especially in the sensitive lip area. 

Juvéderm helps restore balance to the face, giving you a more youthful and rested face. We specialize in beautiful natural lips that are in balance with the face and bring a feminine beautiful look without looking “done”.  We also specialize in restoring natural contours to the face by lifting cheeks and sculpting and re-contouring the face – so your own face shape is preserved. Our goal is to have you look like you, just a younger rested version of you – without distortion of the face contours. The “ART” of restoring balance to the face and lips is an area where Dr Julie Reil shines. 

Juvéderm XC is a versatile facial filler that incorporates pain-relieving Lidocaine in the injection. This is the “regular” type of Juvéderm and it is primarily used to lift wrinkles, cure unwanted folds, boost weak cheeks, and plump lips. Juvéderm XC is known to have the most dramatic effect on a patient’s lips. It typically lasts between nine months and two years. 

Juvéderm Ultra XC is lip-focused filler that provides a subtle, svelte appeal to the lips and reduces lines in and around the lips. This injection can last for a year or longer. 

Juvéderm Voluma is specifically formulated for use in the larger areas of the cheeks, temples, and nose. It creates a full, round lift in the cheeks and contours the face around the upper zygomatic bone. Juvéderm Voluma also tends to last longest, nearing two years in some patients. 

Juvéderm Vobella is also a lip filler, but it excels at restoring youthful plumpness and vigor to lips that have been made soft and flaccid over time. It is considered the most subtle of the Juvéderm fillers. 

Juvéderm Vollure softens the lines that surround the lips and nose and can last up to eighteen months in some individuals. 

Juvéderm Vollux is specifically for enhancement of the chin and jawline for individuals with a slighter jaw angle or a small chin.  It can also work well for thin athletic individuals who do not have facial fat to fill out their face – giving them some lift along the jowls.
