Where to apply?
Juvéderm Ultra® has several different compounds depending on the degree of molecular binding (cross-linking). We use the Juvéderm® Voluma for the real deep folds (not for for lip enhancement). Juvéderm® Voluma is an excellent choice if you need more volume in the temporal region, your cheeks or jaw-line.

The average duration of the effect of a treatment with Juvéderm® Voluma is one year. Juvéderm is injected intradermal, i.e. in the upper layer of the skin. The result is visible immediately.
After the treatment the skin is cooled with a cold pack to reduce a possible swelling of the treated area. Hyaluronic Acid is by nature a hygroscopic material that will attract fluid from the surrounding tissue. in most cases your doctor will make a new appointment after 2 or 3 weeks to evaluate the result. If necessary a touch-up can be performed to optimize the initial effect.
Risks and possible complications:
Every wrinkle treatment has a very small risc of an infection or a small bleeding (blue spot). Are you known to have an allergy for lidocaine, xylocaine of procaine, then we will discuss the possibility of using an alternative filler. However, considering the composition of Juvéderm®such a reaction because of other causes is not likely to happen.
In the rare case of an infection you will be treated adequately with an antibiotic.
Sometimes after the administration of the filler small touchable nodules can be felt (but in most cases it is not visible). The origin of these hardenings is not yet properly known. Such irregularities most of the time don’t last long and disappear by itself after a few weeks. A specific after-treatment of these nodules is not necessary.
