JUVÉDERM®

What Is JUVÉDERM®?

The JUVÉDERM® collection of dermal fillers are a great option for treating wrinkles and for plumping sagging or flat areas associated with aging. Most dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid (HA), a sugar found naturally in human skin. These injectable products add volume under the skin to smooth wrinkles, plump lips, add volume to cheeks, and help decrease the appearance of scars. The effects of dermal fillers usually last between six months to two years, depending on the specific product used.

In addition to JUVÉDERM® products, our Austin plastic surgeon also offers the Restylane® line to give patients the broadest selection of safe and effective hyaluronic acid fillers.

How Are JUVÉDERM®? Injections Performed?

JUVÉDERM®? injections are performed in-office by Dr. Holzman. This process begins with a consultation to discuss goals and assess the treatment area. The skin is then cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied for comfort. Using a fine needle, the appropriate type and amount of JUVÉDERM®? filler is carefully injected into the targeted area(s) to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and/or enhance contours. This procedure typically lasts about 15 to 60 minutes, depending on the number of areas treated. Results are often immediate, and most patients require little to no downtime afterward.

How Long Does JUVÉDERM® Last?

JUVÉDERM® results typically last between six months and a year and a half, depending on the specific product used, the treatment area, and individual factors such as metabolism and lifestyle. For instance, JUVÉDERM® Voluma® can last up to two years, while results from JUVÉDERM® Ultra or Volbella® lip enhancement tend to last between six months and one year. As the body gradually breaks down the hyaluronic acid in the filler, periodic touch-up treatments can help maintain a patient’s desired look.

How Much Does JUVÉDERM® Cost?

The cost of JUVÉDERM® can vary depending on the specific formula used, the number of sessions required, and the treatment area. As each patient’s goals and facial anatomy are unique, pricing is typically determined during a personalized consultation with Dr. Holzman. Additional factors, such as the type of JUVÉDERM® product selected and the extent of enhancement desired, can impact the total cost as well. Expertise can also play a significant role in both treatment outcomes and cost of JUVÉDERM®, with experienced injectors generally delivering safer, more natural-looking results.
