Injectables

JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus is FDA-approved. It is a more dense form of JUVÉDERM® Ultra and therefore has a greater voluminous effect, where cheeks, lips, general folds, and very deep nasolabial folds.

JUVÉDERM® Ultra gel is injected into areas of facial tissue where moderate to severe wrinkles and folds occur. The injected gel adds immediate volume restoring a smoother appearance.

For many of our patients, JUVÉDERM® Ultra is the ideal treatment for the correction of mild to moderate superficial wrinkles, thinning lips, and under eye volume loss.

JUVÉDERM® Ultra is an optimal dermal filler treatment for our patients over the age of 21 who would like to treat minimal to severe nasolabial folds, marionette lines, thinning lips and loss of volume.

Patients with severe allergies to hyaluronic based fillers or lidocaine mixed in the filler, a history of anaphylaxis, an active infection near the site of injection and women who are currently pregnant and/or breastfeeding should not receive JUVÉDERM® Ultra.

Patients should stop taking aspirin, ibuprofen, and fish oil supplements for two weeks prior to injection, to decrease your risk of bruising at the injection site. We suggest that our patients take arnica two days prior to treatment.

Although there is no real downtime for our patients, it is recommended to avoid strenuous activity 24 hours following the injection.

Potential side effects for our patients include: injection-site redness, swelling, pain, tenderness, firmness, lumps/bumps, bruising, discoloration, and itching.

Our patients should see an immediate improvement in the treatment areas. Most patients need one treatment to achieve optimal results.

Our patients should experience results for up to one year.
