Juvederm
With age, we lose fat, muscle and bone, and the skin begins to thin. The cheeks deflate and the face begins to flatten out, the lips thin, skin sags and wrinkles and folds develop.
Juvederm fillers are made of hyaluronic acid (HA) and work well for cosmetic volumizing and contouring. HA fillers are ideal for cosmetic enhancement because HA is biocompatible with the body. In different formulations they can restore lost volume in the midface, plump lips, smooth lines and wrinkles, and enhance skin hydration and smoothness.
HA is a naturally occurring in the body, found in abundance in connective tissues in the skin, joints and eyes. In the skin HA helps to retain moisture, volume and softness by binding with water in the skin. Because hyaluronic acid is a natural substance there is no risk of allergic response to HA fillers. As we age and with sun exposure HA degrades. When the filler breaks down, it is naturally absorbed by the body.
HA fillers are used to temporarily augment soft tissues, hydrate the skin, stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, and restore facial volume. Lines and wrinkles smooth and the skin and cheeks plump for a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
There are five different formulations of Juvederm® available to treat numerous cosmetic problems. They work by attracting and absorbing water under the skin. HA is a major component of collagen and elastin. As a filler, HA stimulates the formation of new collagen. As the filler breaks down the enhanced collagen restores volume and structure.
