JUVÉDERM™
JUVÉDERM™ is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler that provides a smooth, long-lasting correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. Hyaluronic acid, is a naturally occurring, biodegradable complex sugar found in the human body and in all living animals. Among other things, hyaluronic acid hydrates the skin and adds volume, contributing to the overall appearance of the skin.
JUVÉDERM™ Dermal Fillers
Collagen, Restylane, Hylaform, Sculptra and JUVÉDERM™ are kinds of dermal fillers that can be used to contour the face. JUVÉDERM™ dermal fillers can be administered in a smooth-flowing injection, providing physicians with a high level of control for individualized, tailored facial contouring and for achieving a smooth and natural look.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved three different formulations for JUVÉDERM™#153;, providing physicians with the flexibility to tailor each treatment to the particular needs of the patient.
The three forms of JUVÉDERM™ are:
All other currently approved hyaluronic acid dermal fillers utilize a gel particle suspension formulation. These gel particles can be seen under magnification as opposed to the smoother formulation used in JUVÉDERM™.
JUVÉDERM™ Treatments & Injections
The ability of cells to produce hyaluronic acid diminishes with age, often resulting in the formation of facial wrinkles and folds as the skin loses volume. Administered in small doses by intradermal injection of JUVÉDERM™ directly into moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the folds running from the sides of the bottom of the nose to the outer corners of the mouth), temporarily filling and augmenting the treated area.
In addition, the JUVÉDERM™ treatments contain the highest concentration of non-animal, cross-linked hyaluronic acid of any dermal filler currently available. These unique attributes provide optimal results with a single treatment in the majority of patients and deliver sustained results for up to six months or longer.
How JUVÉDERM™ For Facial Wrinkles And Skin Folds Works The JUVÉDERM™ fillers are the only hyaluronic acid dermal fillers developed using the proprietary Hylacross technology, a technologically advanced manufacturing process that results in a malleable, smooth gel that flows easily into the skin and creates a smooth, natural look and feel.
The three product formulations include:
− JUVÉDERM™ ULTRA, a highly cross-linked formulation for more versatility in contouring and volumizing of facial wrinkles and folds;
− JUVÉDERM™ ULTRA PLUS, a more highly cross-linked robust formulation for volumizing and correction of deeper folds and wrinkles; and
− JUVÉDERM™ dermal filler 30, a highly cross-linked formulation for subtle correction of facial wrinkles and folds.
