Juvéderm® Fillers

Juvéderm® is one of the top brands of hyaluronic acid fillers, offering a wide range of fillers for moderate to severe facial wrinkles and volume loss in different areas of the face. Patients who want to restore youthful skin and enhance their facial contours can benefit from Juvéderm in Atlanta, GA.

What is Juvéderm®?

Juvéderm® is a dermal filler created to help soften the look of lines and wrinkles and restore areas of the face that have lost youthful volume. It is made with hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that stimulates the production of connective tissue that plumps the skin. Hyaluronic acid also keeps the skin hydrated, giving it a radiant glow that enhances your youthful appearance.

At our office, we offer several Juvéderm® fillers, including:

Juvéderm Vollure®

The soft and flexible gel filler that your doctor uses to instantly smooth away wrinkles around your mouth and nose, including nasolabial folds (smile lines).

Juvéderm Voluma® XC

Used to create a subtle lift, address age-related volume loss in the cheeks, and build structure in the chin for a non-surgical chin augmentation.  This filler is proven to last up to 2 years in the cheek area on patients over 21 years of age.

Juvéderm Volbella®

Adds subtle volume to lips and softens the appearance of vertical lip lines and perioral lines. Can also be used to treat under-eye hollows.

Juvéderm Ultra®

Used to restore a smooth appearance to the face by injecting the gel to fill areas of severe wrinkles and folds.

Juvéderm Ultra Plus®

Can be used as a hand rejuvenation option or to sculpt facial contours.

Juvéderm Procedure

During your Juvéderm® treatment, your product of choice will be carefully injected using a small, fine syringe. Juvéderm® products also contain a small amount of lidocaine, which will help to minimize any discomfort you may feel during the treatment. The entire treatment process usually takes between 15-30 minutes to complete.
