JUVÉDERM®

It is the latest dermal filler advance from Allergan, makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic. It is a 'next generation' smooth gel, non-animal dermal filler offering a natural look/feel and long-lasting results for up to six months or longer.

JUVÉDERM® dermal filler lasts long because it's the only dermal filler currently available with the highest concentration of hyaluronic acid and a special formulation process. This process creates a smooth gel that flows easily into the skin, creating smooth, natural looks.


Do I need to have an allergy test before I have my JUVÉDERM® treatment?
NO. With a simple injection of JUVÉDERM® without any preliminary test, minor imperfections and signs of ageing are softened very evenly.


Where can JUVÉDERM® be used?
JUVÉDERM® fills nasal furrows and oral commissures or smoothes moderate or superficial wrinkles. Acting very naturally but not irreversibly, your lips regain their sensuality and your face its smooth curves.

JUVÉDERM® is also an excellent volume enhancer which when injected into the cheeks will give you back your good looks.

JUVÉDERM® allows immediate treatment. A touch-up after a few weeks helps to prolong the result.


How long will JUVÉDERM® last?
The effects of JUVÉDERM® usually last 9 months. This effect varies depending on the types of skin, areas, amounts injected and the injection technique. In some cases, the effect may last for up to one year.

The average life of JUVÉDERM® in the lips is 6 months because of the high vascularisation of the lips.
