If you would like to refresh your appearance with dermal filler, JUVÉDERM™ may be for you. At our Philadelphia-area cosmetic surgery practice, we offer a variety of dermal fillers and injectables to meet the needs of our patients, as many men and women don't require surgical treatment to satisfy their wishes. With JUVÉDERM™, patients can see dramatic results immediately, and the procedure is quick and nearly pain-free. If you are interested in learning more about dermal filler, we would be happy to help. To schedule a consultation with our team of medical professionals regarding JUVÉDERM™, contact our Philadelphia-area plastic surgery office today.
JUVÉDERM™ is gel filler that is made from naturally occurring hyaluronic acid (HA). Because it is manufactured from a substance found in the human body, there is no risk of rejection or allergic reaction, making it a safe alternative to more invasive surgical treatment options. For the comfort of the patient, JUVÉDERM™ is infused with a mild anesthetic called lidocaine to ease any discomfort or pain that may arise from the injection process. JUVÉDERM™ is unique in that regard, making it a great option for men and women who are hesitant to undergo injection treatment because of sensitivity to needles.
Age and sun exposure can break down the body's natural HA, resulting in a degradation of skin structure and volume. With JUVÉDERM™, the HA in the body is replaced, restoring volume and structure, and reducing or eliminating the appearance of wrinkles, laugh lines, frown lines, marionette lines, and nasolabial folds around the nose. Because the dermal filler is injected directly into the skin, the results are evident immediately after treatment. Over time, the dermal filler will be harmlessly absorbed into the body, at which point further treatment may be required to maintain the desired appearance. The duration of the results will depend on numerous factors, but typically patients can expect smoother skin for up to one year.
Dermal filler safely adds volume to the skin - filling in lines and wrinkles - and it can have a tremendous impact on a person's appearance. If you are interested in turning back the aging process or you would like to have a smoother, more uniform appearance, JUVÉDERM™ can provide the results you are seeking. With an improved self-image, our patients have increased confidence and self-esteem, and these traits play a role throughout their lives, from their interactions with loved ones and co-workers to the way they carry themselves. The benefits of JUVÉDERM™ are not only physical, but mental as well.
Non-invasive, completely safe, quick, and effective, JUVÉDERM™ is an appropriate treatment for individuals from all walks of life. If you're pressed for time, are hesitant to undergo surgery, or have rather superficial wrinkle lines that can be easily addressed, JUVÉDERM™ is an ideal treatment. A typical procedure can be performed in 10 minutes or less (individuals can get it done on their lunch break or on a weekend before meeting friends), and there is no downtime or recovery required. If you are 18 years of age of older, JUVÉDERM™ may help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
Our team, led by Dr. Paul Glat, would be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding JUVÉDERM™. If you live in the Philadelphia area, we invite you to contact our Bala Cynwyd office today to schedule a free consultation.
