Correct the effects of aging with the Juvéderm family of injectable dermal fillers. From treating wrinkles and lines to creating lips that are plump and full, Juvéderm injectable wrinkle treatments at the private practice of Dr. Troy Gombert in Chandler, AZ provide attractive results that look natural. Juvéderm fillers may be performed with only one formula, multiple formulas, or along with other noninvasive procedures to achieve your concerns and goals. Juvéderm treatments are formulated with synthetic HA (hyaluronic acid) that is meant to boost the body's natural levels of collagen and HA for healthy, supple skin. Talk to Dr. Gombert about refreshing your face or complementing your dental work without the expense and time of cosmetic surgery with the Juvéderm collection of injectable dermal treatments.

• Juvéderm Vollure and XC fill medium or deep lines throughout the face, such as nasolabial folds and other lines around the nose and mouth. The results on average are visible for around a year.
• Juvéderm Volbella and Ultra XC add lift to the lower lip, upper lip, or the entire mouth while also reducing the look of fine lines in the lips. The improvements typically are visible for up to a year.
• Juvéderm Voluma enhances the shape of the cheeks to reverse volume loss in the mid-face.

The best candidates for Juvéderm injectable treatments are women and men who have facial wrinkles and lines they would like to improve. It may also be beneficial if you have age-related volume loss or naturally thin cheeks or lips. Juvéderm wrinkle filler injections at our dental practice are fantastic if you are looking to refresh the appearance of your face while avoiding the expense and recovery of cosmetic surgery (like eyelid lifts, brow lifts, facelifts, or facial implants). Injectable fillers like Juvederm and BOTOX complement dental procedures to help your smile look more radiant overall.

Juvéderm treatments commonly only last around 15 – 30 minutes, based on how many areas are being addressed. Your skin will be cleaned, then the injection sites will be selected and marked. To decrease discomfort throughout the procedure, Juvéderm formulas contain a local anesthetic (lidocaine). Following your procedure, you may continue your normal routine; however, strenuous activity such as exercise should be skipped for at least a day. You need to be cautious to not put your hands on your face immediately after your Juvéderm injections to prevent pushing the gel into unwanted areas.

You usually see a visible enhancement immediately following your Juvéderm injection, but you could also have light bruising or swelling in the injected areas of the face for around 7 – 10 days. The results of Juvéderm treatments typically can be seen for as long as a year; several patients notice that their improvements last over a year after 2 – 3 years of injections. Talk to Dr. Gombert about how soon to schedule your next injection session to sustain your results.

How much does JUVÉDERM cost?
Juvéderm costs will vary depending on how much filler is necessary for the treatment area. Before your injection treatment, a customized treatment plan will be developed to fit your goals and budget. After this, your injector can discuss cost estimates and payment options.

Are JUVÉDERM injections painful?
Though most patients do not think it's needed, a local anesthetic can be applied to the treatment site before injection if you're worried about any discomfort. After the treatment, you may feel some slight bruising and swelling that should be gone in 5 – 7 days, depending on the treatment area. You should contact our office if you experience severe pain or signs of an infection following your Juvéderm treatment.

What is the difference between a wrinkle filler and a relaxer?
Injectable fillers and relaxers address facial wrinkles, but they take different approaches. Injectable wrinkle relaxers correct dynamic wrinkles caused by frequent muscle contractions. An injectable wrinkle filler, like Juvéderm, improves static wrinkles by increasing volume. Juvéderm is ideal for treating mild to moderate wrinkles or reversing volume loss in your lips and cheeks.

What results can I expect?
You may need to wait several days to see the full results of your treatment. Typically, it only takes one appointment to achieve your goals. However, you can schedule another appointment if you would like to intensify your results.

How long do results typically last?
The effects of a Juvéderm injection can last up to two years. This will vary depending on which formula is selected and where it was injected. The longevity of results can also depend on how fast your body breaks down the product.
