Juvederm

What is Juvederm?

Juvederm is a hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler developed by Allergan, the global pharmaceutical leader behind Botox. It is specifically designed to:

• Restore facial volume loss due to ageing
• Smooth out wrinkles and fine lines
• Enhance facial contours, such as the cheeks, chin, and jawline
• Hydrate and plump the skin for a youthful glow

Juvederm fillers are formulated using Vycross® and Hylacross® technologies, ensuring a smooth, natural texture that integrates seamlessly into the skin for long-lasting results.

How Does Juvederm Work?

Juvederm fillers work by injecting a smooth gel beneath the skin to:

• Plump and fill deep wrinkles (e.g., nasolabial folds, marionette lines)
• Define and contour the cheeks, jawline, and chin
• Add volume to lips for a fuller, more youthful look
• Replenish moisture and hydration, giving the skin a radiant, refreshed appearance

The hyaluronic acid in Juvederm attracts and retains moisture, keeping the skin hydrated and voluminous while stimulating collagen production for long-term skin improvement.
