The ideal candidates for JUVÉDERM injectable treatments are men or women who have facial wrinkles and lines they want to fix. It can also help if you have age-related volume loss or naturally thin lips and/or cheeks. JUVÉDERM dermal filler injections at FMW MedSpa are fantastic if you want to refresh the appearance of your face without the expense and recovery of facial cosmetic surgery (like brow lifts, eyelid lifts, facelifts, or facial implants).

JUVÉDERM treatments generally only last about 15 – 30 minutes, based on the number of areas being corrected. Your skin will be cleaned and injection spots will be marked. To decrease discomfort during the procedure, JUVÉDERM dermal fillers contain lidocaine (a local anesthetic). Following your treatment, you can go back to your normal routine; however, strenuous activity, including exercise, should be skipped for at least 24 hours. You should be cautious to not put your hands on your face immediately after your JUVÉDERM injections to prevent moving the gel into other areas.

You usually experience a visible improvement immediately following your JUVÉDERM injection, but you may also see mild swelling or bruising in the injected areas of the face for approximately 7 – 10 days. The results of JUVÉDERM injections typically are visible for as long as one year; several patients find that their improvements last over a year after 2 – 3 years of treatments. Talk to our team about when to book a touch-up or full injection session at FMW MedSpa to keep your results.

How much does JUVÉDERM cost?
The price of JUVÉDERM will be dependent on the amount of filler that is needed to achieve your cosmetic goals. Prior to your injection treatment, a customized treatment plan will be developed to fit your goals and budget. After this, your injector will estimate costs and discuss payment options.

Are JUVÉDERM injections painful?
While 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 pain. Following the treatment, you may feel mild to moderate bruising and swelling that should subside within a week, depending on the treatment area. You should contact our office if you experience any severe pain or signs of an infection after your treatment.

What is the difference between a wrinkle filler and a relaxer?
Relaxers and fillers address wrinkles throughout the face but in different ways. Injectable wrinkle relaxers, such as BOTOX, correct dynamic wrinkles created by repetitive muscle contractions. JUVÉDERM is an injectable dermal filler that improves static wrinkles by adding volume. JUVÉDERM is designed to correct mild to moderate lines and wrinkles or to add volume to your lips and cheeks.

What results can I expect?
You may need to wait a few days to view the full improvements from your treatment. Usually, it takes only one treatment appointment to reach your goals. However, you may make a follow-up appointment if you want to intensify your results.

How long do results typically last?
Your results from one JUVÉDERM treatment may last up to two years. This can vary, depending on what formula is used and where it was injected. The longevity of results will depend on the speed at which your body breaks down the formula.
