What Are the Differences Between Juvederm and Other Fillers?

At Steele Creek Dermatology in Charlotte, NC, we offer dermal fillers from the Charlotte JUVEDERM Collection. This family of fillers is perfect for patients looking for a way to safely and naturally enhance facial features, correct volume loss, and reverse aging. Our injectors are skilled in injecting these fillers and will ensure that your customized treatment plan delivers the best and most natural results.

What Are the Differences Between Charlotte JUVEDERM and Other Fillers?

Many different dermal fillers can enhance the features and restore volume below the skin’s surface, but the Charlotte JUVEDERM fillers are different from these other options for many reasons. First, these fillers are made by the same company that created BOTOX, CoolSculpting, SkinMedica, and other reputable and effective devices, treatments, and product lines. This versatile line is designed to treat the most common signs of aging in multiple facial areas and can enhance several facial features.

Treatments are also comfortable, thanks to the inclusion of lidocaine in each of the filler formulas. Lidocaine is a numbing agent that promotes a comfortable injection process and helps with recovery after treatment is over. These fillers are also made with synthetic hyaluronic acid particles that mimic the ones your body produces naturally. The crystal clear gel formula in each filler is completely smooth and integrates well with the skin’s tissue, so the results look uniform and natural once injected.

What Areas Does It Treat?

One of the benefits of the JUVÉDERM Collection is that it includes fillers designed to treat virtually every area of the lower and middle half of the face. We can create treatment plans to enhance the cheeks, the lips, the chin, and the jawline. We can also use these fillers to smooth smile lines around the mouth and correct aging-related volume loss in the middle and lower half of the face.

The Lips

Patients who want to augment their lips or correct age-related volume loss and lip thinning can benefit from one of the fillers from this collection. JUVÉDERM has a carefully formulated lip filler made with small-sized hyaluronic acid particles to naturally enhance the lips for subtle results. Lip fillers from this collection smooth perioral lines around the mouth, which are very difficult to treat with topical products.

The Cheeks

Patients who want to enhance their cheeks to achieve a more sculpted appearance or correct flattening cheeks resulting from volume loss can benefit from a cheek filler from this collection. This cheek filler is one of the longest-lasting dermal fillers available for cosmetic use and will help patients achieve a contoured and youthful appearance for up to two years.

The Chin

Those who want to enhance their chin profile and improve facial aesthetics will benefit from a dermal filler from this collection designed to do so. By enhancing the chin, patients can achieve a more proportional and aesthetic appearance while also maximizing the results of other injectables from this collection. Chin filler results will last up to one year after injections.

The Jawline

Patients who want a more defined and sculpted jawline can benefit from a filler from this collection designed to restore structure and definition to this area. After treatment, results last up to one year.

Smile Lines

Smile lines form as your skin loses elasticity and your body produces less collagen and hyaluronic acid. We can use a filler from this collection to naturally smooth smile lines around the mouth, including nasolabial folds and marionette lines, by injecting natural-looking volume back into the area. After an initial treatment, results last 12 to 18 months.

Is There Downtime?

You won’t have to plan around any downtime after dermal filler injections. You will need to avoid certain activities and environments to ensure you achieve the best result and allow the injection sites to heal and the filler settle. Your injector will provide you with complete aftercare instructions so that you know how to care for your skin and achieve the best results.

Who Are They Right For?

Patients who want to augment their lips or enhance their cheeks, chin, or jawline make good candidates for the JUVÉDERM Collection fillers. They can also meet the needs of patients who want to smooth smile lines, reverse aging, and inject natural-looking volume back into their skin to achieve the most natural-looking appearance. They’re an effective choice for patients who want a non-surgical and long-lasting solution for aging and facial enhancement.

Some patients may not qualify for treatment for safety reasons, including pregnant or nursing women, patients under the age of 18, and those with allergies to the filler ingredients.
