Cosmetic Surgery Arlington Virginia - JUVÉDERMTM
Semi-Permanent Facial Filler
As we age, our skin changes. Over time, the natural volume of youthful skin begins to diminish as wrinkles and folds form. But, with JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel, you don't have to just sit back and let it happen! Recently approved by the FDA, JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is a "next-generation" dermal filler. The smooth consistency gel helps to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (nasolabial folds - the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth).
JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. Your healthcare professional eases JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel under the skin to provide a smooth, natural look and feel - so everyone will notice (but no one will know)! In fact, studies show superior results of JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel compared to a collagen-based dermal filler.* And, almost 90% of all study volunteers who were treated with both JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel and another dermal filler* preferred JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel! In addition, JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that is proven to be safe and effective for persons of color.
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers like JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel offer a safe and effective nonsurgical option for smoothing facial wrinkles and folds. In fact, they are the fastest growing nonsurgical aesthetic procedure in the United States according to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. But all dermal fillers are not the same!
If you're interested in being treated with this nonsurgical physician-administered treatment option, you should know the advantages of choosing JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel:
- A "next-generation" filler: JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is a "next-generation" non-animal dermal filler that is made from hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance that plays a vital role in hydrating your skin and replenishing its natural volume. No allergy skin tests are needed prior to receiving treatment.
- Advanced technology for long-lasting results: JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel employs its unique manufacturing process to provide the highest concentration of cross-linked hyaluronic acid of any currently available hyaluronic acid dermal filler for long-lasting results. This advanced manufacturing process also creates a smooth consistency gel that flows consistently and easily into the skin and provides a smooth, natural look and feel. JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is the only filler available with this smooth consistency gel formulation - other existing hyaluronic acid fillers are made of granular consistency gels.
- Proven safety and effectiveness: JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is the first FDA-approved hyaluronic acid dermal filler that has demonstrated its safety and effectiveness in persons of color.
- Quick and easy procedure: JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is a nonsurgical physician-administered treatment that requires no allergy skin test and minimal recovery or downtime.
- Personalized treatment: JUVÉDERMTM Injectable Gel is available in two formulations - JUVÉDERMTM Ultra for versatility in contouring and volumizing facial wrinkles and folds, and JUVÉDERMTM Ultra Plus, a more robust formulation for volumizing and correcting deeper folds and wrinkles. This allows Dr. Howard to tailor treatment to meet your unique needs.
