Plump and voluminous facial features can help you appear refreshed and youthful, but the aging process can result in hollow cheeks, thin lips, unwanted fine lines, and wrinkles. If you want a long-lasting remedy to achieve voluminous lips, smooth wrinkles, or renew your cheeks or firm your chin and jaw, dermal fillers could be right for you!
What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers, also known as facial fillers, are injectables that are typically made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid naturally occurs in the body and has many benefits, such as making the skin more supple, helping wounds heal faster, and promoting collagen production. When we inject them into areas of the face such as the cheeks, lips, and jawline, dermal fillers can temporarily add volume to these areas and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.
At Renew MD, we provide the Juvederm® collection of dermal fillers since the thickness of the formula is customizable and suitable for a wide variety of uses. Thicker formulas can be used for facial structure or have dramatic results for lips, while thinner formulas have more subtle results. Juvederm® dermal fillers are one of the most well-renowned collections of fillers in the cosmetic industry.
What to Expect After Dermal Fillers
Treatment with Juvederm® dermal fillers is quick and typically takes 45 minutes. There is no downtime associated with dermal fillers, so you can expect to return to your daily routine after treatment. It is common to experience swelling or bruising at the injection site, which should subside two to three days after treatment.
You should not participate in strenuous exercise 24 to 48 hours after dermal fillers and try to sleep with your head elevated. Staying hydrated and avoiding excess salt may also be beneficial.
Benefits of Juvederm® Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers can provide immediate and natural-looking results. Dermal fillers are an excellent option for those looking to bring back or add volume and plumpness to areas of the face. Some of the benefits of dermal fillers can include:
- Creating plump, smooth lips
- Adding or restoring volume to areas of the face
- Improving symmetry
- Defining facial features
- Smoothing wrinkles and fine lines
How Long Do Juvederm® Dermal Fillers Last?
The longevity of your results will depend on the type of Juvederm® filler you receive. Each filler in the Juvederm® collection provides excellent results that are long-lasting but not permanent. On average, thinner formulas can last six to twelve months, while thicker formulas can last eighteen months to two years.
