NON-SURGICAL REJUVENATION WITH DERMAL FILLERS

One of our favorite treatments for stubborn wrinkles is an injectable dermal filler called Juvéderm. With a 15-minute treatment and no downtime, you can restore a refreshed and revitalized facial appearance.

THE JUVÉDERM INJECTABLE GEL PROCEDURE
The body produces a compound known as hyaluronic acid to help keep skin cells hydrated and nourished. As we age, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases and the skin cells receive less moisture. As a result, wrinkles and deep creases are more likely to form.
JUVÉDERM Injectable Gel seeks to replenish the supply of this vital compound by injecting a purified form of hyaluronic acid directly into the targeted treatment areas.
When injected into wrinkles and facial folds, the hyaluronic acid attracts water molecules that provide volume and support to sagging skin, filling in deep creases and folds and smoothing wrinkles. JUVÉDERM can also enhance the shape of cheeks, lips, and other facial contours.

JUVÉDERM BENEFITS
The benefits of JUVÉDERM Injectable Gel include plumper lips and/or younger, smoother, and healthier looking skin. Results are longer-lasting than other types of dermal fillers. Most patients can experience the benefits for six to nine months, and sometimes results may last for more than a year.

RECOVERY FROM JUVÉDERM
JUVÉDERM requires little-to-no downtime; patients may be able to return to their normal activities right away. It’s necessary to follow some precautions for a couple of weeks after treatment, such as avoiding strenuous exercise and exposure to extreme temperatures.
We’ll provide detailed recovery instructions, but overall, most patients receive treatment and return to their normal activities almost immediately.

The makers of JUVÉDERM have recognized him for his skill and results; Allergan, Inc. has chosen him to train other doctors on how to perform the treatment.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
CAN I PAIR JUVÉDERM WITH BOTOX®?
Juvéderm combines beautifully with other injectable treatments like Botox. Neuromodulators like Botox smooth expression lines, while fillers can plump, smooth, and enhance other areas of the face.
HOW MANY INJECTIONS WILL I RECEIVE DURING TREATMENT?
Most patients receive several small injections as part of their Juvéderm treatment. The total number of injections received will depend on the areas receiving treatment.
IS JUVÉDERM PAINFUL?
Most patients report minimal discomfort from Juvéderm injections, because lidocaine is part of its formula. If you’re concerned, let Dr. Light know. We may be able to use additional topical anesthetic to numb your skin before treatment.
HOW LONG WILL MY RESULTS LAST?
Results typically last about six months. We can maintain your newly refreshed look with touch-up injections performed a few times each year.
HOW MUCH DOES JUVÉDERM COST IN ALABAMA?
The cost of your treatment will depend on the amount of product used. Juvéderm prices are per syringe. We can provide an estimate of your total cost before treatment.
